To hear most Christians talk about it, you’d think that sins are something we should actively avoid committing. When the street preachers here in Toronto give their sermons, the focus is always on sin and how our sinful actions will send us to an afterlife realm called “hell” if we don’t get our sin dealt… Continue reading How Christians walk according to flesh

The writings of John are not about Gentiles
One of the many mistakes I see the Toronto street preachers I’ve written about frequently make in their various sermons is just how often they preach from the book commonly known as “the Gospel according to John,” and how they assume the verses they read from that book apply to the people hearing the sound… Continue reading The writings of John are not about Gentiles
One God, the Father
Those of us “Concordant” believers in the true body of Christ are not Trinitarians (we aren’t Modalists either, for many of the same reasons we don’t believe in the Trinity). I’m not going to get into the reasons for why we’re not Trinitarians here, however, but instead I’m going to provide a list of links to a… Continue reading One God, the Father

Confessing and believing
”That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” – Romans 10:9-10 Misunderstanding what Paul wrote in Romans… Continue reading Confessing and believing
Kingdom come?
Is the kingdom of God a present reality or a future promise? One of the biggest mistakes one can make when it comes to the question of whether the kingdom already exists or whether it’s still yet to fully begin on earth is to assume the answer is anything other than: Yes. Recently, due to… Continue reading Kingdom come?
Salvation through mutilation
How is it that one is saved from “hell”? Well, it looks like Jesus told us exactly how, and all you need are some surgical instruments: Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed,… Continue reading Salvation through mutilation
“…all men, especially…”
There are lots of other passages I can use as well, and I have in other places on this website, but I can show you, using two simple verses of Scripture, that God will save all humanity. First, Galatians 6:10, where Paul wrote, “As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men,… Continue reading “…all men, especially…”
Simple proof that the body of Christ is not the Israel of God
Most of us in the actual body of Christ (not to be confused with the Christian religion) are well aware of the fact that there is more than one Gospel in Scripture (at least we are if we’ve been a member for much time at all), and that the end result of believing the different… Continue reading Simple proof that the body of Christ is not the Israel of God
