    Assurance of salvation

    The liberty in Christ is not to be freed from the guilt of sins you keep committing. The power of Christ liberates you from the power of sin. The fact that you don't know this liberty shows that you should not be preaching from the bible...as you have not yet become a witness of Christ and HIS...

    The Age of God’s Grace

    You cannot see that it is the power of God that causes men to do the works of God. You just cannot let that idea formulate in your head although it is constantly spoken of in the bible. You see only dead works or else forgiveness for these dead works...but with you it is always death...that is...

    Assurance of salvation

    Mostly accurate...especially the 2 step understanding of being saved FROM and saved TO something. We are not created to be saved, there is the purpose of God to consider. However, the immature in Christ do not have a second chance AFTER death in the second resurrection. The 2nd resurrection is...

    Is Being Catholic And Being Born-Again The Same Thing ?

    But we have not gone through the process to become what they became...at least not very many do. We all start out as raw material in God's hand. The miracle is what He can do to a messed up people! He makes saints out of sinners...spiritual giants out of carnal creatures.

    Is Being Catholic And Being Born-Again The Same Thing ?

    1. Ephesus - Apostolic - Left their first love. 2. Smyrna -Martyrs - Few issues in the martyred church 3. Pergomos - Orthodox - Holds to the doctrine of the Nicolaitans (Feel free to do whatever you want_ 4. Thyatira - Catholic - The spirit of Jezebel is to dominate, kill, and control. 5. Sardis...

    The Bible

    The bible is meant to inspire faith in God. When we experience the same God as those who are writing the bible, then we have benefited by the very purpose of the bible. To Connect us to God.

    We love this show as the best cartoon of all time. Our kids watch this every Christmas as we did when we were young. :)

    Is Being Catholic And Being Born-Again The Same Thing ?

    In stark contrast to these are the disciples who live FROM the Spirit of Christ.

    The Age of God’s Grace

    Who said we are perfected through the flesh? That is your idea. Your idea of humility is to be a failure as well. We bring glory to God as we overcome AND yet remain humble. But you are still missing the power of the gospel. Heb_10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that...

    The Age of God’s Grace

    Here you are beginning to actually make sense! So then does a dead body still sin?

    Is Being Catholic And Being Born-Again The Same Thing ?

    This is simplistic and wrong. It is like saying...tell a girl you love her and she will marry you. Of course if a man truly loves a woman and she HEARS this truth from his own mouth, then yes, she will marry him. But to make a lip service offering as binding on the living God is foolishness...

    Do You Believe In Angels ? Have You Ever Seen One ?

    A number of times. They really come in a variety of sizes!!

    Is Being Catholic And Being Born-Again The Same Thing ?

    The Catholic errors are more obvious for the new creature in Christ...yes. But there is a greater danger in assuming that Protestantism is what God wants. The errors of the reformers are deeper in nature. Not that everyone who is a protestant is in deep error. But the pride of being saved and...

    Is Being Catholic And Being Born-Again The Same Thing ?

    And also Protestants in order to distance themselves with any Catholic doctrine, have abolished sound apostolic teachings as well. There are going to be problems there as well!

    The Age of God’s Grace

    But all men can testify to the presence of the wind because things change when it blows. That is the witness of Christians, that the world sees that they are holy! THEY glorify God because of the saints....the unbelievers do this. It is only the religious leaders, who are afraid and jealous of...

    The Age of God’s Grace

    Spiritually meaning hypothetically? Spiritually so that no one in the world would know? So we can only move invisible mountains by faith?

    Is The Prosperity Message Scriptural ?

    The bible preaches spiritual riches not temporal riches.

    Joel Osteen and Doing Well

    Joel Osteen doesn't preach a Christian message at all. That is why he is so popular!
