For God So Loved the World

Celebrating the Birth of Christ

The Substantial Evidence Behind the Truth of The Bible

Facts are important to understanding the truth. Since history provides substantial evidence to the accuracy of the Bible, the record of the virgin Birth of Christ can be taken as true. God wrapped himself in flesh and saved all humanity, just like He said He would. All you have to do is take Him at His Word.

For in this way the God loved the world, so that He gave His one of a kind unique Son, in order that all the ones believing in Him should not perish but have eternal life. (Jn. 3:16 LWW)

And I make known to you, brethren, the good news, which good news I brought to you, which also you received, in which also you stand, through which also you are saved by which word I brought good news to you, since you hold fast, unless you believed without an object. For I delivered unto you at first that which also I received, that Christ died concerning our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Cor. 15:1-4 LWW)

Galatians

Out from Faith verses out from Law

Galatians 4:12-31

4.12 You become as I am, because I also am as you, brethren, I urge you. You have done me no unrighteousness. 4.13 Indeed you intuitively know that through weakness in the flesh I first brought you the good news. 4.14 And my test, the one in my body, you did not despise nor reject, but as a messenger from God you received me, as Christ Jesus. 4.15 Therefore where is your happiness? For you testify concerning me that if, assuming it were true, you had the natural ability you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me. 4.16 So have I, the one telling you the truth, become your enemy? 4.17 They are zealous to you, not properly, but they desire to exclude you in order that your zeal should be to them. 4.18 And it is proper to be zealous always in doing well, and not only in my presences facing you. 4.19 My children, who again I labor in birth until which Christ is metamorphosized in you. 4.20 But I wish to be present facing you now, and to change my voice, because I am at a loss among you. 4.21 Say to me, the ones desiring to be under law, do you not listen to the law? 4.22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one out from maidservant and one out from the free woman. 4.23 But on the one hand the one out from the maidservant was born according to the flesh, on the other hand the one out form the free woman through the promise. 4.24 This […]

Galatians

Galatians

1:1 Paul an apostle, not from men nor through men, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, Who raised Him out from the dead, 1:2 and all the brethren with me, to the assemblies of the Galatia. 1:3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, 1:4 Who gave Himself concerning our sins, in order that He should deliver us out from the present malignantly evil age according to the desirous will of God even our Father, 1:5 to Whom the proper opinion (glory) into the ages of the ages. Amen.

1:6 I marvel that in this manner so quickly you change from the One who called you by grace of Christ into a different kind of gospel, 1:7 which is not the same kind; except, there are some who trouble you and desire to distort the gospel of the Christ. 1:8 But even if perhaps we or an angel out from heaven should bring good news to you which is alongside that good news already brought to you, it[1] is to be set aside[2]. 1:9 As I before said, and now again I say, “If, assuming it is true, someone brings good news to you alongside that which you have received, it is to be set aside.” 1:10 For now do I persuade men or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if yet I please men, I am not perhaps a servant belonging to Christ. 1:11 Indeed, I make known to you, brethren, the gospel, the good news brought by me, that it is not according to man. 1:12 For I did not receive it from man, nor was […]

The Law of The Christ

Caring for Members of the Body

Pastor Luther Walker

In the book of Galatians[1] Paul states that the bearing of another person’s weight[2] is filling up again the law of the Christ; yet, in Romans he writes that a Christian is not under any quality of law[3]. How do we reconcile passages of Scripture that seem to contradict each other? What does Scripture mean when it states a Christian is not under any quality of law, yet then indicates there is a law of the Christ and a law of the Spirit? Is a Christian under law or not? Ultimately this leads to the underlying question, “As a Christian, what are the guidelines for my life?” To better understand the rules of our household[4], that is to say God’s expectation for how the saved are to live their life today, we can examine how the word “law” is used in Scripture along with its normal meaning and use in everyday life so we know the difference between being under the Mosaic Law or any quality of law and filing up again the Law of the Christ by loving another saint while fulfilling the law the Spirit of life by our walk.

Since we are in the Dispensation of Grace, not the Dispensation of Law, the standard for our household is different. Scripture is very clear on the fact that a Christian is not under the Mosaic Law or any quality of law[5]; however, there is still a standard by which those who are a […]

The Basics of the Christian Life – Salvation

Salvation

Salvation comes by faith through grace. Today a person is saved by believing that Christ died for their sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day according to the Scriptures, 1 Corinthians 15:3, 41. God is offering salvation by grace, not works2. Grace is God’s attitude whereby He gives a benefit without the consideration of merit. In other words, you cannot earn salvation because God is not offering salvation based upon works, who you are, or even who you will become – no merit is considered3. What God requires for salvation is that you take Him at His Word. Faith is the undergirding4 of that which is hoped for, the evidence of accomplished deeds5 not seen and is always based upon a promise6. Direct faith at Christ through the facts of the good news by which we are saved (believing that He died for your […]
