Unrighteousness is another sin that leads to death (1 Corinthians 6:9).

This is part 2 of the video teaching “What is sin that leads to death” by Alan Ballou. Here is a link to part 1.

Every Christian in the world needs to know these verses regardless of their denomination. Those who reject these verses will be very comfortable among the dead (Proverbs 15:9-10, Psalm 50:16-17). Continue reading →

Why Are They Against Religion? by alan ballou

Today I read an article in Time Magazine, but you can open any Christian publication today, and find the same thing. Professing Christians seem to hate religion. Many are saying that they have been liberated after years of being held in bondage by what they are calling religion.

Is there a preacher left that preaches the Gospel? By Alan Ballou

You might say, “That’s a stupid question,” but you would be asking the same question if you knew what was in the Gospel according to your Bible. The Gospel of the Kingdom, which Jesus preached, and the Apostles preached, is the same Gospel that we should be hearing, and it contains much more than what we might hear in a typical Bible belt church today.

In fact, you will probably never hear a complete Gospel. Yes Christ died for our sins, He was buried, and He rose again on the third day (1 Corinthians 15:3-4). Praise God! However, that is far from a complete Gospel. In fact, we can get saved, and then reject the Gospel, as many are doing today (John 6:60-69). Here are the parts of the Gospel that you will not hear.

Don’t be so spiritually minded that you are no earthly good. By Alan Ballou

Why do you have to be so serious they ask? Don’t be so spiritually minded that you are no earthly good. The Lord rebukes you! What day will you get serious about the Christian life? Will it be before or after the door closes and the owner says “Away from Me, I never knew you” (verse 25 below)?

Luke 13:23-28

23 Then one said to Him, “Lord, are there few who are saved?” And He said to them, 24 “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able. 25 When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’ and He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you, where you are from,’ 26 then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.’ 27 But He will say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.’ 28 There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and yourselves thrust out. NKJV

Let me give you a bit of news here. I wasn’t any earthly good when the Lord found me and pulled me up out of the fire and gave me Words to speak. And yet now I should be less serious when millions have been tricked into thinking that they cannot be kicked out of the Kingdom all because someone of high standing in the world’s eyes declares they can’t be (verse 28 above, Matthew 13:40-43)? What! Is the alarm not going off at your house? Can you not hear it? Continue reading →

How can church be reduced to a hopeless support group? By Alan Ballou.

Spiritual principles work regardless if we know them or not. The Bible says that God’s people are destroyed for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6). That means that even church going people experience needless destruction in their life time because they simply do not know spiritual principles.

God has already given His people everything (all things) we would ever need for this life, but it comes through our knowledge of Him, meaning that we “have to know Him and His ways” in order to receive what He has “already given us” (2 Peter 1:3-4 below).

Think about that for a second. God, being God, already knew and has already declared that church attending people would live without the things they need because they do not come to know Him and His ways. So what have we been doing in church all this time? Continue reading →

Is the forest pitch black beyond the fifth row of trees? By Alan Ballou; a servant.

Who am I to bother you? Who am I to say “take this path?” Has not the Lord made everything to contribute to its own end, according to the Word of the Lord, written in Proverbs 16:4? Do not the wicked contribute to their own destruction, as surely as the righteous believe and accept what the Lord has prepared for them (Romans 4:21-24, Matthew 25:34)?

Who can be wise and not speak in line with what the Lord wrote (Isaiah 8:20)? Is not wisdom from the Lord? The thoughts of the humanly wise are useless, and the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God (1 Corinthians 3:19-20). What is highly valued among the people of this world is detestable in God’s sight (Luke 16:15). Who dresses a pig the day before the slaughter and claims to be wise? Continue reading →

Are Pentecostal’s the only ones that accept and believe 1 Peter 3? I should ask what believing women should wear to church?

First of all I would like to say that if you believe that you have to wear green socks in order to attend a church gathering, then you should do just that (Romans 14:14). Belief is critical and by simply going against your conscience you can be defiled (made useless, 1 Corinthians 8:7, Romans 14 23). Check the verses.

You might be thinking that having to wear green socks is not written in the Bible, but so are a lot of other things that churches require of those who attend. Therefore, understand what I’m saying here. If some preacher has tricked you into believing that you have to wear green socks to church, then you should wear them until you renew your mind with the “truth” written in God’s Word.

We should obey God rather than men (Acts 5:29, below), but at the same time, anything that is not from faith is sin (Romans 14:23, below). In other words, if you do not believe that God allows what you are doing, in accordance with His Word, then don’t do it.

Acts 5:29 But Peter and the other apostles answered and said:”We ought to obey God rather than men. NKJV

Romans 14:23 But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not eat from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin. NKJV

The solution is to first renew your mind with what is actually written in the Bible, and then you will know what you “should” believe before you violate your conscience. Belief is critical, and that’s why that Bible says, “blessed are the people who do not condemn themselves by what they approve” (Romans 14:22). I cannot tell you to wear anything that you do not believe that you can wear in love.

Now concerning how women should dress, read 1 Peter 3:1-6 (below) for yourself. Once you know the truth for yourself, then you cannot be tricked by someone else’s interpretation of what God says (Ephesians 4:13-14).

The Bible also says, “Do not go beyond what is written” (1 Corinthians 4:6-7), and “do not add to the Word of God” (Proverbs 30:5-6). Therefore, know that anytime we add our own rules to what is actually written in our Bibles, we are not living by faith, and are no better off than the Pharisees of old, who added their own man-made rules to everything (Matthew 15:8-9). If it is not written in the Bible, then it is not needed for this life or godliness (2 Peter 1:3-4). Check the verses. Continue reading →
