Was Mary Always A Virgin? | Christian Bible Study
https://linktr.ee/thechristianking
Have you ever wondered why Christians have different practices and beliefs? This video delves into the fascinating world of Catholic doctrines, exploring how the Catholic Church navigates its faith alongside the Bible.
While all Christians revere Jesus Christ, the Catholic Church, with its rich history and traditions, holds unique perspectives on certain matters. We'll unpack some key areas where these interpretations diverge from a strictly biblical viewpoint.
**The Bible and Beyond: **We'll explore the concept of Sacred Tradition - the teachings and practices passed down through the Church since its inception. Catholics believe the Holy Spirit guides the Church in interpreting Scripture alongside this tradition.
Faith and Works: Salvation Unpacked: Is it faith alone or faith combined with good works? We'll delve into the Catholic view of justification, where God's grace works through human cooperation in achieving salvation.
Seven Sacred Acts: The Power of Sacraments: Catholicism recognizes seven sacraments – rituals believed to bestow God's grace. We'll explore their significance and how they differ from a purely symbolic interpretation found in some biblical readings.
Veneration of Mary: Honoring the Mother of God: Catholics hold a special place for Mary, Mother of Jesus. We'll explore this tradition and how it aligns with the Catholic understanding of her role.
Priesthood and the Laity: Serving the Flock: The Catholic Church maintains a distinction between ordained clergy and the laity. We'll examine this structure and how it facilitates ministry within the Church.

Are Christians required to follow the Law of Moses? - The Law Brings Death
The Law of Moses reveals the nature of sin and its consequences, specifically death. While the Law itself is good, it exposes humanity's inability to achieve righteousness on their own and highlights the need for a Savior. Sin manipulates the commandments, leading to spiritual death rather than life. This occurs not because the Law is flawed, but to clearly illustrate the true nature of sin.
In contrast, the new covenant through Jesus Christ offers grace and eternal life, overcoming the death that the Law reveals. The old covenant, associated with the letter of the Law, is described as one that brings death, while the new covenant emphasizes life through the Spirit. The Law serves as a guide for the Israelites, reminding them of their covenant with God and the expectations of their relationship with Him. It is a witness against them, reinforcing the seriousness of their commitment to live according to His commands. Overall, the Law points to the need for divine grace rather than reliance on human effort.

What is the Pillar and Ground of the Truth? - 1 Timothy 3:15
In this video, we look deeply into the message of 1 Timothy 3:15 where Paul calls the church “the pillar and ground of the truth.” What does he really mean by this expression and how is it misunderstood?
To support their position that Catholic Church is infallible in teaching spiritual truths since it has an inerrant magisterium backed by an infallible Pope, a lot of Catholic apologists quote from this verse. According to them, this verse confirms the idea that the church is the ultimate authority on spiritual matters since it questions sola scriptura doctrine. But do these claims hold water considering what context we find ourselves with regard to this passage?
We’ll look at:
Authority of Bible: In his letters to Timothy, Paul focuses on his teachings as being above any possible interpretations from other leaders of churches hence emphasizing the Bible as our only infallible source for both faith and practice.
Truth Keepers: The steward is how Paul refers himself and others as apostles who are not themselves sources of truth but rather Jesus Christ is our true foundation.
Context and Interpretation Errors: Certain Catholic dogmas such as priestly celibacy are undermined by one’s ability to serve on church leadership positions as per Paul who says among other things including being married. Similarly, such encyclicals like those condemning marriage run counter to what Paul teaches against in his epistle.
Role of Church: The Greek terms used in 1 Timothy 3:15 show that instead of originating the gospel, it upholds it by serving as its mainstay (pillar) and foundation (ground).

What Was The Purpose of The Law - The Law Reveals Sin
Article: https://thechristianking.com/the-law-reveals-sin
The Hidden Purpose of God’s Law: Revealing Sin and Our Need for Christ.
Here, we go deeply into the biblical understanding of God's law and its profound purpose. The video looks at how the law was not only a set of rules but also a divine mirror that showed us sinful nature and why we needed a Savior so much.
We will trace texts from Romans, 1 John, James, and 1 Corinthians to see that:
The law defines sin and makes us aware of our transgressions.
No one can achieve righteousness through the law only
Sin receives strength from the presence of law itself
But Jesus is our perfect righteousness, whom the law points to in fullness
Understanding why God’s true laws are as essential as His grace to save people by believing in Jesus cannot be underestimated. Whether you are a seasoned Christian or just want to know more about Christianity its theology this is an enlightening video on Law vs Redemption.
#TheLaw #Sin #Grace #Salvation #JesusChrist #BibleStudy #Christianity #Scripture #God #Faith #Religion #SpiritualGrowth #ChristianLife #Bible #Gospel #Hope #Forgiveness #Mercy #Truth #Knowledge #Understanding #Romans #1John #James #Corinthians #Bibleverse #WordofGod #Christian #Believer #Disciple #HolySpirit #Salvation #Redemption #Repentance
The law reveals sin, highlighting our inability to achieve righteousness and underscoring the need for a savior, Jesus Christ.
Highlights
- The law defines sin, making us aware of our sinful nature.
- Righteousness through the law is impossible; we need Jesus.
- Romans 3:20 states the law provides knowledge of sin.
- The law reveals our transgressions and guilt before God.
- Grace abounds where sin increases, as noted in Romans 5:20.
- The law gives power to sin; without it, there’s no accountability.
- No one can follow the law perfectly, leading to God’s wrath on disobedience.
Key Insights
- Defining Sin: The law serves as a moral compass, delineating what constitutes sin, thus revealing human shortcomings. Without it, sin remains ambiguous.
- Need for a Savior: The law’s inability to justify us emphasizes our need for Jesus Christ, who offers grace and redemption.
- Knowledge of Sin: Romans 3:20 illustrates that awareness of sin comes through the law, which acts as a mirror reflecting our flaws.
- Transgressions Revealed: The law exposes our failings, making us conscious of our guilt before God, which is critical for spiritual growth.
- Grace Abounds: The juxtaposition of sin and grace in Romans 5:20 highlights that God’s grace surpasses our failures, offering hope and salvation.
- Power of Sin: The law amplifies the reality of sin, giving it power and making us accountable for our actions.
- God’s Wrath: The law leads to God’s wrath against disobedience, but its absence means no transgression can be accounted for, emphasizing the importance of moral standards.

Protection from Enemies Prayer | Spiritual Warfare Prayers
Heavenly Father, I come before you seeking your divine guidance and protection. There are those in this world who wish me harm, enemies who speak ill of me, undermine me, or actively work against my interests and well-being.
I ask that you reveal to me who these negative influences are, so I might identify them clearly. Grant me the wisdom to recognize toxic relationships or associations that are unhealthy for me.
Lord, you know the intent of every heart. I pray that you will expose the malicious plans of my enemies and shield me from their ill intentions. Deliver me from their deceitful tactics. Frustrate the ways of the wicked and disrupt any evil schemes against me. Protect me from those who seek to cause me spiritual, emotional, or physical harm.
Replace feelings of animosity in my heart with love and compassion. Give me spiritual eyes to see past surface behaviors to the deeper hurts that turn some into adversaries. Help me respond to difficult people with grace and discernment rather than matching negativity.
Above all, I trust in your sovereignty and your ability to advocate for me. You are my rock, my refuge, and the lifter of my head. Under your wings, I find shelter and safety from storms of malice. Thank you for your guardian care. In the blessed name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.

Is Mary Full Of Grace? | Exposing The Virgin Mary
Is the Virgin Mary ‘full of grace’? This video examines biblical evidence that suggests otherwise. Let’s see what the Greek original text of Luke 1:28 says and how it differs from subsequent Latin translations.
Key points:
Greek term ‘kecharitomene’ and its closest English equivalents ‘favoured’ or ‘blessed’
How the Latin Vulgate introduced the phrase “gratia plena” (full of grace)
Biblical instances where other believers are described as ‘favoured’ and ‘blessed’
What does it mean to call Mary uniquely ‘full of grace’, as distinct from being blessed among many?
We will consider other similar passages in the Bible that refer to faithful individuals, which challenge this proposition that this description marks Mary as sinless or specially graced. This video attempts to provide a scriptural examination of this issue. If you’re into doctrine or theology, then this video should get your mind racing over one of Christianity’s often-debated topics.

Do we still need to follow the 10 Commandments? | The Christian King
Visit my Linktree at https://linktr.ee/thechristianking
Are Christians Under the 10 Commandments or the Law of Moses Today?
For centuries, the question of whether Christians are under the 10 Commandments or the Law of Moses today has been a significant theological issue debated and discussed by scholars, pastors and believers. It is important to look at biblical context, teachings from Jesus and apostles to understand this.
These 10 commandments found in Exodus 20:1-17 as well as Deuteronomy 5:4-21 are moral principles given by God to Israelite people on Mount Sinai. They encapsulate God’s ethical standards and form an integral part of ethics in Judeo-Christian faith.
The Law of Moses also known as Mosaic Law or Torah contains not only the 10 Commandments but also many religious, civil, and ceremonial laws found in the first five books of the Bible (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy). This law governed even what they eat about worship and society among other things.
Coming of Jesus Christ was a significant turning point in understanding the Law. In Matthew 5:17 Jesus says “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.” The fulfillment here implies that Jesus had accomplished what he had set out to do with regard to fulfilling God’s design for mankind through his life.
In addition, apostles brought more clarity about how Christians relate with the law. The Council of Jerusalem (Acts15) was convened specifically because this matter arose regarding whether Gentile converts ought to follow Mosaic Law. Paul clarifies that Gentiles were therefore required to abstain from those observances which were particularly offensive to Jewish members in the faith, but not from the whole Law.
Paul's letters also shed some light on this. In Galatians 3:24-25 Paul writes, "Therefore the Law was our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor." He said that it was through Jesus Christ and not by keeping of the law man would be saved.
“But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code” (Romans 7:6). This means that Christians are called upon to live according to guidance from Holy Spirit and not the Mosaic Law.
The New Testament talks about a New Covenant which was established through death and resurrection of Jesus. Jeremiah 31:31-34 foretells this New Covenant where God will write his law on people’s hearts. Hebrews 8:6-13 affirms Jesus as mediator of this better covenant.
In addition, believers under New Covenant are indwelt by Holy Spirit who enables them live in accordance with God’s will. The moral principles of the 10 Commandments are followed but they do not form legal obligations, since their compliance is natural result for righteous heart transformation in Christianity.
It is a fact that Christians are not under the 10 Commandments or Law of Moses in a legalistic sense. The Law and the commandments was a covenant specifically between God and the decendents of Jacob. Christians today are under the new testament, where God’s law is written upon their hearts by the Holy Spirit. This does not mean the moral teachings of the Old Testament are irrelevant; rather, they are filled and surpassed in Christ who strengthens believers to live righteously.

Can Christians Pray To Saints? Refuting Intercession of The Saints
#bible #gospel #christian
https://linktr.ee/thechristianking
In this video, we look into the myth that people can pray to other people; this is often exemplified by Pharaoh’s ‘prayers’ to Moses. We will go into the original text and cross-reference words used for human-to-human requests versus prayer to God. What are the linguistic details that uncover their real meanings and why do they mean something different? Join us as we shed light on this important distinction in sacred texts and deepen our comprehension of prayer.
Pharaoh Praying (Asking)
Exodus 10:16-17 – Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you. Now therefore forgive, I pray thee (nâ'), my sin only this once, and intreat (‛âthar) the LORD your God, that he may take away from me this death only.
PRAY
nâ' (naw)
A primitive particle of incitement and entreaty, which may usually be rendered I pray, now or then; added mostly to verbs (in the imperative or future), or to interjections, occasionally to an adverb or conjugation: - I beseech (pray) thee (you), go to, now, oh.
BESEECH
1: to beg for urgently or anxiously
2: to request earnestly : IMPLORE
“Beseech.” Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary, Merriam-Webster, https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/beseech.
PRAY / INTREAT
‛âthar (aw-thar')
A primitive root (rather denominative from H6281); to burn incense in worship, that is, intercede (reciprocally listen to prayer): - intreat, (make) pray (-er).
Job 33:26 – He shall pray (‛âthar) unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.
Exodus 8:8 – Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Intreat (‛âthar) the LORD, that he may take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may do sacrifice unto the LORD.
Exodus 8:28 – And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: intreat (‛âthar) for me.
Psalms 55:16-17 – As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me. Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray (śı̂yach), and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
PRAY
śı̂yach (see'-akh)
A primitive root; to ponder, that is, (by implication) converse (with oneself, and hence aloud) or (transitively) utter: - commune, complain, declare, meditate, muse, pray, speak, talk (with).
Psalms 5:2 – Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray (pâlal).
PRAY
pâlal (paw-lal')
A primitive root; to judge (officially or mentally); by extension to intercede, pray: - intreat, judge (-ment), (make) pray (-er, -ing), make supplication.
Pharaoh did not pray to Moses. Pharaoh did request Moses to intercede with God on his behalf, but this is different from praying to Moses.
BEREAN STUDY BIBLE
Exodus 10:17 – Now please forgive my sin once more and appeal to the LORD your God, that He may remove this death from me.
EASY-TO-READ VERSION
Exodus 10:17 – Now, forgive me for my sins this time. Ask the LORD to remove this 'death' from me.
ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION
Exodus 10:17 – Now therefore, forgive my sin, please, only this once, and plead with the LORD your God only to remove this death from me.
NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE
Exodus 10:17 – Now therefore, please forgive my sin only this once, and make supplication to the LORD your God, that He would only remove this death from me.

These 10 commandments found in Exodus 20:1-17 as well as Deuteronomy 5:4-21 are moral principles given by God to Israelite people on Mount Sinai. They encapsulate God’s ethical standards and form an integral part of ethics in Judeo-Christian faith.
The Law of Moses also known as Mosaic Law or Torah contains not only the 10 Commandments but also many religious, civil, and ceremonial laws found in the first five books of the Bible (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy). This law governed even what they eat about worship and society among other things.
Coming of Jesus Christ was a significant turning point in understanding the Law. In Matthew 5:17 Jesus says “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.” The fulfillment here implies that Jesus had accomplished what he had set out to do with regard to fulfilling God’s design for mankind through his life.
In addition, apostles brought more clarity about how Christians relate with the law. The Council of Jerusalem (Acts15) was convened specifically because this matter arose regarding whether Gentile converts ought to follow Mosaic Law. Paul clarifies that Gentiles were therefore required to abstain from those observances which were particularly offensive to Jewish members in the faith, but not from the whole Law.
Paul's letters also shed some light on this. In Galatians 3:24-25 Paul writes, "Therefore the Law was our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor." He said that it was through Jesus Christ and not by keeping of the law man would be saved.
“But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code” (Romans 7:6). This means that Christians are called upon to live according to guidance from Holy Spirit and not the Mosaic Law.
The New Testament talks about a New Covenant which was established through death and resurrection of Jesus. Jeremiah 31:31-34 foretells this New Covenant where God will write his law on people’s hearts. Hebrews 8:6-13 affirms Jesus as mediator of this better covenant.
In addition, believers under New Covenant are indwelt by Holy Spirit who enables them live in accordance with God’s will. The moral principles of the 10 Commandments are followed but they do not form legal obligations, since their compliance is natural result for righteous heart transformation in Christianity.
It is a fact that Christians are not under the 10 Commandments or Law of Moses in a legalistic sense. The Law and the commandments was a covenant specifically between God and the decendents of Jacob. Christians today are under the new testament, where God’s law is written upon their hearts by the Holy Spirit. This does not mean the moral teachings of the Old Testament are irrelevant; rather, they are filled and surpassed in Christ who strengthens believers to live righteously.

Sam Shamoun Manifests | Intercession of the saints
@shamounian manifest on a live stream with @SIIIG1 talking about the false doctrine of intercession of the saints, or praying to the dead. I refute the weak argument that Sam Shamoun presents.
