The Hardened Heart Will Nor Receive God's Grace.


The undeniable evidence that a person is living the Grace Life is by his exemplifying the same attitude that Jesus had.

 Jesus sought no religious hierarchical position.
Jesus sought no religious office.
Jesus sought no religious title.
Jesus sought not to fleece the flock.
Jesus sought not the applause of men.
Jesus sought not to please religious people.
Jesus sought not to be self-righteous.
Jesus sought not the establishment of denominations.
Jesus sought not to do His own will.
Jesus sought not to be served.

 Jesus said; I am not here to be served, but to serve.

 I would like to inform Grace-haters that there is nothing wrong or new about God’s Grace Gospel! When it is shared in its purity, unmixed with religious laws, it transforms people in the same powerful way as it did in the early Church. There is no problem with the message of Grace, the problem is with “us” the people. We have abandoned the fullness of Christ  and the freedom that Grace brings for the emptiness of ritual and the bondage of religion.

Grace is available to ALL, but there is one group of people that cannot receive it.

 “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” (James 4:6).

 The proud cannot receive Grace because their heart is hardened with religious self-righteous pride!

 However, the humble do receive it because they always find God to be graciously gracious, lovingly loving, compassionately compassionate and forgiving.

 The same sun that hardens the clay warms the earth. The same message of Grace that is receive by the softened heart of the humble...hardens the heart of the proud. It is only the humble of heart that can understand the richness, the fullness and the far reaching effect of God’s Amazing Grace. God reigns His Grace on those who are of humble heart.

 Hear the Lord knocking on the door of your religiously proud heart and saying; Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If you can hear My voice (through the religious hog-wash) open the door, I will come in and eat with you, and you with Me (Rev. 3:20). (Brackets mine)

 To the religious hardened I say; why not open your heart and discover the Grace Person...the Living Word of God...Jesus Christ our Lord.

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
