A brother of mine wrote this and i wanted to share! Over on TikTok I see people spend their time arguing with others over the name of God . We have people trying to worship God all over the earth and I don’t believe they have created their own god out of defiance. They are simply doing same thing we are. The best they can with what they have. During my life I’m limited to the resources that are available at this time, in the future I’m sure as time goes on Gods word will continue to reveal itself. Truth is none of us can properly explain God Almighty. If so He wouldn’t be God or worth serving. He’s way beyond our comprehension. To sit back and argue. Falls right into what Satan wants. He doesn’t want anyone bringing people to Christ during this time because it will end this dispensation of Grace . To talk about that finished work that Christ accomplished at Calvary will shine Gods light into their hearts and He will begin the work in them. As time goes on their view or opinion or God will change as scripture is built up in them . What we can do is pray . Pray they study , pray they give Gods word the final authority and they will find out . Most of what I believed and was taught was wrong when compared to scripture. He is before all things and by him all things consist. It wasn’t just Jesus Christ hanging on the cross . God was in Christ. He was reconciling the world , all things , whether they be in heaven or on earth were reconciled to him in the body of his flesh . That finished work, separated the light from the dark. It set those who were bound by the law free and produced the way for everyone to receive salvation through the preaching of the cross. I think the biggest error i was taught was the gospel, which is not John 3:16 The Gospel of Salvation is 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 King James Version 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Oncei came to terms with what truly took place at Calvary i took off like a rocket. When Jesus rose from the dead the sins of the world stayed in the grave. To truly trust in him and what he did alone at Calvary. I got this. 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. 15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: 18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, 19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: 22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. Phil 1:6. Being confident. I didn’t get that until I got out of the church and into my bible . To geOver on TikTok I see people spend their time arguing with others over the name of God .

Phil 1:6. Being confident. I didn’t get that until I got out of the church and into my bible . To get in that Bible bubble, means I separated myself from everyone around me and found out for myself what the word said. When you have that light bulb moment you will be faced with a choice. Do you continue to live the lie? Or does this change everything?
