. ● Rom 3:23 . . All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God Well; in my own experience, that statement has been 100% reliable because I have yet to encounter even one person in all my 81+ years who I felt was successfully duplicating God's sinless perfection. So then, I've concluded...

. 449) Jas 1:2-4 . . Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials knowing that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. And let perseverance have its perfect result, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. It is so frustrating to open a package...

. 448) Heb 13:22 . . I urge you, brethren, bear with this word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly. The letter to Hebrews doesn't seem brief to me, but according to the author it's a concise version of his thoughts, i.e. it's to the point; free of elaboration and/or unnecessary...

I sometimes wonder from whence I got the nerve to participate on internet forums. I've never been to seminary. The bulk of my Bible training has come from books, sermons, seminars, Sunday schools, and radio programs. (YouTube didn't exist back then.) I was an industrial welder forty years in...

Not all Christians believe the way you do. The thing is: according to the principles discussed in the 14th of Romans: if you sincerely believe alcohol is wrong for Christians, then for you it is definitely wrong, but you mustn't condemn others who feel that alcohol, in moderation, is alright for...

Jesus imbibed. ● Mark 14:24-25 . . I tell you the truth, I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it anew in the kingdom of God. The thing is: Passover is celebrated in Spring a few months ahead of grape harvest. So whatever was in that cup had to be at least...

From the perspective of a retired welder. _

I'm pretty sure Jesus used an alcoholic beverage as one of the species when he dedicated the so called Lord's Supper, but seriously question all posits that suggest the bread he broke was a space cake. To my knowledge, no breads back then were made with cannabis; especially during Passover. _

. I have seen Jesus' church depicted as a virgin (2Cor 11:2) but I have yet to see his church depicted as a mother. In point of fact, the birth spoken of by John 1:12-13 and John 3:3-8 is an act of God alone rather than a joint act by Jesus' church and God together like as when the Holy Spirit...

. ● Phil 3:20-21 . . But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body. Seeing as how Jesus'...

. 447) Heb 13:17 . . Heed those who lead you, and submit to them; for they keep watch over your souls, as those who will give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with grief, for this would be unprofitable for you. Christianity is not a democracy. No; it is a theocracy with a monarch...

. Re: Jesus was called “the Son of God” because God “created Him” There is a bit of confusion relative to Jesus' ties to God. For one: before any man can be considered for David's throne, they must first be one of his paternal descendants; and that's on oath. ● Ps 132:11 . .The Lord has sworn...

. Re: Jesus was called “the Son of God” because God “created Him” Born-again Christians are described as God's handiwork. (2Cor 5:17, Gal 6:15, Eph 2:10, Eph 4:24, Col 3:9-10) Whereas Jesus is described as God's offspring. (John 1:14, John 1:18, John 3:16, John 3:18, 1John 4:9) So then, Jesus...

. 446) Heb 13:16 . . And do not neglect doing good and sharing; for with such sacrifices God is pleased. Doing good and sharing are bloodless sacrifices; and in point of fact are far more likely to be accepted by God than the death of birds and beasts. In the first chapter of the book of...

. Pollution vs Corruption In a nutshell: pollution generally pertains to one's practices, whereas corruption pertains to the core of one's being. For example: ● Matt 23:27-28 . .Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful...
