Was Christ Actually Raised From The Dead? Was Christ Actually Raised From The Dead? The early preachers of the gospel gave great prominence to the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul may well have summed up the matter when he said in Philippians 3:10 that he sought to "know him and the power of his resurrection". They recognized the power of his resurrection. In Romans 1:4 Paul said that Christ was "declared to be the Son of God with power..... by the resurrection from the dead". The resurrection from the dead was a conclusive demonstration that Jesus Christ was the Son of the living God. Not only was it that but they regarded the resurrection as conclusive proof that the atoning blood of Jesus Christ had the necessary power to save lost men from their sins. They regarded the resurrection of Jesus Christ as conclusive proof that, in the end, all will be raised from the dead. Paul said, "And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain".

Development of Trinity Doctrine from the Old to the New Testament If the Watchtower organization tells Jehovah's Witnesses that since Trinity was not fully developed in the Old Testament, it proves Trinity false, they blindly accept it as true. All the while, if they ever stopped to think, they would realize this is a satanic deception, illogical and utter hypocrisy!

The Crucifixion Of Jesus The shadow of the cross that was raised on Golgotha reaches across the centuries to offer comfort, forgiveness, and hope to us today. The story is almost unbelievable, for it is hard for us to image such love. "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son" is the message of the golden text of the Bible, John Chapter 3, verse 16.

Adultery and the Bible Technically there are differences in the original Biblical language as there is in the English between adultery and fornication, but as used in this brief study, adultery is illicit sexual intercourse between married or unmarried persons. God has graciously provided -for the sexual desires of men and women to be satisfied only in marriage and to engage in pre-marital, or extra-marital sex, before or outside of marriage is to sin in God's sight. It should be made clear, however, that the sin of adultery, as serious in God's sight, and as hateful as it -is to those who commit it, it is forgivable! The story of Jesus and the woman who was taken in adultery (John 8) shows that adultery may be forgiven when God's conditions of pardon are met. When sexual immorality of all kinds surrounds us on every side, may all of us desire to be, and strive to be, pure in heart and life. Like Joseph, when tempted by Potiphar's wife, can say "How then can I do this great wickedness and sin against God?" ... ... https://www.bible.ca/s-adultery.htm

What role does the Holy Spirit in my Conversion? This idea has descended to our age from the old doctrine that man is totally depraved in heart and soul and must have a miraculous spiritual operation to turn him from sin to his Heavenly Father. But the scriptures plainly teach that the Holy Spirit works through the agency of the revealed Word of God! Still, while proclaiming that the manner of the Spirit's working in the Christian age is through the power of the Word, we must not be guilty of thinking the Spirit is not involved in our conversion. Conversion is the process by which man turns from sin to God. It is the "change" from the old life in sin to the new life in Christ. Conversion takes place in our mind, while forgiveness takes place in the mind of God. In the process of conversion, there are no new faculties or powers imparted that are felt in any physical way. Any theory which takes away the Word of God in conversion, or takes away man's responsibility or accountability, cannot be true.

Did you choose your church this way??? He will find that Peter, on Pentecost, preached a sermon about Christ at the end of which the people believed that Jesus was the divine son of God. They asked, "Men and brethren, what shall we do?" Then Peter said unto them, "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit" Acts 2:37,38.

The sabbath law was 100% ceremonial and not moral law The Sabbath is not a moral law because the priests were allowed to profane it: Matt 12:5; Num 28:9-10; Josh 6:15; 1 Ki 20:29; Jn 5:10 The Sabbath is not a moral law because a man could break it without sin to save an animal from a pit.

How can I be born again? John 3:3-5 + Mark 16:16 + Acts 2:38 (click on photo for high resolution) The New Birth is a cardinal doctrine of the Bible. Long before Jesus walked on earth God's prophets pointed to it (I Peter 1:10-12). It was the theme of Christ's preaching. He said to Nicodemus, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God" (John 3:3). That should settle the importance of the subject. What, then is involved in the new birth? First, there is a cleansing from sin. Paul wrote, "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost" (Titus 3:5). The word "regeneration" means "new birth" (Vine, P.267). This cleansing occurs when a penitent believer is immersed in water, as may be seen in Paul's own conversion. The instruction he received was, "arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins . . ." (Acts 22:16). A clear example of the new birth is seen in ... ... https://www.bible.ca/g-how-born-again.htm
