    In regard to what Jesus said to Peter, it appears that the Apostle John's presumption is in error.

    The power of the human mind can literally send a mountain AWAY. The puny, intangible, conception of “evil” and “sin” is no match for such power. Psychologically, in the aftermath of TRULY ACCEPTING what’s been done for us on the cross — 100%, with no ifs, ands or buts — your outlook becomes...

    Humankind had the exact same mental problem in Jesus’ day. The Pharisees and Sadducees were shouting “So be it!” under the proud banner of Judaism. John the Baptist and Jesus (miles apart) began shouting a Divinely-Revealed and revolutionary solution for ALL of what ails humanity — the exact...

    The Church rebuts: Picky, picky. It’s not a bad lie. What’s wrong with repentance? The answer to this question is written ALL over our 2000-Year Progress Report. Practicing the lie takes our focus entirely AWAY from addressing the Real problem. Why DO we need to change our way of thinking...

    “After Alexander had conquered the known world (around 300BC) he had a problem communicating with the many Greeks under his rule. Rather than learn ALL the different types of Greek himself, Alexander invented a Greek language called ‘Koine’ or common Greek. It was common in that ALL the...

    Unfortunately, you have been programmed not to do so. Brainwashed. Because of that, it would be a thousand times easier for you, had you never heard anything about Jesus. And, we could start from scratch. That is why Jesus said, it will be much easier for the people of Sodom to get it, than the...

    I am here to tell you (and I am blessed to have had a healthy-enough body not to have been killed by it), when I was twenty-five, it rang True at the highest spiritual level a human being can possibly reach (on this side of eternity). The Tenth Floor. And, (as I have already told you) when I...

    @theefaith asks, Are you saved? If yes: how were you saved? LOL. Now, I warned you, if you found the totality of my religion education funny, you would find my “salvation story” hilarious. And, by the way, in place of “saved” I would say... RANSOMED. And, yes, I have been RANSOMED, or saved...

    If not that, then it certainly sounds like what an Atheist would say. And, I know you’re not an Atheist, no matter how wrong the rest of my perception of you has been. See? I can admit when I’ve made a mistake. Two mistakes. I thought you were a man. And, I thought you were honest. You...

    You love it when your teachers give you their little word-reversals. Here’s one from the Holy Spirit I’d bet you’ve never heard before: If you see your sin, you are blind to what’s been done for you on the cross. However, if you Truly see what’s been done for you on the cross, you are blind to...

    Wow. So much for my plan. I come back from “a hard day at the office” only to find out that, while I was gone, the entire house has turned into utter chaos! Flashes of lightning in the windows. Rumblings in the basement. Peals of thunder rocking the timbers. An earthquake shaking the...

    In regard to what Jesus said to Peter, it appears that the Apostle John's presumption is in error.

    To me, Paul is an open book. He is Truly a wonderful guy, but he has made some terrible mistakes. I do not mean before his “conversion.” Paul never stopped being a Pharisee. And, he killed way more Christians (in the billions) after his conversion than he ever did before. @face2face writes...

    Yup, the Apostle Johns presumption is wrong, and you are right. :goodj: We have banged it around and have already established that fact. The Truth stands, undisputed. Let's move on, already, to Romans 6:16. If you are being facetious (and, if so, you are probably speaking for the entire...

    In regard to what Jesus said to Peter, it appears that the Apostle John's presumption is in error.

    As I have already posted: as far back as I can remember, I have always had a very close relationship with God, specifically, the Father. Yes, Jesus says, “The only way to the Father, is through the Son.” However, Jesus is not speaking figuratively here, Jesus is speaking literally — about the...

    @Marymog Posts: I think they believed they were being guided by the Spirit. Back to my origingal question: Do you believe Joseph Smith, Martin Luther, Zwingili and John Calvin 'asked'? Or to put it another way: Do YOU believe they were guided by the Spirit into Truth? In answer to my...

    @L3astAmOngManyB13ss3d, wrote the best one-liner advice I have heard in here so far. It should be posted on the door of every church: “GO back to the cross and seek the perfect salvation.” “Salvation” is a very popular Church-word, so the Church-Taught should ALL understand exactly what she...

    In regard to what Jesus said to Peter, it appears that the Apostle John's presumption is in error.

    @Marymog asks: Ok...Do you believe Joseph Smith, Martin Luther, Zwingili and John Calvin 'asked'? Do I "believe" they did? We could talk about that word a lot, too. "Belief." One can certainly presume they asked. What do you think? You tell me. Do you think they LISTENED?

    In regard to what Jesus said to Peter, it appears that the Apostle John's presumption is in error.

    @Marymog asks "The Holy Spirit will confirm TO WHOM whether something is actually Inspired?" To anyone who honestly asks. "Ask and you shall receive." Of course, it helps to truly LISTEN. So one must get the wax out of one's ears; and, all preconceived notions out of one's head. That's a...

    @theefaith asks "why did Christ found the church?" He didn't. Jesus's gathering is ALL of humanity, from Adam and onward.

    In regard to what Jesus said to Peter, it appears that the Apostle John's presumption is in error.

    @ScottA, Have you ever read a book from start to finish? Or do you always just skim the cliff notes? Did you actually read Genesis or peruse it? Like, Yeah, yeah, "In the beginning" and all that. But it just goes on and on. I may have missed something, but that Moses guy just keeps on rambling...
