    Cessationism (the notion that the miraculous gifts of the Spirit "went away with the death of the Apostles")

    I was in a cessationist church for a number of years, and was one myself. We believed (and they still do no doubt), that what ceased were the 'sign gifts' which were tongue speaking and the gift of healing. They were given for a specific time. The rest continued including healing from God...

    Sinless Perfection. Why do so many teach against what Jesus taught?

    THE SECOND BLESSING by Andrew Murray IN the life of the believer there sometimes comes a crisis, as clearly marked as his conversion, in which he passes out of a life of continual feebleness and failure to one of strength, and victory, and abiding rest. The transition has been called the Second...

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    You didn't say what the deception will be or whether you agree that the incarnation is a type of union with Christ.

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    Do you agree that there will be a new deception and what will it be? When I say new I mean the revival of one not seen for a while as there is nothing new under the sun We are to be humans united with Christ, as was shown when Jesus was conceived, man united with the Almighty. This is to...

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    This is true but something is being missed out: Satan will make sure that the true message to bring in the Saints, will be contaminated with lies wrapped around the truth. It will sound like the real thing ie holiness teaching from the past including the early church and times of true revival...

    1John 2:6 whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.

    @ProDeo If any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. 1John2:1. This is another verse which is greatly misunderstood. It says 'if' we sin, not 'when' we sin. If we are not walking in the Light guided by the Spirit, we will sin constantly in thought word and...

    1John 2:6 whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.

    @ProDeo If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 1John 1:8. As we know, good exegesis consists of using the inductive method, in taking many scriptures, and deriving a general conclusion from them. ‘The number, clarity and relevance of those many passages...

    1John 2:6 whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.

    @ProDeo Romans 13:11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. 13Let us...

    1John 2:6 whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.

    Oh ProDeo! I entirely sympathise having pc problems myself ie mine will not accept windows 11 and has 10 which runs out next month and I have been hacked, having terrible problems with passwords. I pray for you. Know ye not that intense attack is a sign that you are getting somewhere...

    1John 2:6 whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.

    We understand 1John 2:6 by considering these verses too: He that commiteth sin is of the devil. 1 John 3:8. Whosoever abideth in Him sinneth not, whosoever sinneth hath not seen Him neither known Him John 3:6 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin 1 John 3:9 He that abideth in Him...

    Is original sin scriptural?

    Agreed he was not a bastard only thought of as one.

    Is original sin scriptural?

    There is one thing that is common in cults and heretics: they interpret scripture without taking into account apostolic tradition, in spoken and written word, and Jewish roots, and instead turn to ancient philosophies and build their religion on that and their own human reasoning. You also do...
