“ Great Sermon! ” What an excellent in-depth teaching on Justification and Sanctification. Thank you for all your hard work. I thank God for your gift.
“ Great Sermon! ” Thank you, Pastor Hines, for clarifying the meaning of justification and how we get to heaven. God is blessing me with your teaching through your sermons and Bible studies.
“ Good Repentance Passage ” Here's a good passage refuting this idea that repentance is not repenting of sin.
Acts 8:22-23 ESV
REPENT, therefore, OF THIS WICKEDNESS OF YOURS, and pray to the Lord THAT, IF POSSIBLE, THE INTENT OF YOUR HEART MAY BE FORGIVEN YOU. [23] For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity."
“ Interesting ” Unsure that Paul's 'anathema' to those preaching "another gospel" (Gal. 1:8) means eternal damnation or temporal.
Historically, there has always been this controversy: eternal or temporal destruction/judgement.
With the latter holding sway given the context of his preceding verses (Gal. 1: 6-7), suggesting that even the apostles were capable of distorting, and also given the context of Acts 23: 14.1 and Cor 16:22. The point Paul that was emphasizing regarding his well known 'anathema' is, in my view, that should we learn of anyone teaching and/or preaching "another gospel", a false one, that we should avoid them, akin to their having a deadly contagious disease.
“ Excited for the series ” This was a great start to the series! Thank you for giving a clear picture of the historical timeline and cultural background - super helpful.
“ what a beautiful and encouraging sermon ” Your ability to use the word of God to help encourage Christians at a distance, Texas, from you is truly a gift from God. I forwarded this sermon to my brother in Arizona.
Thank you

“ Great Sermon! ” Thank you, Pastor Hines! I’ll be listening to this series alongside 3 other friends. We’re excited for it! This first one was a great opening sermon, I’m tempted to jump straight into #2!
“ one question, great sermon ” I think the baptist baptizes based on the person's confession of faith. Baptists are not saying they should discern the tares from the wheat.
