Here is the video -- about one minute Here is the text of the video: The Gospel In A Nutshell: "2 Cor. 5:21 He made Him who knew no sin, to be sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. Let me unpack those 15 Greek words: He God made Jesus sin. What do you mean He made Jesus sin? Only in one sense: He treated Him as if He had committed every sin ever committed by every person who would believe though in fact Jesus committed none of them. Hanging on The Cross he was Holy, Harmless, and Undefiled. Hanging on The Cross He was the Spotless Lamb, He was never a split second a sinner. He was Holy God on The Cross, but God is treating Him -I'll put it more practically, as if He had lived my life. God punished Jesus for my sin, turns right around and treats me as if I had lived His life. That's the great doctrine of Substitution and on that doctrine turned the whole reformation of the Christian Church, that is the heart of the gospel and what you get is complete forgiveness covered by the righteousness of Jesus Christ. When God looks at The Cross He sees you and when He looks at you He sees Christ." __John MacArthur JAG [] Thoughts? 1
` That was a heart warming comment. _________ Then this: Do you not think that the Trog's often times come out of their caves and bask in the sun, thereby needing sunscreen? Best JAG [] Scot me up Beamy. `
Philemon is the shortest book in the Bible, and I believe it provides a good example of Paul acting as a good example.- https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philemon&version=NIV Onsimus was a slave that took off and stole his owner's things. Not unlike a sinner taking off and justifying sin. Paul could have just demanded Onesimus, he had that authority over Philemon. So is Paul's plea for a lowly slave an example of Jesus's plea for redeemed sinners? Yup.
I hold the same position as does John MacArthur. I say Amen X's 10 to everything in the video. Best JAG []
Ok. Fair enough. I happen to disagree with some of his major points. Especially when it comes to the Trinity.
` i understand. It seems these days that humans agree on very little. The world of the 21st century is characterized by Bellum Omnium Contra Omnes Hobbes' War Of All Against All And that condition is also true within Christendom. Best JAG []
Near death experiencer Kevin Zadai Th. D. was shown that Messiah Yeshua - Jesus also went to hell for the time before He was resurrected...... details are given in that NDE that can inspire all Christians...... that is chapter six of his book that is his first Theology Course... and it is free of charge... you just need to sign up with an e-mail..... I assume Jesus went to Paradise for the hour or so before sunset.... on the Wednesday in which He was crucified and buried.... because the First Day of Unleavened Bread in thirty one C. E. fell on a Thursday..... https://kevinzadai.com
BRILLIANTLY STATED JAG!!!!!!!!!! YES.... I am a Christian, [ or Messianic Jew or Messianic Gentile????}.... and I plead GUILTY to NOT obeying the fairly clear command from Messiah Yeshua - Jesus - Issa..... "Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver theeto the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, andthou be cast into prison." (Matthew 5:25) Recently..... Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau turned Canada's Liberal Party into a political weapon that he used against his opponents..... [kind of like a certain somebody else south of the forty ninth parallel????}....... I plead guilty to having a JONAH COMPLEX... I feel like Canada's Liberal Party became a great big fish..... and swallowed me while I was back home in Nova Scotia.... and then the great big fish spit me out here in Mississauga!!!!! I believe that I have a responsibility to PARTLY AGREE with my debating opponents...... I am not ready yet to be baptized as a Latter day Saint, [partly because I work from six am to two thirty and if I didn't have two or three cups of coffee along with my MSM in the morning..... I am not sure that I would not fall asleep during my shift???????????] Anyway...... I do believe though that PEACE AND SHALOM AND SALAM IN THE MIDDLE EAST..... WILL EMERGE OUT OF BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY CAMPUS IN JERUSALEM!!!!! I have very strong feelings about the Latter day Saints leading most Christian churches in repenting of our being overly argumentative..... and being unwilling to PARTLY AGREE with our debating opponents.... even if they are significantly correct!!!!!! I would like to say that my Muslim Brothers and Sisters have a brilliant PROPHECY that I believe is the perfect answer to an IMPENDING BEAR MARKET, [ANOTHER 1929], AS WELL AS A VASTLY BETTER ANSWER TO THE THREAT OF RISING OCEAN LEVELS........ THAT COULD HAPPEN QUICKLY IF Biden's handlers who seem intent on escalating what could turn into WWIV ..... but Biden's and Trudeau's handlers fail..... and instead the next ten years are going to be AWESOME!!!!!!!!! Book 005, Number 2208: "Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (way peace be upon him) as saying: The Last Hour will not come before wealth becomes abundant and overflowing, so much so that a man takes Zakat out of his property and cannot find anyone to accept it from him and till the land of Arabia becomes meadows and rivers." SAHIH MUSLIM, BOOK 25: The Book on General Behaviour (Kitab Al-Adab) THE KEY IS TO WEAN CHRISTIAN CHARITIES OFF OF FULL FLEDGED CHARITY, [ZAKAT], AND INSTEAD AT LEAST A TOKEN PAYMENT SHOULD BE MADE FOR PRODUCTS THAT ARE DONATED TO VARIOUS CHARITIES..... AND CHARITIES SHOULD BE ABLE TO WORK WITH EACH OTHER ACROSS PHILOSOPHICAL BOUNDARIES!!!!!!!! I admit it.... I do realize that this is NOT going to be an easy concept to sell to Christians.... who have became addicted to full fledged charity...... and the idea of making a token payment..... [or perhaps a PROP PRICE], WILL TERRIFY MOST PROFESSIONAL CHRISTIANS WHO DO NOT BELIEVE THAT MESSIAH YESHUA JESUS ISSA WILL BLESS THEM.... IF THEY WILL OBEY HIS ADMONITION TO "agree with thine ADVERSARY quickly!!!!" Brigham Young University in Jerusalem and peace in the Middle East Actually.... I do have a rather serious update on that ancient Islamic prediction about the deserts of the Islamic nations being turned GREEN!!!!! DESERTS ARE TURNING GREEN - HAPPENING NOW (BIG SIGN) "How to green the world's deserts and reverse climate change | Allan Savory " As you can see from a video that I did back in 2010... I do feel rather strongly about this topic. I actually campaigned on this concept back in 2008 www.BankingSystemsFlaws.blogspot.ca/ The Greening of the Sahara 1,237 views Jul 30, 2010
The same thoughts I have about most posts trying to explain/defend Christianity. It makes absolutely no sense. The all powerful creator of the universe has taken an unnatural interest in the activities or a group of primates living on an unremarkable planet orbiting an unremarkable star in an unremarkable part of an unremarkable galaxy. This creator's ego is so fragile that he has set up a system of punishment if any of creatures should defy him they will spend eternity being tortured. Thousands of years after setting up this system he decides it's too cruel. But instead of doing away with the system he impregnates one of the creatures with a version of himself so that he may sacrifice that version of himself to himself in order to spare those creatures from a punishment he instituted in the first place. Oh yeah and this creator, for whatever reason, is very concerned with what I do with my pee pee. Makes PERFECT sense.
