    The Decoy Gospel

    People put a great emphasis on correct belief. Are we going to be judged by filling out a questionnaire that tests our beliefs? Or will we be judged by what we thought, spoke and acted upon? So we will be judged by our behaviour. So what do our beliefs produce in us? What does our doctrine make...

    The Twins

    As a false teacher it is your right to ignore truth and scriptures at every turn. You are permitted to twist meanings, attack believers in truth as legalists and basically try to overthrow anything to do with God...for the satisfaction of your own ego. I know you are unteachable. But I write...

    The Twins

    You are making your opinion to be above God's AND Paul's...who you clearly twist the words of. But notice what Paul says about righteousness and the Old Testament. 2 Tim.3:16] All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for...

    Lamentations 4:6 6 For the punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the punishment of the sin of Sodom, that was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands stayed on her.

    The Twins

    What God sees as righteousness in us is that we be real...honest. And fewer and fewer Christians are able to be honest with themselves, others or God. Most believers now have been programmed to hide themselves behind various verses that they interpret to mean that the ego is saved IN sin. To...

    The Decoy Gospel

    Big church: artificial Organic church: natural Real church: spiritual A decoy gospel is superficial and very popular...easy to accept and teach as people are already self-centered. So they get the pitch. But for a real spiritual church to be established the true gospel according to depth and...

    The Twins

    Gnosticism 101 There is no practice of the truth...just a pseudo-spiritual idea of having a right belief.

    The Twins

    Sure. But do you? Are you sure you have not downgraded the gospel to something a person can do without a full surrender and entering in at the narrow door? The crucified walk is by resurrection life. Very very few know that walk...especially in these times of a false gospel that uses the words...

    The Twins

    Why can't you see that access is not the same as having? A world of difference! There are going to be great shocks on judgment day. Jesus died for the sins of the whole world. You are not understanding God's ways.

    The Twins

    God ALWAYS was merciful towards sinners. Jesus died for the sins of the whole world...not just they who say they selfishly claim the sacrifice for themselves. That is to be a thief. It is the very opposite of humility and what God justifies. But rich spoiled Westerners see everything for...

    The Twins

    You are vastly miscalculating God's ways and His judgments. You are as blind as the Jews were in the OT. You are thinking that somehow God favours Gentiles over Jews by giving them a license to sin...and all is well. So you are completely negating God's voice, His words, His fear, His...

    The Decoy Gospel

    There is a reasoning according to the soul. And there a spiritual understanding. There is the mind of the human....and the mind of Christ. The word of God divides between these two ways of hearing. The decoy gospel appeals to the souls of men...at the level of the human intellect. But God has...

    The Decoy Gospel

    We dishonour God by limiting what we think He can do. Or we can honour Him by believing Him to be all-powerful and sovereign. In these perilous times many believers walk in unbelief. Many have believed a lie...either a whole lie or a convenient half-truth. With God are not ALL things possible...

    The Decoy Gospel

    Because of indoctrination and the acceptance of an ideological filter that the human mind latches onto...the bible is clearly NOT ENOUGH to dislodge the lie and set people free in many cases. Even apart from being baptized in the Spirit to experience the presence of God in reality ...we need...

    The Decoy Gospel

    From any kind of distance a decoy looks like the real deal. But for a duck to be a duck it needs to quack like a duck! :) A decoy is used in spiritual terms to hunt for souls....to put people in bondage. While promising them life they bring death. And many believers are victims of a decoy that...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    All theoretical. And nonsensical. Just more lack of understanding using words you don't know about in reality. The proof of abiding in Christ is that we walk above sin...in the Spirit. NO sin is possible. In Him is NO sin. Abide in Him and you don't sin. You need to come OUT from Him to indulge...

    Trainspotting?

    Who were the Early Church Fathers after the Apostles?

    After the time of the apostles was the time of the bishops. Two of which were known to be disciples of John. Polycarp of Smyrna....and Ignatius of Antioch. Clement was bishop of Rome at that time too. Ignatius was bishop before 100 AD and was appointed by John. What is sadly lacking is the...

    A Great sinner

    It's sounds like you are finished all right. You are done. And you have completely missed Paul's message.
