HOW TO OVERCOME SIN BY DEALING WITH HUMAN NATURE By Nyron Medina

INTRODUCTION

In this booklet our studies about how to overcome sin continues, this time we deal with the topic of human nature. For almost two thousand years a dangerous error concerning human nature infiltrated Christian theology, this error came from a man by the name of St. Augustine. It placed human nature in
the category of sin, so that ever since that time sin has been viewed as sinful human nature. This error has had a devastating effect on the holiness and morals of the Christian church for many, many centuries, and upon the whole world as a result.

This concept caused many to think that they could not overcome sin, since sin was human nature, and that they would have to wait until the second coming of Jesus Christ at which they will receive new sinless bodies to stop sinning. Christianity was taught that when man was justified, he still retained sinful human
nature which was sin, so that he was saved in sin and not from sin, sanctification was also in sin so that the Law of God could not be thoroughly or truly kept. This was deleterious especially to keeping the Seventh-day Sabbath, since that day could only be kept by the truly converted.

In 1888, God sent a very special revelation to the Seventh-day Adventist Church concerning the human nature of Christ, and this implicatively led to a discovery about human nature as it relates to sin.
Presented here for the first time in this booklet is a true, proper, Biblical understanding of human nature in sin and free from sin, also presented is a Biblical understanding of the real meaning of the term sinful human flesh. For the first time the light has broken through centuries of darkness in its brilliance
removing the darkness imposed by St. Augustine, as we approach the closing seen of this earth’s history, when the 144,000, the trophies of God’s grace are to be revealed. May all be blessed by this light. Amen.

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES SHOULD BE?

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES  SHOULD BE? We are in the very last days, we are told that the last controversy will be very short. “We are standing on the threshold of great and solemn events. Prophecies are fulfilling. The last great conflict will be short, but terrible. Old controversies will be revived. New controversies will arise. We have a great work to do. Our ministerial work must not cease. The last warning must be given to the world. There is a special power in the presentation of the truth at the present time. How long will it last? Only a little while.” Ellen G. White, Selected Messages bk. 3, pg. 419. And in view of the lateness of time, what should be the inquiry of everyone? We are told: “The inquiry of everyone should be ‘whose am I? To whom do I owe allegiance? Is my heart renewed? Is my soul reformed? Are my sins forgiven? Will they be blotted out when the time of refreshing shall come?” Ibid, pg. 419. We must needs examine ourselves to see if we...

DID ELLEN G. WHITE EVER CALL THE S.D.A. CHURCH BABYLON IN ANY WAY? BY NYRON MEDINA

In the Bible is brought to view the following statement: “And after these things I  saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was  lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying,  Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all  nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the  earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are  waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice  from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her  sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:1-4. Of this Scripture  we are told that it speaks about the Church, fallen because of sins. “In amazement  they [the people...

IMPUTED AND IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS EXPLAINED By Nyron Medina

IMPUTED AND IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS  EXPLAINED By Nyron Medina Statement of the case 1. Imputed and imparted righteousness are usually seen as different things in apostate  theology; they are presented as happening either successively or at the very same time,  but they are presented as two different salvific functions.  “In this most illuminating paragraph, the writer traces two distinct phases in the process  of our salvation—two complementary aspects of the plan of redemption—which are in a  certain sense successive, but at the same time simultaneous; two different operations of  the same righteousness of Christ, which alone can satisfy the demands of divine justice  and make saints of us. Let us analyze in outline form these two phases:  A. THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST BY WHICH WE ARE JUSTIFIED.  1. It is imputed to us, which is, credited, granted freely without our earning it.  2. It provides our r...
