This is an extremely deep issue that takes a lot of careful thought. When correctly understood in light of scripture we can see how Maximal Opportunities bridges the understanding gap in a lot of areas in the Christian faith. This relates to Molinism or the middle knowledge of God. It explains how God does the all work in salvation, how people come to desire God, how he is all knowing, how and why a loving God allows evil, how and why God does not show favoritism, and how he is not responsible for sin.

Maximal Opportunities to Desire God
This is an extremely deep issue that takes a lot of careful thought. When correctly understood in light of scripture we can see how Maximal Opportunities bridges the understanding gap in a lot of areas in the Christian faith. This relates to Molinism or the middle knowledge of God. It explains how God does the all work in salvation, how people come to desire God, how he is all knowing, how and why a loving God allows evil, how and why God does not show favoritism, and how he is not responsible for sin.
Spiritual Legalism
Have you ever heard the phrase "Let God bless you" or "Allow God's love in"? How about being told you need to "Empty yourself so that God can..." or "Claim a blessing..."? Sounds focused on God right? It is suppose to. The reality is it is actually focused on YOU and YOUR works. This article will explain why this is nothing more than legalism with a 'spiritual' sound. It goes to the heart of how we understand our selves and how we understand God himself. First we need to correctly know God, and correctly understand ourselves in the light of truth. Then we can see the legalism that is disguised in spiritualism.
Once Saved, Always Saved
The phrase "once saved always saved" refers to the understanding of Eternal Security in Salvation. The question this addresses is: Can we lose our salvation? This is a very important question because it impacts a lot of areas of theology. At the same time it is a very easy question to answer when allowing scripture to answer it for us.
SCOTUS and God
5 Justices of the Supreme court of the United States of America made a decision for the of the population and indirectly the rest of the world. I am not going to get into the politics of the issue because there is something greater than politics going on here. The greater is God's Will, God's Wrath, and The Churches stance.
Statement of Faith: God
There is one God who is the one Creator of all (Deuteronomy 6:4;Colossians 1:16), who has revealed Himself in three distinct 'Persons'—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 13:14), in one being, essence, and glory (John 10:30). He has always been The Triune God and was never anything else (Psalm 90:2). God is eternal (Psalm 90:2), infinite (1 Timothy 1:17), and sovereign (Psalm 93:1). God is omniscient (Psalm 139:1-6), omnipresent (Psalm 139:7-13), omnipotent (Revelation 19:6), and unchanging (Malachi 3:6). God is holy (Isaiah 6:3), just (Deuteronomy 32:4), and righteous (Exodus 9:27). God is love (1 John 4:8), gracious (Ephesians 2:8), merciful (1 Peter 1:3), and good (Romans 8:28). He is to be worshiped (Gen. 24:26; Ex. 4:31; 2 Chron. 29:28; 1 Cor. 14:25; Rev. 7:11). He is to be served (Matt. 4:10; 1 Cor. 6:19; Phil. 3:7; 1 Thess. 1:9; Heb. 9:14). He is to be proclaimed (Matt. 28:19f.; John 14:15f.; Acts 1:8).
