This section of the website contains a series of posts which explain the Gospel "message of truth" as it was "once for all [time] handed down to the saints" in NT Scripture. We will begin by offering some helpful notes…
The Gospel
In days and centuries past, men understood and acknowledged that there was a God, even if they chose not to obey Him (Act 17:23; Rom 1:20–22; cf. 2Co 4:4). But in today’s modern, so-called “enlightened” society dominated by public opinion…
We see it written, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (i.e., this universe; Gen 1:1; cf. Gen 1:1–2:25; Exo 20:11; 1Ch 16:26; Pro 3:19–20; 8:22–30; Psa 8:3–8; 33:6; 75:3; 102:25; 104:24; 115:15; 121:2; 124:8; 136:5; Isa…
Before we can continue further, we must deal with some of the false teachings of man that are masquerading as science. Many people are mistakenly under the impression that science has disproven the Bible simply because that is what they…
Man disobeyed God, and sin entered. God placed the first humans, Adam and Eve, in the “garden of Eden” and gave them a few simple rules to obey (Gen 2:8, 15). All they had to do was believe, trust,…
God will only allow Satan’s and humanity’s rebellion (sin) to continue for a while. “He has fixed a day” (Act 17:31; cf. Jud 14–15) still yet to come called “the day of judgment” (2Pe 2:9; 3:7; Mat 10:15; 11:22, 24;…
Scripture warns us explicitly and repeatedly to “be on the alert” (Mat 24:36–25:13; Mar 13:35–37; Act 20:31; 1Co 16:13; Eph 6:18; 1Th 5:2–4; Rev 3:3; 16:15) for Jesus’ return, as “the day of judgment” will arrive suddenly (i.e., “quickly,”…
We now start to turn away from death and toward “eternal life” (Mat 19:16, 29; 25:46; Mar 10:29–30; Luk 18:30; Joh 3:14–17, 36; 4:13–14; 5:24; 6:27, 35–40, 47; 10:28; 17:1–3; Act 13:48; Rom 2:7; 5:21; 6:22–23; Gal 6:8; 1Ti 1:16;…
When you are “born again,” you are an “infant in Christ” (see 1Co 3:1–2; cf. “little ones,” Mat 10:42; 18:3–10), a new baby Christian, if you will, and immature in the faith. You must continually “grow in the grace…
It is important to understand the nature of salvation. Some think that the Gospel, salvation, and eternal life are just about being “born again” (Joh 3:3–8; 1Pe 1:3, 23). But being born again is only the first (but by far…
