What is the Word of Faith or Positive Confession Belief?

Last updated on: November 23, 2018 at 3:00 pm By Jack Wellman

Is the Word of Faith or Positive Confession movement biblical? Power in the Word There is power in the Word of God. Not so much in the word of man. Of course, our words can hurt others and they can also build others us. We know that “With his mouth the godless man would destroy his neighbor” (Prov 11:9a), and that “There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing” (Prov...

How The Exodus Typifies Salvation

Last updated on: November 19, 2018 at 2:02 pm By Jack Wellman

The Exodus of Israel from Egypt is a great example of salvation. The Bondage of Sin The Apostle Paul wrote that “the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God” (Rom 8:20-21), but before believers were saved, they too were held in bondage….the bondage of sin, and a bondage as...

How Handel’s Messiah Handles Theology

Last updated on: November 11, 2022 at 2:02 pm By Jack Wellman

Handel’s Messiah is not only biblically sound in its theology, but it’s sound is Biblical. George Frideric Handel George Frideric Handel’s (1685–1759) “Messiah” is among the most recognized songs on earth, and is familiar to almost every nationality on earth.

3 Things That Bring On Spiritual Attacks

Last updated on: November 13, 2018 at 2:55 pm By Jack Wellman

What 3 things can the believer do that may bring on spiritual attacks from the enemy? Obedience Why do demons attack? What does the Bible say the reason is? May I suggest these 3 reasons that spiritual warfare happens. Demonic or spiritual attacks come from studying the Word of God, from teaching the Word, from obeying the Word of God, from sharing the Word of God, and from growing in the Word of God. Satan and his minions don’t waste... Read more

Blind Bartimaeus And The Salvation Of The Sinner

Last updated on: October 24, 2018 at 3:49 pm By Jack Wellman

The account of Jesus healing a blind man named Bartimaeus is similar to how a person is saved. The Gospel I’ve heard it said that repentance and faith are two sides of the same coin, and that coin refers to salvation, and when we read the gospels, we read about repentance and faith. Naturally, the gospel is introduced by Jesus Christ. Shortly “after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, and saying, “The time is... Read more

Christian, Examine Thyself

Last updated on: October 22, 2018 at 5:15 pm By Jack Wellman

No Christian is perfect, but there are certain things that believers should look for in their lives. First John 1 The Book of 1 John may be one of the greatest self-diagnostic tools a believer has in their Bible. For example, it tells us what our relationship should look like with other believers and with the world. This book also tells us that “If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do... Read more

Why Is Confession Necessary If We’re Already Forgiven?

Last updated on: October 22, 2018 at 2:12 pm By Jack Wellman

There are many examples of confession in the Bible, but since God forgave us, why do we still need to confess our sins? Confess What? God tells all people everywhere to repent (Acts 17:30), and Jesus specifically said we must repent and believe (Mark 1:15), but where does confession fit in? The Apostle John wrote, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9),... Read more

What Does It Mean, “Work Out Your Own Salvation?”

Last updated on: October 22, 2018 at 1:54 pm By Jack Wellman

Paul says we should work out our own salvation, so does this mean we’re saved by our own works? Salvation Jesus Christ introduced the gospel by saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel” (Mark 1:15), so apparently, repentance and faith are two sides of the same coin that allow us to receive eternal life, and this is received only through Jesus Christ (John 6:44; Acts 4:12). Salvation is... Read more

When It’s All About Angels, It’s Not About God

Last updated on: October 18, 2018 at 6:34 pm By Jack Wellman

Are there guardian angels? Should we be interested in angels, even praying to them? Fascinated by Angels I Googled the word “angel” and came up with almost 2 billion hits! So why do so many have an almost preoccupation with angels, but not seemingly with Christ? I actually know a couple of people who sometimes pray or ask that their angels go with them or pray for them to protect someone, but should we put our safety in the hands... Read more
