    Finding Peace

    All I did was quote scripture. Seems you have an issue with it, take it up with the Lord.

    Finding Peace

    I try to apply all Scriptural admonitions in my life. Anyone who professes to be Christian would be wise to do the same. Whatever you decide to do is between you and the Lord.

    Can Someone Please Define What a Christian is?

    "Ghost" is just a bad translation. It should be "Spirit". "God is Spirit and those who worship him do so in spirit and truth." (John 4:24)

    Finding Peace

    Perhaps you have heard the saying, "No God, no peace, know God, know peace". This is a profound truth. True peace can ONLY be had by understanding, believing and fully loving God. The following texts are taken from NIV (New International Version). Job 22:21-22, “Submit to God and be at peace...

    "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me"

    “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. This he said, signifying what death he should die.” John 12:32-33 In the twelfth chapter of John, Jesus is trying to prepare his disciples for his upcoming death. He explains that the work he was sent to do as the man Christ...

    Who did Jesus Die a Ransom for?

    Huh? And what scriptural proof do you have for that? And what exactly is the Moses covenant? What covenant did Jesus' death fulfilled?

    Can Someone Please Define What a Christian is?

    The New Testament continually calls Christians-the "church." Remember the Greek word translated "church" means "called out ones." In other words, a minority is called out from the majority of the human race. Consequently, many scriptures use the words "elect," "elected," "election," and...

    Blood Transfusions

    The Watchtower Society teaches Jehovah’s Witnesses that blood transfusions are unbiblical. An inquiry made to the American Red Cross shows that one hundred people per thousand, or ten percent, need blood in some form every year. With the need for blood transfusions so great and with numerous...

    Why is the death, burial, and resurrection important?

    15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. 16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: 17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your...

    The Rapture?

The concept which has commonly become known as “the rapture” is taken from 1 Thessalonians 4:16,17 “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the...

    The House Church

    Just wondering how many here belong to a "House Church"? By "House" or "Home Church" I'm talking about a group of Christians who regularly gather for Bible study in private homes. Granted there are groups who are part of a larger Christian body, or parish, who may get together at private homes...

    C. T. RUSSELL vs. THE ORGANIZATION

    What's interesting, the Witnesses will say that since the death of Russell they have received new light, new understanding of God's plan of Salvation. The problem is, were Russell to see what the organization he founded has become, he wouldn't recognize it. In fact, it was the Society AFTER his...
