When A Seat Of Mercy Becomes A Throne Of Grace

Contributed by Everett Mccoy on Jul 13, 2008

Contrasts God’s relationship with man in the Old and New Covenants. When God set up residence on earth, He called his throne the Mercy Seat. But at Calvary both the name and the location changed - to the Throne of Grace.

Will What A Christian Has Done Be Judged Publicly Before Everyone?

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 17, 2014

For the Christian, will our sins "be shown on a big screen for everyone to see"? I argue that while we are forgiven and saved by grace, our sins will be brought up at the Bema Judgment because they impact our fruitfulness.

I disagree. - The issue, of course, is not the big screen, but rather whether in the process of being ...read more
