Oh that is talking about people doing you wrong. Vengeance belongs to God, leave that to the Father to deal with such people. (Romans 12:19)

I'm talking about one of the key secret, not many Christian know or allow it to happen.

In our Life, the battle belongs to our Lord.

2 Chronicles 20:15 (KJV) - .....Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.


hmmm maybe another devotion on this.

This opportunity to spend time grieving with Jesus.

Pour it all out.

This is my encouragement song, very anointed & uplighting and very very powerful worship song IMO!

They are cults. Deviated and form their own religion. They're not real Christianity.

Non Virgin can marry in church provided she has accepted the Lord Jesus Christ and (depending on Churches), they have to be member of that Church.

That's why I'm in Love with God, he's the God of 2nd chances.

Have a feeling it's because of his GF, that got him started, (his curiosity) about Christianity.

I think he has not really pursue seriously enough to accept the answers. Got the feeling He's also unsure ......

That is not true.

Jesus made it easy for everyone to enter Heaven.

We are the one trying to nullify God's work with tradition and religion and the hypocrisy of self righteousness by quoting God's word out of context.

I will fight* this till the day I pass on against Legalistic and Pharisaical teachings that goes against the Grace of God.

*Not talking about you.

Welcome Bro,

Northern Sabahan?

How do you know only a few will make it to Heaven?

Now you're thinking.

Actually if you re-read and study what the Bible says about Grace, it's the only antidote and solution that will bring people out of self centredness.

We may think it sounds weak but God is divine, He uses weak things to confound the wise.

Actually I think He's making a case that it's hard but not impossible to go to Heaven which is one xtreme end, not the complete truth.


I think I need to expound a bit on this tonight.

I think it's just confusion between words, both of them are actually agreeing the same thing.

1. Few can go to Heaven and
2. Few can enter Heaven.

Bible Devotions with UW

Be secure in Christ



Dear Friends,

I would like to expound on 2 scripture verses to sate your spiritual appetite.

The first one is Ephesian 1:7 where is says In Him, we we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace.

I want you to look and focus on the word In Him. In Christ we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins!.
God wants you to know, that the security of your Salvation is IN HIM. In Christ. So keep your Faith, your eyes, Your Focus, YOUR EVERYTHING IN HIM.

IF and when you fail in your spiritual life or your walk with God, Keep looking IN HIM! In Who? Your Failures? Your Disobedience? In What you have said or done wrong?
No! Look and Focus IN HIM! IN CHRIST. Why? Because when you look IN CHRIST you have have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace!

THEN I want you to look at Hebrews 6:19: (NIV) - We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain.
Look and focus on the word firm and secure.

When you combine these 2 verses, you will realize God wants you to know ; In CHRIST (IN HIM) you are firm and secure.
BUT UW, How can I be secure? You don't understand, I failed at times in my walk with God. I sin at times, I look at pornography at time, I look in lust at times.

Here is where your problem lies.
God wants you to look IN HIM but you're looking at yourself. Bingo!

This is where the devil got you. Satan wants you to focus your Salvation IN YOU(yourself) rather than IN HIM(Christ)
Do you know why? When you're so focus on what you do or what you say as the condition. You are done before the day is finish. We are all imperfect beings. Satan knows that. God knows that.

God says according to the Bible: IN HIM (CHRIST). Satan is Anti God and will reverse whatever God wants to establish and will deceive by saying LOOK IN YOURSELF, whether you have repented enough, obeyed enough, be Holy enough.

Friends. This is the divine truth. There is no mixture. There is no such thing, as looking and trusting in Jesus, at the same time, being confident of your act of obedience together with Christ that gives you the ticket to Salvation.

There is No Such thing. The Bible says in Romans 11:6 (NIV) - And if by grace, then it cannot be based on works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace. God is very serious on this. Even Jesus said the wineskin will burst.

It's your choice really. You can either trust in the Bible, the word of God, to look to Jesus as your Saviour or you can trust in yourself, in what you do, that you have acted righteously, have walk correctly and talk correctly. Choose this day, who you are secure in.

I'll leave you with one final verse for you to decide and ponder. Colossians 3:3.

God Bless.

Ha the greatest misunderstanding.

Those under Grace can sin as they want. It means you don't really understand how powerful Grace is.

What does Titus 2:11-12 (NIV) says?


11 For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. 12 It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, [/u]

These are the same accusation level at the apostle Paul when He preached Grace.

Romans 6:15 (NIV)
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means!

As what you accuse me, happened to Apostle Paul also.

It means that many people don't really understand what He preached. Paul was a very strong preacher of God's grace.

Titus 2:11-12 explains that Grace is the only antidote that will bring people out of their sin.

and this coincide with


Romans 6:14 (NIV) - For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.

You are to repent yes but you don't have the strength to repent. Grace will give you that opportunity.
Titus and Romans was written by apostle Paul under the inspiration of the Holy spirit, expounding on God's Grace.

It's like this.

If you put yourself under Law: I must not do this, I must not do that, the design of God's Law will bind you. You will be powerless and be subjected to the dominion of Sin.
That is what Romans 6:14 says. Sin shall not be your master under Grace. This means that the flipside is also true. Sin shall be your master under Law.
Read it again.

Put yourself under Grace, Sin loses it's power over you.
That is what Romans 6:14 means when it says (ESV) For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.
The overcoming power to dethrone sin is Grace.

Then you may ask me but UW, how can that be? I'm very sinful in nature.
My Answer to you would be: Yes you are right. So the way out of this, is to look away from yourself (must not do this, must not do that) and focus on Christ (grace)
That is what my devotion is all about in post #1882.

Do you know that Grace is not a subject but the person of Jesus Christ?

Come to Calvary near Bukit Jalil if you drive. Always welcome those didn't go to Church for long time.

You don't care but God cares.

The purpose of the Grace of God is to lead you out of Sin, not cause you to remain in it.

No doubt our acts doesn't earn us any Salvation but that doesn't mean we are not to set our mind on Holy Living.
Because that is how we're going to live in God's kingdom anyway. If that is our goal in life, why contradict what God has asked us to do?

What you're suggesting so far is not what Jesus teaches in the Bible.

Because acceptance of a wrong act can lead to another.
Soon you will lose sight of what is wrong or right. It will become blur.

You will be living a semi destructive or completely defeated life on earth.
Ask yourself why you lack the Faith to trust in God completely. That will give you an idea.
