I disagree. Paul was sent to the whole world with a new gospel of God's grace founded on the work of His Son on the cross. Today, under grace, the children of God are "IN CHRIST" (the church of His body). There is no physical church involved.. But I am sure you will disagree. Noah was told...

Gee, I made a mistake. Sorry about that. But the fact that both Peter AND STEPHEN were Jews does make a difference.

Dave, Peter was speaking to the Jews since they, the Jews, were the people that received the oracles of God.

When are you going to stop your attacks against other posters as if you are the greatest. Sorry, but you seem to be saying no one sees any value in what I write but the """LIKES""" I get show I am not alone. Notice that I deleted all but your put down. That is because When I saw it I did not...

Were the people of God in the OT saved by grace, IN THE SAME WAY WE ARE TODAY, under Paul's gospel of God's grace? IMHO my answer is NO. They were under God's mercy, not under the gospel of God's grace." Read Psalm 136. The word "mercy" is used 26 times in 26 verses! This is the Biblical...

When you read Mathew 23: 1-35 we see what Jesus said of the religious Pharisees of the time. Fast forward to today and we can see that what Jesus said is true in religions today. Matt 23:1-16 Woe to the Scribes and Pharisees (Mark 12:38-40; Luke 20:45-47) 1 Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes...

Giving a tithe was under the Law of Moses to support the Temple. Today the children of God do not have a physical Temple If a person says we are to give a tithe aren't they preaching Law? I support giving but not by law.

Why is it important to know when the church for this age of grace started? If we think that the church for this age started with Peter on the day of Pentecost then we must consider that Peter was still a Jew, speaking to Jews, going to the Jewish Temple to worship and that he still wanted to...

Written by: Robert Pate- posted by H. Richard This article is probably the most important thing that I have ever learned as a Christian. When I learned the "In Christ" doctrine it made an astounding difference in the way that I viewed the Bible. After I had embraced this doctrine the Bible...

Luke 13:6-9 6 He also spoke this parable: "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none. 7 Then he said to the keeper of his vineyard, 'Look, for three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree and find none. Cut it down; why does...

You reply this to me as if I have said it is plus something. I have never said that anything needed to be added to the power of the cross. Salvation is by placing faith in Jesus' work on the cross plus nothing. Since you go off on a tangent and imply I believe what you say I believe then I...

Thanks for your reply but I disagree with you on this point. I truly believe in the power of the cross and do not place any limit on it. IMHO, it seems to me that your opinion belittles the work of the cross. Please don't take offense. All have a pardon but if a person doesn't believe they...

IMHO, Abel believed God and offered up what God said was acceptable. But Cain refused to believe God and offered up the work of his hands. It is the same all through the Bible. A person must believe God. Jesus (God) sent Paul with a gospel of His grace which says what He did on the cross...

In this age, God's wrath is for those that will not believe in the power of His Son's work on the cross. He can certainly condemn those that refuse His work (pardon) on the cross. If you had left this out it was possible for us to be friends. You said, "Again, your lack of understanding the...

I don't understand your reply. I think I said that anyone who actually puts their faith in the work of God (Jesus) on the cross will be saved Jesus actually paid for the sins of the whole world. If not then God is unfair. That is not just a saying of mine. The scriptures also say it. Jesus...

If a person will see it, the sin of the people is not believing what God says and does. Eve did not believe God, she choose to believe Satan. Cain did not believe God, he choose to believe in his works. The people of Israel did not believe God when He told them to go into the land and He...

IMHO, Jesus' death and shed blood actually did pay for the sins of the whole world (everyone's sins). However most will not believe it, trust in it, have faith in it. Today, under grace the only sin that condemns mankind is the sin of un-belief. The sin of not believing God's work on the...

Here are some more facts that support my opinion. I find them interesting. In the book of James: 1. The word “Law” is found in 18 places 2. The word “grace” is found in 2 places 3. The word “Christ” is found in 2 places 4. The word “Justified” is found in 2 place with the words “by works”...

See these words of mine. YES, the 12 were preaching to the Jews who were under the Law of Moses. Read Acts 21:20. Paul is preaching the grace message that Jesus gave him for the whole world. Today the Law of Moses only condemns those that refuse to accept Jesus' work on the cross as the...

I will not continue with you. You miss quote what I say and I am not going to constantly address your taking what I say and twisting it. Either you can't read or you are disingenuous. I have NEVER said that today people are under the Law of Moses. I have said in all my writing that today the...
