1 | no gospel equal go to hell? | Bible general Archive 1 | Russ | 23807 | ||
Also, as someone else said, opportunity is a key concept here. If you live in America and have access to bazillions of Christian churches, radio and TV ministries, Billy Graham crusades, etc etc and still refuse to hear what God says, you have decidedly rejected Christ even if you have not heard the gospel. You will enter eternity Christless without hope and pay the price for sin yourself instead of letting Christ bear it for you. Make the right choice please. John 14:6, 3:3. See also John 3:36. In Christ, Russ | ||||||
2 | Are we to follow the old testament? | Bible general Archive 1 | Russ | 23806 | ||
We do not forget completely about the old. Remember Hebrews 13:8, Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever! God did not change because of instituting a new covenant! Jesus said in Mt 5:17 that He came not to abolish the law or the prophets, but that He came to fulfill them. Galatians 3:24 says "Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith." So you see, Christ fulfilled the Law as we know it in the Old Testament so that we could be led into grace. The Lord knew mankind could never fulfill the Law anyway because of the sin nature we have all inherited. Now we have grace. Ephesians 2:8-9 "For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;not as a result of works, so thatno one may boast." We should as born again Christians endeavor to do all contained in the commandments, but recognize that we cannot meet that standard and even if we could, it would not justify nor save us. Jesus gave us new marching orders! First, to love God with all our heart, soul and mind, secondly; to love our neighbor as ourselves, "for in these all the commandments are fulfilled". The old testament is important, but today it is the new covenant that Christ has brought to us. I am saved by grace and by partnering with that and you are too if you say yes to Christ! Bless you! |

3 | What is unevenly yoked? | Bible general Archive 1 | Russ | 23805 | ||
This condition will always lead to some degree of friction and can be a barrier to intimacy. Nonetheless, continue to honor your marital vows. Don't put the other down. A Christian should continue to demonstrate a joy from the Lord and honor their spouse. Honoring one's spouse doesn't mean you agree with everything. Then pray for them and pray that the Lord will open the eyes of the heart and soften soil for truth to come true. Again, honor each other, love one another and the Lord will bless this attitude! | ||||||
