There is a group of people on this Forum that profess to be Christians, but there is no spiritual evidence that they are Christians, The apostle John said, "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits to see if they be of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world"...

The entrance into heaven is by faith in Christ and his Gospel. No one will be saved that has not embraced this Gospel as their only means of salvation. It is Satan's purpose to hide and confuse this Gospel. Jesus said, "Few there be that find it" Matthew 7:14. Few there be that find it...

The words law and religion basically mean the same thing. When one is doing the law they are doing their religion. When one is doing their religion they are doing the law. "Knowing this that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have...

I am not through with this Forum just yet. I still have a few things to say to the many Gospel hating, religious reprobates on this Forum that are hell bound. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE BORN AGAIN? Jesus said, "That which is born of flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit...

A Christmas Message By Bill Gravestock Two thousand years ago, when the fullness of time had come, God the Son, our savior, Jesus Christ left heaven because all of its stupendous glory was not a place to be desired while we were lost. He whom angels love, adore and worship, stepped down from...

The religion of the Pharisees was the law. They took the first five books of the Old Testament and came up with the Torah. There are over 600 laws and rules in the Torah. Jesus was not pleased that they did that. The law tells us to do something or not to do something. You would think that...

Satan has convinced multitudes that they are saved when they are not. The Holy Spirit is God's mark of ownership. All that have been bought by Christ belong to God and are indwelt with the Holy Spirit. They have heard the Gospel, they have believed the Gospel and have been born again by the...

I have been wrongfully accused of teaching heresy. I do not teach heresy, I teach what the Bible says, I believe the same Gospel that the apostle Paul preached. I do not attend or support any religious denomination. Those that have accused me of teaching heresy were never able to support...

This will probably be my last article on the Forum. There is so much hostility towards the Gospel and justification by faith on this Forum that it is almost impossible to post something without being personally attacked by the adversaries of the Gospel and justification by faith. Paul wrote...

After my massive heart attack on May 30th I have been thinking a lot about death. While I was experiencing the heart attack I had no fear of death. I really thought that this was it, I was going to die, but I was not afraid. As the paramedics loaded me into the ambulance I said to my wife...

The Bible says that Christ is in us by the Holy Spirit, but it also says that Christ is in heaven as our advocate and mediator, Hebrews 8:6. If Paul would have known that the Catholic church was going to use those passages of "Christ in us" to produce a holiness religion he would have written...

The way that seems right unto a man is the way of religion. Any way other than salvation by grace through faith is the way that leads to Spiritual death. Jesus said, "Enter in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate and broad is the way, that leads to destruction and many there be that go...

"He came unto his own and his own received him not" John 1:11. The Jews were the first ones to reject Christ. Not all rejected him, but many did. Why did they reject him? They rejected him for many reasons, but the main reason was that he did not fit into their religion. Jesus was not...

Please help me. I cannot access the Chat Box.

It is not the Gospel plus Calvinism, nor is it the Gospel plus Catholicism. If it is the Gospel plus something, it is not the Gospel and is another Gospel. The Galatians were led to believe that it was the Gospel plus the law. This is why Paul wrote, "I marvel that you are so soon removed...
