    Jesus and Commands

    ....while this is true..who wanted to make Christianity a state religion? The problem is that once the spiritual Christians were fed to the lions...the religious ones, who were waiting in the wings....took over and accepted the praises of men. Namely, Constantine.

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    And yet they sang it.

    Against all odds

    That's because you were being indoctrinated into the "dark side" of Christianity. So there is hope for you. :) All the brothers in Christ hate the false posturing that causes believers to judge others.

    Do you know any of them?

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    What you are missing the the breadth of God. I will not question your depth perception as of yet. Do you know what I mean by breadth? (width) Eph. 3:16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17that...

    Basically...yes! :)

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    2 Peter 1:5 But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, 6 to knowledge self-control, to self-control, perseverance, to perseverance godliness, 7 to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. 8 For if these things are...

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    Most people in the world are doing absolutely nothing to add to the "finished work" of the cross. The vast majority are not interested in trying to do anything to be saved. Does that mean they are all really Christians?

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    How many times does it say....seek Me and live?

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    Jesus Christ is real. As such we can actually go to Him just like we read in the bible. When we do this...miraculous things happen. But what I say many believers settling for is a scheme that is made from badly interpreted verses....that avoid an encounter with Jesus. They call this kind of...

    Exactly! :)

    The Righteousness of God

    His righteousness is a gift to us. But it is also a responsibility. His righteousness is the truth. But we can hold onto His righteousness in unrighteousness. We can hold on to the truth in unrighteousness. Rom. 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and...

    The Righteousness of God

    The righteousness of God is a higher form of righteousness to the righteousness of men. They are related...but one is weak and the other is strong. One is temporal and the other is eternal. But let's not be deceived. If you are faithful in little then you are also faithful in much. So then it...

    The Righteousness of God

    This is a very misunderstood topic. The righteousness of God has been lowered into something far less than miraculous and divine in our time. But let's give ourselves a chance to get things right. I would like to begin by listing a few examples of the righteousness of God in action...from the...

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    You have to be careful not to lower the righteousness of God to what humans can do. Many do that. Don't fall into their pit. If a person can do it in human strength...then it is NOT God's righteousness. Lots of people do good works. But the works prepared in advance only empowered spiritual...

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    People love Jesus...just not Christians so much. Why are people so picky about being loved? Go figure! ;)

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    Actually what you have picked up on is....there is only one way...and that is through our religious hoop. We call the hoop Christ...but that is a sentimental name given to a religious viewpoint we have elevated to be salvific. It is certainly not the Jesus of the bible.

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    That's not true either. The Doobie brothers did a song called "Jesus is just all right". That's proof right there! :)
