To easily understand end times, look through the lens of Inaugurated Eschatology with an amillennial, post-tribulation rapture perspective. Unfortunately, when someone hasn’t intentionally studied eschatology, they usually end up believing what they unknowingly sponged from mainstream pop culture, which happens to be some form of premillennialism. Almost every major cult in the world (ie: JW’s, […]
The gifts of the Holy Spirit are given freely to believers for the benefit of serving and encouraging others. These 9 gifts are meant to be faithfully stewarded and actively used, but only the way that Jesus would use them (in self-sacrificial love and humility). 1 Cor 12, 1 Cor 14:1, 1 Thess 5:20
Jesus Christ ascended to heaven in a physical body. During His last day on the earth, at the time of His earthly ministry, Jesus was raptured. The words “ascension” and “rapture” are perfectly synonymous. Both words define being lifted up vertically from the earth into the clouds. Jesus was in His immortal and eternal body
The process of sanctification is entirely by God’s grace alone, as Christians do not become more holy by their own good works, but rather by the power of the Holy Spirit. Gal 3:3, Eph 2:8-9, 1 Cor 1:29-30, Rom 1:17 NLT, Phil 1:6
Faith in Jesus without good works results in decay and death for the soul of the individual. Consequently, faith in Jesus with good works results in health and abundant life for the soul of the individual, but this has nothing to do with eternal salvation. People are saved by faith in Jesus alone without the
Jesus was not forsaken in the soul or spirit, but only in the flesh. Jesus being forsaken means that He was given over into the hands of sinful men (the Romans) and God the Father didn’t send any angels to save Him from the agony of the cross. “God turning His face away”, or “God
Marriage is between one man and one woman. Homosexuality is a sin. Human life begins at conception. Romans 1:26-27, 1 Cor 6:9-11, Lev 18:22, Lev 20:13, 1 Tim 1:10 NLT
We are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, according to Scripture alone, all for the glory of God alone.
The coming of the Kingdom of God was inaugurated by Jesus’ ministry, death, and resurrection, and it will be fully realized on the Day when Christ returns in glory to establish His complete and total reign over all the earth. It will be heaven (His kingdom) on earth once again just like the garden of
Immediately after Jesus’ death on the cross, He entered into heaven (paradise). Next, His body was taken and placed into the earth (the grave). Jesus did not descend into hell. Jesus descending to hell after His death is according to the catholic heresy purported forth from the false gospel of Nicodemus. Jesus never rose from hell,
All sin must be rejected. Holy Christian living and a continual turning away from sin (keeping in step with repentance) is the only way to live a godly life. 2 Tim 1:9, Rom 6:1-2, Luke 3:8
Through His blood and the free gift of the Holy Spirit, Jesus has united all of God’s people in heaven and earth into one spiritual body, despite man-made denominations and sects. John 17:20-23, Gal 3:28, Eph 4:11-13, Psalm 133:1, Phil 2:1-3
The people of God on earth have 2 natures: an old sinful nature and a new holy eternal nature. When Jesus returns, He will obliterate the temporary sinful nature in the believer, and only the new eternal nature will remain forever. Unbelievers have only 1 nature: a sinful nature. Jesus has only 1 nature as
There is One True God eternally existent in 3 distinct Persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. 3 Persons who share the same divine nature (3-in-1; God’s nature). Deut 6:4, Isa 43:10-11, Matt 28:18-20, Luke 3:22, 1 John 5:7 NKJV
Jesus Christ has one, single, and unchanging nature for all time. God the Father and God the Holy Spirit share this exact same nature. 3 Persons who share the same divine nature (3-in-1; God’s nature). It should be noted that catholicism falsely teaches that Jesus has 2 natures, which is also known as the hypostatic
Jesus is God in totality at all times. He is fully God and fully Man (except without sin). He is omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, immutable, immortal, invincible, and infinite at all points and at all times. 2 Cor 5:16, Heb 13:8, Col 2:9, Col 1:15-20, John 16:30, John 21:17, Heb 1:2-3
The Scriptures are divinely inspired, infallible, and supremely authoritative over everything in heaven and on earth. God’s Word, in the original Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic manuscripts, was written over the course of 1500 years by over 40 different authors, but ultimately it was composed by the Holy Spirit. 2 Tim 3:15-17, 1 Thess 2:13, 2
We sinned, and Jesus paid the price. To be saved from eternal torment in hell, a person must repent (turn away) from all sin and believe (trust) that Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross is the only option for the entirety of all of their sins to be removed. Salvation is a free gift (0%
Jesus Christ is God to the highest degree. He is uncreated and has existed forever, was conceived in a virgin’s womb, lived a sinless life, performed many miraculous signs and wonders, provided a sacrificial and substitutional death on a cross, was buried, was resurrected bodily 3 days later, ascended to the Father, will return in
