Are You a Sinner or a Saint?
Q: How can we be righteous in God’s eyes; when we do things that are unrighteous? Lisa
A: This is the core of the Gospel, the very essence of redemption, and the Glory of the LORD Jesus Christ.
When a person grasps it, they become enraptured in loving awe of God’s Grace.
Lisa, I’m not going to spoon-feed, and thereby deprive you of the finest way to comprehend the answer, which is; to discover what Christ has already done for you, why He did it, and how He wants you to respond. (You’ll find a clue here; Are You Guilty or Not?)
You won’t get the revelation listening to withered figs grinding through dry denominational sermons, nor skimming through the Bible, nor “Bing-ing” the internet: It comes only when you realise He’s calling you to put your sin-stained hand in God’s.
When you really understand the meaning of redemption, you will have perfect peace always. I recommend every Christian read E.W. Kenyon’s little book called Identification, where he elaborates beautifully on what this really means.
If you are interested in Truth; simply get a Holy Bible, preferably the KJV, and pray to God asking Him to open your spiritual eyes to understand His word.
Then carefully read the Gospel of John, and Jesus will be revealed to you like never before.
Is Polygamy Sin or Not?
Q: Why is the Bible silent on whether polygamy is a sin or not?
A: Both God and the Holy Bible are crystal clear that polygamy is sin.
Marriage is one man and one wife. (Gen, 2:24, Eph. 5:31)
You’ve been misled by false-teachers or cults such as the Mormons.
Perhaps you’ve also been confused why some of the Patriarchs and kings had several wives and concubines. Seek God to open the eyes of your understanding, and He will. Eph. 5:31 KJV;
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
Lord, Increase our Faith
Q: How can I strengthen my faith?
A: 1) First by understanding what Bible faith is, and what it isn’t.
2) Second by ensuring your faith is in what the Bible says it should be in, not what you think it should be in.
3) Third by using what faith you have and observing the results.
If the results fall short, re-examine your compliance with 1 and 2.
4) Fourth by walking in holiness with Christ, and asking Him to increase your faith. He will give you plenty of practical opportunities to become secure in your faith.
You will discover, as you walk with Jesus, that faith ceases to be a problem because you are established in the Truth and reality of the Living God.
Apparitions and Satanic Black-holes
See for yourself how the Catholic Catechism compares with God’s written word: The Holy Bible: Understanding Roman Catholicism
Q: Can you explain more about Bernadette’s vision of “Mary”? Christine
Discover why Catholics are not Christian.
A: That’s covered here Christine: The occult apparitions at Fatima, Lourdes, Medjugorje, etc., are all Catholic snares and demonic deceptions.
