I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and
understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will.

DID JESUS OFFER HIS LIFE AS A
SACRIFICE OR RANSOM?


JESUS DID INDEED OFFER HIS LIFE!
BUT DO YOU KNOW WHY?


We present this month a series of past short papers that together collectively witness to Jesus being a RANSOM, and not a SACRIFICEthat together collectively witness to Jesus being a RANSOM, and not a SACRIFICEthat together collectively witness to Jesus being a RANSOM, and not a SACRIFICEthat together collectively witness to Jesus being a RANSOM, and not a SACRIFICE.  We bring to your focus the misunderstanding of Jesus' Words amongst the many, along with the false doctrines claiming him to be a sacrifice for one's sins, and expose them in the Light of His Words.  

Was Jesus a sacrifice for your sins? Was Jesus the sacrificial Lamb of God that was to be slain? Was he our Atoning sacrifice? Must God punish sin? Or does God forgive sins? These are but many of the questions that will be examined in the Light of His Word.

From our MISUNDERSTANDING JESUS series:


From our FALSE DOCTRINE series:

The Doctrine of Atonement

God Must Necessarily Punish Sin

      The Death of Jesus an Atoning Sacrifice

HERE'S A PEAK INTO OUR NEXT MONTH ISSUE ON THE VOJ:  

Going further with the topic of Sacrifice & Ransom, we will examine the institution of the Eucharist. Did Jesus institute the memorial "sacrifice" of the Eucharist? What did Jesus mean by eating his flesh and drinking his blood? Is the eating of his flesh and drinking of his blood proof that Jesus was a Sacrifice? Or was he referring to something greater than the flesh? 

We will also revisit the topic of the Primacy of Peter.  Was he alone given the keys to the Kingdom?  Are those who claim succession from Peter the true authority on God's Word?


PEACE TO YOU AND TO YOUR HOUSE
