I still can’t find any free grace channel that deals with Galatians 5:20-21 or Matthew 5:29-30! I know the Lordship advocates love these verses, but why doesn’t anyone else want to go near them? Some scholarship on these verses would be much appreciated! Thank you.
Hey Kris! We have somewhat covered Galatians 5:20-21 in our Galatians series, and I believe it is discussed in one of our earlier videos about “can I lose salvation,” or somewhere like that. Those verses are only stating that the FLESH does not inherit the kingdom of God, but you see in verses 22-23, the SPIRIT does. Your flesh doesn’t go to heaven, but your spirit will (if you have believed in Christ!). We have not covered Matthew 5:29-30 in detail, but it also should be considered in simplicity. We can do a video on this in the future. We could get a community post out too! We aren’t afraid of any passage, but we just do a QnA video once a week haha! Send the question to the email, and we’ll get you a written response on the website too!! - Trent
@@BibleLine Hey, that’s great Trent! So glad to hear that. I’ll check this video out. Sounds like Yankee’s take on it which makes sense! I’m also encouraged to see you’re considering Mt 5: 29-30. Very impressed with your fast response and love for the church! God bless you guys richly!
Go on to read 24 and 25. It says how our flesh was crucified with Jesus and were in the spirit so let's walk in the spirit. Which piggy backs of Trent. I chime in because this verse scared me too
Hey Brother could You please Help clarify Hebrews 10:26 as this verse seems to be taken out of context allot but to simply read it seems scary 😟 Thanks Brother
Hey Gary! There is no need to fear this verse. It is very much taken out of context. The point of the chapter is really to show how Jesus died ONCE, so our sin is paid in full. He doesn’t have to die again. Like in Hebrews 6 they’re putting Christ to an open shame as though he has to die again for sin. The problem with the Hebrews was that they were SAVED, but they were putting themselves back under the law and sacrifices as though Jesus was not enough. Hence 10:26 “there remaineth no more sacrifice for sin.” - this is because Jesus made the full payment for sin. It’s actually a neat promise that EVEN IF we sin willfully, our sin is still paid in full. We need no other sacrifice. The “certain fearful looking for of judgment” is not hellfire condemnation because we have been saved from the wrath of God and condemnation (John 3:36, 5:24). God may very well chasten us (Heb 12:6), or we could miss out on rewards as mentioned in 1 Corinthians 3:10-16. This is not a verse indicating that you can lose salvation if you sin willfully. It really does not fit the context, nor does it say that.

I have a question pastor. What are your thoughts when someone says that Christian’s don’t have to keep the ceremonial, ritualistic laws, but Christian’s still have to keep the royal law
There were many laws specifically instituted to Israel, Priests, Rulers and so on. Many of the laws served a specific purpose. A big thing that few like to point out is the fact that God still took issue with sin before the law. Murder was still wrong before the law came. An example of certain “ceremonial law” that we wouldn’t keep today is that of pork and certain foods. This is shown in 1 Corinthians. The law’s main purpose was to point us to Christ, to show us that we fail to attain to God’s righteousness. This is why Jesus is the fulfillment of the law! Hope this helps some. We may make an in depth video on this topic. - Trent
6:04 why we should live soberly righteously 6:07 and godly in this present world is ( Can you give me an expination of How does one show they are living soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world, since you mentioned this? ) 6:09 because that's what Grace teaches us 6:11 so yes works are involved but not in the 6:14 Salvation process this is how we're able 6:17 to reach more people this is how we're ( Can you give me the scripture where you can confirm that Grace teaches us that we should show soberly, righteously, and godly? ) 6:19 able to obey God and he will reward us 6:22 as we obey and discipline us as we 6:25 disobey ( Can you show me where in scripture does it say he will reward us and discipline us if we don't? ) I am just a bit confused with your teaching sir? Ephesians 2:10 King James Version 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. ( This is not one of them sir, for it is God's work not ours, lets look at scripture shall we!; WE ARE Who? HIS WORKMANSHIP not our workmanship created in WHO?

( Reading the context this has nothing to do with the salvation of our souls, but with working out our own solutions with each other read the context; and now why would Paul say with fear and trembling? well, this is why let's look at the next verse, shall we? ) 13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. ( For it is WHO?? God doing the work not us? ) get the context friend! no work whatsoever!
Titus 2:11 clearly shows us that we should “live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world.” We agree that this is not for salvation, but it is to be done to reach more people and be rewarded when we stand before God. 1 Corinthians 3:10-16 shows us that we will be rewarded for what we do. See also 2 Corinthians 5 and James 2:13. James also makes it clear that works are profitable to others. Works don’t save us, but they are necessary to reach others. If I don’t study the scripture, pray or ever share the gospel, then I am ineffective for the sake of Jesus Christ and the gospel. God does work in us through the Spirit, but we have to put forth effort and show good works to reach others. None of this is automatic. See also Titus 3:8. - Trent
@@brohuggie2978 Trent did use scripture. And the quickest way to see where we are not seeing eye-to-eye is do you believe works play a role in salvation in any way or that you need it to prove you are a Christian?
@@FlyDog79 We all know from scripture works are not involved in salvation... If works need to prove you are saved, then obviously you are not saved... correct?
You need to stop saying things such as "Everybody knows" such and such... Simply not true. Why else would someone be on your channel unless some were trying to learn that which they don't know, or don't understand?
It’s a common saying that usually has common understanding. I’m unsure why this is upsetting to you. We realize not all actually know the subject matter, but the point of the saying is understood… - Trent

Praying for others. Serving in prayer team at church or online ministry 🙂
works are not necessarily obedience, are they?

6:04
why we should live soberly righteously
6:07
and godly in this present world is
( Can you give me an expination of How does one show they are living soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world, since you mentioned this? )

because that's what Grace teaches us
