Welcome To Grace And Truth Ministries
 

This website is hosted and monitored by a staff of non-denominational Believers, who are dedicated to presenting a truth-filled and balanced understanding of the Christian life. The articles and audiotapes contained in this Christian Library have been collected from enlightened pastors and Christians from all parts of the world, who understand God's true plan of salvation.

One of the greatest dimensions missing in today's Christian community is properly understanding the harmony and balance of God's Word. There are over two thousand different denominations, sects and schisms in the Christian community today. All of these religious bodies teach a different interpretation of the Bible and each professes to embrace the truth. Is it possible for there to be more than one version of the truth? Not according to the words of Jesus as recorded in John 17:17, "Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth." It is evident that there is only one source and one message of truth, and they are enshrined in God's Holy Scriptures.

The Bible teaches us that, "...ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:32). If it is truth that makes us free, then it is error, which keeps us in bondage. The error that has divided Modern Christianity into so many different groups is their failure to understand how our salvation in Christ, our obedience to the Lord, and observance of Biblically ordained days of worship, work in harmony to produce a balanced Christian life.

 
One group of Believers may teach that God's grace has abolished His laws of love, as outlined in the Ten Commandments, another may proclaim that we can only gain salvation and righteousness by keeping the Laws of God, and most of mainstream Christianity has accepted the belief that mankind can create his own days of worship, outside of the instructions of the Bible.
However, the simple and balanced truth is that grace, obedience and God ordained assemblies of worship comprise the foundation of true Christianity. They each have a specific role to perform in the Christian's life and do not stray from the purpose for which they were created.

Grace shows us the love that God has for humanity. The most costly thing God ever did, was to love mankind. It cost Him the life of His precious Son, Jesus Christ. It is a gift from God and cannot be purchased by human works of righteousness. It does not give us a license to sin; rather grace should make us want to give ourselves totally to our God who loves us so deeply. We are saved through the blood, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ - alone. The Lord finished our salvation. Nothing can be added to, or taken away from His perfect sacrifice. Jesus is our only hope.

God's laws of love enable us to understand the mind of our Heavenly Father and teach us how to love Him and our fellowman. Our faith in God's grace is proven by our obedience to His laws of love, as revealed in the Ten Commandments. Our obedience proves that we have made Jesus the Lord of our lives, as well as Savior. Obedience is not earning one's salvation, but is a fruit of grace and shows appreciation for God's love and mercy.

The annual festivals of God celebrate the works of Jesus Christ. They are a tribute to the love, sufferings and sacrifices that our Lord and God have made for humanity. They show us God's plan for saving the human race. These festivals were created in the mind and heart of God as a memorial to the redemptive works of Jesus. God has blessed them, and they are the only ordained assemblies of worship revealed within the scriptures

 
These foundational truths are an indispensable part of a balanced Christian life in Jesus Christ. The confusion over this subject makes it essential that we comprehend how God's moral code of conduct and His chosen days of worship work together, and in complete harmony with grace. This will enable us to better understand our New Testament relationship with God through His Son, Jesus Christ.

Our objective is to distribute only Biblically based information, centered upon the Word of God and without the interference of man-made doctrines. We pray that the literature offered on this website will help you find the truth, harmony and balance, that Jesus died to give all humanity.

In Christ's Name,
The staff at Grace and Truth Ministries website.
