SIN DOESN'T SEND MAN TO HELL....Bear With Me...lol
There is a misconception among believers that SIN is what separates them from God. That in order to find favor with God they must not do any thing "bad".
According to scripture there is only ONE condition that will not be forgiven, and it isn't suicide (another misunderstood topic) and that is according to Matt 12:31 ""Therefore I say to you, any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven people, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven."...meaning, that if one hears the gospel... -

Study of Systematic Theology
Question for anyone that has completed a serious study of Systematic Theology. Is there a preferred order of things? I have several different complete works of Systematic Theology, and the written orders are somewhat different. I guess in the long run it doesn't matter, but I seem to think that maybe starting with Angelology then doing Anthropology would be a good way to start. One of my works starts with Theology Proper, and one ends with the same. Anyway, any suggestions or experiences... -
This their sin, God was pleased
From the Westminster confession: Of the Fall of Man, of Sin, and the Punishment thereof
I. Our first parents, being seduced by the subtilty and temptations of Satan, sinned, in eating the forbidden fruit. This their sin, God was pleased, according to His wise and holy counsel, to permit, having purposed to order it to His own glory.
I thought that God hates sin.
If love thinks the best, why would God expect His creation to fail?
That is not love, and God is love. This contradicts. -
The Carpenter's Chapel (10)
Ryle on Matthew 6
Let us learn from our Lord's words about the "single eye," the true secret of the failures which so many Christians seem to make in their religion. There are failures in all quarters. There are thousands in our churches uncomfortable, ill at ease, and dissatisfied with themselves; and they hardly know why. The reason is revealed here: they are trying to keep in with both sides; they are endeavouring to please God and please man, to serve Christ and serve the world at... -
Jesus as savior ... what about Jesus as Lord?
This is a question to be debated in a workshop in the coming week. I'd like your input.
Can a person accept Christ as savior, but not as Lord? -
Question about divorce
I have a question regarding divorce. I was saved and baptised a few years before I reconnected with my childhood friend and eventually got married. He was saved 7 months before the wedding. It was a huge change for him, and although I didnt see too much fruit, he sure did try. He was abusive and I thought I had " biblical" grounds for a divorce. I filed. Even though I never wanted it. He returned the favor by agreeing to the divorce. By this time, I was devasted and wanted to save my... -

Did Christ die for Judas the traitor ?
Did Christ die for Judas the traitor ? Jesus said of Judas Jn 6:70
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
I emphasize the number one here because some will say that Christ called Peter a devil when He said this Matt 16:23
But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
So if Jesus was calling Peter a devil here then Christ... -
