The confusion within the religious community regarding the soul revolves around the identities of man’s soul and his spirit.  Man does not HAVE a soul; man IS a soul.  Man dies because of sin.  The soul dies because of sin.  That man and soul are one in the same is made clear in Ezekiel 18:4,20 […]

An old hymn which I sung many times in my youth tells about going to heaven “where the soul of man never dies.”  The immortality of man’s soul has been preached since the first false prophet uttered the first lie spoken during the first false sermon which took place in the Garden of Eden.  This […]

In Romans 6:2,11 the Almighty (through the Apostle Paul) tells us that if we are truly converted (not saved–see Hope and Salvation) we are “dead to sin” and, because of this deadness, we will “live with Christ” in the hereafter (vs 8).  Beginning with verse 11 Paul makes abundantly clear the fact that, following conversion, […]

Due to their embrace of Satan’s interpretation of Romans 6:23 and other church “truths” (see the Introduction to this website), billions of parishioners “know” that, due to God’s unlimited grace, they are saved, born again and rapture-ready. They “know” that, due to Adam’s sin transferal miracle, they are programmed to sin with no possibility of […]

The whole of Catholicism/Protestantism (Sinners Saved By Grace–SSBG) claims that, thanks to Romans 6:23, the only difference between their pre-salvation lives and their post-salvation lives is that they now their sins are turned into righteousness upon repentance.  Having been forgiven for their most recent sin, they are cleared for the next sin.  Over time this […]

The purpose of learning God’s Truth is to shed light on the darkness of professing Christendom’s false truths.  See the Introduction to this website for a short list of such “darkness”/”truths.”  In the previous series I used God’s Truth (Word–Jn. 17:17) to expose Satan’s perverted interpretation of Romans 6:23.  Satan has successfully used his perversion […]

In order to understand man’s misinterpretation of Romans 6:23 we need to look at what the Apostle Paul wrote to the Church at Rome leading up to the focal verse.  The key to the entire misunderstanding is found in 5:18 where he reminds the church that death came by one man (Adam), but that the […]

Concerning the interpretation of the Holy Scriptures by man, the following are a few statements often heard when the Bible is the topic of conversation.  “How do you interpret ….”  “Well, I know this, we can interpret the Bible any way we want to.”  “God created denominations because different people interpret the Bible in different […]

To “translate” (to cross over) means to restate one language in another language so as to understand the first language.  To “interpret” what is spoken or written in one’s native tongue means to explain the meaning of the message.  Under normal circumstances this does not present a problem.  However, when the interpreter does not know […]

The Apostle Paul reflected back on his pre-conversion days in Romans 7 and ended his memorial ordeal by telling how he  called on Jesus Christ to free him for the sin-soaked life he had been leading.  He had always wanted to do good, but failed repeatedly.  But was this a real problem?  Today we are […]
