    Going on Hospice Today.

    The word "Hospice" means "A place of rest or shelter, usually maintained by a religious order for pilgrims and travelers. (Funk & Wagnalls Dictionary) Life is like a journey. I have been on a journey for a very long time. I have been down in the valleys and I have been on the mountain tops...

    The Fall of Humanity

    The fall of humanity is very controversial because it is about original sin. Adam and Eve were created innocent. I believe that God wanted them to have a free will to choose evil or good, unfortunately they chose evil. They bought the devils lie that they would be like God's knowing good from...

    Why Religions are Self Defeating

    What religions require that you believe about God and his Son Jesus Christ is what is going to send multitudes to hell. Example. Calvinists are required to believe that God is an unjust tyrant that condemns people to hell before they are born. It is not possible to believe that about God and...

    Who is Jesus Christ?

    Jesus said, "For if you believe not that I am "HE" you will die in your sins" John 8:24. What was Jesus saying? Who is the "HE"? When I first became a Christian, I was not really sure about who Jesus Christ was. I knew that he was the Son of God, but that was it. I wrestled with the belief that...

    Jesus and the Pharisees

    Jesus and the Pharisees were both teachers of the Mosiac Law. You would think that because they had this in common that they would be friends, instead they were bitter enemies. What was it that made them enemies. Jesus said of them, "They say, but they don't do" In the 23rd chapter of Matthew...

    Why laws, Rules, Religion Promotes Hate for Others

    Religion is like a cult, all that are outside of the cult are the enemy. Example, Calvinism is the belief that God hates humanity. They believe that before the foundation of the world God predestinated that all of humanity would go to hell, except for a few that would call themselves...

    Paul's New Covenant Theology

    This is very serious, because some of you are under the Old Covenant of laws, rules and religion. To be under the Old Covenant of laws, rules and religion is to be under the curse. Paul said, "For as many as are of the works of the law (Religion) are under the curse: for it is written, "Cursed...

    RELIGION: A Diversion Away from Christ and His Gospel

    There were no religions in the early church, but some wanted to divide the church. Some said, "I am of Paul, I am of Apollos, I am of Cephas, I am of Christ, 1 Corinthians 1:12. Paul wanted no part of this contention. Paul said, "Now I beseech you brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus...

    The One World Religion

    If you are waiting for this to happen, you won't have to wait any longer. It is already here, and it is alive and well. The pope has already embraced Islam and Judaism as part of the one world religion. He is still working on other religions. The whole idea is to bring all religions under...

    How Does Jesus Save?

    Almost everyone believes that Jesus is the savior. The question is how does Jesus save us? Catholics believe that Jesus saves them by doing something in them (Holiness). The Bible does not teach that. The Bible teaches that we are born into sin, King David wrote, "Behold, I was shapen in...

    Have You Been Crucified With Christ?

    When Jesus died on the cross all of humanity died with him. God has spiritually crucified the whole world in Jesus Christ. Sin, death and the devil were destroyed when Jesus died on the cross. Paul wrote, "Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be...

    Christ is the End of the Law (Religion) for Righteousness

    Under the New Covenant the law has been abolished, Ephesians 2:15. Jesus nailed it to his cross, Colossians 2:14. The reason that God abolished the law is because all of God's people are now in Christ. God sees them as perfect and complete in Christ, Colossians 2:10. Religion is for people...

    Understanding and Believing the Gospel

    No one can understand and believe the Gospel without the Holy Spirit. This can cause a problem on Christian Forums. The reason is that not everyone on the Forum is a born-again believer. If you have never called on Christ to save you, Romans 10:13, then chances are that you are a lost...

    Why All Religions Are Worthless

    Man is trying to return to the Garden of Eden by the works of the law (religion) Not Going to happen. Paul said, "Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law (what he does) but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we that have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified...

    Transubstantiation. What is it?

    "Transubstantiation". The first part of the word "Trans" means to change. The second part of the word "Substantiation" means the substance. Catholics believe that the bread and the wine in the Eucharist changes into the actual flesh and blood of Jesus. I have trouble with this because it...

    Can Our Lower Adamic Nature Be Rehabilitated by the Works of the Law?

    If that were possible then Jesus lived and died in vain. Paul said, "Therefore by the deeds of the law (what we do) there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin" Romans 3:20. The purpose of the law is to judge and condemn, it cannot save or justify...

    Freedom From Religion

    Jesus said, "If the Son has made you free, you shall be free indeed." John 8:36. The words "law" and "religion" basically mean the same thing. When one is doing their religion, they are doing the law. When one is doing the law, they are doing their religion. Any religious thing that we do is...

    Was Paul a Catholic?

    If Paul was a Catholic, he was not a very good one. I think that he would have gotten the anathema axe. Paul was not a Catholic, Paul was a New Covenant Christian. Baptism is a big thing in the Catholic religion. If you have not been baptized in the Catholic church, you are not a Catholic...

    Will You Die in Your Sins?

    Jesus said to the religious Pharisees, "You are from beneath; I am from above: you are of this world; I am not of this world. I said therefore unto you, that you shall die in your sins: for if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sins, John 8:23-24. The Pharisees could not...
