Will Grace Cause You to Sin?
Posted on June 25, 2014 1 Comment
Have you ever heard some well-meaning Christian say that too much of grace will cause people to sin? Probably. That warning, unfortunately, accomplishes just the opposite of what is intended. Inadvertently, it is actually encouraging believers to take their eyes off of Jesus to some degree (however small), in order to

Life can be draining. Going from where you are to where you need to be is exhausting. Sometimes getting out of bed is the last thing you want to do. I know; I’ve been there. But be encouraged! Listen to these words recorded by the Apostle John. So He came to a city of Samaria […]

How many conditions do you need to meet to be blessed by God? Three, two, or one? The answer is one. That’s right, just one! And here it is. For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was

His father killed him. He showed him no mercy. Killed him in a most terrible manner. Slowly, painfully, intentionally. He slaughtered his own son. A son that was all a father could wish for. A son who honored his father. A son he loved. He killed his own son!

How great are you? Greater than the greatest of all prophets! You don’t believe me? Perhaps, you’ll believe Jesus. But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet. This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy […]

God will never be angry with His children again. Never! “That is not true.” “Yes, it is.” “No, it isn’t.” “Yes, it is.” “Prove it!” “Ok, I will.” Do you believe that God will ever again destroy the earth by a flood? I’m sure, if you are a Bible-believing Christian, you will answer with a […]

“Behold, the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world!” This was His mission. He came to do this. To take away the sins of the world! The Father wanted it done. He could not stand the separation sin produced. He would tolerate it no longer. The problem behind that awful separation […]
Please Be Seated

No chair was permitted in the Old Testament earthly sanctuary. God did not allow the Levitical priests to sit. He required them to remain on their feet continually. Why? Their work was not finished. And He wanted to make sure no one coming to the temple would get the impression that it was. As long […]
That Belongs In the Garbage!

Two men went to the altar to pray. One was a Pharisee. He obeyed the Law meticulously. He fasted weekly, paid his tithes faithfully, offered all the sacrifices required, and was among the most morally upright in Israel. The other was a publican, a notorious sinner. He stood no chance of being heard, or so […]
Plucked-Out Eyes and Cut-off Arms

Did Jesus really believe in salvation by grace? From the way he preached, one could easily think He did not. On many occasions He made statements that contradicted Paul’s Gospel. Here is a sampling from the Sermon in the Mount. For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the […]
