Grace at LAST

Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we ask the question “Should I fear God?” There are scriptures that imply I should but fearing God seems inconsistent with the foundational truths of the new covenant, total and complete forgiveness. Today we begin our discussion with Paul appealing to work out our salvation with fear and trembling that we read about in Philippians 2:12. What can understand by thi...

Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we look at where the dividing line is with the old and new covenant. Additions have been made to our Bibles in an effort “to help us” identify locations of certain words and truths. Title Pages, Chapters, Verses, Table of Contents, have all been added by a publishing company. While that may be helpful in some ways, there are precautions we should be mindful of wh...

Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we look at where our teaching got off and Law and Grace mixture became the norm for our churches today. Where did it begin and what was passed down so that the line between God’s covenant with people before and after the cross became so fuzzy? Are we required to do what our leaders tell us to do and how do we know when we should listen to their words and follow ,...

60-Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we look at scriptures that are used to control people. Many times we are mistaught or taken out of context certain verses and it may put ourselves or others under bondage that is not of God. Many times, we are told we need to ask for forgiveness and obey our leaders that teach us the Bible. All of that is in the Bible but when it is taught to those who are in...

59-Today we look at the Pharisees of Jesus’ day and see what we can learn. Jesus had a lot of emotions toward these people that were supposed to represent God. He did not seem to be pleased with them at all as they enforced their rules and for profit pressure upon the people. The scribes knew the scriptures as well as anyone, the chief priests were the mediator for God and the people and they took...

58-Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we explore some prayers that are common in “the church” and ask the question “Is this relevant for me today?” If we waste our time praying futile prayers that are not applicable for me today, what purpose is my prayer? If I don’t understand how God wants to have a relationship with me and I believe things are for me that are not, could I be missing out on what...

57-Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we look at old covenant prayers that keep us in bondage. Believing lies is bondage and when we believe God is dealing with us the same way He did before Jesus came, it will keep us fromexperiencing the fullness of what is provided toward those who believe. Continuing to clarify the lines of the old and new covenant is important as we seek understanding of what...

56-Today on Grace at LAST podcast we look at forgiveness and ifwe can ask for it?  Is there any harm in acknowledging our sin and telling God how sorry we are if it makes us feel better? Afterall, we all sin and we must do something about it, right? We can’t just carry on as if it didn’t happen and take sin lightly.  To have an accurate answer to these valid questions, we must start with a foundat...

55-Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we look at the inheritance Jesus has left us and some of the things Paul prayed for Gentile believers in Ephesians 1. We also talk about the struggles we encounter while still on this earth. We look at what enables us to stand in the day of evil and from where and how we can draw our power and strength. Ephesians 6 tells us God has given us armor and we look a...

54-Today on the Grace at LAST podcast we talk about the restraints other’s put on people to meet their own expectations. Women, children and other people groups are considered to be weaker and that can open the door to be controlled. Not everybody that wants to control others has their best interest at heart so we need to be sure we have a proper perspective of authority in the church and in our l...

53-Today on the Grace at LAST podcast we continue to look atthe role women play in the church. We look at Jesus’ perspective of women andsee what Paul had to say after the cross and resurrection. Does God see womenas the weaker vessel in the sense she is inferior and not capable of as much asa man?  What is our role as women andwhat should the men understand when it comes to the Father’s heart reg...

52-On today's Grace at LAST podcast, Mike Adams joins us and shares his insight and research regarding women in the church. Have we been believing things about women's place and authority in the church and the body of Christ as a whole that are just not true? Have things been told and taught that silence women preventing them from functioning in their gifting? What is the role of a woman i...

51-Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we look at prayers that make sense in the covenant of grace. Do the prayers in the gospel writings get me anywhere with God or amI wasting my time praying for something I already ossess? What should I be cautious of when it comes to who I learn from and how can I be sure I am not being taught lies to further someone else’s agenda? What does God want me to unde...

Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we look at prayer. Often times prayer is taught in steps and formulas,and we create prayer lists to be sure we are covering all of the important areas of life. But is that anywhere in the Bible? Does scripture support these disciplines that we do that often times, make us feel holy and obedient? Is this something that pleases God and does He expect us all to get...

49-Today on the Grace at LAST podcast we look at church attendance and ask if God is more pleased when I participate? Are the messages that are coming from the pulpit centered around the new covenant, which is the blood of Jesus, or is it more about fear to try and stir up obedience from the people? Is manipulation going out in an effort for pastors and entrepreneurs to build an empire and how can...

48-Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we talk about depression and the answer. Knowing about joy and peace is very different than experiencing it in our life. I know the promises of God are good, but how do I get there? What single truth can I learn that could change my entire life and how can I avoid allowing the enemy to steal, kill and destroy the abundant life Jesus came to give me? We also ta...

47-Today we looked our starting place and when the new covenant begins.  Does Jesus tell us to follow all His commandments, or does He say the new covenant began when He died? What is our inheritance and how can I know that I can start spending it today? We explore the necessity for forgiveness to be possible and how we go about receiving it from the Lord when we mess up. We also look at prayers t...

35-On today’s Grace at LAST podcast, we looked at how God feels about us living to the fullest. Does God desire for me to decrease so there is more of Jesus and less of me? I believe God created us all unique and special and we can embrace who we are and who others are also. Acceptance is so important if we are going to experience the rest that Jesus is offering us to enjoy.  As we continue to rea...

46-Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we ask some questions about where the control is coming from in our lives.  Are we careful to listen and follow the Holy Spirit inside of us, or are we still being controlled by other people? When it comes to our relationship with God, we are free to hear and follow the voice of the Holy Spirit saying this is the way, walk in it.  We are reminded we are the ch...

45-Today on our Grace at LAST podcast we look at how we are changed and acceptable to God. Is God more pleased with us when we give money, go to church, read our Bibles, and do other religious things? Do I go to church because I think it is required of me as a Christian, or am I free to be led by the Holy Spirit and do what He puts on my heart? Will other’s judge me if I don’t participate in these...

44-Today we look at our premise, our starting point. Are we sharing messages and thinking more about what we are doing, or is Christ really the center of the gospel we share? Have we shrunk Jesus and magnified our works and embrace psychology and formulas to the simple message of grace? Is the Bible really Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth or have we missed the true message of the finished w...

43-Today on the Grace at LAST podcast we talk about our perspective. How are we looking at life? God has given us an opportunity to live with His perspective from way up high where our troubles look small and are not too difficult for Him. The question is are we going to Him or are we going to other people, places, and things to get our deepest needs met? Are we forfeiting the inheritance Jesus le...

42-Today we look at the forgiveness subject. Understanding the finality of the cross and what Christ has accomplished on our behalf, will propel us into the reality of the inheritance Jesus brought to us in the new covenant. Understanding the Law of Moses and what relevance that is today, is also vital in our understanding if we are going to walk in the fullness of our inheritance in Christ. What...

41-On today’s Grace at LAST podcast, we look at what God expects of us. Are we required to sacrifice this life to live for Jesus?  Does God need us to preach the salvation message or people will perish and it will be our fault for not sharing? Does God give us books, devo’s, and sermons to tell us how to think or is there a better relationship available with God? Living from the inside out, not mi...
