QUESTIONS ABOUT SAVE BY GRACE

  Is the Faith and Work Message an Attempt to Earn Our Own Salvation? Hugh Whelchel February 9, 2015 TWITTER   FACEBOOK   LINKEDIN   EMAIL   SUBSCRIBE   PRINT Recently I was speaking on faith and work at a conference and someone asked, “Aren’t you just talking about works righteousness?”   I assured them I wasn’t, but I can see how it could’ve sounded that way. I’m not the only one running into this problem. Several years ago Mark Roberts at  The High Calling  interviewed N. T. Wright, and  Wright  talked  about this works righteousness misunderstanding that is often voiced about the importance of our work: What you do in the present matters. It’s hard for Protestants to hear that without thinking, “Oh, dear, this is good works again.” That’s a scare tactic. Sometimes, it’s a political scare tactic – to stop Christians from actively working to change the way the world is, confronting justice, and building communities of peace a...

  Atmosphere of the Supernatural-The Mighty Jesus Acts 10:38 –  God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, He went about doing good. Jesus is the son of God, the only begotten of the father John 3:16. He was anointed with God’s power and the Holy Spirit. Jesus is a good man. He had compassion on people. He cares, He loves, He feels what you are feeling. A time came that Jesus had to weep. According to Acts 10:38, Jesus went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. The bible did not say that He healed some, but all. It does not matter what situation you find yourself in, Jesus us here to deliver you from all of it. Jesus declared that the spirit of God is upon him, because God has anointed him to preach the good tidings to the poor. Who is God?  God is the creator of the heavens and the earth. We are talking about the Almighty God. There are so many gods, idols, deities but He is the greatest and...

  Placenta Spiritually Revered, But Not in the West This afterbirth has spiritual and religious significance in different parts of the world, says Y.W. Loke in this excerpt from “Life’s Vital Link.” But perhaps it’s overlooked in Western culture since birth has “become so cold and clinical.” Y.W. Loke July 28, 2013 Share: Credit: philohme on Flickr, under Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-SA 2.0). (WOMENSENEWS)– The cycle of life and death is inevitable. Birth is when the placenta dies and the baby’s life begins. With the baby’s first independent breath, the placenta is no longer needed. It has nursed the baby through a potentially perilous intrauterine odyssey. Now the job is done. The clamping of the cord heralds the final parting of the ways. No wonder many cultures today treat the placenta with great respect and even look upon it with genuine affection. It is not just superstition or religious belief. There is a deep sense of loss that, when one life comes into being, another has ende...
