I believe in Christ's Deity. I Affirm the Trinity. I believe the Gospel is Jesus Death, Burial, and Resurrection, which is the atonement for the sin of the whole world, but only effective when somebody receives salvation by placing their trust in Jesus Christ. Salvation is by Faith Alone!!! If you disagree, feel free to unsubscribe and go worship the Pope or John MacArthur or whoever. I am NOT Antinomian. I do not support an immoral lifestyle. However, we must not destroy the Gospel of Free-Grace by mandating Works or Holiness for Justification because we fear Free-Grace will lead to immorality. Please read Paul's Epistle to the Romans chapter 6,7, and 8 which was written explicitly to refute this notion. In terms of Eschatology, I am currently Premillenial, Post-Trib. I am an Annihilationist. I believe the bible ultimately teaches that the wicked will not live forever. Eternal life is a gift God only gives to those who will be saved. The Wicked will be thrown into the lake of fire where they will experience the 2nd death which will not be instantaneous but will torment the wicked in proportion to the works of evil they have done. "The mingling of them [Law and Grace] in much of the current teaching of the day spoils both, for the law is robbed of its terror, and grace of its freeness" - C.I. Scofield "Faith is a living, daring confidence in God's grace, so sure and certain that a man would stake his life on it a thousand times" - Martin Luther
A Prayer for a Courageous Soul - Your Daily Prayer - April 26
We have been given a remarkable gift through God and His redemption story. Not only have we received eternal life with our Creator, but we have received courage in Christ that will change the trajectory of our lives and the lives of those around us forever.
