Are we sure that the modern translation of the Greek of the word "perfect", in Matthew 5:48 --as "complete" is fully correct or even correct at all?
I tithe from my gross. Since I started to tithe, my financial miracles have been varied but evident, what lacks was provided for. But in July and August 05, it's not been easy. I have tithed and given more, but time is running out on me, I haven't been able to pay rent. As I still wait for the Lord, tell me is it strange?
Please explain Grace. What is grace? What does grace do for me?
When Jesus is addressing the seven churches in Revelations, he repeats the statement, "to him that overcomes." In Revelation 3:21 Jesus even says, "... to him that overcomes, even as I also overcame..." My question is; If a person is saved by grace through faith, and the debt is paid in full by the blood of Christ, what is left to overcome? He is calling us to overcome in the same manner as he did, how is that?
