    I told you what I think. Anything in life is possible. From self-deception, to self-deprecation.

    Did Jesus remove all the sin from the world?

    A lot of people might not know this, but "Jesus" isn’t actually the original name of the Son of God—it’s a translation from the Hebrew name "Yeshua." That’s the name He would have been called by those who knew Him during His life on earth. ❤️ Yeshua was born to the virgin Mary, lived a life...

    I have a question for you. What is the other Jesus person you continue to speak about. Tell me more about him. You know there are many Hispanics named Jesus.

    Crucifixion Question

    Ps95, I like to think of our spiritual journey as growing from childhood into maturity. Over time, we develop and strengthen our inner, spiritual self, learning and growing closer to God. When someone passes away, I believe they’re lovingly given a new "mansion"—a spiritual home prepared by...

    Crucifixion Question

    I would believe faithfully so. Though most do not. It's exactly what I had shared with Finnelygraves. It is indeed seen spiritually, through being born again in Yeshua. Can I explain it? Probably not all that well other than that nutshell comment.

    Why legalism is not good, and why context matters.

    Christian legalism is a term used to describe a belief system or practice within Christianity where salvation and spiritual standing before God are perceived as achievable through strict adherence to rules and regulations, often exceeding or distorting biblical teachings. It's characterized by a...

    Crucifixion Question

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It’s about what was lost when Adam and Eve fell in the Garden—intimacy with God, peace, and the original design for humanity. But God, in His wisdom, chose a people through whom He would carry out His plan of restoration. And from that chosen nation came...

    Why legalism is not good, and why context matters.

    One thing most of us can agree on—the Bible is a wonderful and helpful guide. It’s full of wisdom that can deepen our understanding of the Old Testament and the teachings of the apostles. Exploring what’s written in those pages is a truly meaningful journey. And when you dig in, something...

    Did Jesus remove all the sin from the world?

    1 Corinthians 1:30 It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption.

    Did Jesus remove all the sin from the world?

    @Lizbeth I'm truly grateful that we're aligned in spirit, even if our interpretations of Scripture differ at times. It’s a blessing to be able to reference, read, and study the Word together—and to engage in meaningful dialogue that helps us better understand its message. While Scripture...

    Don’t know. We on the same page then. I can do that. It does make mistakes.

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Christ’s Perfection in Us Jesus embodies the perfection that dwells within those who place their faith in Him. His righteousness manifests in the heart of anyone who abides in Him, for apart from Him, we are incapable of accomplishing anything meaningful. Scripture affirms this truth. As a...

    RedLetter Christians

    If you're truly seeking a spiritual journey, start by reading the Bible—chapter by chapter, verse by verse—aloud to yourself. Just one hour a day can take you remarkably far. Personally, I’ve spent time reading the Gospels, and what stands out to me is the real, human experience of those living...

    RedLetter Christians

    Yesterday, I shared with my brother, @Lambano, a reflection that’s deeply personal to me. Faith is not about conformity—it's about genuine relationship, personal revelation, and spiritual authenticity. Just a sidenote: Spiritual authenticity refers to living in alignment with one's true...

    Did Jesus remove all the sin from the world?

    Hey @ Behold, Paul expressed a heartfelt desire to the believers in Philippi, writing: “And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment.” (Philippians 1:9) I find great joy in singing to the Lord when I’m feeling well—it’s a deeply life-giving...

    Did Jesus remove all the sin from the world?

    Here you go Lizbeth, Some have suggested that advocating a reverent fear of the Lord and a deep engagement with scripture may indicate insecurity or an imbalanced relationship with God—prioritizing scripture over God Himself. This creates a false dichotomy and makes unwarranted assumptions...
