Scripture is very clear that sin is serious, yes sin kills. But there is also a distinction in the Bible between eternal reconciliation we have in Christ and the fellowship we walk in daily. Isaiah 59: 2 says, “your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his...

The Bible never contrasts grace with repentance or confession. Grace makes confession possible because the blood of Jesus has already paid the price. John says, “And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous” (1 John 2:1). His sacrifice was once for all...

No, it is not because I am not hearing you, it is because you are not saying what the bible teaches and there for I don't believe it. What you wrote overlooks a plain truth of Scripture. The Bible does not teach that fellowship with God is never broken by sin. In fact, it says the exact...

That is exactly what the Bible says will happen when false teachers enter the picture. “God is not the author of confusion” (1 Corinthians 14:33). Confusion is the result when many teach what God did not say. Scripture even warns “There shall be false teachers among you” that “privily shall...

You asked why, if being born again defines a Christian, the apostles were not called “Christians” for years. Scripture is clear that new birth, not a label, is what makes someone belong to God. Jesus said, “Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3). Those who...

So, what am I not hearing?

President Trump calls out Democrats who are setting loose dangerous savages on our streets. He called out city leaders in Charlotte who defended a monster who killed a young lady on a train.

Let me direct you to some passages that will explode full preterism and keep your feet on the ground of truth. These are the passages that teach us that, while part of prophecy is fulfilled, there is still a great deal that has not been fulfilled yet and is still to be looked for at the return...

The Bible actually answers Ernie’s question very plainly. A Christian is not someone with a label, an opinion, or based on how the word developed over church history. A Christian is someone who has been born again by faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus said, “Except a man be born again, he cannot see...

Yes, everyone is required to obey God. That is why the Bible says, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). This is true for every man, woman, and child, both saved and unsaved. They are all under God's law, and for that reason they are all guilty in His sight...

Fellowship with God is not about if I feel something or sense something in my heart, it is about if I am walking in the light of His Word. The Bible says, “If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth” (1 John 1:6). That means fellowship is...

No, you are obscuring what Scripture makes abundantly clear. Paul was not teaching we should look the other way when it comes to sin or that confession is somehow not needed. He was simply saying he was not living under man’s judgment or even resting in his own evaluation of himself. He knew...

You’re missing the distinction Scripture makes between relationship and fellowship. David was still the child of God when he sinned, but he didn’t fellowship with God until he confessed his sin and experienced misery as a result. That principle is still in place. You quoted 2 Peter 1:3–4 but do...

This is a really good question and gets to the heart of what the Bible says. I am not saying that all of my sins are always apparent to me, but I do know this: the Holy Spirit will put it on my heart, He is not shy about convicting me. Jesus said the Spirit “will reprove the world of sin, and of...

You ask: “Does man lose his free will at salvation?” No, it doesn’t take away free will. Salvation works in one’s heart. Ezekiel 36: 26–27 writes that God grants a new heart and puts His Spirit within a person so that they walk in His statutes. Paul confirms that it is God which “worketh in you...

You accuse me of having a comprehension issue, but the real issue is that you’re preaching a false gospel. The Bible says confession and belief bring salvation now (Romans 10:9–10), not after death. Jesus said, “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life” (John 3:36). That’s present...

You’re correct, Paul did indeed talk about “another Jesus” (2 Corinthians 11:4). The true Christ never tolerates sin, He transforms lives. “If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature” (2 Corinthians 5:17). This is why genuine faith is always accompanied by obedience, and a “jesus” who allows...

You're perverting Scripture. "They that take the sword shall perish with the sword" (Matthew 26: 52) was Jesus correcting Peter for attempting to fight against the cross, not prohibiting the defense of one's life. Luke 22: 36, Nehemiah 4:17–18, Exodus 22:2 all teach that God commands defense...

I addressed this already, so rather than re-directing back to this thread and asking the same question, please read what I wrote. Baptism is NOT a Jewish ritual, it is a command of Christ. "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them..." (Matt 28: 19) Gentiles were baptized in Acts...

To clarify what the bible teaches and I believe because the bible teaches it. Scripture is clear to distinguish between salvation and fellowship. Repentance unto life is a one-time event of turning to God in faith through Jesus Christ. Jesus said, “Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish”...
