The short answer is, merely considering the predicament of the thief on the cross, NO (Luk 23:43). God can save us without us having to be submerged in water, or sprinkled, or any outward physical form of cleansing. Since so few of us even believe that we are on the cross with Christ... [read more]

Hi Mike,
I have been re- reading the gospels and wondering if you can explain why Jesus went only to the Jews. Also wondering what he meant in Matthew when it says he came to save His people? Mat 1:21. Also, since Jesus hadn't been crucified yet, I assume the gospels up until his crucifixion are sh... [read more]

Hi Mike
I have your article on the "law." It is very wonderful. I just have some questions about it.
Didn't Jesus come in our place so that we wouldn't have to bear the curse of the law?
I understand that he came to fulfill what the law and the prophets testified to "types and shadows, fulfillment ... [read more]

How do we know if we are offering our bodies enough as a living sacrifice to be in the first resurrection? Is there a measuring stick as to whether we are putting to death the deeds of the flesh enough? It sounds like you are saying Paul was concerned that he could lose his first- fruits salvation....

Thanks,

Hi Mike!
I have another issue I am trying to figure out. Here is the verse in question:
Joh 17:2 As thou [ the Father] hast given him [ the Son] power over all flesh, that he [ the Son] should give eternal life to as many as thou[ the Father] hast given him[ the Son]."
So, Jesus is going to give "E... [read more]

Hi Mike,
When the bible speaks of everyone in his own order - BUT EVERY MAN IN HIS OWN ORDER: a firstfruit Anointed; afterwards they that are Christ's at His appearing, then... the End. It seems this Isa 3 separate events. 1. Christ the first, 2. Those that are in Christ, 3. The End. Where is the "... [read more]
