Still relevant today ...and shall Always be till He comes again !
So vital to understand the clarification of the Only message of Life that Zane so eloquently elucidated .
Then why isn't Zane in Scripture?
We put my son in a private Christian school due to crazy public schools. Problem is he has to defend the gospel way more at the private school. Praise the Lord He showed me the truth of Gospel in 2016 and I have raised my son with correct doctrine in many areas. Sadly, that sets him in opposition to the bible teachers and just about every single student. School is in the Twin Cities and this is like the mecca of reformed theology. Even the non-denominational churches keep a toe in the traditional teachings of mainline denominational teachings. Now, our church is not great teaching, but I was able to correct the pastor and he never has shared the gospel the same again, now it's all about grace through faith in Jesus--period. We're a small church though. Majority of the students, parents, and perhaps the staff (although principal and dean seemed to have decent doctrine) believe in repenting of sin to be saved and that you can lose your salvation. So it's a good school in one sense, but in the other my son hates it because he's always finding himself arguing with friends and teachers. I guess the one good thing is they have nothing to stand on and he has memorized scripture. When he shows them verses in the bible then they shut their mouths, and one or two he's been able to actually get them to see the truth and change their mind. Anyway, Gospel has been under siege for a long time. What I can't figure out is how both repent of sin to be saved and losing your salvation, isn't heretical? But God still saves despite the error and anti-gospel teaching... I mean, I know I was saved early in life despite my thinking this. God's grace extends through it, as long as there is a sliver of faith in Him I guess? But since 2016, I finally started to see fruit in my life. Not that life is easier, but I no longer struggle in many ways and no longer look inside myself for answers. Instead, I now see Jesus and His grace throughout every story, color, material, number, everything in all of scripture I now see Jesus and His plan for mankind.
I was enjoying Nolan Allen’s eschatology but then he stated he was lordship salvation 😮
Warren Wilkie like so many didnt understand the context of Ephesians 2:8-9. Simply reading the next verse which makes it clear works before repentance resulting from faith will not justify, but after grace God has works for us.
10For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
Titus 2:11-14
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; 13Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 14Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
There are good reasons John's gospel is last.
The promises in John's gospel are for true repentant believers that continue in the faith, meaning living for and continuing to believe in Christ.
You can't take the promises for those who continue in Christ and say those promises are the message of salvation.
1 Cor 15:1 " I preached to you the gospel......that Jesus was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures". Yet the thief on the cross did not believe in the gospel, the DBR of Christ, and he was saved. So, according to GES, we don't have to believe in the gospel because the thief didn't. For GES says you do not have to be baptized because the thief supposedly wasn't, right? so that means since the thief didn't believe in the gospel and was saved, we don't have to either.....right?
I never went to any bible schools like you have. I did not join church's made with men's hands. I heard the gospel of Grace through faith not of works when I was 7 years old. I do not believe my works of any kind can get me saved , keep me saved, or make me more saved. I do believe in Paul's gospel to not just the Jews, but everyone. I agree that if I must boast, I will boast in the cross of Jesus Christ. Does that make sense?
What Must I Do to be Saved? - Bob Wilkin
czcams.com/video/-0tW4qkMSYU/video.html
Have you ever wondered what you must do to be saved or have everlasting life? Throughout time and in the Bible, people have asked this important question. Bob Wilkin of the Grace Evangelical Society shares what the Bible has to say about this question, and what you should do if you want to know the answer.
@@GESvids Why do you think God created us in a way that only a very few will enter the gate to eternal life. Some people say human free will is more powerful than almighty God. Yet it is God who made free will. God made heaven and Hell before the foundation of the world. If God created us with a free will more powerful than Himself, what else does God NOT know about his creation? If God made Hell to be full of His own creation, why do you think He made us that way?
Zero (0) Point Calvinist ("TULIP") - Bob Wilkin
czcams.com/video/ImkKrI9M8Dw/video.html
There are 5 Points of Calvinism ("TULIP"):
1. Total Depravity;
2. Unconditional Election;
3. Limited Atonement;
4. Irresistible Grace; and
5. Perseverance of the Saints.
Bob Wilkin of the Grace Evangelical Society explains what are 5 points of Calvinism, why he is a Biblicist instead of a Calvinist, and why he holds to none of the 5 points of Calvinism, so he is a aero (0) point Calvinist.
@@GESvids Are either of these denominations in the bible?
In Certain Denominations Where Works Salvation is taught, There is Also the Claim That One Can Lose and Regain Eternal Salvation. If Eternal Salvation was Never Rightly Understood in the First Place, Are These People Even Saved in the First Place? - Bob Wilkin & Ken Yates
czcams.com/video/rTtLXLjEXsA/video.html
Ken Yates and Bob Wilkin answer a question about what is essential to being born again. If a denomination or tradition is not clear on getting or keeping eternal salvation, should we then assume that those who are a part of that denomination are not saved?
Where. Is the word gospel used to describe the message of grace? Gospel is good news. Those dead in sin can hear much less understand . Good news is the message to the saved. .
Does the Word, “Gospel” in Galatians 1:6 Refer to the Saving Message For Receiving Eternal Life? - Bob Wilkin & Ken Yates
czcams.com/video/vpIWnlBKP3U/video.html
Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are addressing a question about the phrase “Fallen from Grace,” and the word “Gospel,” in Galatians? Does this term always refer to the good news of eternal salvation or are there many other types of “good news” as well? What did Paul mean when he talked about the possibility of falling form grace?
