On LAW and GRACE: Clearing the confusion and getting it right…
·         God designed LAW to RESTRAIN DISORDER but NOT to save from sin.
·         God designed GRACE to SAVE FROM SIN but NOT to permit disorder.

Ancient Jews mistook restraint of disorder to mean salvation from sin.
Modern Church mistakes salvation from sin to mean permission of disorder.

The LAW of Moses is God’s means for bringing RESTRAINED ORDER because it:
·         Commands by moral precepts.
·         Condemns by civil judgments.
·         Cleanses by ritual ceremonies.

The GRACE of Christ is God’s means for bringing REGENERATED LIFE because it:
·         Enlightens us by the Truth.
·         Purifies us by the Blood.
·         Empowers us by the Spirit.

The orderly life HAS NO POWER to live the regenerated life.
The regenerate life HAS THE POWER to live the orderly life.

PROBLEM OF CHURCH DENOMINATIONS

Denominations are partial witnesses often not without ulterior motives falsely presenting themselves as full true witnesses for Christ. Denominations are half-truths presuming to be the whole truth; they are often strange magnification of preferred or modified truth (or even outright falsehood) used to oppose and override another biblical truth. Christ and His Apostles prayed (John 17:10, 11, 20-24) and warned (Acts 20:26-34; 1John 2:19; Jude 1:19) against the Church splitting into denominations.

In fact, Church denominations arose from agreements and disagreements about differences in forms of Church government and traditional basis for doctrine and practice as well as organisational allegiance . Three main forms of Church governments or administrations adopted by Church denominations and somewhat or partially de...

THE PRAYER OF THE SAINTS: A Great Mystery.

THE PRAYER OF THE SAINTS: A Great Mystery. It is fascinating mystery to realise that when we (i.e. the Saints) pray we cooperate with God and the Angels in heaven to bring about God's special intervention on earth. One becomes a Saint when one is sanctified by faith in Jesus and through the propitiatory power in the blood of Jesus, Who is THE CHRIST of God and THE SAVIOUR of all. The Prayers of the Saints kindle fire on the heavenly golden censers and golden altar of incense!!! Revelation 5:8 (8) And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of saints. Revelation 8:3-4 (3) And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. (4) And the smoke of the ince...
