Son of God, Free man in a foreign land. Father. Ancap.
I actually believe that Jesus loves YOU.
I actually believe in individual rights.
Government is Evil

@ChadRutter_ If we are faithless, He remains faithful.
He'll never leave us nor forsake us.
No one can snatch us from His hand.
Nothing can separate us from His love.
Having believed, we were sealed.
He lives to intercede for us.
Love is patient, kind, long-suffering.
He is the King of Mercy.

@ChefDViews Study the verse in context. God isn’t calling for 10% of a Christian’s money… He’s calling for 1% (10% of 10%) of Israel’s agricultural harvest.

-Current Situation-

When the people Paul warned us about are now warning us about Paul

That is the hour we are in.

Paul told you wolves would rise from among yourselves, speaking perverse things to draw away disciples (Acts 20:29-30). He told you of another Jesus, another spirit, another gospel (2 Corinthians 11:4). He told you that if any man—or an angel—preached another gospel than the one he delivered, let him be accursed (Galatians 1:8-9). He told you men would not endure sound doctrine, and would heap to themselves teachers (2 Timothy 4:3-4).

Now those men have a platform, a book deal, and a warning label: watch out for Paul.

They say he hijacked Jesus. They say the red letters override Romans. They say James 2 cancels Romans 4. They say the Twelve already had the whole program and Paul just added “religion.” They say grace is a license.

They say the mystery is a cult. They say 2 Timothy 2:15 is optional.
Paul already named them. He did not ask you to be polite when they come for his office.

“Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner” (2 Timothy 1:8).

“Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do” (Philippians 4:9).

“If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord” (1 Corinthians 14:37).

Christ committed this dispensation to Paul (Ephesians 3:1-9; Colossians 1:25-26).

To warn the Body against Paul is to warn the Body against the apostle Christ sent to the Body. That is not discernment. That is the perverse thing he said would come.

The gospel they stumble over is still the gospel: Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again (1 Corinthians 15:1-4). By grace through faith, not of works (Ephesians 2:8-9).

If that offends them, they were always going to warn you about the man who preached it.

Believe Paul. He believed Christ. The men warning you about him are the reason he wrote the warnings.

The context of the Book of Hebrews is exhortation. Many in its audience were contemplating a return to their former methods of sacrifice… it speaks to a mindset of fear.

Its author (whom I still believe to be Paul) began the book with all the ways God had spoken prior to sending His Son. He then littered the entire book with all the ways that Jesus’ work outshined everything that had gone before.
His attempt was to solidify in their hearts and minds that faith in Jesus Christ is more than enough to cleanse, cover, and renew to eternal life.

The following passage has been used to claim sin is grievous and it is. It destroys lives, and kills the spirit (God’s life in us), but the particular sin spoken of here, is the unbelief in Christ’s sacrifice. It’s in its effect, backsliding into error, which was the sin of ancient Israel.

“For if we are sinning willingly after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and zeal of fire being about to devour the adversaries. Anyone having set aside the law of Moses dies without mercies on the basis of two or three witnesses. How much worse punishment do you think he will be worthy of, the one having trampled upon the Son of God, and having deemed common the blood of the covenant in which he was sanctified, and having insulted the Spirit of grace?”

The author illustrates elsewhere the mindset of ancient Israel, too. He uses contrasts about the ability of the covenants to save. For the Old Covenant, there’s NO ability to save… as Paul also said, it’s “weak through the flesh”(Meaning all the ways we ‘save’ ourselves).
For the New Covenant, it required Jesus’ once for all and for all time sacrifice of what? Himself. He alone is able to save anyone, and He saves to the uttermost, those coming to God through Him. He “never leaves nor forsakes.” Have good day, my peeps.. 🐥🤗❤️

@martyrmade Maaaany such cases

[Martyr Made @martyrmade]

It’s always Christians who either recently converted or “rediscovered” their faith as a side effect of their political radicalization that run around calling others blasphemers and heretics.

[Dr. Andrew Farley @DrAndrewFarley]

You may have acted in a way that is contrary to your true identity, but you are still clean and close to God, no matter what.

[Dr. Andrew Farley @DrAndrewFarley]

It was the grace of God that saved us, and it is the grace of God that sustains us.

[Underclassman @deadcatbottom]

@Kabamur Your replies belie your coy claim of "just asking questions"; youre trying to dissuade Christians from faith in Christ

The questions you pose are easily answered to reveal the perfect, loving, holy and just Father of life, but my God is a demon to you

Satan also called God evil

[Underclassman @deadcatbottom]

@MomC3P91 Facts!

God is perfect Love, and only he can teach you who you are to him.

Jesus showed us this Love, forgiving us for everything and calling us to him.

When we believe in him, his Spirit makes us alive! Forever!

The Spirit is Eternal life!

[Cdpmom @MomC3P91]

Jesus didn’t come to present you with a sin management system or spiritual enlightenment, or behavior improvement. All these things the systems in the world offer, and none of them can satisfy. He came to offer dead people life through His Holy Spirit.

“If any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His”.

@Mickzo I agree that we do need one another to some degree.

Kids need parents, for example, but not if the parents are raping them.

God will Father us alone with no issue whatsoever. And eventually "he sets the lonely in families".

We do not need thrives and robbers to shepherd us.

[Underclassman @deadcatbottom]

@50ten3 @aztjk35 If he didn't do it, we're done!

Here's a concept that is foreign to most:
Everyone is forgiven, but salvation isn't forgiveness, it's being made alive (born again) by the Holy Spirit when we believed in Christ.

In the end, it's not forgiven or unforgiven, but alive or dead!

[Underclassman @deadcatbottom]

@aztjk35 @50ten3 I'm so thankful I got to live long enough to understand the Gospel 💝

So amazed at his acceptance of even me.

What a sweet, kind and generous person He is to patiently, faithfully love me through my own failure.

Like a Good Samaritan, Jesus is there!

[Underclassman @deadcatbottom]

@aztjk35 @50ten3 I often wondered if this all referred to all sin. But either way, Jesus is God himself and the call has gone out into all the world, even to a retarded gentile like me. Thanks Jesus!

[Dr. Andrew Farley @DrAndrewFarley]

Salvation means that Christ Himself is coursing through your spiritual veins.

@SillyOldPops Nothing more glorious than Massachusetts in October!

My grandfather is a Navy man, 91yrs old, who never tired of saying:

"Red sky at night, sailors' delight.
Red sky at morning, sailors take warning".

So, you know, watch out 😋

And may Jesus bless you all day long 👑

[Underclassman @deadcatbottom]

@BryceEternal You just asked the Lord to forgive you.
This means you don't believe that he's already forgiven you.
Nowhere in any epistle does Paul tell the church to ask God for forgiveness.
It is finished.
If you believe, you are eternally accepted.
Never will he leave you or forsake you.

[Underclassman @deadcatbottom]

@w_bitterman Can you lose eternal life?
