What About 1 John 1:9

Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P1172 (10-09-26)

Un-Scrambling 1 John 1:9: Stop Begging for What Was Finished at Calvary

~ In corporate religious institutions, 1 John 1:9 is routinely weaponized as the ultimate transactional tool. Churchgoers are taught that salvation and fellowship with God operate like a relational “vending machine” or a “Christian bar of soap”: you stumble, insert an apology coin, beg for forgiveness, and trigger a fresh dispensation of grace to clear your account.

This completely distorts the courtroom reality of the Gospel!

When you examine 1 John 1:9 through its original Koine Greek grammar and historical context, it does not command post-cross believers to beg for daily clearance. Instead, it reveals an un-scrambled, courtroom declaration of a completed historical reality settled at the cross of Calvary where the debt was cleared!

1. The Epistolary Context: Addressing the Gnostic Heresy at Ephesus

You cannot rightly divide 1 John 1:9 without understanding the specific theological battlefield Apostle John was addressing. 1 John was written in response to an inquiry from a pastor in Ephesus regarding the rising heresy of Gnosticism.

Gnostics operated under a dualistic worldview, claiming that all physical flesh is inherently evil and only spirit is good.… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

Jesus Selects Saul ~ Paul

~ Acts: 9:1-19
Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the disciples of the Lord. He approached the high priest and requested letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any men or women belonging to the Way, he could bring them as prisoners to Jerusalem.

As Saul drew near to Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?”

“Who are You, Lord?” Saul asked.

“I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” He replied. “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”

The men traveling with Saul stood there speechless. They heard the voice but did not see anyone. Saul got up from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could not see a thing. So they led him by the hand into Damascus. For three days he was without sight, and he did not eat or drink anything.

Paul Preaching The Gospel

Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P1155 (08-13-26)

Preach The Gospel is Key For Each of Us

~ “For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with words of wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power. 1 Corinthians:1:17

The Apostle Paul made it abundantly clear what the most critical, non-negotiable job is for each and every one of us to do: we are commanded to preach the Gospel—in season and out of season. We are not called to sit passively in pews, sedated by the horizontal distractions of the out lands, or spoon-fed by seminary-credentialed gatekeepers who treat grace like a business. We are called to stand on the proper, unyielding foundation and shout the un-scrambled Truth of Calvary directly to a dying world.

And what is the true, un-scrambled Gospel? It is the absolute reality that Jesus, God in the literal flesh (basar), entered our physical jurisdiction under the dome to operate as our Goel—our near-kinsman. He was born of Man to legally qualify under divine property law, lived a perfect, flawless life, and came to take away the total sin debt for everyone at the cross of Calvary.… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

He First Loved Us

Classic Christianity – God’s Absolute Love – 7-06-26

~ “There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love.” 1 John 4:18

~ It’s only when we understand the perfect Love of God for us, that we can stop being in fear of everything, including that of fear of punishment from God. Because once we understand that when we are in Christ Jesus, and He is in us, He did not put a spirit of fear in us, but He placed His Spirit of Love in our hearts. And as He renews our minds with Truth, this gets rid of the fear we have in us and it is His love that gives us the ability for His Love to flow through us, because Love lives in us. Everything is related to understanding the perfect Love of God. And remember, it’s not that we love Him, but that He first Loves us!

Understanding the Fullness of the True Gospel

~ There are many many people today who do not understand the true Gospel. They have been taught satan’s lies about the forgiveness of God. They do not understand that the sin debt was paid in full at the cross. They think more forgiveness is needed. And it is sad, because most who believe this, are not saved to begin with. Why is important that we understand this Truth? Because without understanding this key part of the Gospel, everything else will be off in our understanding of Law and Grace, Death and Life, Flesh and Spirit, Presumation and Faith, Atonement and Propitiation, and a host of other key differences between the Old Testament and the New Testament. When we understand the Truth of the Scriptures in regards to forgiveness having been fulfilled in the Person of Jesus, God in flesh, to have taken (past tense) the sins of the whole world, then we can live in the freedom of Christ, knowing that He lives in us and through us when we are in Christ Jesus, and nothing can separate us from Him, not even our ungodly fleshly actions.… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

Jesus Said Father Forgive Them

Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P1129 (05-14-26)

Jesus said, “Father Forgiven Them For They Know Not What They Do”

~ Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up His garments by casting lots. Luke 23:34. Jesus prayed that prayer from the cross, and that prayer was indeed answered by God Himself because of the cross itself, and the perfect sacrafice for the sins of the whole world. Because God is not counting anyone’s sins against them today. That can be a difficult lesson to learn for most folks, because they have been taught that someone has to ask for forgiveness in order for God to forgive them. But that is the greatest lie of deception within Christianity today. And because of that, most people do NOT forgive others based on how God forgave us (past tense) at the cross. They instead wait for someone to ask for it when they have been wronged themselves by others.

And this is where the rubber meets the road. If we do not understand God’s total forgiveness for us, we will treat others as we think God treats us. So this is super important for us to understand and teach others the total forgiveness of Jesus at the cross.… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message
