    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...

    To all those who have same sex attraction.

    I’m writing this to comfort those who struggle with this affliction myself included, This is not who you are, neither did God intend for you to have these feelings in the first place. Everybody is born with a sin nature, this causes to be spiritually separated from God and to do evil things...

    Video Talk Psalms 86:1-8 ESV “Incline your ear, O Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy. 2 Preserve my life, for I am godly; save your servant, who trusts in you—you are my God. 3 Be gracious to me, O Lord, for to you do I cry all the day. 4 Gladden the soul of your servant...

    NDE Revelation, Bishop Augustine, Calvin, Arminius or Molin on Destiny?

    I have a new view and siding regarding pre-destiny and grace. All ancient and medieval views were wrong, because they thought one needed to believe and be baptized in order to go into the light of life as when leaving the Earth. 1 Timothy 4:10. Babies sometimes die and are not baptized, and...

    Transgression of the law vs sinful nature

    I've been debating a few "we're under the law" people lately and one of the things that's clearly misunderstood is what trangression of the law is. There's sinful acts which we wrestle with. This is our sinful nature. Paul talks about how we want to follow our mind in Christ but we wrestle...

    Hallelujah! My salvation depends on God

    For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9not by works, so that no one can boast. 10For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Eph 2:8-10 "saved" here is a...

    Gospel of Grace

    Are you a Hebrew? If not, you should be focused on the Gospel of Grace. So, you need to focus on Paul’s writings and leave the Hebrew Christian writings alone until you are well established in the Gospel of God’s Grace given to Paul for you exclusively. It is like this; many people start off on...

    Sin Ordinance Penalties Blotted Out/abolished For Every Believer

    1 Jn 3:4 Sin is a transgression of Gods Law: Ok, all have broken God's law (Rom 3:23). No one can say he isn't a sinner until some means is provided (not to take away the law) but to remove the sin, which is the transgression of the law. Faith placed in Jesus's sin payment & resurrection...

    Salvation comes by Grace & is accessed through Faith

    Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (MY NOTE: Sins required wage is DEATH. Eternal life/salvation is accessed through Christ) Rom 3: 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (MY NOTE: ALL are sinners &...

    Grace Has A Name

    "Love without Grace, would lack expression" - Citizen of the Kingdom

    Hi there! So my brother in Christ (Citizen of the Kingdom) gave me this quote and it spoke directly to me, about what it is that is so confusing about Evolution: viz, how can you love the theory of Evolution, without some sort of work, that is peculiar to Evolution? Why do I ask this: because...

    Faith in God's grace supersedes our sin

    All scripture was written for us. Not all scripture is written to us. When dissecting any verse of scripture. Ask yourself, of whom, to whom, with what words, what time, where, to what intent, with what circumstances, considering what is written before and what follows any single verse context...

    Getting baptized again on Wednesday

    So this Wednesday I am getting baptized again, and by again I mean for a fourth time. Now let me explain. As a young boy I grew up in church. It was an Independent Fundamental Baptist church where I was heavily soaked in the KJV and memorization. At the age of 10 or 11, I was baptized in...

    Let's make Evolution, more memorable - suggestions?

    Hi there, So this is an example of me going the extra mile, for friends of Evolution. Evolution, which is a theory, can be maintained in one of two ways, for example: by way of extrapolation from existing memories, or by example made of extenuous objects of memory, that are not directly related...

    "The Evolution of a specific survival, is different from the optimal survival for that Evolution"

    Hi there, So I just want to make a simple point: The point I am trying to make, is that evolving a specific survival ensures something will be passed on, but that passing on "more" will ensure the given survival will survive for longer. This means that "agency" continues to be important...
