"Planet earth is coming at us, but Christ Jesus is working in us... let's not confuse those two."
No Strings Attached by Andrew Farley, Take 2
In the process of finishing my article on the Freedom we have in Christ, or rather how Christ Himself is our actual freedom, I've seen the need to listen to some of the resources I've exposed myself to prior continuing what I've started. I tried finishing the said article once in the past, but I... Continue Reading →
No Strings Attached by Andrew Farley
We've seen a lot of deals and promotions that sound so good at first.. Free 30 Day Trials, You've Won A Raffle, etc. We seem to be used to this sort of thing to the point that we are immediately wary of any 'strings' attached to any sweet deal. We keep asking, 'What's the catch?';... Continue Reading →

Jude 1:1-2 Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, To those who are the called, beloved in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ: May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you. 2 Peter and Jude have their similarities in the sense that these Apostles talk about errors and...

Notes from Truly Knowing Him: a series in 2 Peter (pts 2-4) by Andrew Farley
There are opponents to the Gospel, and in 2 Peter, the apostle aims to address them, to shoot them down. Even back then there have been 'posers', adding their own manuscripts and words to the Gospel, for their own motives and for their own intentions.

What is your response to Martin Luther: 'We are more wicked than we will ever know, but more loved than we ever dare dream.' Does God love sin? Does God love wickedness? In salvation we are changed from wickedness to the righteousness of God in Christ; He put wickedness on the cross and it... Continue Reading →
Suffering, the Spirit, and Other Concerns – Part 2 by Andrew Farley
'What are we to do with our sins that do so easily beset us?' We have to get to the point where we say that God is right. And God is right about the fact that we are forgiven people. God is right to have forgiven us and we have to agree with Him. 'I... Continue Reading →
Suffering, the Spirit and other concerns! by Andrew Farley
The enemy has a voice, but he cannot touch you. He can accuse you and therefore keep you focused on your faults. He can tempt us - there is a war, but it's not a war where we actively and constantly cast out demons.. The enemy flings fiery darts, so the attacks come from outside.... Continue Reading →
Buzzwords! by Andrew Farley
'We are both saint and sinner.' - It all sounds good, but it sounds good before salvation. It doesn't respect the finished work of Jesus Christ, simply because while we may still sin, we are no longer sinners. The Bible teaches that we were born sinners - in other words, we aren't sinners because we... Continue Reading →
