Good Question

"If Jesus Christ was a product of evolution, how is it that no better man has since appeared, after [twenty centuries]?"

W.H. Griffith Thomas

No Alteration in Decrees

When God calls a man, He does not repent of it. God does not, as many friends do, love one day, and hate another; or as princes, who make their subjects favourites, and afterwards throw them into prison. This is the blessedness of a saint; his condition admits of no alteration.

God's call is founded upon His decree, and His decree is immutable. Acts of grace cannot be reversed.

God blots out His people's sins, but not their names.

NCFC - No Condemnation for Christians

There is no condemnation to them who are in Christ Jesus. “In Christ” is the believer’s position before God, not his condition in the flesh. “In Adam” I was condemned ( Romans 5:12); but “in Christ” is to be forever freed from all condemnation. “There is therefore now no condemnation.” The qualifying “now” implies there was a time when Christians, before they believed, were under condemnation. This was before they died with Christ, died judicially ( Galatians 2:20) to the penalty of God’s righteous law. This “now,” then, distinguishes between two states or conditions. By nature we were “under the (sentence of) law,” but now believers are “under grace” ( Romans 6:14). By nature we were “children of wrath” ( Ephesians 2:2), but now we are “accepted in the Beloved” ( Ephesians 1:6).

Under the first covenant we were “in Adam” ( 1 Corinthians 15:22), but now we are “in Christ” 
( Romans 8:1). As believers in Christ we have everlasting life, and because of this we “shall not come into condemnation.”
A.W. Pink

Up to my Helmet in Trouble

Some may have noticed my absence the past few days. I wasn't able to log on to my Google account. I couldn't post or comment on either of my blogs and my navigation bar had disappeared. I did everything I could to correct this problem to no avail. I thought I was a goner. The thought crossed my mind that Nigel Pettibone or Benny Finney may have hacked into my site and messed with my settings. I cleaned out the cookies and the cache. (I don't need the cookies, being a little overweight...but, who doesn't need the cache!) All roads led to dead end after dead end. As a last resort, I switched from Google Chrome to Mozilla Firefox and now things are working properly again. Whew! I don't deserve the mercy but, I am glad to be back on!
