***Update***🚨 I have been dealing with family and other priorities over the last few months. But I do plan on uploading a revamped Gospel Unveiled series. Look for those to start in February! God Bless!

Romans 4:1-5 - What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found? For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath [whereof] to glory; but not before God. For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

How many times does the phrase "faith alone" appear in the Bible? And what specifically does the Bible say about "faith alone"?

Clean up life first? Nullifies grace (Rom 11:6, Eph 2:1-9). Dead in sin, alive by grace thru faith. Jesus for the ungodly who believe. No self-reform needed first.

Paul: not sent to baptize but preach Gospel (1 Cor 1:17). Requiring water baptism for salvation? That’s adding works. Believe only.

“Repent and believe:” if repent means turn from sins to earn, it’s works. Bible: believe Jesus gets eternal life (free). Adding turns grace to debt.

Not justified by works but faith in Christ (Gal 2:16). If law or “clean up” saves, Christ died for nothing. Grace + anything = no grace. Believe only.

Saved by grace thru faith, NOT of works (Eph 2:8-9). Baptism, sin avoidance first, life commitment? That’s works & boasting. Believe Jesus, get the free gift.

Abraham justified by faith alone before works (Rom 4). Believe, not work, that’s credited as righteousness. Adding repentance or baptism? That’s works. Simple: believe Jesus for eternal life.

If adding “turn from sin” or good deeds is needed, grace is gone. “If by grace, then it is no longer by works” (Rom 11:6). Eph 2:8-9: not of works. True Gospel: believe in Jesus for free eternal life. Anything else nullifies grace.

@ComeHometoRome What is the Protestant worldview?

There is zero logic in the Protestant worldview

@oliverburdick What about a lying Christian? An angry christian? A drunkard Christian? A gossiping Christian? A judgmental Christian? You are not upset with sin, you are upset with those who sin differently than you.

There is no such thing as a gay Christian. God and sexual sin do not belong together.

Are you confused about the current dispensational talk? Watch This! Very important! #Dispensationalism #Israel #BiblicalTruth youtu.be/guJVlp83pg8?si…

I am currently writing my commentary on the book of 1 John. In doing so I was able to generate the following video. I would appreciate any comments and please share if you like this content.

Spiritual growth isn’t mystical. It’s simple: fill your mind with God’s Word until it reshapes how you think. Colossians 3:16 – Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly. Romans 12:2 – Be transformed by the renewing of your mind. No secret formulas. Just Scripture + faith. Start today. #GrowInGrace #BiblicalDiscipleship

The Rapture isn’t a theory. It’s imminent. Nothing has to happen first. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 – We will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air. No signs. No waiting for tribulation. Just “Come, Lord Jesus.” Are you living ready? #Rapture #Imminence

Grace isn’t just how you’re saved. It’s how you live every single day. Romans 6:14 – “You are not under law but under grace.” Titus 2:11-12 – Grace teaches us to say no to ungodliness. No checklists. Just rest in what Christ already did. That’s freedom. #UnderGrace

You are not “becoming” a saint. You ARE a saint the moment you believe in Christ. Ephesians 1:1 – “To the saints who are at Ephesus and faithful in Christ Jesus.” Same word used for God Himself. Holy. Set apart. Your identity isn’t earned. It’s declared. Live like who God says you are. #IdentityInChrist

“What’s my purpose?” The world says figure it out. Scripture says it’s already set: Isaiah 43:7 – “Everyone who is called by My name… I have created for My glory.” 1 Corinthians 10:31 – Do all to the glory of God. One ultimate purpose. Everything else flows from it. You were made for Him. #Purpose #BiblicalLiving

@counseloftrent Quoting 2 Hesitations again

To be saved, we must be obedient to Christ. And Christ commands us to receive him in the Eucharist.

Science without the Creator is like studying a painting while denying the Artist. Psalm 19:1 – “The heavens declare the glory of God.” Romans 1:20 – His attributes are clearly seen in what He made. The order, the fine-tuning, the wonder? All screaming one name. What story does your science tell? #BiblicalWorldview #Creation

How do we know what we know? Human viewpoint limits knowledge because we are limited. The only way to know everything we need is to know someone outside of this world to tell us. That is why the Biblical framework is vital to knowledge. Proverbs 1:1-7; 3:5-6
