Do you need to confess your sins to God in order for God to forgive you? In other words, if you confess you sins to God he will forgive you, but if you don't, he won't? Or does 1 John 1:9 have a completely different meaning and purpose? Listen in as Mike and Kevin discuss thesingle most misunderstood verse in the New Testatment.

The church of born again believers, began on the day of Pentecost. On that day 3000 Jewish converts received the Holy Spirit and were born again. This is how things were until the Apostle Peter entered the home of Cornelius, a Gentile centurion.The Apostle Peter and fellow Jews "were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit of God had been poured out even on Gentiles" (Acts 10:45). For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all...(Romans 10:12).

The identity issue is central to our lives. Who we think we are determines what we do and how we live, but it is ever changing. Jesus, on the other hand, gives us a brand new identity, which never changes. When we put our faith in Him and are born again, Christ comes to live inside us. He gives us new life, makes us righteous, perfect and holy in His sight.

We all have a tendency to put our hope in the things of this world. There is nothing unusual about that, it's part of our human nature. But what if we could learn to put our hope in heaven on a daily basis? Or even within each hour? What would that be like? How would that affect the way we live?

Do you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jesus Christ is not counting your sins against you? Or are you still struggling with this "too good to be true" concept, that all your sins are forgiven by God; past, present and future? Listen in as Mike and Kevin talk about how God remembers your sins no more.

Some people believe the water baptism in necessary for salvation. Some people believe that because Jesus was baptized with water, they need to. What do the Scriptures say about baptism? Tune in as Mike and Kevin talk about it.

In our last podcast, we mentioned Bible verses about eternal security and that once we are saved by Jesus, we are saved completely and forever. In this podcast we discuss verses in the Book of Hebrews, that some use to teach Christians that they can walk away from God and lose eternal life. God forbid. We hope that after listening to this podcast, you will be fully convinced that you are eternally secure, forever and ever.

The doctrine of eternal security is one of the most important doctrines in the Scriptures. Knowing that God will never leave you, no matter what, is the very essence of the New Covenant and of the love of God. Listen in and see why you can never lose your salvation, once you have it.

In the Bible, the word righteous mean to be right with God. How can we know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that we are right in God's sight?  Does it come by works or by faith or a combination of the two?  Listen in to find out how this happens.

Most Christians would describe salvation this way...."Jesus died for my sins". Is there more to the message of salvation than Jesus's death on the cross for our sins? Romans 5:10 describes it this way..."For if, while we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!" Listen in as Mike and Kevin discuss this most important topic and verse.
