    Why Works Are the Fruit, Not the Root of Salvation

    Dear Friends in Christ, Greetings, I write to you with love and concern for the truth that sets us free, the truth of God’s Word. It has come to my attention by reading many posts that some among you wrestle with the words of James, where he declares that "faith without works is dead." Some may...

    Chaos

    It is often taught that chaos is an absolute evil. But it is useful to consider how the Father in Heaven stated that He used the chaos of war over and over again in the Old Testament. He required much war, commanded it, directed it. And it is the same as how He has been wiping out the millions...

    The Mercy Seat and Its Connection to Jesus Christ’s Sacrifice and the ten commandments.

    The Mercy Seat was a sacred cover made of pure gold, placed on top of the Ark of the Covenant within the Tabernacle. It was designed with two cherubim—angelic figures—whose wings spread over the seat, creating a space of divine presence. This was where God promised to meet with Moses and speak...

    FAITH is the key to salvation/righteousness Eph 2: 8 For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your...

    This is just a reminder only 3 days left to gather ingredients for Passover: At 3pm in a pitch black afternoon on a Wednesday on 14th of Abib 33AD(preparation day before Passover) our LORD and Savior gave up HIS SPIRIT from HIS tortured flesh body. At the very instance the Kenite and high...

    Mosaic law covenant was a transitory dispensation

    2 Corinthians 3: 6 He has qualified us [making us sufficient] as ministers of a new covenant [of salvation through Christ], not of the letter [of a written code] but of the Spirit; for the letter [of the Law] kills [by revealing sin and demanding obedience], but the Spirit gives life. 7 Now if...

    Legal Ordinances, Old/Physical, New/Spiritual

    Eph 2:15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; (MY NOTE: The enmity is two fold [required punishments/judgments/levied] & the recognized status/standing separating Jew &...

    Galatians Chapter 3 Parsed

    Faith brings/accesses righteousness Gal 3: 5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. (MY NOTE: Abraham put...

    Repent & confess every sin?

    Repent & confess every sin? Jesus added thoughts to the law (Matt 5:28). So, this notion we must confess & ask forgiveness for every sin isn't possible & shows a lack of faith. When the Holy Spirit reveals a sin, of course we should change direction/repent. Not begging for forgiveness, but...

    Justification/Righteousness/Salvation thru Faith Alone

    Justification/Righteousness/Salvation by Faith Alone Rom 4: 1 What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather [a]humanly speaking, has found? [Has he obtained a favored standing?] 2 For if Abraham was justified [that is, acquitted from the guilt of his sins] by works [those things he did...

    What does it mean to you to have your "identity" in Christ?

    I've struggled with this concept ever since being saved and learning about The Holy Trinity beyond my childhood religious upbringing and understanding. I'm starting to think that "dying to the flesh", does not just mean the sins that contaminate our lives, nor does it just mean avoiding...

    The battle is in the mind

    2 Corinthians 10:3-5 3 For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. 4 For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. 5 We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take...

    Christian poems

    Peace be with you. May God bless you! Once I fell in love and wrote a beautiful poem in Dutch for a beautiful girl. It consisted of 5 quatrains. So afterwards I thought: if I wrote it for a girl whom I loved very much, why not writing a poem directly for God, whom I must love above everything...
