Because the church did not endure sound doctrine, and because trying to look back nearly 2000 years to understand just what the Scripture meant, and because there are three (even four) scenarios of how different believers were/are saved to consider, we believe this is too difficult to explain...

If our understanding is in error, then please show us: 1) What is "true Christian conversion? 2) What is "justification?" 3) When are we born of GOD? 4) How/when was/is a believer baptized into Christ Jesus? 5) How/when does a child of GOD become a son of GOD? 6) What is the difference...

Justification is a progressive process of GOD cleansing us of unrighteousness as we repent and confess our sins unto living a righteous lifestyle to be born of GOD. The righteousness of Christ is not imputed unto us until we are born of GOD. Justification is a free gift, in that Christ became...

If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him (1 John 2:29). If you do not practice righteousness, you are not of GOD. ........Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother. (1 John 3:10 b,c)...

Believers are reconciled to GOD the Father (saved/quickened) when we are forgiven of all trespasses by repenting and confessing our sins, but just because we believe that does not mean we have turned from the world and sin to practice righteousness. We do not become an heir of GOD in the...

Believers that are born of the Spirit to be "alive in Christ" (not the spiritually "dead in Christ") shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Not all so-called believers have repented to practice righteousness and overcome to become an heir of the Kingdom...

We can have the Spirit of the Son within us, but we are not saved as a child of God until we believe and repent to be forgiven and cleansed of unrighteousness to pass from death until life. Someone who chooses to willfully practice unrighteousness has not been saved, even if they believe. They...

"THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH." (Galatians 3:11b) The JUST are those who practice righteousness are passed from death unto life (born again). ........he who is righteous (practices righteousness), let him be righteous (justified) still (Revelation 22:11c). God justifies those who practice...

Those who practice righteousness are born of God (1 John 2:29). Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother (1 John 3:10) 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!' (Matthew 7:23)

What is salvation? God forgives us of sins we have committed which relieves our conscience of guilt. We are free from condemnation by the curse of the Law under grace for our faith. We are delivered from sin in our life as we are cleansed of unrighteousness. We are righteous and cannot commit...
