Did Jesus Christ save you, or did you save yourself? Most Christians will claim to believe that Jesus saved them, but when you look at the facts it becomes apparent that they actually believe God only helps those who help themselves, and that they believe they are, in fact, their own (at least partial) saviours,… Continue reading Save yourself!

Why only Universalists can be saved
As I mentioned in my last article, few Christians understand what it is that the Gospel which Paul taught means, and because of that, it seems safe to say that very few Christians have been saved yet. (I’m referring to salvation from a relative perspective, I should say, meaning the salvation that brings one into… Continue reading Why only Universalists can be saved
The actual choice when it comes to believing the Gospel
When you bring up the fact that Scripture teaches the eventual salvation of all humanity, many Christians will attempt to object by saying that it can’t be true because it would violate our so-called “free will.” The thing is, whether or not “free will” exists, it just doesn’t matter when it comes to salvation, because… Continue reading The actual choice when it comes to believing the Gospel
How we can know with certainty that there is more than one Gospel
I’ve written about the differences between the various Gospels mentioned in Scripture many times on this website, and given various arguments as to why there is more than one recorded in Scripture, but there’s one proof which settles the debate beyond any shadow of a doubt, and that is the different meanings and end results… Continue reading How we can know with certainty that there is more than one Gospel
They’re the same picture
After finishing my post on the many differences between the Israel of God (and their Gospel of the Circumcision) and the body of Christ (and our Gospel of the Uncircumcision) — which you can find here — and being told by someone who read it that they still can’t see the clear pattern of differences… Continue reading They’re the same picture
Things that differ
Nearly every Christian has been taught, and hence nearly every Christian believes, that there is only one Gospel, as well as that Paul taught exactly the same things Jesus and His disciples taught while He walked the earth. In fact, this is such a commonly accepted presupposition among Christians that many are surprised when they… Continue reading Things that differ
“…all men, especially…”
There are lots of other passages I can use as well, and I have in other places on this website, but I can show you, using two simple verses of Scripture, that God will save all humanity. First, Galatians 6:10, where Paul wrote, “As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men,… Continue reading “…all men, especially…”
Good News
The Good News (or Gospel) which Paul taught is that Christ died for our sins, that He was buried (He was buried — not just His body, while He went elsewhere — which means He actually died, ceasing to exist as a conscious being), and that He rose again the third day (meaning He was resurrected… Continue reading Good News
An actually biblical TULIP
Believe it or not, I find that there is a little bit in Calvinism to agree with, particularly the fact that they believe everyone whose sins Christ died for will be saved. There are some points where we disagree, however, because Calvinists don’t understand that Christ died for everyone’s sins, so I thought I’d give… Continue reading An actually biblical TULIP
