  1. Jesus’ Equality with God: A Sola Scriptura Perspective

    Jesus’ Equality with God: A Sola Scriptura Perspective

    But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.” This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. ~ John 5:17-18 From a Sola Scriptura...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    Again, you are completely wrong about 2 Thessalonians 2:15. That verse does not give anyone permission to add to the Bible or treat man-made traditions as equal to God's Word. Paul was telling the Thessalonians to hold to what he and the other apostles had already taught them, whether spoken in...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    That’s not how the Bible presents atonement, and your objection shows a failure to grasp both the seriousness of sin and the holiness of God. Jesus was not just an innocent man, He is the eternal Son of God, willingly taking the place of the guilty to satisfy divine justice. Isaiah 53:5 says...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    That kind of statement is blasphemous. You’re mocking the Gospel of Jesus Christ with twisted, carnal logic. The Bible says “The preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but unto us which are saved it is the power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:18). Jesus wasn't “killed out of rage,”...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    According to Scripture, there is no room for redefining aionios (αἰώνιος) when it is tied to punishment. The Bible uses that same Greek word to describe both eternal life and eternal punishment, making it clear that both are equally unending in duration. In Matthew 25:46, Jesus says, “And these...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    You may not want to believe that God poured out His wrath on His Son, but that is exactly what happened, because that’s what our sin demanded. Isaiah 53:10 says, “Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him, he hath put him to grief,” and Isaiah 53:6 declares, “The Lord hath laid on him the iniquity...

    What are some of the reasons people don’t like going to church buildings or institutionalized churches?

    Your comment relies on a man-made metaphor to justify theological reasoning, but Scripture is not interpreted through clever wordplay or idioms, it is interpreted by Scripture itself. God’s Word warns against leaning on human understanding (Proverbs 3:5), and tells us that “no prophecy of the...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    According to Scripture, no one has the authority to speak from personal opinion when it comes to God's truth, but every believer is called to declare what God has already spoken through His Word. 2 Timothy 3:16–17 says, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    According to Scripture, God did not punish Himself for giving us free will. He punished sin. Jesus Christ, who is God in the flesh (John 1:1, 14), took our punishment voluntarily. Isaiah 53:5 says, “But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities,” and verse 10 says...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    Your entire argument is built on lies and rebellion against the authority of God's Word. The Bible never “rejects” itself as the only authority, that’s a ridiculous and false claim. What it does reject is adding to or taking away from what God has spoken. Deuteronomy 4:2 says, “Ye shall not add...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    You are not rightly dividing anything, you’re twisting Scripture to defend man-made religion, and I’ve had enough of your dishonest arguments. You keep accusing others of cherry-picking while you rip verses out of context to support false doctrine. Mark 7 isn’t about hygiene, it’s about corrupt...

    What are some of the reasons people don’t like going to church buildings or institutionalized churches?

    Your statement is a philosophical opinion, not a biblical argument. Sola Scriptura means we test everything against the Word of God, not logic structures or abstract reasoning. Scripture frequently uses metaphors, analogies, and parables to communicate spiritual truth, even when every aspect of...

    Instead of preaching the good news that sinners can be made righteous in Christ and escape the wrath to come, the gospel has degenerated into the pretext that we can be happy in Christ and escape the hassles of life. ~ Ray Comfort

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    Your claim that “wrath” is not in Isaiah 53 or the New Testament is simply false. Just because the word wrath (Hebrew: ʾaph, Greek: orge) isn’t used explicitly in a particular verse doesn’t mean the concept isn’t clearly present. Isaiah 53 is filled with language that points directly to God’s...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    That analogy is not only irreverent, it’s a gross misrepresentation of the holy, righteous God revealed in Scripture. Comparing God to a playground bully shows you don’t understand who He is or what sin actually is. God is not lashing out at the weak, He is judging rebellion against His perfect...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    Your entire argument collapses when you look at the actual context of Scripture and the consistent use of the word aionios (αἰώνιος) across the New Testament. You’re attempting to redefine a biblical word to fit your theology rather than letting the Bible speak for itself. Aionios does not...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    It’s not up to you to decide what God should or shouldn’t do. God is not a tyrant, and He’s not a product of man’s imagination, He is the holy, righteous Judge revealed in Scripture. When you say everlasting wrath doesn’t fit the crime, you’re accusing God of injustice, whether you admit it or...

    Truth or Terror: The Biblical Reality of Apostasy

    For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. ~ Jude 1:4 Did you know that false teachers are marked for judgment. A false teacher...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    The argument you're making is not grounded in Scripture, and that’s the standard we must use. Sola Scriptura means that Scripture alone is the final and sufficient authority for all doctrine, correction, and instruction in righteousness. You quoted 2 Timothy 3:16-17 but missed the point, Paul is...
