    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant Part #2

    Jesus is God's justifier. "To declare, I say, at this time HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS: that he might be just, and the justifier of him that believes in Jesus" Romans 3:26. And who does Jesus justify? Jesus justifies the ungodly, "But to him that does no works (religion) but believes on him that...

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    I am recovering from my stay in the hospital and am still very weak. There is no guarantee that I will be able to continue on the Forum. Please note that some of the statements that I have made in this article are from Verdict Publications, published by Robert D. Brinsmead. Verdict was a...

    Why Christians Suffer?

    I am not an authority on this subject. I have been having sever health problems lately and may be on the way out. It seems like my whole life has been one of trouble and suffering. Much of the problem is with the choices that I made before I became a Christian. We most certainly will reap what...

    Precious in the Sight of the Lord is the Death of His Saints, Psalm 116:15

    I have been in the hospital for the last few days. I thought that I was going to die. I have a prostate problem. Urine backed up in my bladder and damaged my kidneys. I knew that I had a urinary problem but ignored it. Well, it caught up with me, now I am in trouble. In the last seven years...

    The Reception of the Holy Spirit and Being Born Again

    Many believe that they have been born again when they haven't. They are counterfeit Christians. They appear to be believers, but they are not. The condition for receiving the Holy Spirit is that God must see you as perfect and complete "In Christ". The belief that you are perfect and complete...

    Subjective Religions and the Objective Gospel

    All religions have one thing in common, they are about us who are sinners. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is not about us, it is about Jesus Christ. We are the beneficiaries of the Gospel, not the instigators. The Gospel took place over 2,000 years ago before we were born. Paul said, "While we...

    New Covenant Christianity

    When God tore the veil that covered the entrance to the Holy of Holies from the top to the bottom, Matthew 27:51, that signified the end of the Old Covenant the law and the Jewish religion (Judaism). Under the New Covenant God is present with his people by the Holy Spirit, Hebrews 8:10-13. The...

    Laws, Rules and Religions Cause Sin

    Who were Jesus's enemies? Was it the prostitutes, the thieves or the outcast? No, it was the religious law keeping Pharisees. They hated him so much that they finally had him crucified. The ones that loved and accepted Jesus were the prostitutes, the thieves and the outcast. The Pharisees...

    Holliness Theology Vs. The Historical Gospel of Jesus Christ

    Holiness theology is a law-based doctrine that places the burden of justification and salvation on the believer. Some of the religions that support holiness salvation are Catholicism, Judaism, Church of Christ, Nazarene, Seventh Day Adventist, Pentecostalism. Holiness religions can be found in...

    JESUS: The End of All Laws, Rules, Commandments and Religions

    Paul said, "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believes" Romans 10:4. Do you understand what this scripture means? What it means is that Jesus is the end and the fulfillment of God's Holy Law. It also means that outside of Jesus Christ there is no law or...

    Paul: The Law is a Ministration of Death, 2 Cor. 3:7.

    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. Law and religion are things that we do. Paul said, "Therefore by the deeds of the law (what we do) no flesh will be...

    The Spiritual and Physical Aspects of Salvation

    All that have come to Christ as repentant sinners to be saved by Christ are spiritually in Christ. God sees them as being "Complete in Christ" Colossians 2:10. As far as God is concerned, they have been justified, sanctified and redeemed, 1 Corinthians 1:30. Spiritually they have been made to...

    Why the Law and the Commandments Have Been Abolished

    The law and the commandments are obsolete and are no longer needed. Under the New Covenant God's people are led and taught by the Holy Spirit, John 16:13-16. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Jesus. This is why the "Holy of Holies" was destroyed. God tore the veil that covered the entrance to the...

    What is Saving Faith?

    I have found that a great number of professing Christians do not have saving faith. There are some basic beliefs in the Gospel that will determine whether or not one has saving faith. When I was with "Christians in Action" we would go out in the public and encounter people concerning Jesus...

    What Satan Doesn't Want You to Know

    Satan doesn't want you to know that when you accepted Jesus as your savior you were translated from the Kingdom of Satan into the Kingdom of God in a microsecond. Not only did you become a new creation in Jesus Christ, but you also became a full-fledged citizen of God's Kingdom. Peter said...

    Paul: "And You are Complete in Him" (Christ). Colossians 2:10.

    If we are complete in Christ, then who needs a religion? Religion attempts to do in the flesh what God has ALREADY done in Jesus Christ. Please tell me how you can spiritually be any better than God has ALREADY made you in Jesus Christ? Colossians 2:10. We have ALREADY been quickened together...

    Catholic Preist Sings Song About Lucifer

    I have been pondering for days whether or not I should put this on the Forum. I cannot get it off of my mind, so here it is. Google "Catholic priest sings song about Lucifer" and see for yourself. I didn't think much about the song, but when he said that "Jesus was the son of Lucifer" that did...

    RELIGION: An Indication of the Absence of Faith

    All religions are based upon laws and works and not grace. Religion refuses to acknowledge the New Covenant of grace and faith and that the Old Covenant of rules, laws and religion has been abolished, Ephesians 2:15, Colossians 2:14. The Morman religion is not of the faith. They do not...

    The Wonderful Works of God, Acts 2:11

    When I became a Christian, I was intrigued with Acts chapter 2. What happened on the day of Pentecost that literally turned Jerusalem upside down? 8,000 Jews were converted to Christ, Acts 2:41 and Acts 4:4. The wind, the cloven tongues like fire, the speaking in tongues, which was foreign...

    Pope embraces Islam. Calls it Chrislam

    I don't know much about this. I heard that the pope has a new religion called Chrislam. I googled Chrislam and up comes all of this stuff about three different temples, one for the Catholics, one for the Muslims and one for Christians. Muslims do not believe that Jesus is the Christ. If you...
