    The Gospel

    The bible is NOT a self help book that tells you how to be a good person or how to be the best you there is and get your blessings. The bible is so we can know and understand who God is and what His will is. There's no such thing as a good person. The Ten Commandments tells us how sinful and...

    The Gospel

    The gospel is not about our humanitarian endeavors to love, making the world a better place, and being thankful for existence. The gospel is about Jesus Christ crucified and resurrected for the forgiveness of sins. He came to reconcile lost sinners to the Father so that we may be made righteous...

    The Gospel

    "Preaching the gospel to myself each day mounts a powerful assault against my pride and serves to establish humility in its place. Nothing suffocates my pride more than daily reminders regarding the glory of my God, the gravity of my sins, and the crucifixion of God’s own Son in my place. Also...

    The Gospel

    Something I've noticed over time is that many people erroneously believe that the gospel is to love God and love our neighbors as ourselves. It's not. Instead, it's the very thing that condemns you. Here's why. The whole law is summed up in the two commandments: love God with ALL of your...

    God's goodness can't be bought

    There aren't any verses in the bible that teaches one can buy miracles and gifts from God. They're always mercifully, graciously, and freely given (James 1:17). There was a time where I believed that you could, but by the grace of God, He saved me and brought me out of that garbage. It's wrong...

    Just a reminder....

    Really? Others would find the OP heretical? I'd be curious as to how, or why, they would come to that conclusion. I'd like to know what their systematic theology is, too.

    if Harry Potter were real he would be going to hell

    No, that's called panentheism. Sooooo....rather than reading the bible, we can watch movies full of and that glamourize witchcraft to find God? Hebrews 1 (that's in bible) says that in these last days, God has spoken to us through His Son, Jesus Christ. We all deserve to go to hell. But...

    Just a reminder...

    Couldn't have said it better myself. "Christians are continually trying to change their lives; but God calls us the experience the exchanged life. Christianity is not a self improvement program. It isn't a reformation project. It is resurrection! It is a new life! And it is expressed in terms...

    if Harry Potter were real he would be going to hell

    And a word of advice Frankleespeaking, watch out for rabbit trails and red herrings that are meant to sidetrack and derail the heart of the matter, even from those who say they're christians.

    if Harry Potter were real he would be going to hell

    :thumbsup: God bless you for speaking out so boldly against this and many will fight against what you've said, if they haven't already. What's worse is that fact that there are christians who watch Harry Potter movies and say that somehow, they found God in them or a godly principle to live...

    What Satan Really Hates

    Also, remember the Gospel in all your doing and in all your getting, get understanding (Proverbs 4:5 & 7, Ephesians 5:15-17). If you don't know what God's will is, read Ephesians 1. He wants to gather to Himself the redeemed, His Body and Bride, the Church. =) We do that by seeking to save the...

    What Satan Really Hates

    "Satan always hates Christian fellowship; it is his policy to keep Christians apart. Anything which can divide saints from one another is his delight." - Charles H. Spurgeon We must not forsake our assembling together, as may be the habit of some. We need to fellowship inside and outside of...

    Christianity is not a cult!

    Quoting from the book of James? :) Yes, a true believer is one who not only preaches righteousness, but also does it. However, God is the one who looks at and weighs our motives. Therefore, the only kind of work He's pleased with and will accept are those that are done because of the...
