Saved Eternally and Assuredly from God’s Wrath

November 8, 2022December 5, 2012 by Jun P. Espina

God said that we are old outwardly only, or that outwardly we are wasting away, getting older, weaker. Inwardly, however, we are renewed day by day. Wrote the Apostle Paul in 2 Corinthians 4:16: “Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day.” We are saved eternally because of our faith in Jesus Christ, God the Son. It is our Christian hope that is pointed out daily in our walk with God through the inner witness of Christ’s Spirit inside of us. Saved eternally, also known as the eternal security of believers, is a Bible teaching that is sown in our hearts since God “also sealed us and gave us the Spirit in our hearts as a pledge” or guarantee that we are His (saved from sin and the wrath of God!) forever.

Jesus Christ said that He is the Giver of life, for He is the Life. That is the meaning of Christian life. Jesus our Lord is the Life, He is our Life. Observe John 10:27-28: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they shall never perish; and no one shall snatch them out of My hand.” We are complete in Christ in this life and beyond. (cf. John 15:5) A Christian life is a life of hope and victory; a life of divine peace and joy. The Bible contains true life stories of a prostitute who got changed or of a resurrected dead man.

Real Love of God Can be Experienced

Where are you?” (Gen. 3:9) It is one verse of Scripture where God demonstrated the existence and authenticity of His real love to Adam and Eve in particular, and to all of the human race in general. God’s love is just so true as the stars in the skies or the fish in the ocean.

Kindness Misunderstood

Is it true that your kindness to others will always be rewarded? I don’t think so. We define kindness as the tendency to be forgiving or the “quality of being warmhearted and considerate and humane and sympathetic.”

A compassion that’s expecting a reward or a reciprocal attitude from whom we tender kindness is deceptive and manipulative. Kindness is being nice to others with no ulterior motives. “It’s nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice,” someone once said.

Hyper-Calvinism Rejected by Biblical Christians Seeing the Dangers When Theology Twists the Scriptures

What is hyper-Calvinism? What are the five points of Calvinism? I WANT TO CLARIFY that I don’t have any intention of trying to add more confusion to the hundreds of years of the Calvinism-Arminianism debate. Tozer once said that there were so many people more intelligent than we are who took part in the centuries-old Calvin-Arminius doctrinal war. All of them ended up siding with either Calvinism or Arminianism.

Real God Whom Paul Met at Damascus

March 13, 2020November 25, 2012 by Jun P. Espina

The deity of Christ is the heart of the Christian religion. The apostle Paul clearly taught that his “great God and Savior” is Jesus Christ. Our Lord is real God Incarnate. But the haters of the Christian faith see this teaching as unacceptable as the Bible itself. How did Paul arrive at his doctrine that Christ is our great God and Savior?
