Gospel, Not Myth
|
| |
Believe the Gospel, not denominational myth. Most people who profess to be "Christian" believe their baptism as an infant is saving, and that infants do not need to understand to be baptized. But in the New Testament church, those baptized were those old enough to understand and believe the Gospel. What did they have to understand?... more »

The Night Before the Final Exam
|
| |
"Knowing that it is high time to awake out of slumber: For now is your salvation nearer than when you first believed. "The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light." --- Romans 13:11 - 12. Surely the point of this is not that a Prophesied Event is nearer now... more »

At The Moment Of Salvation
|
| |
At the moment of salvation, Christ gives us light by showing us thru the Gospel that on the cross he became our Righteous Substitute so that he is our righteousness and salvation. Having given us that light, Christ then gives us the faith to let go of trusting in all else and place all our trust on Christ alone for salvation.... more »

What Blocks The Gospel
|
| |
With professing "Christianity" being the largest number of people by religion, at about one-third of the total population of the earth, what blocks the real Gospel is that so many people either believe that they already have been saved or are being saved. That, more than anything else, blinds those who have a "Christianity" background... more »

Denomination Diversion
|
| |
Most people that profess to be "Christian" are in denominations that baptize infants. Generally it is the older denominations that do so, such as Catholic (Roman, Orthodox, so forth), Lutheran, Anglican, Presbyterian, and Methodist. Baptism is so glorified by those except for some Presbyterian and Methodist, as if essential to salvation, that... more »

The John 3:16 of the Old Testament
|
| |
To Tommy and Sue Jenkins ...is Isaiah 66:2 "For all those things hath Mine hand made, saith the Lord. But to THIS MAN I will look: even to him that is poor, and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My Word." ************************** In other words, the thing God is really interested in is FAITH, such... more »

We The Remnant
|
| |
To find Christianity, people need to go beyond the divisions. Christianity is not divided. It is not the thousands of denominations, with their false "gospels" of "salvation" by surrender that are so popular today as those always have been. Nor is it the relatively few denominations that once knew the Gospel but clouded... more »

|
Identity Of The Remnant
|
| |
The remnant is not any particular denomination. In fact, the thousands of denominations do not even know the real Gospel, but rather generally profess faith alone in Christ alone and then tell people to be saved by faith plus repentance. And then the few denominations who actually do tell people to be saved by faith alone then... more »

Saving The Remnant
|
| |
Today the real Gospel is hardly heard, loved, cherished, or even known. Yet a remnant is saved, the few millions who are taken by Christ at the Rapture. But the others are trusting in things that should definitely be done, such as repentance, baptism, endurance, but never to be trusted for salvation, since... more »

The Saved Remnant
|
| |
Relatively few are saved. It was so before the Flood. It was so after the Flood. And when Israel came out of Egypt, relatively few were saved. And when Israel was in the Promised Land, it was the same. When Christ came on earth, he showed his great glory, but still only few were saved. When Paul preached to the nations,... more »
