Unpacking Grace
Южно-Африканская Республика
Добавлен 26 фев 2021
Jesus stressed the importance of counting the cost before making the decision to follow Him. Counting the cost requires great consideration - and naturally, with that, questions are birthed. Unfortunately, voiced questions are often met with vague, shrugged answers. Have you felt that ‘taboo’ questions are sometimes answered with gasps and shut doors? Hypocrisy and misconceptions are problems that the Church often fails to address. Unpacking Grace has aimed to provide the opportunity for people to freely consider Christianity without feeling the pressure to convert. It is an online-based organization primarily aimed at teenagers and young adults that provides clarity from an open-minded approach. You can contemplate Christianity at your own pace, time and mindset. You will either find Christ and embark on your journey with Him, or you’ll leave feeling satisfied knowing that at least you have a more rounded knowledge of Christianity. Either way, you benefit.
SHEPHERD'S TESTIMONY
Each testimony sprouts in unique beauty in the garden of stories proclaiming the truth of Christ. All testimonies point to Jesus, but because they are also highly personal, testimonies can also strike a chord with someone who has walked through a similar experience. Shepherd grew up in the church but was only later overcome by the poignant realization of what gave his life to Christ really entailed and required of him, upon which he began to follow Christ.

EP2 CHRISTIANITY: THE JUDGMENTAL RELIGION PART 2 | The biggest misconception about judgement.
Просмотров 312 года назад
Christianity is often branded as a ‘judgemental’ religion. The common perception of Christians is that their heads are held up in self-righteousness, their faces distorted in disdain, and their mouths downturned in contempt as they encounter unbelievers. Unfortunately, this has been the reality for some, but is this the posture Jesus has commanded His followers to assume? If you have felt that ...

EP1 “Not The Bible” Introduction | We as Christians are sorry!
Просмотров 1072 года назад
We live in a time when Biblical literacy is at a low, and so labels have been plastered on the Bible due to misrepresentations and misunderstandings. Christianity therefore often elicits passionate responses. These statements won’t sound foreign to your ears: ‘Christianity is judgemental religion’, ‘Christianity is a hypocritical religion’, ‘Christianity is a money-making scheme’, or ‘Christian...

EP4 - What does the word ‘Accept’ mean? What does it mean to ‘accept Jesus’? This phrase has been plastered on countless flyers and has bounded off of the eager tongues of evangelists, and yet it if is not followed by an explanation of what true acceptance really is, its impact is dulled. This next UG video endeavours to shed light on the true nature of accepting Jesus Christ. Christians believ...

Repentance - how often that sparks misunderstanding and leaves bitterness in people’s mouths. The knee-jerk reaction to the call to repentance is often denial or annoyance at what is perceived as a direct attack, but what does repentance mean to Christians? Is it a one-time act reserved for unbelievers, or do Christians also undergo daily repentance? According to the Bible, repentance means a c...

A clear understanding of the term sinner is imperative to grasping the Christian message. As part of the Christianese series, we’ll be exploring the meaning of the word sinner and the implications it has for us. Without these foundational building blocks, the full impact of the gospel goes over our heads. Here’s the bad news: we are all inherently sinful. We are twisted, and every moment of our...

This is Christi's Story
Просмотров 663 года назад
THIS IS CHRISTI'S STORY. Christianity stands with a singular prominence and truth when seen in comparison to all other religions. Despite the attempts to see it as just ‘another religion’, it does not mix well in the crockpot of all world religions, but rather stands apart by proclaiming a message of God donning human flesh in order to defeat sin and death and restore relationships. In this tes...

EP5 - "FAITH IS BLIND" The Word was made manifest in Jesus Christ, and the disciples’ account thereof is a testament to the validity of the gospel. The apostle John stresses that the disciples weren’t following a thin string of rumors. They weren’t spinning fairytales about an idea that they had of Jesus, but rather they were testifying to the authentic experiences they had while following Him ...

EP2 - JORDAN'S TESTIMONY In this moving testimony, Jordan, a 20-year-old studying Intermediate Phase Teaching in Varsity College Sandton, shares her tumultuous path from where she was to where she is now as a newborn Christian.

EP 4 - "Surely all Religions Lead To Heaven"

EP4 - All Religions Lead To Heaven A common ideology nowadays is that ‘All religions lead to heaven’. There is a claim that all religions are paths that lead up a mountain and that they ultimately converge at the top. Hiking up this mountain are countless people of different beliefs. As tempting as this view is, it poses a few problems. It’s contradictory and untrue. For a religion such as Chri...

Very good.
Thanks so much, Christopher!
Awesome Thornton. One of my main questions has i think always been how to recognize the wolf in the sheeps clothing. Doing so can be quite tricky. However i have learned over the past few months that what us as Christians preach and talk about needs to be able to be validated with scripture. That is the most important thing for me.
I love this comment so much! I would like to add to your point by saying that I do believe we walk with the Holy Spirit as well and I think we will also have a level of discernment to understand who is a wolf and who is a sheep. Put spiritual discernment and biblical validation together and you have a pretty good criteria lol.
👌🔥nice
Thanks 🔥

Awesome work JD, you sooo correct 🙏🏽, Jesus came to live the life we should have lived snd died the death we should have died, so that our debt doesn’t have to be paid twice If the consequence of sin is death then someone had to die, our God died for us, that’s love not condemnation ✝️🙏🏽😊
