Hello there, thank you for joining me this week. Can you journey with me as we expound this thoughts today? Yes, you are here already. Let's roll.  What do you see after a fire(wood) has burned out? Ashes! Has it cross your mind that the fire that is so bright now will in few minutes turn to ashes? Have you wondered how the glowing light that burns when touched became so cold when turned to ashes?  Scriptures says that  First this: God created the Heavens and Earth­—all you see, all you don't see. Earth was a soup of nothingness, a bottomless emptiness, an inky blackness. God's Spirit brooded like a bird above the watery abyss. God spoke: "Light!" And light appeared. Gen 1:1-3 Did you see the illustration/parable about the creation of the world? Look at what was used to describe to state of the world then... a soup of nothingness, bottomless emptiness, inky blackness, oh, these are a grave state!  But look at what happened after light came, all those states of emp...

.... From last week, Eternal life is the promise of spending forever in heaven with God. God promises, “Believe and you will have eternal life.” For a Christian to lose salvation, eternal life would have to be redefined. The Christian is promised to live forever. Does eternal not mean “eternal”? A Christian is marked by God and sealed by the Spirit. “You also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory”  (Ephesians 1:13–14) At the moment of faith, the new Christian is marked and sealed with the Spirit, who was promised to act as a deposit to guarantee the heavenly inheritance. The end result is that God’s glory is praised. For a Christian to lose salvation, God would have to erase the mark, withdraw the Spirit, cancel the deposit,...

Hello there. This week, I will love to answer some frequently asked questions about salvation, It is important that a believer know what he/She believes in exactly and can "defend" by explaining it someone else.  Apostle Peter said in 2 Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen Apostle Peter took his time to still remind/tell the saints to grow in grace, i.e. The knowledge of our Lord as saviour! You can't afford not to grow, a Christian spiritual growth is by growing in grace. Grace does not focus on man but on what God-as-seen-in-Christ has done. And again, it is the knowledge of God as the saviour,  not as the angry one, nor the one that condemns.  Therefore, God himself is perfectly explained in Christ. As you see Christ, that's how God is!  Disclaimer: All answers are what my Mentor & Pastor (Rev'd Kcwilliams GraceMan) gave either in a service or in a random discuss...
