    Okay, I am writing this knowing that I probably don’t have this whole idea completely understood (obviously)! I definitely haven’t perfected it and would love some dialog as to whether or not you think this is right, mainly because I don’t wanting to be teaching truth if it is not complete truth, that’s scary (James 3:1).

    ”And to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness”

    “…reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with all patience and teaching…” 2 Timothy 4:2 What Christian who speaks forth the word of God boldly has not been accused of being judgmental?  There is a vast difference between judgment and reproof, between judging someone’s heart and intentions and correcting them out of love for their souls.    Correction is not often perceived [...]

    Here we read about the call of Abraham and the beginning of the Abrahamic covenant (that is more officially made in Genesis 17).  As followers of Christ, we are also part of this covenant.  We are children of Abraham.  We are told this many times in the New Testament.  Romans 4:16 is one of the [...]
