Tuesday, April 1st, 2008Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment
What judgment would contrast the 1st death better than the righteousness of one, which came upon all men unto justification of life?
Monday, March 31st, 2008Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works
So often, so many think they can judge those who are born again by observing ones works, yet this passage teaches that works are not always manifested.
Thursday, January 31st, 2008Matthew 22:14 For many are called but few are chosen
Many of God’s children are called to be obedient; called to live righteously, but few are actually chosen. In order to properly understand what Jesus meant, we must allow scripture to interpret scripture. We can do this by studying Paul’s teaching on the election of grace.

When properly understood, it is speaking of those who are exerting themselve [...]
Saturday, November 10th, 2007Genesis 3: The fall of Man - a shadow of Regeneration and Conversion
When Adam ate of the fruit of the forbidden tree, the result that occurred is often referred to as the “Fall of Man“. This is an appropriate name and for the most part is correctly taught.
