Many born again Christians believe they have two natures within them, a new Christ-like nature and an old sinful nature, which war against each other. They believe that their new nature loves God and wants to practice righteousness, but that their old nature loves sin and wants to practice lawlessness. They think that their Christian life reflects whichever of these two conflicting natures they yield themselves to the most. However, this "tale of...

Most Christians do not know how to stop practicing sin. They find themselves continually overcome by sins such as fear, pride, envy, greed, bitterness, anger, lust, or addictions. As a result, they live lives of secret desperation, shame, frustration and defeat, always afraid of sin's destructive power over them. This is truly tragic since Jesus Christ died on the cross to set us free from sin's domination, and enable us to stop practicing sin. It...

Many Christians believe God is infinitely happy and that He also, wants us to be happy. They believe the idea of sorrow and suffering is negative thinking that should be, avoided at all costs. However, this is a false gospel. It ignores the whole counsel of God as revealed by His Word. Many Christians mistakenly believe the pursuit of happiness is God's purpose for their lives and is their God-given right and entitlement. However, this directly contradicts...

One factor contributing to Christians' misunderstanding on how God has dealt with their old sinful nature is the translation of the Greek word sarx, which appears 147 times in the New Testament. Most versions of Bible have translated sarx as "flesh." However, the word "flesh" is not only archaic, it is ambiguous and confusing. Consequently, when Christians read the New Testament today and they come across the word "flesh" in the Scriptures, they are...

Most Christians today accept without any question the idea that pastors should receive an annual salary from their local church. However, they may be surprised to learn that there is no Scriptural or historical evidence that the elders, who pastored the local churches in the first century, were given a full-time salary to meet all their financial needs and family obligations. The elders were not full-time Christian workers, they were simply elder...

Very few Christians understand the relationship between faith and works, and particularly which works are acceptable to God and which are not acceptable. When it comes to our works, the Bible distinguishes between "dead works" and "good works." Many Christians are doing dead works that are unacceptable to God. The Bible says we must stop doing dead works and enter into God's work if we want to know God and obey Him. This Ebook explains the difference...

This short eBook surveys church history and reveals the purity and power of the church is directly related to the purity and power of the gospel that is preached and practiced. A prime example of this connection is the Protestant Reformation, which only restored half of the gospel. In practice, the Reformation restored the gospel of how "the righteous are saved by faith," but never restored the whole gospel of how "the righteous will live by faith."...

What does it mean to hear and obey Jesus' voice? It does not mean following some mystical feeling, because feelings (even "good" religious feelings) are prone to deception. Tragically, very few professing Christians know how to hear Jesus' voice. Yet, Jesus said all those sheep, who truly belong to Him will, hear His voice when He speaks to them, not just on the day they are, saved, but every day afterward as they continue to follow Him. It is impossible...

Most Christians today accept without question the idea that every church should have a pastor who is the "head" of their church. However, they would be surprised to learn that there is no Scriptural or historical evidence to support our modern-day church system of a sole pastor or senior pastor who is the head of the church. In the New Testament, the term "elder" is always used interchangeably with the terms "pastor" and "overseer." All three of these...

Many contemporary churches today have two or three Sunday morning services, with each service allowed a one-hour program. Everyone who attends the service knows the program: first the band plays "worship" music; next there are church announcements; then the tithes and offerings are collected while the band plays some more; then the pastor gives his sermon (the same one to all three services); finally, a closing prayer is given, followed by the band...

What does it mean for a Christian to submit? The Bible says to "submit to God" (James 4:7), "submit to one another" (Ephesians 5:21), "wives submit to your husbands" (Colossians 3:18), "younger men submit to your elders" (1 Peter 5:5), "servants submit to your masters" (1 Peter 2:18), and "everyone submit to the governing authorities" (Romans 13:1). Although these are all different situations, the same Greek word hypotasso is used in each case. Therefore,...
