The Grace Message

If God has forgotten your sins, why haven’t you? You’ve been forgiven – but do you actually believe it? Or are you still treating forgiveness like a mortgage or car payment, chipping away at it with apologies and requests for cleansing? It’s time to ditch that religious mindset. Jesus didn’t die in installments, so your forgiveness isn’t little by little. The cross actually worked, so God remembers your sins no more! If He’s declared your forgiveness a done deal, why are you still keeping score? Don’t be like some who spend their whole lives in church and still miss the incredible truth of total forgiveness. Watch now and rest in what Jesus accomplished! Discussion Questions: 1. How did the Old Testament people experience forgiveness? Why? 2. How many times did Jesus die? Why is this so important? 3. React to this statement: If God is satisfied with the sacrifice of Jesus, you should be too. 4. What is the significance of standing versus being seated in Hebrews 10? 5. React to this statement: God remembers your sins no more! 6. Why is our forgiveness expressed in past tense so many times? 7. How do judgment and condemnation factor in here? Explain in light of the cross. 8. What about the Lord’s Supper? How can we more fully celebrate it with the right focus?

How do I stop blaming myself for a health issue that may (or may not) be a consequence of my choices? How do I break free from the fear of death? What's the meaning of the parable in Matthew 25 about the virgins, the lamps, and the oil? Who is the cloud of witnesses in Hebrews 12:1? How do I practically "fix my eyes" on Jesus and let go of any sin that entangles me?

My friend has a form of religious OCD, and she needs help. Can you offer any advice? Is artificial intelligence inherently evil? How can my mind be renewed when I’m so overwhelmed by circumstances?

I received a frightening diagnosis today, and now I’m wondering what happens to Christians when they die? How can I know for sure that the grace of God is real? What about salvation being certain and secure? If God loves everyone, why do some people suffer so much?

If God is love, and if love keeps no record of wrongs, then isn’t the whole world forgiven and saved? Wouldn’t that mean no final judgment? Is “once saved, always saved” really the truth? And what about Christians who end up sinning so badly?

Does Luke 9 really mean that we have to die daily? Why would we confess our sins to God? Why would we confess to other people? Is our forgiveness hanging in the balance?

What does the number 666 mean? Can anyone actually know God well? How can I have more self control in my life? Is it possible for a believer to lose their salvation?

Did religion get the gospel completely backwards? Religion loves to make the Gospel complicated. It tells you grace is risky, that you owe God, that you need to keep Jesus as Lord – like He’s in danger of losing the title. But what if that’s all backwards? Join me as we embrace the radical truth about God’s grace and our safety in Him. We unravel the misconception of Lordship salvation, explore the true meaning of predestination, and answer what’s up with working out salvation with fear and trembling. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’ve been sold a distorted gospel, this message is for you. Watch now and discover the love and grace of God is better than you ever imagined! Discussion Questions: 1. What are the “two unchangeable things” that anchor our soul? How? 2. What is the only sin mentioned in ten chapters of Hebrews? Why does this matter? 3. React to this statement: The wages of sin is death. Jesus died. There’s no wages left for you! 4. How do we best understand Philippians 2:12-13? Work out? Fear and trembling? 5. What is Lordship salvation? Why can it be damaging? What’s the truth? 6. React to this statement: Predestination is God’s secret plan (now revealed) to bring salvation to the Gentiles. 7. Does God’s radical grace make you want to sin more? Why or why not?

What do the two trees in the Garden of Eden represent? How does this relate to our lives today? I’m struggling with the concept of Hell. I feel like I’m being attacked by Satan when I’m alone. Is it possible for a believer to not go to Heaven?

What did Jesus write in the sand when the adulterer stood before her accusers? My wife and I are separated, and I wonder: What's the best path forward? Is worshipping Mary a salvation issue? I attended a funeral, and the priest said the deceased would be "raised on the last day." But I also know that "absent from the body" is "present with the Lord." So, how do we reconcile those two realities?
