Subject: ten commandments are they valid today |
Bible Note: I personally know about John Darby and Miles Stanford. I have read and agree with Stanford, and many at the church I attend know about these other teachers, even if I have not read some of the teachings of the others. I believe in what the bible teaches; that we are saved by Grace through faith in his finished work on the cross, and we are secure in that. I believe Christ's death opened up a whole new thing, a new way that freed me not only from God's judgement, but from sin as well. I rest upon His finished work on the cross for everything. I believe that his death was my death, his burial was my burial at baptism, that in him I rose a new man through his resurrection, and that I ascended to the heavenlies with him. I believe his death is working in me as we speak, and that his life is making me into what He sees fit. Although I believe I play a active role in this, it is by his power that I can do these things. I believe and know that Christ deserves all the glory for what he has done for me, and what he will work through me. In everything I do, I seek to show that it is not I, but Christ. My mistakes are of course my own, and I come before him quickly and know that there is forgiveness. I seek always to keep short accounts, and to submit my life and will to him for his glory, and for his will. |
