Concordant Christology: Arianism vs Socinianism

Those of us in the ecclesia (or church) called the body of Christ — not to be confused with members of the Christian religion who mistakenly use our title — are not Trinitarians (nor are we Modalists, for the same reasons we don’t believe in the Trinity). As far as why we aren’t Trinitarians, I’ve written about that elsewhere,… Continue reading Concordant Christology: Arianism vs Socinianism

How one baptism proves two Gospels

Apparent contradictions in the Bible are some of the greatest evidences that there are at least two Gospels. Please note that I’m not saying these things actually are contradictions. I’m just saying that they seem to be contradictions if one doesn’t consider the proper context of each passage, and also that taking the context into… Continue reading How one baptism proves two Gospels

How Christians walk according to flesh

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 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 number of… Continue reading One God, the Father

Is it another gospel or is it not another gospel?

Please also keep in mind, however, that… Continue reading Is it another gospel or is it not another gospel?

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

Are you in a cult? Comparing the Christian religion vs the body of Christ to the BITE model

After first learning about the doctrines held to by those of us in the body of Christ, referring to what is sometimes known as “Concordant” theology, some Christians will accuse us of being in a cult, which is pretty ironic, for reasons that should become clear after reading this post. Now, to be fair, any… Continue reading Are you in a cult? Comparing the Christian religion vs the body of Christ to the BITE model

Why only Universalists can be saved

As I mentioned in my last article, few Christians understand what it is that the Gospel which Paul taught means, and because of that, it seems safe to say that very few Christians have been saved yet. (I’m referring to salvation from a relative perspective, I should say, meaning the salvation that brings one into… Continue reading Why only Universalists can be saved
