    "Free" Will

    Hey StanJ, The passage is obviously spoken to a believer about making good choices. This just means 'voluntarily' and since it is directed toward believers who are already free from sins' bondage, of course they can 'freely' or voluntarily chose to do right. All people who already have the...

    "Free" Will

    Hey StanJ, A better translation: But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly. We have a will. But it is not free from Gods Sovereignty. Hey Nothead, Yes we are supposed love our Lord God with all our soul, mind and...

    What is the narrow gate?

    Yes there will be few, I agree. But it's not eternal life it is LIFE! In this evil age. Who are the few? The sons of God. And after this age what will be the purpose of the sons of God?: Romans 8 18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with...

    QUESTION 1 for YOU - IF YOU BELIEVE JESUS is GOD

    Yes I do. Why? Because the Son chooses me to see: Luke 10:21-22-In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children; yes, Father, for...

    QUESTION 1 for YOU - IF YOU BELIEVE JESUS is GOD

    The Son of God. When I do this, God the Father is in me and I in Him: 1 John 4:15-Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

    QUESTION 1 for YOU - IF YOU BELIEVE JESUS is GOD

    Mr. Bride, It is written: Heb 1:5-9- For to which of the angels did God (God the Father is speaking in this whole passage) ever say, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you”? Or again, “I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son”? 6 And again, when he (God the Father)...

    "Free" Will

    Think spiritually not carnally nothead. Seek the spirit not the flesh. You are trying to rationalize with your carnal mind the Spiritual things of God: Romans 8:6- For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. God the Father puts everything in our path...

    Sects=Work of the flesh

    Yes when we first come to God and His truth, it is fear: Proverbs 1:7 - The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of knowledge: [but] fools despise wisdom and instruction. But we don't stay in fear. We proceed to the TRUE character of God-LOVE: 1Jn 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for...

    "Free" Will

    Again let the Word of God cut you like a sword: Romans 3:10-12 As it is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one; There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God. They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not...

    QUESTION 1 for YOU - IF YOU BELIEVE JESUS is GOD

    Yes. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God: Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Yes. To us there is but one God, and that ‘one God’ is the Father, of whom are all things, just as Col 1 explains. Besides this “one God” there is also...

    Sects=Work of the flesh

    Yes DPMartin and The Vale of Tears, I am right there with you. The 33,000 SECTS of Christendom is not what God wanted according to His Word and we SHOULD ALL seek to be in agreement with Christ. That is why I can’t be part of one church of the sects of Christendom. They ALL got a lil...

    "Free" Will

    I am sorry Nothead but it is DRAG. Look at this Greek word throughout the whole NT and it is used as drag. GOD DRAGS US TO HIM AND HIS SON. "For OF HIM, and THROUGH HIM, and TO HIM, are ALL THINGS: to Whom be glory for ever. Amen" (Rom. 11:36). Can you see that even that choice we make is...

    Sects=Work of the flesh

    Here is a joke: Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?" He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said...

    QUESTION 1 for YOU - IF YOU BELIEVE JESUS is GOD

    Mr. Bride, It is not easy to go against the majority of Christians who DON'T want to believe what the Word of God says: God is totally Sovereign. That is, He is in control of EVERYTHING and ALL THE TIME. Many people actually claim to believe this, but they really really don't. The words...

    "Free" Will

    Ok Nothead, but how do we will?: "No man CAN come to Me, except the Father which has sent Me draw [Gk: ‘drag’] him: and I will raise him up at the last day" (John 6:44). This verse is plain: "No man CAN…" come to Christ of his own will. It is the Father "dragging" him that is the cause of one...

    QUESTION 1 for YOU - IF YOU BELIEVE JESUS is GOD

    Correct my fault (4 times is Michael mentioned in scripture) Michael is called “the prince of thy people [ Israel] in the book of Daniel: Dan 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such...

    What required for going to Heaven?

    Whats required for going to Heaven? Answer: God was pleased to have all fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself ALL THINGS on earth or in heaven, by making peace through His blood, shed on the cross. (Col.1:19) In the name of the Savior of ALL THINGS, JoJo
