Two opposing messages are preached today: the false gospel of grace plus works and the true gospel of the apostles—grace alone. This is not a minor difference; it determines whether a person receives eternal life or faces eternal destruction. […]
The Same Message the Apostles Preached to Everyone
Listen carefully to what God says:
Every single one of us was born already separated from God and spiritually dead because of sin (Ephesians 2:1–3). Sin came into the world through the first man, Adam, and because of that, death came to everyone—because everyone has sinned (Romans 5:12). The Bible says plainly: no one is good enough, not even one person (Romans 3:10). We were born enemies of God, headed straight to the lake of fire—eternal punishment that was made for the devil and his angels (Revelation 20:14–15). Unless God steps in with mercy, every person is already condemned (John 3:18). […]
Two Separate Identities from the Beginning
The Roman Catholic Church (RCC) is not the historic Christian Church. It is a distinct religious institution that arose centuries after the apostles and has always opposed the Apostles’ gospel. Bible-believing Christians have held to the first-century faith since Pentecost. The two identities must never be mixed. […]
John 10:27-29 (NASB) “My sheep listen to My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give them eternal life, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out […]
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of the Christian faith—and one of the most thoroughly investigated events in antiquity. If true, it confirms that Jesus is exactly who He claimed to be: the promised Messiah, the Son of God, and the Savior of the world. If false, Christianity is built on a lie (1 Corinthians 15:14–19). […]
The warning in 2 Thessalonians 2 is terrifying, yet it contains unbreakable hope for every true believer. A strong delusion is descending upon the earth, but no born-again child of God will ever fall under its power. Why? Because the moment you believed the gospel you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise as the guarantee of your inheritance until the day of redemption (Ephesians 1:13-14; 4:30). That seal is God’s eternal “No Access” sign posted over your life. The Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you; He will cause every genuine believer to awaken, recognise the delusion for what it is, and proclaim the truth with ever-increasing clarity and boldness. […]
For the believer, understanding your identity in Christ is foundational. It shapes how you read Scripture, live daily, and interpret end-time prophecy. Misidentify as a “Gentile Christian” separate from Israel, and you’ll misread God’s promises, twist eschatology, and miss what He’s doing right now in history. […]
Man’s standard of goodness is a sliding scale—relative, flexible, self-defined.
We have all kinds of standards: cultural, personal, situational.
God’s standard is perfection.
“Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect” (Matthew 5:48).
God doesn’t grade on a curve. One sin—any sin—makes you guilty before a holy God.
“For whoever keeps the whole Law, yet stumbles in one point, has become guilty of all” (James 2:10).
Let’s test your goodness by God’s perfect standard—the Ten Commandments. […]
Perfect Love Drives Out Fear *“There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.”* (1 John 4:18, NASB) […]
Some Christians, including Seventh-day Adventists and other Sabbath-keepers, insist that observing Saturday as the Sabbath is a test of faith or necessary for salvation. They often argue that the Sabbath is an “everlasting law” distinct from the “sacrificial law” Christ fulfilled, or that the Ten Commandments remain binding. These claims lack biblical support and risk preaching a false gospel, which Paul warns brings a curse and leads to eternal danger. This blog clarifies: Jesus is our Sabbath Rest, a Person, not a day. We’ll address questions raised about the Sabbath’s permanence, compare the Sabbath-keepers’ gospel with Paul’s gospel, and show how we are saved by grace alone through faith in Christ alone—not works. If we trust in a false gospel, we are not saved and face the peril of Hell, but God promises eternal salvation to those who repent and trust in Christ’s finished work. […]
