Things New and Old

Ancient truths revealed in the Scriptures are often forgotten, disbelieved or distorted, and therefore lost in the passage of time. Such ancient truths when rediscovered and relearned are 'new' additions to the treasury of ancient truths.

Christ showed many new things to the disciples, things prophesied by the prophets of old but hijacked and perverted by the elders and their traditions, but which Christ reclaimed and returned to His people.

Many things taught by the Apostles of Christ have been perverted or substituted over the centuries. Such fundamental doctrines like salvation by grace and justification have been hijacked and perverted and repudiated by sincere Christians. These doctrines need to be reclaimed and restored to God's people.

There are things both new and old here. "Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things"
2Ti 2:7.

In eternal salvation: ALL the saving acts are solely God's alone


In eternal salvation: ALL the saving acts are solely God's alone - from eternity unto eternity, from predestination unto glorification.

Many of God's children: the Calvinists and Arminians alike, won't receive this humbling truth.

Romans 8:
29 ¶ For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

The unlearned and unstable believers will wrest this passage, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction (temporal)

They will insist on reading the activities of men into the passage above... twisting the divine effectual call into gospel call by the preachers... the vital justification by God's free grace into the practical justification by their faith, etc.

Take a look at this article; save yourselves from some lies.
