Teachings

By an audacious sleight of hand, one of God’s Ten Commandments has either been done away with or replaced with a manmade substitution, as if God changed His mind. Other than the Catholic Church trying to abolish the Second Commandment, against images, there is nothing like the religious devilry surrounding the Fourth Commandment, regarding the keeping of the Sabbath. This is Victor’s story about how the Lord exposed these lies after bringing him into the rest of God spoken of in Hebrews. The Sabbath isn’t only a commandment, but a gift of God to mankind.

Where has the Sabbath gone? What is the true Sabbath? Are the interpretations of favorite passages concerning the Sabbath legitimate? Are you, as a believer, inadvertently breaking the whole Law of God?

If God reigns supreme over all things, and is Lord of the Sabbath, and if He would have man to rest on the Sabbath, why does He permit an ox to fall in a pit on that day and require someone to rescue it?

Some religious people rightly acknowledge the keeping of the Sabbath as part of God’s eternal Law, but suggest the day it’s kept has changed. This we refute by the letter and the Spirit of the Law.

The Sabbath is a gift from God; it’s about receiving from Him. It’s not so much about what we do or don’t do, as about believing Him Who supplies us with every good and necessary thing by faith. Here are some guidelines and thoughts about keeping the Sabbath.

We have a conversation with Deborah, a Catholic who says that Jesus asked her to put up images of Himself and “saints,” and who wishes to be a great saint in her own right. we point out the error of the ways and idolatries of the Catholic Church, which she walks in and defends.

A false gospel has overtaken the earth like cancer, teaching people that God wouldn’t have them suffer in any way, but would see to it that they are rich in the physical things and comforts of this world. These are “men whose minds have been corrupted and deprived of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness.” The apostle says, “Withdraw from such” (1 Timothy 6:5 MKJV). Come and hear the true and profitable way of Christ.

We met a fellow with whom we shared the great and true Gospel, or “Good News” that one day, ALL men would come to a saving faith in, and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.

We received this note in response to How the Lord Exposed Billy Graham: While I respect your difference of opinion about the gifts of the Spirit and their application today, I cannot subscribe to teachings that would take these differences and create division within the Body of Christ.

Is there any Scriptural evidence that one has only this lifetime to come into harmony with God? Would God damn forever someone who has never heard of the Lord Jesus Christ, having never been given opportunity to believe? Nowhere do the Scriptures support this doctrine. Indeed, they cry out against it.

Don Quixote, a man deluded into interacting with the world solely in terms of medieval knight errantry, consumed as he was by much reading and feverish contemplation, serves as the poster child of all religious fanatics. The difference between a religious fanatic and a saint (follower of God) is that the saint is consumed by God, the fanatic by dogma, doctrine, persons, groups, feelings, intellectual knowledge, rituals, and anything BUT God. The fanatic misreads everything; the saint is in his or her right mind. In this series of communications we are speaking with a Don Quixote, his chosen delusion the doctrine of universal salvation. In this case it is not the doctrine but the man that is in error. We show why, and give answers pointing the Way out of delusion to sanity.

A debate rages over marriage and ordination of homosexuals in the Anglican Church of Canada. Several congregations or dioceses are voting to break with the national mother church over the issues.

There is a prevalent doctrine that Satan was once a glorious angel, in harmony with the goodness of God, but pride and ambition took over and he rebelled. The primary Scriptures used to support this doctrine are those of Ezekiel 28 and Isaiah 14, interpreting the king of Tyre and Lucifer as Satan. However, let’s take a closer look at what these Scriptures say.

Satan appeals to men by getting them to focus on the flesh and how they feel. Jesus Christ has not come to appeal to our senses, but to free us from their bondage by the truth that makes us free through Him, bringing us into the true life and fulfillment of God. Satan says, “Here, take and eat of this shell made by God, and you will live.” Jesus Christ says, “Here, take and eat of My Body, and you will have life.” See the difference between death and life in this writing.

Someone professing Christ comes to us with doubts about the doctrine of “once saved, always saved.” He thought he was saved, but wonders how that can be after years of slavery to the sin of adultery. Indeed! Was this a fall from grace, or was he never saved to begin with? One can’t lose what one doesn’t have. This writing defines the terms of our salvation and how they are applied in daily life, shedding light on the path for all true pilgrims in Christ and for all those snared in sin who have yet to know true repentance and the power of God in a new life.

Read "Once Saved, Always Saved"?

“Who then can be saved?” is the question that has been hotly debated ever since salvation was known to be available. One could and should also ask, can God save anybody? Would He save anybody? Why would He save anybody? How does He save anybody? When does He save anybody? And should He save anybody? The answers to these questions are in this article.

Read Who Then Can Be Saved?!

Is believing in the Creator of all things an assumption, or is there a sure knowledge to be had of Him, which guides one into all Truth? That is the experience of the authors of the Scriptures (people just like you and me). It is also our experience, who have been given the same faith. Jon, an atheistic “theologian,” finds fault with this because he relies on man’s powers of observation and understanding. That has led him to argue for evolution, a belief we show to be the assumptive one, leading to poverty of soul.

What a carrot this false teaching of the Lord’s physical coming has been, dangled before the noses of the religious masses as a titillating and sensational prospect that masks the futility and barrenness of their empty professions of faith.

Man takes any shortcut he can to escape judgment. If believing he is innocent does not suffice because the evidence is too obvious, he may then decide that “Jesus has paid the price; we do not need to worry.” The realities of sin, confession to God, and repentance from sin, as regularly as needed, are repugnant to the flesh, so man likes to think of a god who overlooks or disregards sin, a god who would never hurt a fly.

If there is one thing that is universally lacking among those who profess the Name of the Lord, it is godly submission. There may be submission to a creed, or the keeping of certain rules, varying from one group and set of doctrines to another, but the pressure to conform to an appearance is not the submission of God. Submission to Him comes by receiving, believing, and obeying those He sends in Jesus Christ, who preach the living Word of Life. Only by this submission can there be peace, harmony, salvation and life. Anything else, whether done in His Name or not, tends to disorder, confusion, and death.

Jesus Christ is the undisputed Shepherd for those who believe, Who cares for and leads His sheep. He sends shepherds in His Name for this purpose, to feed His sheep, as He specifically said and did with Peter. Is this fact not what the pope of Rome uses to claim his legitimacy and authority? But false claims such as his do not dispel what is authentic and needful. There are those who are sent by God (not ordained of men), who serve Him in leading others in the way. Since His way means life, submission is critical to the working out of salvation for those to whom He sends His servants.
