Jesus Christ is the God of the Old Testament scriptures

The Greek word that is often translated as “earth” is the word γη. It can simply refer to a localized portion of land rather than the entire planet. It’s perfectly reasonable to interpret this as Jesus saying it is the smallest seed in the land of Israel. Not the globe.

The only people the Spirit regenerates are unbelievers

That game was epic! Go USA!!

I recently completed my Level 1 ABC Counseling certification through my local church Summit Church of Southwest Florida! I’m looking forward to continuing on to Level 2 to be able to counsel others with scripture!

Mormons don’t understand Mormonism and it shows

“Our lives as Christians are lives of holiness. We are called to it. This will come with war against sin and the passions of our flesh. We will struggle with sin. But at the end of the day, believers can say with the Apostle Paul “thanks be to God who always gives us the victory in Christ Jesus” and that “we are more than conquerors through Him who loves us.” New article available on my Substack.

23. Despite the dispensationalists’ conviction that their “plain interpretation” necessarily “gives to every word the same meaning it would have in normal usage” (Charles Ryrie) and is the only proper and defensible method for interpreting Scripture, by adopting this method they are denying the practice of Christ and the Apostles in the New Testament, as when the Lord points to John the Baptist as the fulfillment of the prophecy of Elijah’s return (Matt 10:13-14) and when the Apostles apply the prophecy of the rebuilding of “the tabernacle of David” to the spiritual building of the Church (Acts 15:14-17), and many other such passages. The Ninety-Five Theses Against Dispensationalism By Ken Gentry and Jerry Johnson

Yes “Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?” Romans 6:16 ESV

“Charles Spurgeon once said that “The same sun which melts wax hardens clay. And the same gospel which melts some persons to repentance hardens others in their sins.” Romans 9 gives us an explanation as to why that is the case. The doctrine of Sovereign election can either bring one to their knees, or turn one away.” New article up on Substack. Link in the bio!

The Melchizedek Priest belongs to Christ alone without any successor. Therefore, Mormonism is a lie

One of the devils greatest lies is that you have plenty of time. “whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.” James 4:14 NKJV

Because you believe that God was once a man and became a god through obedience. You believe He had sex with the Virgin Mary and that Jesus and Satan are spirit brothers.

“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 ESV

“There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.” Proverbs 6:16-19 ESV

My parents were told I’d be born with down syndrome and they chose to receive whatever The Father gave them. The doctors were wrong and I’m grateful they chose life as I would’ve never have gotten to experience the grace of God in salvation

How deceived do you have to be to believe that the Roman Catholic Church is the “one true church” after reading Vatican II?
