WHAT NO CONDEMNATION FOR THOSE IN CHRIST REALLY MEANS FOR US- ROM.8:1

By Edward O’Hara, If we are still supposed to keep the law even after we have been saved. And if we do not God punishes us for it. Then how could Paul say this? This is a contradiction if we are all still supposed to keep the law. Where does condemnation come from? Where does guilt come from? Why was it that Adam and Eve were only afraid after they disobeyed God? Why didn’t they feel condemned or ashamed? Oh, you thought they did feel shame after eating the fruit? You thought that this is why they hid from God? Well read the passage for yourself and you will find out that fear was what caused them to hide from God. Not shame or guilt. Paul taught that guilt and condemnation comes from the law of sin and death. The…

Jesus said WHAT ?

Dinesh Kaushiva June 30, 2023 Before we get started to find out about ‘Jesus said WHAT ?’. Please allow me to take you with me through a Biblical point of view PORTAL to few thousands of years back to the World for a quick peak when they had  No Electricity, No Printing Presses, No News Papers, No Internet, No WiFi, No Phones, No Cell Phones, No Television etc., etc. Are you there yet ? Great ! So first thing we noticed here is how actually the people were communicating . Mostly only verbally with each other. Very limited written materials. Also, not all but certain individuals were open to the Jewish teachings that had reverence towards hearing God’s voice because they had evidence that God would speak to people directly or through the Holy Spirit or Angels. They also fully…

As the Great Tribulation Intensifies, Don’t Be Deceived. Your Only Hope Is Jesus!

You’re not here by accident. God loves you. He wants you to have a personal relationship with Him through Jesus, His Son. There is just one thing that separates you from God. That one thing is sin. The Bible describes sin in many ways. Most simply, sin is our failure to measure up to God’s holiness and His righteous standards. We sin by things we do, choices we make, attitudes we show, and thoughts we entertain. We also sin when we fail to do right things. The Bible affirms our own experience – “there is none righteous, not even one.” No matter how good we try to be, none of us does right things all the time. People tend to divide themselves into groups – good people and bad people. But God says that every person who has ever lived…

3 KINDS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

Edward O’Hara Fri 1/31/2020 9:58 AM Have you ever heard someone say that “If men could keep the law perfectly they would not need Jesus”? Because then they would have no sin? Is that statement really true? I mean, does this statement line up with what the Bible says? The answer is a resounding NO!! It does not agree with the Biblical narrative. But, is instead an example of the hypocritical righteousness of the Pharisees. And here’s just a few examples showing what a completely unBiblical conclusion a statement like that is.  The question, Is the righteousness that is reckoned to us that we are considered to be when we believe in Jesus’ righteousness that is of the law? Does the Bible teach that the righteousness that we receive by faith is the righteousness that Jesus gained from His having…

A MARRIAGE MIRACLE THAT MANIFESTED GOD’S GLORY!

Edward O’Hara Fri 4/24/2020 1:16 PM… If you have not yet heard of or read the story of how Jesus turned the water to wine at a marriage feast in Cana you’re in for a treat. Because in it we find all the things that we need to know about what happens when we are saved. Which is why it is the first of Jesus’ many miracles. Because this is why the Bible says He came in John3:16,17. Because He so loved the world that He came not to condemn us, but to deliver us from the power of death to eternal life.  It has nothing to do with the way it is used by some to justify drinking alcohol. There is no justification for that, nor is it needed. It has only to do with the greatest miracle that ever…

WHY JESUS HAD TO DIE PT.3

Edward O’Hara Thu 4/2/2020 2:35 PM… Please note that in this message there are no reasons given for Jesus’ death that have to do with the payment of a penalty for sin or any of its ramifications as so many who have been so deceived for so long teach. The reason for this is that none of that line of thinking comes from what the Bible says. So if you have had the misfortune of having been taught and have come to believe that death is a penalty for Adam’s sin, then pretty much everything you have believed about God, Jesus, and the atonement is a deception. And this message is specifically for you. Because that false teaching comes out of the false doctrines of the pagan gnostic Augustine who is the “doctor of theology” for the roman religion, and his disciples…

WILL YOU EVER BE FREE FROM THE FEAR OF DEATH?

Edward O’Hara Fri 3/13/2020 6:18 PM… Everyone can see that death reigns, right? I mean, there is no argument from the most ardent atheist to the strongest believer against the fact that death currently reigns over all that we see, right? Because we can all see that everything decays and dies. And that death happens to all things whether animate or inanimate, right? Of course, we can. Even with our natural eyes, we can see that death reigns on this earth. So one does not even need to be born again, or “spiritual” as some think they can be by other means, to see this. And no one wants to die, right? Everyone if they had a choice to either live under death’s power and it affects like suffering, sickness, and sorrow, or have eternal life without any of the…

HOW TO BE FREE FROM THE SLAVERY OF SIN

Edward O’Hara Fri 3/6/2020 3:47 PM… What do you think of when you read Jesus or Paul teaching about a man being a slave to sin? Do you think this means that because Adam’s sin was imputed to you that you are a slave to it? Or does that mean to you that this person who is a slave to sin must be doing something consistently bad that gives it control over him so that he is made a slave to it? If it is either of these then you have missed the point both Jesus and Paul were making when they spoke of the slavery of sin.  In John8 Jesus was speaking to Israelites about believing in Him. He said to those Israelites which believed on him, “If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye…

LAW OR SPIRIT? TEMPORARY OR ETERNAL? TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER

Edward O’Hara Tue 3/3/2020 4:11 PM… Was there an eternal law in existence before the law was given through Moses? I mean, is the notion that some profess about a “moral law” that is eternal a Biblical notion? Can this notion be proved from the scriptures?  There are a lot of people who say they believe the Bible that thinks it can be. They think the law was even in the garden and that it was there from eternity past because to them the law is actually an eternal part of God. They believe the Bible teaches that there has always been the law that men have always been held accountable for keeping. And that when men do not keep it there has always been a penalty for that. Is this an accurate assessment of what the Bible teaches about…

DO WE FOLLOW JESUS’ GOSPEL OR PAUL’S? IS THERE A DIFFERENCE?

Edward O’Hara Fri 2/28/2020 2:51 PM… There seems to be some confusion among some who say they believe the Bible, about what covenant Jesus preached. They seem to think that the message Jesus preached is a message for New Covenant believers. And that to be a New Covenant believer we must follow the teachings of Christ that He taught while He lived as a man on earth.  I wonder sometimes if they must think that Malachi is the end of the Old Covenant and Mathew is the beginning of the New just because their Bible’s are printed with a division there. It’s not you know. There are even some that seem to think that when Jesus said the law and the prophets were until John He meant that He was now going to preach a different message from the one…
