    The Trap Of Another Gospel

    Contributed by Eric Wright on Jul 3, 2022
     | 1,998 views

    To surrender to the Judaizers was to negate the glory of the cross of Christ and to make the death of Christ on Calvary of no effect

    The Trap of another gospel Galatians 1:6-10 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, ...read more

    We are called by Jesus to offer cups of cold water to the widows, poor and fatherless of this world but how is a believer to balance this command with also being good stewards of God's resources? For instance are we called to give to the takers of this world and if so in what manner?

    The Desire to do Good 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 “It is a loss, perhaps, to give to a man who wastes, but it will be a greater loss not to give at all!” Charles Spurgeon Jesus told believers that “from the one who has been ...read more

    The devil is a cruel cunning foe. To be vigilant against his attacks is not only a duty but also a mandatory essential to life.

    And Satan stood up against Israel and provoked David to number Israel.

     | 1,354 views

    Satan is a personality with definite character traits. It is character that gives dignity and value to a person, or character degrades a person. Character is the inner life of a person that forms his actions and shapes his life.

    Put on the full armor of God so that you can fight against the devil’s evil tricks. (Ephesian 6:11) One of the major factors in every form of warfare is reconnaissance. We see that dimension of warfare in the Bible and in our contemporary world. Reconnaissance is carrying out a ...read more

    One of the major rules of engagement in this battle is ‘walking in love.” Once you drift into revenge, bitterness, unforgiveness, grudge, and malice, you have given Satan the advantage over you.

    Does Fate and Will of God are the same. There is a Will of Decree, and a Will of Commandment. God takes control of everything. We need to discern his Will in every act of our lives. Word of God leads and guides.

    In Ephesians 5:15-17, God shows us through the Apostle Paul shows us how to use biblical wisdom to discover the will of God. He shows us how to discover this through: 1) Understanding (Ephesians 5:15), 2) Occasion (Ephesians 5:16), 3) Action (Ephesians 5:17).

    Ephesians 5:15-17 [15] Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, [16] making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. [17] Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. (ESV) Most of us acknowledge that God has a plan for the life of every ...read more

     | 5,830 views

    The ministry of the Holy Spirit allows us to hear from God; to discern His voice. Therefore, prayer, meditation, and knowing the voice of Him is critical! Do we know His truth over the noise of everything else competing for our attention?

    Testing the Spirits 1 John Bible Study, Part 9 1 John 4:1-6 Introduction - John gives us an incredible truth to hold onto (20) -- We will fail, even though we desire to be holy and to live right for God -- However, even in that, God knows our heart and knows everything we are -- Even in ...read more

    Is this pandemic God’s judgement against us? I am reluctant to say it, but what else can it be? It certainly ought to wake up all Americans to our responsibilities to restore goodness to our land.

    Gideon, Scientist Here in the Book of Judges, we see a very sad history. It’s not unlike some of the ages in our nation’s history, including the one we are laboring in today. Time after time we read that “The people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord gave them into ...read more

     | 6,104 views

    The importance of the role of the Holy Spirit is extolled as an additional and vital empirical tool. Empiricism limited to only perception through sight, sound, smell, taste and touch falls short of the epistemological opportunities afforded us by God.

    (If you have found this sermon helpful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) It should not be misconstrued that Christians believe in three gods. God is one. The Creator Father, the Redeemer Son, and the Counselor Holy Spirit are three manifestations ...read more
