Repent and Believe Podcast w/ Cynthia Smalls

Today's Study Scripture: Psalm 51 (A Study on true repentance by King David, Israel's 2nd King) The Bible calls David "a man after God's own heart" twice. The first time was by the prophet Samuel who anointed him as backslidden King Saul's successor, "But now your kingdom should not continue. The Lord has sought for him a man after his own heart." And second time by the Apostle Paul who recounted...

Study Text: Romans 7 & 8 “No condemnation” can be defined in courtroom language. To have “no condemnation” declared means to be found innocent of the accusation, to have no sentence inflicted and no guilty verdict found. By the grace of God, believers in Jesus Christ will not face the condemnation of God. “We have passed from death to life” (1 John 3:14). The Bible teaches that every human bei...

Study Romans chapters 6, 7, and 8. Daily we struggle with sin! As long as we live in these mortal bodies, sin will always try to drag us back to the pit of despair and destruction! Back to the horrendous days in the Kingdom of Satan! But glory be to God "through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death." And we have this to hang our hats on w...

Scripture Texts: Luke 22:24-34 (NIV); Genesis 4:7 (NIV & CEV); James 1:13-15 (NIV) Us to sin: "NO MEANS NO & THAT'S ALL TO IT!! Satan sifts believers, his goal is to damage our faith so much that we’re useless to God. He wants us shelved far from the action of the Lord’s kingdom!! Therefore, he goes for our strengths – the area where we believe ourselves to be invincible or at least, very...

Scripture Text: Hosea 5:1-15; 6 Matthew 23:39 Romans 11 John 10:1-8 Can two exist in a marriage relationship where one is constantly unfaithfully acting like a harlot? Yet, of all the nations that have existed on the earth, the only one that God made a covenant with did this to Him. God entered into no other relationship with any other nation in all of the history of mankind. Jesus tells Israel th...

You gotta be a "cold piece of work" if you cannot appreciate this Awesome Love!

The one who rejects the Lord Jesus Christ's perfect plan of Salvation will never receive eternal life. Jesus Christ has made salvation available to every person on the face of the Earth by dying on the cross for the sins of the world. Don't hedge your bet to think that your sins will go unpunished. That's a bet you will not win...why risk playing Russian roulette with your eternal soul so that you...

At the end of the thousand years, the devil will get out on probation. He will break probation and rise up against God one more time. At his final defeat, Satan will be cast into the Lake of Fire. After that, there will be a second resurrection of the unsaved dead. At this time or who have ever lived will be judged by the Lord. "And if anyone's name was not found written in the Book of Life, he wa...

Adam and Eve's disobedience to God condemned the world to sin, brokenness and death! Because of sin, humanity's relationship with God was severed. But in His love, God provided a way - the only way - Jesus Christ endured the punishment of humanity's sin by dying on the Cross. Through His death, burial and resurrection, Jesus conquered the power of sin and death so that people sins may be forgiven...

Three days after He died on the cross, Jesus of Nazareth rose from His grave. But why did this have to happen? You may have heard that this cross and resurrection is the center of the Christian Gospel, but why did He need to come back to life again? Here are 4 reasons.

Repentance is a decision! It means to change your mind about the way you've been living, you know - from doing your own thing. Having been convicted by the Holy Spirit, and with a contrite spirit, filled with godly sorrow and remorse, you are now saying, "I'm going to live to please Jesus, my Savior"!

Jesus was made perfect through suffering. Too often we think only of His suffering on the Cross, but Jesus suffered more than any other human being that ever lived!

See Part 1 for details.

Let's look to the Old Testament to see how God's wrath goes into full effect! This is a lesson in NOT what to do! Scripture Text: The Book of Jeremiah 4 & 5

Study Romans 9, 10, & 11: Let's not fall into Israel's sin of unbelief. Harden not your hearts to Jesus. For now is the day of salvation!

Lovingly exhortation to all of our newborn babes in Christ. Before you go out and teach and preach to the Body of Christ, you must go away quietly, like the apostle Paul did, and sit before the Lord to receive revelation from Him! Unfortunately, there are newbies in the Body of Christ who have not gleaned enough of true biblical doctrine from the Lord Jesus Christ and are erroneously presenting fa...

Jesus Christ is explicitly called God! There are over 100 proofs of the Deity of Jesus Christ in the Bible. Jesus said that He was God! He is the only door, there is salvation in no one else, He is the only mediator between God and man, for He alone is both God and Man! We would all die in our sins unless we believe in the person of Jesus! But we will live in Him if we believe the truth about Him!...

Justification is a legal act of God. One of the most precious ways the Bible describe salvation is by the word justification. It is God that justifies. Justification is by grace alone!

Salvation is the general term that the Bible uses to describe the miracle of Grace God performs for us. It is the greatest event in our life. It has three main aspects or stages: past, present and future. We were saved at a point in the past. This is when we were born again, believe, repented of sin, and were justified. It is perfect and complete. Christ's blood keeps us safe from the wrath of God...
