    The Presence of sin Part 2

    In this lesson the lecture continued on the presence of sin and how by Adam sin has entered the world or by one man. He explained how sin is present at conception of a child and not at birth, this still is quite interesting as it is so easy to believe that that sin can only be present in a child’s life at a later…

    • Wow, this is interesting that “Adam and Eve’s exile from the garden was an act of grace”. God is wonderful!!

      • Great session indeed!
        God disciplines us, not just for the sake of inflicting pain or making us face consequences, but in hope that we will become more like Him by means of the purging and redemptive work of whatever discipline we have to face. This is why we see the exile, a consequence of sin, as an act of God’s grace to give humanity the…

        • Great summary, Brother Andries!

          The storyline of the Bible traces the origin of sin from one man, the First Adam, to the defeat of sin in one man, the Last Adam (Jesus). Adam puts us all into trouble, but Jesus delivers us all from it by means of His blood.

          The provision of God’s Grace also provides us with spiritual gifts. And even if two people has the same type of gift, God uses each once gift that He provided in its own unique ways. Same gift but unique.

          • Amen! The Lord supplies us with all that we need for life and godliness. I particularly love the point on spiritual gifts. Sometimes we feel that because we have the same gift with someone, they should manifest in the same way that we do, or we should manifest in the same manner as them. But the truth is that each manifestation will be…

            The Provision of Grace part 1

            In this lesson it is made clear as also show in Romans 11:6 shows us that our works can not bring grace but that grace can not be grace if there was work for it involved. Grace does not have anything to do with any work to deserve it.

            Also i found it especially interesting that even…

            • Yes! The equation of grace and works has been completely missed by many. Works do not lead to grace, but grace leads to work. By God’s sovereign choice, we have been given grace for salvation and for ministry. In response to this gift of God, we do the works that have been prepared for us from the foundations of the world. So our works are…

              Predestination part 1

              Mat 22:14 NKJV “For many are called, but few [are] chosen.”

              This was a very interesting lession, there are many different viewpoints on the subject matter.

              I still found it amazing, as it is written in Romans 8:30 that as the Lord had foreknowledge of all things he predestined some not all whom…

              • I like this particular quotation that “a person’s acceptance of the salvation that is offered, is the only part of salvation that a person has and that salvation is only by God grace and always for His glory”. May God bless you very much
