    ECT Scriptures against the false pre-tribulation rapture doctrine

    If you simply read the various prophetic verses about the return Christ, you will see … the Bible clearly teaches that believers will be gathered at His second coming … at the end of the tribulation … and NOT at some secret return before His second coming! Unfortunately, it would take too many...

    ECT Why the world has still not been evangelized

    From the beginning of the church until the end, it was supposed to be thus and so: The baptism with the Holy Spirit (with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues) was to be a pre-requisite for being chosen to be a part of the 5-fold ministry … Ephesians 4:11 -- apostle, prophet, evangelist...

    ECT NT words/terms must be defined by considering the whole NT

    Belief “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) This is ridiculous unless you understand what the NT means by “believe”, which is to truly believe in your heart, have faith in, trust...

But the NT warns of believers losing eternal life, gaining eternal death, being shut out of entering the kingdom of heaven, etc. So obviously, the following passage has been a thorn in my side of understanding …...

    ECT We were saved by God’s gift of grace (through faith, not by works)!

    “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) When we first come to Christ … we receive the gift of salvation by God’s grace through our faith, and not by any good works that we...

    ECT Is your pastor deceiving you, or is he just ignorant?

    The more I study the NT the more WARNINGS I see, but all the while … most pastors are preaching GRACE! Most of the NT was written to born-again Christians in the churches, so many warnings were written to YOU (if indeed you are born-again). However, most believers today are blind to them (for...

    ECT Warnings about missing heaven … to “believers” sitting in churches

    The many warnings in the 4 gospels were written to everyone, while ALL of the warnings in the 21 epistles (letters) were written to the churches. In Revelation, some warnings were to everyone while some were to the churches. Let us focus only on the warnings to the churches … and many of them...
