The Goodnes of God has Given us the Grace of God!

 God is good, He sent His Son to give us a revelation of His goodness, for in His humanity Jesus was the express image of His Father. We know what God is like because of Jesus His Son.

 We are no longer distant from Him, we no longer need to be scared of Him or ashamed before Him. It is no longer necessary to qualify ourselves to be able to relate to Him base on our own ability, strength or our faithfulness. Rather, through a glorious act of His grace, His, love, His faithfulness our new covenant is based on Hid divine strength and His limitless ability to be faithful to us, even when we are less than faithful to Him.

 We have entered into a relationship with God that is not dependent on our doing the do's but on His perfect doneness by His perfect sacrifice. How stress releasing is it to know that the relationship we are in with the living God is not only based, but is also sealed with the blood of Hid precious Son. Jesus  paid the complete price on our behalf so that we could now partake of all the benefits of His perfect finished work. 

 He has given us an awesome gift, which is nothing less than His gospel of grace...the good news that God has now established His very own nature within us. Such is His amazing grace. Grace is not a word to be bashed around and ridiculed by those who are believers yet, discredit His grace message without the understanding of what it is. It is not just a nice word, nor is it a theoretical doctrine...no, no, no it is a living reality. It is God alive in us, at work in us and His work working through us. Grace is God's divine power of love enabling us the strength to not give in to the sin nature.

 Rejoice that we are established in His gracious grace. The gospel of grace, mercy and forgiveness in essence is the gospel of His unfailing love so graciously imparted to us.

DO NOT FORSAKE THE ASSEMBLING OF YOURSELVES TOGETHER! by David Yeubanks

“Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together" (Hebrews 10:25), is a common verse cited by Christians who believe that if you're not attending weekly meetings or plugged in a church denomination that you are somehow out of sync with Scripture and, for all practical purposes, "backsliding". Some refer to the out of church crowd as rebels, or the walking wounded and this verse is often given as the prescription. But is "attending church" really what the author of Hebrews had in mind here? YES THE BIBLE SAY’S NOT TO FORSAKE THE ASSEMBLING TOGETHER? NOTICE IT DOES NOT SAY DO NOT FORSAKE THE "ASSEMBLY" OR CHURCH BUILDING. First of all, it is essential that we understand the meaning of the word "church" as it is used in the Bible. These comments, while being historically and biblically sound, are not meant to suggest that Christians should not meet together, share fellowship, pray or preach the Word of God. If that is the conclusion

A Bloggers Take on "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" and "Hell".

HAPPY DADS AND THE HORRORS OF HELL by Jeff Turner Jonathan Edwards once said the following words: “Reprobate infants are vipers of vengeance, which Jehovah will hold over hell, in the tongs of his wrath, till they turn and spit venom in his face!” Elsewhere, Edwards asked the question: “Can the believing father in Heaven be happy with his unbelieving children in Hell?” Now, a bit of clarification: Edwards is not referring to God when he speaks of the “believing father in Heaven”. Rather, he is speaking an earthly father who enters Heaven, while His children are sentenced to an eternity in Hell. One would assume that Edwards’ answer to this question would be something akin to, “Nay! And a thousand times nay!”. Unfortunately, his answer was as follows: “…it [the sight of his children in Hell] will increase rather than diminish his bliss.” To be honest with you, I’m not sure if I’ve ever read more demonic, and putrid words in all of my life. I have a level of respec

The Abusive Tool of Fear-Mongering.

Image
  Fear mongering is an abusive tool used by religion which cripples and limits one's spiritual growth to mature to the full stature of Christ. The fear mongering propaganda that is used as a means to get people saved speaks volumes about the quality of love used to try and scare people to become Christ followers. The scriptures declare that is is the “goodness of God that leads to repentance.” Another characteristic of  fear mongering believers is that they believe that natural disasters are God’s doing and are warnings or punishment for the sin of sinning people. Their sin consciousnesses has blurred their God consciousnesses to where they see God as the big bad wolf waiting to pounce on somebody for sinning. Natural disasters have happened at different times throughout history. Theses events have been used by money hungry fear-mongers to write books of impending doom, passed of as the gospel by using out-of-context scripture verses to validate the acceptance and sale of t
