What happens when the traditions of the church are in conflict with the teachings of the Bible?
Welcome to my blog. Here I share my thoughts on what matters to me.
What happens when the traditions of the church are in conflict with the teachings of the Bible?
“Through influences seen and unseen, our Savior is constantly at work to attract the minds of men from the unsatisfying pleasures of sin to the infinite blessings that may be theirs in Him.” - Steps to Christ
The “remnant,” then, is a qualifier describing the historical-spiritual reality of God’s Church throughout the history of redemption. - Dr. Canale
“We can no more repent without the Spirit of Christ to awaken the conscience than be pardoned without Christ.”
- Steps to Christ p26
God uses socially powerless individuals possessing profound faith in Him to overturn and transforms the social order.
- Robert D. Bergen
There is no hope for anyone to come to God by their own power. All of us need a Savior, we all need Jesus.
Jesus trusted God and refused to use His divinity to get out of difficult situations. Are we willing to follow His example and trust the Father like Jesus did?
Jesus reveals what the Father is like. We don’t have to be afraid of God, He loves us.
God’s people are called to be faithful. The great battle at the end of time will be similar to what it has always been, all about who you worship.
