Confess ... or agree?


Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 1 Jn 4:15

In this, the last blog post in our series titled With Understanding, we'll be looking at the word confess or confession and how that this word was perverted to mean almost the exact opposite of what it was translated as. We look at how the children of God are totally mislead by this.

Where do we come from?

Much like the word metanoia (to be with the same understanding) translated as repentance, the Greek word homologeō has been corrupted in translation.

Beware of Folly!


But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was. 2Ti 3:9

What is Paul going on about writing to his spiritual son, Timothy? He writes about folly and things that manifest and this happening in the end times ...

What is this all about?

Shouldn't we be listening to everyone who brings a Bible message?

Paranoia ... or metanoia

Can two walk together, except they be agreed? Amo 3:3


True friendship and intimacy come from a place where both parties agree with each other ... fixed and joint ... betrothed. Going in the same direction. Intimacy focused on each other.

This is also true about our relationship with God.

WHO GOD IS!

Charitoō

Listening to patients we visit during our weekly hospital outreach ministry, I have often wondered if we Christians have relationship with the same God?

I am frequently told by patients that God brings them adversity or sickness or tragedy or accidents or setbacks or some kind of affliction to test their faith.

That god stands in direct contrast to my God Who is always a God of all love goodness, kindness, patience, mercy and truth.

And so, I'm baffled by this other god who pretends to be the Christian god of so many Christians. 

I realize there must be a very potent deception and perversion of the Gospel infiltrating the institutional church in a sly and cunning way to portray an angry, sadistic and schizophrenic god that brings afflictions and punishment and chastisement.
