Obedience To God

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Aug 13, 2020

Does God Ever Withdraw His Favor?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Mar 15, 2022

There is a belief in the church that when a Born-Again Christian sins or walks in disobedience, God withdraws His favor and blessings to punish them.

This belief is rooted in the Old Testament, where a relationship with God was conditionally based upon behavior. The Hebrew words translated as ‘favor’ are ‘ratson’ and ‘ratsah.’ The word ‘ratson’ is translated as favor, goodwill, acceptance, desire, pleasure. It most often represents God ...read more

Contributed by Greg Nance on Feb 18, 2010

Revelation leaves us gasping for breath when we see God’s response to the saints prayers. When God sends even his limited judgments against his enemies... "Woe, woe, woe! is about all that can describe it.

Take the book of Revelation and remove it from its historical foundation and give it to scholars with a fertile imagination and let them consider their present situation and they will surely make a new application or see it as a biblical alegorization. Revelation 8-11 shows us how the saints’ ...read more

Punishment Pays For Sin (Exodus 32:15-35, Isaiah 53:1-6) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 10, 2023

Sometimes, God is unwilling to "carry" sin; it has to be paid for through punishment. This idea, supported by Isaiah 40, unlocks the Suffering Servant of Isaiah 53. Jesus atoned, by taking the punishment of our sin.
