I greatly appreciate my Substack platform for many reasons, however, it does have some weaknesses, like no automatic or easy index.
Thus, I would like to provide this manual index of my Corrupt Christian Context Series. As I add articles, I will go back and update this post so there is a central location to go back and link to the various articles in the series.
If you have missed any, this will be a good resource for you to bookmark. With no further ado:
CCC #6 - Bonus - John 10:1-16
(All scripture quotes are from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) I said I would provide my interpretation of John 10:1-16 as a bonus since I wrote on it in my first eternal life article but had to remove it due to lack of space. Since I included a bonus between the first and second manifestation, I will go ahead and inclu…
CCC #6 - Eternal Life #3 - The Final Resurrection
(All scripture quotes are from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) This third and final manifestation of eternal life is the least corrupt and most well known, but still important. The most corrupt thing about it is that it often substitutes in our mindset for the eternal life we already have. Yet, in scripture, the future …
CCC #7: 1 Cor 13 - The Love Chapter - Is Not Only About You
(All quoted scripture is from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) As requested by a reader, I am working on a study of 'faith'. As you might imagine, it is a big topic and I want to do it justice. Also, my personal life is in hyper-mode right now, so there simply is not a lot of time. Thus, as I am working on it, some shorter thoug…
CCC #8: Faith - Intro #1
(All scripture quotes are from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) NOTE: Faith is the most extensive topic I have ever written about. Even as I think I have some good stuff, the Holy Spirit brings other ideas before me in various ways. I have written/re-written several times. Faith is a multi-pronged and nuanced concept. H…
CCC #8: Faith - Intro #2 - Difficult Passages
(All scripture quotes are from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) NOTE: this is the second part of my introduction to faith. If you haven't read that article, please take a look at it first. It will now be located at the end of the index on my home page. I believe there will be a third part to this introduction. There are…
CCC #8: Faith - Intro #3 - Hebrews 11 - God's Precious Promises
(All scripture quotes are from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) NOTE: this is the third part of my introduction to faith. If you haven't read the first two articles, please take a look at them at the end of the CCC index on my home page. Without further ado, I will jump into the final introduction article. I'm sure you …
CCC#8: Faith - Part 1 - A Definition
(All scripture quotes are from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) My introductory ‘faith’ articles discussed how faith is the vehicle through which we are gifted the love of God so that we can demonstrate that love for others. I covered how “living faith” is based on that gift, while “dead faith” is based on trying to ke…
CCC#8: Faith - Part 2 - the Goal of the Gospel
(All scripture quotes are from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) My first non-introductory faith article dived into some specific scripture regarding the definition of faith. We learned that a mindset of seeing all of God's promises and gifts as truly good is essential for faith. Keeping the gospel as pure “good news…
CCC #8 Bonus - Peace and Goodwill Towards Men
(All scripture quotes are from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) Merry Christmas My Christmas vacation is the first time in a while I have had any free time; thus, I am finally able to have time to write. Thanks for reading Come to Jesus Christ for Life! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.
Faith Bonus - Love is Enough
(All scripture quotations are from the BSB unless otherwise noted.) My next faith article will begin to discuss the new covenant promises of God which are the focus of our faith. The first promise of the new covenant, one that significantly distinguishes it from the old, is that there are no conditions beyond faith to …
