If one researches the subject of Universalism, it becomes difficult to overlook the fact that its entire argument rests primarily on the interpretation of the following verse: 2 Corinthians 5:19 KJBTo wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Which they have however removed…

Romans 4:7-8 KJBSaying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. [8] Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. ⬇️ Galatians 3:9 KJBSo then they which be of FAITH are BLESSED with faithful Abraham. ⬇️ Ephesians 1:3 KJBBlessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all SPIRITUAL blessings in heavenly places IN…

Do you ignore this verse: 2 Corinthians 5:18 KJBAnd all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; And put the emphasis on this verse instead and apply it to unbelievers? 2 Corinthians 5:20 KJBNow then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye…

Nominal Christianity, which is promoted as being the “real McCoy” and sure way to heaven by Satan’s ministers of righteousness, carries the same aspirations as that of its god, Satan. Every nominal Christian out there aspires to be like Jesus (who is God) by professing that He is the perfect example of what they can and should be if they follow Him according to Matthew, Mark, Luke & John – in…

Ephesians 3:11-12 KJBAccording to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: [12] In whom we have boldness and access with confidence BY the faith of him. —- The faith of the operation of God and what it accomplishes for those who believe Paul’s gospel: ♡ Christ died ➡️ our old man is crucified with Him – Romans 6:6.♡ Christ was buried ➡️ we are buried with Him – Romans…

This is not a testimony – it’s a tale of hope after many years of despair because God  answers the prayers of sinners. As an unsaved religionist, I often asked myself: Why would God give mankind a Book that could not be understood? What would be the point? I came to this conclusion because there were so many  denominations, each teaching different doctrines, yet each one claimed they had the…

Because we aren’t “one verse wonders”, Romans 5 verse 10 should be understood in light of Romans 5 verse 9. Romans 5:10: For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. (King James Bible) “shall be saved by his life” does not mean our salvation is future, as can be noted from 1 Corinthians 15:2 which…

Regardless of one’s circumstances – The blessings God bestows on all men in this present dispensation are as follows, and are received through trusting Christ alone according to 1 Corinthians 15:1-4: *Forgiveness and the non-imputation of sins – Romans 4:6-8. *Chosen in Christ – Ephesians 1:4. *Predestinated unto the adoption of sons – Ephesians 1:5. *Accepted in the beloved – Ephesians…

Many of those Paul first brought to the faith of Christ were proselytes. Because they already knew the God of the Bible and were familiar with the Old Testament scriptures, so they were more readily persuaded when Paul demonstrated from those scriptures that Jesus – the One who died for their sins – is in fact the Son of God. Acts 13:32-33 KJBAnd we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the…

Keeping each sentence in its proper context allows the true meaning of a verse to be understood. For example: “To wit” means “namely” (or “that is to say”). Thus, verse 19 explains the ministry of reconciliation by revealing a truth that is absent from the Hebrew epistles – namely, that through Christ’s redemptive work at Calvary, all men are now in the previously unrevealed position of being…

2 Corinthians 5:17-18 KJBTherefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. [18] And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; The work given to us as Saints is the ministry of reconciliation as can be noted in Romans 1:1 & 2 Corinthians…

Romans 4:8-10 KJBBlessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. [9] Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. [10] How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. What can be garnered from Romans…

Ephesians chapter 1 contains many colons – so these should be kept in mind when studying this chapter.  From verses 1–9, Paul describes the believer’s spiritual blessings in salvation, all of which originate with God and ultimately secure the believer’s position in the heavenly places. And In Verse 11 he speaks of Believers’ inheritance.  Verses 12 and 13 show that all of these spiritual…

Being joint-heirs with Christ can be compared to an analogy of a father’s last will and testament. In it his 5 sons and 2 daughters are his co-heirs, and his eldest, a son, is the executor of the estate, so all his siblings are joint-heirs with him as they all inherit from their father according to his last will and testament.  BUT they do not inherit equally due to various reasons noted in the…

Philippians 3:1-3 KJBFinally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. [2] Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. [3] For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. Dogs The term “dogs” was used by Jews as an…

No man can attain to God’s righteous standards for the following reason: Romans 3:9-12 KJBWhat then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; [10] As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: [11] There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. [12] They are all gone out of the…

One way the proponents of the heresy known as Universal Forgiveness interpret Colossians 2:13–15 is by treating the passage, particularly the relationship between “having forgiven you all trespasses” and “blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us” – as a universal timeline that automatically applies to every person. Yet Scripture teaches that the law (the handwriting of…
