I love The Berean Call, and Dave Hunt. Dave is gone now, having died several years who, but I followed his ministry since his book, “The Seduction of Christianity”.

The Ministry is still going now, even though Dave Hunt is not there. Tom A. McMahon is carrying on with it now.

Here’s an overview of Dave Hunt ...

Catholics want it MORE COMPLEX ... I know ... LOL ...

Salvation is simple, though ...

Romans 10 ...

8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach):

9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”

12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.

13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

Imagine a world where we only followed God’s word and not the two prophets Jesus or Mohammed. The Jews would be God’s people and the men who guide the masses in following the prophets would no longer have Mankind stray from God, period. Giving Man a free pass on accountability for sin for following prophet number one was followed by prophet number 2 encouraging sin as a matter of worship. After living in Israel it seems to me that if we focused on the pre-prophet God of Israel many of the World’s problems would disappear....

Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches teach that the bread and cup are Christ’s literal body and blood offered on their altars and that He is continually suffering for sin.

The underlined portion is a flat-out lie.

Recognition that what Christ suffered for our sins was far beyond any physical suffering should increase our gratitude to Him. The deeper our understanding, the greater will be our appreciation for what Christ suffered in our place. May the Lord awaken in our hearts an overflowing river of praise and gratitude so that we continually express our love to the Father for giving His Son, and to Christ for enduring the punishment that we deserved for our sins.

Amen! Every day I thank God for His grace and love and saving my soul. In church, when I participate with fellow believers in the commemoration of Christ's death, burial and resurrection by taking the broken bread - to signify His broken body - and the cup of grape juice - to signify His shed blood - and contemplate the sacrifice He made so that my sin debt could be PAID IN FULL. I do this in remembrance of Him as he told us to. It brings back to our memory just what He was willing to do to redeem us and make atonement - at-ONE-ment - because of His great love for us.

May we always be in mind of His love and live holy lives out of gratitude for what He has done for us. For it is by grace we are saved through faith and that not of ourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast.

Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. "For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." (Matthew 11:28-30)

I listen to his videos periodically when I’m researching something...he always seems to have a good say on subject matter. He’s worth the listen if one is serious enough to hear the truth...I have yet to see him wander from that.

The amazing ‘grace’ of God is one of the simplest yet hardest to grasp concepts of the Christian faith.

But whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst, but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. Jn. 4:14

Jesus stood and cried out, saying,... If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who ‘believes’ on Me,... as the Scripture has said,... “Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.” Jn. 7:37- 38

‘The underlined portion is a flat-out lie.’

I have a problem with that as well. I have never been taught in school, or heard at Mass that Jesus is being crucified again and again. No practicing Catholic that I know of has said that or even alluded to it.

No Priest, Nun, or Sunday School teacher has ever told me that salvation is by anything other than faith in the finished work of Christ.

Do we confess our sin or Glorify God with our life to build up IOU’s so that St. Peter will open the Golden Gates into Heaven? Not at all. It’s called developing and perpetuating a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.

The fact that there are many difficult concepts to grasp is exactly why Jesus created the Catholic Church. When we stray and try to do it on our own, ignoring the tradition of the Church Fathers, we end up with 30,000 denominations teaching their own interpretation. Christ wanted One Unified Church so that all generations could receive the Truth. This Church can only be the Catholic Church. One. Holy. Catholic. Apostolic.

In truth, Jesus IS THE WAY to the Father.

With Mohammed, you are dealing with a false prophet.

There, fixed it.

Dave Hunt sure hated the idea of election. Is he still alive?

Also remember that the Jewish scriptures spoke of a coming savior so it had to be realized in the coming of Jesus.

Simplistic rot!

So simplistic that the really astute can miss the Truth in it. In Jeremiah, God told us that He would give us a New Covenant where He would forgive our wickedness and recognize our sins no more. Are you calling God simplistic and a rotten liar?
