Is It Possible That Christians Are Not Sinners Saved By Grace - Part 1? Series

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 15, 2018

This is the first of three messages that will ultimately answer the question "Now that we are born again with God's life and nature and no longer have a sin nature why do we sin?"

Fifteen years ago I learned a simple truth from scripture. It’s a truth that explains why Christians commit sin after they are born again. It’s a truth that disagrees with a teaching that goes virtually unchallenged in the Body of Christ. The teaching I’m talking about is “I am a sinner saved by ...read more

Dead Man Walking

Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Jun 25, 2017

In some of the Prisons in the United States when a prisoner is taken to be executed the guard that is leading the procession continual shouts out, Dead man walking. Death came to us through sin; causing each human being to be a "Dead Man Walking"!

Grace Truimphs Over Every Sin, Every Time

Contributed by Michael Forsyth on Jul 10, 2017

Original sin does not rate highly on a Christians favourite doctrine. However, understanding that all have sinned in Adam, and therefore will die, is the starting point for God's solution, the second Adam, Jesus.

Messiah As The New Adam

Naturalized Citizens

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Oct 28, 2019

All of us are viewed by God as either in Adam or in Christ; if we are in Adam, we are doomed to eternal death (separation from God); if we are in Christ, we are destined for eternal life.

Headship Of Christ Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 21, 2018

There are some who will object by saying, “Why should I suffer, why should I burn in hell for Adam’s disobedience to God’s command?” You will not! If you burn in hell it will not be because of Adam’s transgression.

Headship of Christ Romans 5:15-21 15 But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many. 16 And the gift is not like that which ...read more

Jesus: The Second Adam Series

Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 15, 2014

When you think of Old Testament shadows of Christ, Adam usually is not at the top of the list. This lesson shows why he should be near the top of your list.

A Tale Of Four Kings Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 30, 2014

Do you remember what happened to Adam when he sinned? He died immediately in his spirit, he died gradually in his soul, and he died ultimately in his body. But salvation reverses it.
