Answer 2

In the Original Kingdom Gospel, it meant that the person when through a genuine transformation... but I have to add that the Original Gospel is long gone, and was replaced with the idea that all you have to do is believe that Jesus died for you sins and rose from the dead.

That last part is called the Pauline Gospel... blood for sin... but keep in mind, that is nothing at all like the Original Kingdom Gospel.

This resource will explain the difference between those two gospels. Thanks for asking such an important question.

Answer 3

stored from eternal punishment , rather we've eternal existence in Jesus. Sin entered the worldwide with the help of Adam & Eve and the salary of sin is dying. whilst sin is forgiven then it is cancelled. confident we nevertheless do incorrect issues and a Christian shouldn't sin. yet if he does sin then Jesus maintains to forgive. we live decrease than God`s grace. Jesus dying on the go cancelled out Adam`s sin of disobedience. Adam became a suitable guy, and Jesus became additionally a suitable guy, so the balance of justice became comprehensive. all of us die and we can could desire to stand God on judgment day. the adaptation is, the `stored` isn't condemned, their sins are forgiven, and could enter eternal existence. On judgment day the unbelievers, having died of their sins, would be sent to Hell, the place Jesus stated "the hearth does not bypass out". this could be a psychological torment continually. And continually is an prolonged time. "For God so enjoyed the worldwide that He gave his in easy terms begotten Son that whoever believed in him shouldn't perish yet have eternal existence". John 3;sixteen

Answer 4

I'm Apostolic, we are the church that started on the Day of Pentecost as said in the book of Acts, we are before the Niacin Council, we have not changed our doctrine, we still believe what Peter preach is how to be saved, in Act 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Any who has not repented, who is not baptized In Jesus name (not the titles the powers in the name), and filled with the Holy Ghost do not yet have salvation

Answer 5

Good question. "and the angel said to Mary. 'You shall have a son and you shall name him Jesus for he will save his people from their sins.'"

You are first and foremost saved from God. All those who have not been born again suffer God's eternal wrath to be revealed on the Day of Judgment.

Those truly born again no longer have the sting of death, neither fear death because they have been given peace that passeth all understanding. Reconciliation with a Holy God through Jesus Christ whose suffering and death on the cross at Calvary was a propitiation to God. (acceptable sacrifice).

So those born again will live for eternity in God's presence (Heaven) and not suffer eternity in torments where their is weeping and gnashing of teeth (Hell).

Christian Universalism does not teach the existence of an eternal hell. We are saved from eternal death. Here are some resources for anyone interested in Christian Universalism:

Answer 7

Basically those two are the same, so the answer is yes. The second permanent death in the lake of fire that burns up sin and sinners so The Messiah can make all things new. (There is no eternal torture.)

Answer 8

As God saved and freed the Israelites from bondage and slavery to Egypt, so He saved and freed Mankind from bondage and slavery to sin. Christ paid the cost for this Gift. Sin kills. We are given freedom to choose freedom, to walk in it and come to know the glories and joys of life in God, which is filled with Light and Love. So we choose Light or darkness, and life goes on.

Answer 9

I've always hated that because that indicates that everyone else isn't and that you're better than them, it turns people off. Just say you're a Christian.

But yea that's what it means, I'm saved from hell and you're not. But how can you say that, you don't know for sure, God can only say.

Answer 10

I believe they mean saved from going to the hellish pit of fire and brimstone.

Despite the fact God is all good and loving, apparently if you don't adhere to a rigid set of social and religious rules made up mostly by Jewish, Greek and Roman men that's where you'll end up!

Have fun!
