We don’t need threats and treats. Our service springs up freely in grace

Leave a Comment / Christ vs Law for Sanctification, Defending/Contending, Freedom from Legalism / By DavidBenjamininChrist

Pastors are getting angry because such a small percentage of their congregation “serves” (works to keep the system running). This partly is because the system they operate limits the function of members by design.. But more importantly, it’s because they only have the threats of punishment and promises of reward as an incentive to “Serve.” […]

Galatians Msg 1

Leave a Comment / Uncategorized / By DavidBenjamininChrist

Msg 1 Obeying Truth Rather than Following Men Gal 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) Here Paul is already distinguishing himself from the people that are influencing the churches in Galatia. The people that are influencing them are much about perception and man’s authority and man’s stamp of approval. “He’s associated with James therefore I should

Chapter 2 New Testament Spirituality

Leave a Comment / OC vs NT Distinctions / By DavidBenjamininChrist

It is really complex, but again, this just has to be distinguished from Israel’s New Covenant. That is a covenant made with them. God didn’t make a covenant with us. There are no terms.

Msg 3 – Ephesians 3 – Paul’s Overview of his Ministry and Where we Get the language

Leave a Comment / Gods Economy and Eternal Purpose / By DavidBenjamininChrist

I want to talk about God’s economy – where it’s discussed in scripture. Much of the language I speak comes from Ephesians 3 where Paul gives an autobiographical introduction to his ministry and his calling. When I did my Ephesians study last year, I began in Ephesians 3. In a way, Chapter 3 is really
