Pray - in truth

Image
From Reuben A. Torrey's book: "How to pray" From the Chapter: Praying and Obeying Psalm 145:18 throws a great deal of light on the question of how to pray. The Lord is near unto all those that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth. That little expression "in truth" is worthy of study. If you will take your concordance and go through the Bible, you will find that this expression means “in reality” or “in sincerity.” The prayer that God answers is the prayer that is real — the prayer that asks for something that is sincerely desired.

Jesus' Judgement Seats - 2

Part II Misinterpretation of the two judgments Two Events — One Misreading — Two Thousand Years of Confusion These chapters examine why two distinct divine judgments have so often been collapsed into one — with grave doctrinal consequences — and how the original Greek word bema , carved in stone on an Athenian hillside, unlocks Paul's precise and deliberate meaning. I The Core Confusion: Two Distinct Events Collapsed Into One The mixing of the Bema Seat (for believers) and the Great White Throne / Sheep & Goats judgment (for all nations / unbelievers) is not a minor hermeneutical slip. It has profound doctrinal consequences . When these two events are blended together, the result is almost always a corruption of the gospel itself. What Gets Lost The finished work of Christ is subtly undermined — salvation begins to feel conditional on performance. Assurance of salvation is stol...
