I know when I give all when God responds and gives me a blessing from His hand. How did Abel know his sacrifice was received? How did Cain know his was not received?

in other words...positional theology!!!

How does this relationship work different than any other religion? All is the amount we give in order to get anything from God. Holding nothing back!!! We have many opportunities throughout our lives to give all...but if we never do then no transaction with God has actually taken place. As...

in which power?

in order to have more sin...or more of Christ?

I don't believe in the type of grace you have been taught. God is not like men that cover things up. The light exposes...it is darkness that covers things up. I think you may not understand light.

A balanced view of the bible sees that God is BOTH good AND severe in His judgments. Have Christians gone beyond the reach of God's severity and can now only enjoy His goodness? Well this position is foolishness. Rom 11:20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by...

Righteousness begins with honesty. How many Christians are taught (or untaught) to think that honesty must be left behind in order to take hold of "eternal truths"?

The great delusion consists of subverting the truth into a lie...and a lie into the truth. Here is an article on THE POSITIONAL PLATFORM that seeks to redefine Christianity from a more human perspective. Even the first line is the exact opposite of the truth...most actually believe the lies...

Of course! We don't fill out a questionnaire to enter the kingdom. We are judged by our doings and our words.
