Are you God's property?

The Bible is clear that a saved man is accountable to God for what he does in this body. A saved man is holy…in body and Spirit because he is ”bought for a price”. The price was what Christ did for you personally when forgiveness was found within your heart and soul. A clean and holy heart was given. Thus you became God’s property because you trusted what Christ did for you personally. By the power of God’s Grace that “saves the human soul” you were given the presence of the Holy Spirit to glorify Him in your body and Spirit. A union was made with God so you could bring honor to your King and never dishonor. You are God’s property and not you own! Prove what is acceptable to Him!


1 Cor. 6:19-20…What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

Audios, Videos, Theology and Sound Bible teachings at this Blog

Have you taken the time to review our biblical library? Or to examine our Blogs posted for your edification. The intent of this Blog is to carry on the right division of God's Word and to help others to understand the Bible's great Truth about Christ. Most of the teaching at the Churches on Trial was originally started by Hubert T. Lindsey a holiness preacher and Bible scholar who had most of the Bible memorized. Brother Lindsey preached the Gospel for 75 years. During his later ministry Brother Lindsey recorded his messages to be carried on outside of his presence. Since Brother Lindsey passed on his messages still live today around the globe via Internet. His timeless Biblical library and Theology are only kept alive today by the Grace of God. We have many audios posted at present and twice that many awaiting publication in the future. Please enjoy and learn from these teachings as they all bring honor and praise to the Christ of our Salvation. God knows the desires of your heart. May the Holy Spirit reveal all that's needed in your heart and life to learn, to hear, and to be taught God's Word....as a foundation for your faith. We love you and appreciate you stopping by from the four corners of the Earth. God Bless you all...in the name of Jesus.

Examine yourselves

2 Corinthians 13:5…Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves,

Knowing where you stand with Christ is a minute by minute obligation to a Savior that bled and died for your personal forgiveness found in Salvation of the human soul. Examination is a check and balance system for all believers to “know” where they stand at every point in their life on this side of Heaven.

The Bible teaches that some have erred or departed from their faith in Christ. Erring or departure is caused from unfaithfulness and disobedience caused from sin. If faith was an eternal blessing given from God, men would not have to examinine themselves to keep their faithfulness and obedience to Christ. The so-called blessing of faith (given from God) would automatically keep man true without need of examination.

Self examination allows the believer in Christ to “prove” his faithfulness to God and to “know” his right-standing with a Savior on a consciousness and obedience basis. To be conscious and aware to the presence of Christ in your life… belief and obedience to Christ is required. Examination allows the believer in Christ to keep himself in a constant state of the clean heart and holy lifestyle in the eyes of God.

What’s wrong with contentment and constant right-standing from faithfulness to Christ? Knowing where one stands in moral righteousness because God made you that way! Is this not a better life! A blessed new life with a clean heart! Freed from the guilt of sin! Ashamed of the old life. Obedient to God with no desire to go back! Staying on the path by the power of God. Keeping constant belief in Christ requires personal examination from time to time! Examination allows one to see what’s needed to stay true in the personal walk with Jesus. A child of God must live, act, and behave like a child of God. Must keep faith in the person of Christ, in the power of Christ, and in the presence of the Christ who is Savior and Redeemer!

Examine yourselves from time to time… to see whether you be in the faith. Keep yourselves right with God. Be blessed!

What is the example of a believer in Christ?

1 Timothy 4:12…but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

The example of the words of a believer (how a believer talks) are not corrupt communication, profanity, or cursing. Sweet water and bitter water don’t flow from the same fountain. Even Jesus said out of abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. A clean heart brings forth clean words and a clean tongue.

The example of the conversation of a believer is “the manner of life” or “lifestyle” of those who accept Christ as personal Lord and Saviour. Lifestyle can also pertain to sonship, parenthood, domestic life, social life, business life, religious life, etc. Believer’s in Christ live right in the eyes of God because the believing heart is made clean and holy by the Grace of God. Therefore, the manner of of living regardless of human status is made clean and holy.

Charity is the spiritual inclination of the believing heart. Charity is the love manifested when a believer in Christ gives from the heart. The example of charity is recognized in the eyes of God and is a witness for Christ to the unbelieving world.

The example of the spirit of the believing heart is an example of one who pays full attention to Christ and things that pertain to the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. The natural man doesn’ t know the things of the Spirit of God or Christ because they are foolishness to him. The Spirit man doesn’t do the things that he did in the old life before Christ. A spirit man “quits” his meanness. This example of the believer ”proves” what is acceptable to God.

The example of faith is the believers faithful life to Christ. Faithfulness to Christ proves rightstanding with God and the clean heart. Faithfulness to Christ allows God’s Spirit to work within the believing heart. God’s witnesses are faithful and true and eligible to testisfy and preach. This kind of example in the eyes of God also makes a statement to the unbelieving world, “The action of a child of God speaks louder than words”. That’s why the clean and holy heart (a gift from God) are so important.

The example of purity can only be manifested through the work of the Holy Spirit in the believing soul. Man cannot purify the human heart without the saving Grace of Salvation. Heart purity has nothing to do with human maturity or human growth. Purity is given freely from God when the believing heart is cleansed from sin and unrighteosuness. Purity is manifested in the life and the example of the child of God. The best example of heart purity I know of is when every sin of the past is forgiven and the Old Adam is crucified just like Christ. Newness of life is thus found because the believing heart is made clean and holy in the new birth. Heart purity breaks the bondage of sin. The moral make-up of and unbeliever is purified through belief in the truth about the person of Christ.

Being an example of a believer in Christ is a necessary tool to win the lost.

1 Timothy 4:12…but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

Eternal Life or Eternal Damnation?

The clean heart (made clean by the redemptive work of Christ) makes man eligible to receive Eternal Life. The clean heart is proven in the life of obedience to God. Man’s act of faith brings in the Grace of God which thus enacts holiness of character; the divine nature; and the new birth that are found after every sin is forgiven by the Grace and Mercy of God found in a Saviour. The biblical term for this Divine Operation is termed Justification by Grace. Holiness of heart begins when the human soul is made clean by Justification found in the Grace of God. Only the clean and holy heart makes man eligible to receive “Eternal Life”. Eternal Life does begin in this life as long as the heart of man remains clean and holy. The Bible says, “Without holiness no man shall see the Lord”. Eternal Death (damnation upon the human soul in this life) is God’s Judgment for those whose die in sin and unholiness of heart. The condition of the sinner’s heart is not clean or holy and thus not entitled to Eternal Life with God Almighty…in this life or on the other side in Heaven.
