FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:
‘BACK TO EDEN’ MEANS MUCH MORE THAN ORIGINAL DIET
“God the Father always worked through His Son, both in creation and redemption (Gen. 1:1-24; Col. 1:15-19; Heb. 1:1-3,8]. Therefore it was Jesus Christ who created ‘the heavens and the earth’ and ‘rested the seventh day.’
‘All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made. He was in the world and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not.’ John 1:3,10,KJV.

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:
CLAIMING THE MERITS OF CHRIST’S CLOSING WORK OF ATONEMENT
Mainstream Christianity clings to the mistaken idea that Christ’s work for the redemption of sinners ended at the cross. When Jesus said, “It is finished” as He was expiring, it was the sacrifice of His life and and shedding of His blood that was “finished” as the “Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world.”
He then resurrected after His death to become our merciful High Priest, pleading His own blood in behalf of all penitent sinners who are repenting and confessing their sins. This is how the repentant sinner is justified by the blood of Christ, never by his “works!!”
