Heavenly minded or no good at all

Posted on December 12, 2012 Written by Mark McIntyre 2 Comments

I have heard it said that a person could be so Heavenly minded that he is of no Earthly good. Perhaps it is only me, but I find that I am in greater danger of becoming so Earthly minded that I am no good at all.

Hope

No-one beyond hope

But Jesus is the wild card that makes everything possible. The point (or at least one point) of this story is that no-one is beyond hope. No-one should be written off as no longer able to be changed. No-one.

Your Story Context

Context, back-story and knowing God

A hip hop lyric illustrates the need for context in relationships. This is as true of our relationship with God as it is in human relationships.

Black and White

Black, White, and Grey

Did God really say that when a vow is taken, it must be fulfilled to the fullest extent of our ability?

Anger and Hate

When we, who identify as Christians. vent our anger and hurt others, we are misrepresenting the one we claim to worship since He commanded us against it. This is a clear violation of the Second of the Ten Commandments.

Question

Question on Hebrews 6

Recently, a friend emailed a question that came up in a small group Bible study regarding Hebrews 6. There was question about whether Hebrews 6 teaches that a person can lose his/her salvation. This post contains my response to the question.
