For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. Was Jesus made by God a...

I believe in being doctrinally correct as much as possible with the Bible. That includes not using words not in the Bible. I don't read the word 'sinless' in the Bible. However, the word used Biblically, that can be translated sinless, speaks of not now sinning, but also of having never sinned...

Growing in Christ is growing in His purity of heart and life. Growing in sin to become less sinful, is not the pure growth of Christ in us. Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed...

For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,) But we will give...

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins...

It's one thing to differ on certain details of the gospel of Jesus Christ, but to preach a Christ that is blind?? This is just beyond sense and an open attack on the true God Jesus Christ. Some Christians, hopefully very few, actually teach that God cannot now see their sinning, so that He...

We see in some Christian circles that two things are done to minimize or excuse continued unrepented sinning. Some make hell less hot, and some make sinning less devilish. The latter are more popular by calling sins mistakes, accidents, and even bloopers or oopsies. This is a form of calling...

Some Christians preach moral relativism, when it comes to sinning against God. One moral relevance is separating sinning by frequency. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest...

Some sinning Christians, that have not repented of doing dead works, say that repentance unto salvation is only that of the mind. They repent of 'unbelief'. However, we find certain words of the Bible doctrine and prophecy are not believed, much less obeyed. So we see, that repenting of...

Does the unrighteousness of man glorify God? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. Of course not. We glorify God by cleansing our spirit and life through Christ. So we can dispense with the unrighteous version of Romans 3. Paul...

For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. What's the difference between godly sorrow and sorrow of the world? Repentance unto salvation. Godly sorrow is from the heart to repent of doing such things. Sorrow of the world...

Notwithstanding all the little differences and details of Christian argument, I am learning there are 3 great divides in Christianity since Christ first rose from the dead, and His gospel and faith spread through Jewry and the nations around the world. Most Christians that study Bible doctrine...

What I love most about the Bible, is that God seems to always have an easy answer in one or two verses of the Bible, that we Christians tend to make difficulty by overlooking those verse, and trying to argue our teaching from many others, that aren't so clear. And the really surprising thing is...

And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; for in him is no sin. The Bible records followers and disciples of Jesus as being called Christians. It was meant as a slur, like a bunch of little Christs running around always doing good. But God takes it as a title of honor for His...

And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. There is a Christian gospel that separates the soul and spirit from the body at conversion. There's also a New Age religion that...

No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father. This biblical drawing of God to come to Jesus, that we may believe...

There are at least three distantly different Christian gospels, that I see on this site. Here's how I describe them. One is the perfection gospel of beginning newborn all of God and staying that way. Our justification and resurrection from the dead is judged by our works at the end. One is the...

There are Christians that teach what I call, naturalizing sin. Or making sin natural to all men. They do so by two very popular doctrines of their faith, that cannot be altered nor disputed, so that if any Christian does reject any of those two, then we are branded as heretics, even to the...

The Bible gospel promises a perfect new birth in Jesus Christ, with all things in life now being of God. Religions of man promise only a partial rebirth of a better life. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And...

There are some Christians that teach a gospel of mental repentance and conversion only. They say that now we agree with the Bible, that all sinning is indeed against God, and that there is no good to be had in sinning with the devil. While this is certainly true, it does not mean that any...
