  • “Surrender your life to Christ to be saved?”

    14 MAY 2018 · These individuals will tolerate grace to a certain extent but will go on to warn of taking grace too far; a “cheap grace” they believe will issue “a license to sin.” There is no such thing in God’s Word about grace giving people a license to sin. It’s a myth and a fabrication that leads to fear and uncertainty … the very opposite of what the gospel of grace is meant to bring to people, which includes the gifts of righteousness, peace, assurance and life.
-
This fear of “too much grace” is birthed from a mixed message of grace and law, rooted inside of doctrines which erroneously blend the obsolete Old Covenant with the everlasting New Covenant of Jesus Christ. People are free to make their own right or wrong choices, but to put the blame of sinful choices on grace is the equivalent to placing the blame on Jesus.
-
We need to commence to see grace for what it really is … or WHO it really is—Jesus Christ. He is the manifestation of grace. He is the very essence of grace. God gave us this grace that is found in Christ Jesus before time began, and it has nothing to do with good or bad works (see 2 Timothy 1:9). Consider this question: Can you have too much of Jesus? Obviously not. But when these people warn of dipping into too much grace, that is exactly what they are saying.
-
Stop thinking about grace as merely something that “covers your sin” temporarily until you sin again. Get away from the mindset that grace is only there to “let you off the hook” when you do something wrong. Stop mixing law and grace! Why? Because you are not under law and the law is not of faith!
-
Paul told Titus to avoid the empty talkers … that is, primarily those (Jews) whose teachings were not sound in faith, and with their “Jewish myths and commands” would turn people from the truth. They would profess to know God but denied Him by their works (see Titus 1:10-16). Paul went on to say this: "For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;” (Titus 2:11-12).
 They’ll imply with lip service that grace is a good thing, but they’ll advise to avoid putting on too many layers because it might lead to more sinning. This is the precise opposite of what the Bible teaches because it was through the law which caused sin to increase—not grace. God designed it that way to reveal sin, condemnation and death, and ultimately point people to the savior Jesus (grace). The book of John reveals a contrast between the law of works and the grace of God: “And from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ” (John 1:16-17). Grace contains layers that never end … grace upon grace. It is the foundation of all truth. So grace isn’t just about helping people who have sinned, it’s God’s purpose for us, and a part of the new life we have in Christ.

  • Baptism Part 1

    28 APR 2018 · Some believe they have to be Baptized to get to Heaven. Baptism is an act of obedience to God, but can never wash away our sin. Nothing but the blood of Jesus Christ, God Does Not Count Baptism Contrary to the teaching of many when it comes to salvation, God does not count baptism. Baptismal regeneration was first taught by the Catholic church and later picked up by several other denominations. Those who think that God requires water baptism as an entrance into Heaven teach that the water washes away sins. The only thing that remits sins is the blood of Christ. He brews 9:22 says, “. . . without shedding of blood is no remission.” If one had to be baptized to have his sins remitted, then what would he do with the sins he committed after he was saved? Suppose a man was baptized twenty years ago. Since then he has committed many sins. Remember, no one lives absolutely perfect and above sin. First John 1:10 says, “If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” Now if baptism were necessary to remit sins, then this man would need to be baptized again in order to have remitted the sins he had committed since he had been saved. But if he is baptized the second time, then what will he do with the sins he commits after the second baptism? Of course, if water were necessary to wash away sins, then he must be baptized again and again and again. Every time he commits a sin, he would have to be baptized again to have his sins washed away. If baptism is really necessary to remit sin, then a person not only should be baptized; he should get into the baptistry and refuse to ever get out lest he commit some sin after he gets out of the baptistry and die before he can get back into the water.

  • AntiChrist Gospel

    26 APR 2018 · This gospel of the grace of God is not a tradition, it is a revelation. Paul says that he did not receive it from man; that God gave it to him, that he might preach it to the Gentiles. And Paul uses strong language when he speaks of the men who preach any other gospel than this gospel of grace. "If any man preach any other gospel let him be accursed," that is, "let him be under the anathema of God." Galatians 1:6-9 1 Corinthians 15:1-4

  • "I gave my Life to Christ" to be saved?

    25 APR 2018 · As a soul winner, you will often hear this statement from people that they have "given their life to Christ" First, Giving life to Christ to be saved is nowhere to be in my King James Bible. Secondly , Our life has been corrupted by sin, and this requires a sinless man to make it holy for us to be accepted by God. Third, Christ gave his life for us to be holy, righteous and clean before God. Galatians 1:4, 1 Timothy 2:6, and more Scripture references given in the podcast. Listen and enjoy.

  • Eternal Security(Once Saved Always Saved)

    17 APR 2018 · The question of whether or not a true believer can lose his salvation after having been justified by faith alone in the person and work of Jesus Christ has existed within the church almost from its inception. In fact, during the persecution of the early church in the second and third centuries, many individuals who were facing the prospect of torment and even death chose to renounce their faith in order to avoid suffering a painful and often lethal punishment. Later, when the Roman Empire began to ease its oppression of Christianity, some of the same individuals who had renounced their faith in Christ wanted to be accepted back into their local churches. While some believed that those who had repudiated their faith were still true believers, others held to the idea that these individuals were previously saved but were no longer saved because they had denied their faith. This, in part, led to a further question: “If Christians sin after their conversion, can they lose their salvation?” This is not simply an “intellectual” issue for the theologians to debate. The question of the eternal security of the believer has profound and practical implications in the life of everyone who claims to be a Christian. Why is this issue so important?

  • Understanding Salvation- Part 2

    14 APR 2018 · Jesus Christ Paid a Sin Debt that We Could Not Pay Jesus paid a debt He did not owe, because we owed a debt we could not pay. That's God's grace! Like it or not, you are just too sinful and wicked to save yourself—you CANNOT earn your way into Heaven. This is the very reason why God had to provide a way of escape for humanity. This way of escape has been provided through the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ. God did this because He loves us very much, more than we can possibly comprehend. Don’t make the mistake of creating God in your own image, you were created in God’s own image. You are the object of the Heavenly Father’s love—so much so that He created you in His very own likeness. Jesus paid for our sins because He loves us... “Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren” (1st John 3:16). What a precious Saviour!

Salvation Cannot Be by Works and God's Grace
“NOT BY WORKS of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost” (Titus 3:5). This Bible verse makes it plain and simple that good works will not save anyone. Listen to the message of Ephesians 2:8-9, “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: NOT OF WORKS, lest any man should boast.” How many Scriptures does God need to put in front of our face before we get the idea—salvation is not by merit. “Knowing that a man is NOT JUSTIFIED BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and NOT BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW: for BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW SHALL NO FLESH BE JUSTIFIED” (Galatians 2:16). The road to Hell is paved with good intentions!!! The plain teaching of the Inspired Word of God is that salvation is NOT BY WORKS. You just read the Scriptures for yourself.
