The Fear Of God – Excellent Message by Patsy Cameneti

by

This is the way The Fear Of God should be taught! I loved this message and listened to it myself, probably 5 times! When we truly understand what The Fear of God means it actually delivers us from a whole bunch of other fears, including the fear of man. Tony Cameneti spoke at our church […]

The Simplicity of Grace

by

I had made life so complicated for so long. I still remember the main thing that drew me to a life of grace like a magnet was the simplicity of it. Eluny, who is from South Africa and currently lives in China (she works with kids) is now in St. Louis, MO for the 35th […]

God Is NOT Judging America

by

Or anyone else, for that matter. How could this be? Jesus, that’s how. Because perfect, sinless Jesus was willing to go to the cross and take the sin of the entire world upon Himself – 2 Corinthians 5:21 says Jesus became sin for us – God’s wrath toward sin was forever satisfied. Look, here’s the […]

What About Obedience?

by

Lori, from Dracut, Massachusetts recently emailed me the following question about obedience after reading my post titled There’s No Bad News In The Good News. Sandra….John 14:15 says “If you [really] love Me, you will keep (obey) My commands. And John 14:23-24 says “Jesus answered, If a person [really] loves Me, he will keep My […]

How does Faith Establish the Law? (Romans 3:31)

by

The Bible makes some interesting comparisons between faith and law: We are justified by FAITH, not by LAW (Rom 3:28, Gal 2:16) Abraham and his heirs are blessed on account of FAITH, not LAW (Rom 4:13-14) You can live by FAITH or LAW (Rom 4:14) No one who relies on the LAW is justified for the righteous live by FAITH (Gal 3:11) The LAW is not of FAITH (Gal 3:12) Summary: You can live by faith or law but not both. It’s one or the other. But what about this… Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law. (Rom 3:31, KJV) The scriptures declare again and again that faith has nothing in common with law, and living under one nullifies the other. So what is Paul saying here? Is he contradicting himself when he says faith establishes the law? Here’s the same verse in another translation: Do we then nullify the Law through faith? May it never be! On the contrary, we establish the Law. (Rom 3:31 , NASB) Like most grace preachers, Paul was slandered as someone who spoke against the law. He was labeled with the dreaded A-word: antinomian, meaning [...]

True or False? Being Sin Conscious Makes Me Sin Less

by

I laughed, I cried, I kept screaming “PREACH” and I thought, my goodness, if every Christian on the planet could hear this teaching. Dr. Creflo Dollar is doing such an amazing job unveiling the beauty of Jesus right now. I absolutely loved this message and I loved what he said about racism at the end […]

God’s Protection Over Us

by

You have probably figured out by now, especially if you watch the news, that you cannot count on the people and the environment around you always being safe. I made a personal decision a long time ago to stop watching the news because of the fear it brought along with it. Steve, my husband, tells […]

Where Sin Abounds, Grace Superabounds

by

All my life I had struggled with being late. Believe me, it was a chronic problem. I can even remember running down my subdivision street, chasing the school bus fairly often in elementary school as a result of standing in front of the bathroom mirror too long and not leaving my house in time. The […]

The Greatest Freedom You’ll Ever Know

by

It’s hard to put into words what gaining security through getting to know who I am in Christ has done for me, but I have found that as I’ve learned the promises in the Bible that tell me who I am and what I have in Christ and live out my true identity on a […]

There’s No Bad News In The Good News

by

Whoa, this concept just hit me. Like, literally just about 30 minutes ago. I started typing as rapidly as possible! When we share the gospel with people, but present it as a works based religion (not the real gospel), it may look like we are encouraging spiritual maturity, but what we are actually creating are […]

610. Gentiles: Never Given the Law; Jews: Do the Law or Die (No Doer Found)

by

It comes as a surprise to many Christians who have spent years in church - those of us non-Jewish people (Gentiles) were never considered to be under the Mosaic law. Never. None of it. Not the dietary rules, the sacrificial statutes, or the moral laws. Only Israel had been placed under that law in the Old Covenant, before the sacrifice of Christ. The law brought a curse for those under it - they were required to do it… all of it. Under that covenant, only a doer of the law could be justified. The problem? Nobody had ever done it until Jesus came along and fulfilled the law on our behalf. A New Covenant would be established, where righteousness would be received through faith, apart from the works of the law. Gentiles who were without the law and had no covenant would be gifted with the invitation to enter into this everlasting covenant of life. We died with Christ and have been raised to walk in newness of life.

Make A Positive Impact

by

If you are a Jesus-follower, Jesus said you are the light of the world! Wow! A few months ago someone who had influence over my girls, Angel and Starr, at the time, asked a whole group of kids the following question: What did Jesus say about you? One of my girls answered, “Jesus said we’re […]
