    Evidence of a great doctrinal apostasy:

    Only one. It is the church of His Body, built by God (the Holy Spirit) and is not physical.

    Where have you put your trust (faith)?

    Ps 56:4-6 ---NKJV 4 In God (I will praise His word), In God I have put my trust; I will not fear. What can flesh do to me? 5 All day they twist my words; All their thoughts are against me for evil. 6 They gather together, They hide, they mark my steps, When they lie in wait for my life. Ps...

    Evidence of a great doctrinal apostasy:

    Throwing out the word obedience does not say anything unless obedience is defined. Just what do you claim is obedience to the will of God. I see obedience to God is believing in the work of His son on the cross.

    Evidence of a great doctrinal apostasy:

    The answer is simple. Mankind loves religion (things they do to look sinless). It is a fact that mankind will always resist the Holy Spirit and go about doing what they think will save them. They refuse to place their faith in what Jesus has already done on the cross. In the O.T. it is said...

    Evidence of a great doctrinal apostasy:

    Seems to be a conflict here.

    Evidence of a great doctrinal apostasy:

    Orthodoxy said: Richard, Let me get this right, Dick. God in the fulness of time never intentioned to saved gentiles but in His wisdom He knew the jews were stubborn so He initially took the message to the Jews. When they rejected Him God changed His mind and sot to make the Jew envious of the...

    Evidence of a great doctrinal apostasy:

    *From a Catholic: How can you explain that every Church started by an apostle or one of their representatives all over the ancient world came up with the same Faith? The Christians from Spain, Gaul Rome, Greece, North Africa, Palestine, Ethiopia and India all believe essentially the same way...

    Evidence of a great doctrinal apostasy:

    This is the background of Christ's instruction to Gentiles (through Paul) during the dispensation [age] of grace. 1 Cor 3:10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me [Paul], as a wise masterbuilder, “”I”” have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take...

    1 Jn 3:8: "I am a sinner saved by grace"

    There you go again wanting to put your words in my mouth. It seems you are not able to separate the flesh from the spirit. But God does. What do you make of the words of Paul when he said he had no confidence in the flesh? The children of God do not walk in the flesh because they have no...

    In The Name of Religions;

    MOST (notice I said MOST) religions have a history of repression, hate, and murder. Just about everywhere in history that you find religious people running, or influencing, the civil government you find repression, hate, and murder. There are so many examples of this that it cannot be denied...

    The Religious Mind

    I do not address my writing to you personally. But you address your replies to me personally. As a matter of fact I, as a rule, do not reply to what you write in an OP.

    1 Jn 3:8: "I am a sinner saved by grace"

    This is not directed to you but is what Is see. The flesh is of the Devil because it is sinful. But those that are made children of God, by God, their spirit is born of God who can call the things that are to be the things that are not and the things that are not to be the things that are...

    Religious but lost:

    Religions, what are they? All though history there have been people that have wanted to be "spiritual" leaders, priests and shaman that were looked up to as being nearer to God. So called "Holy men" who have gained power over others through a, supposed, higher relationship to God. Most of...

    Religious but lost:

    I have made the statement "Satan wants to make us religious but lost" and I now want to expand this idea. It is a fact that some of the "Christian Jews" wanted the Gentile Christians to become Jewish by doing the things that the Jews did ""under the law."" This was the big problem that was...

    The Religious Mind

    There are religious people who think they are supposed to make others believe what they believe. They become religious policemen and think they are doing God a service by attacking other for what they believe. It amazes me that the religious can not see that what they are doing is exactly what...

    The Religious Mind

    I would suggest that you have a problem too. In the OP we see a religious zealot acting out hypocrisy. Why, because he is persecuting a child of God with accusations of sin when, in fact, he himself, is committing a sin. He is certainly not loving his neighbor as himself and that means he is...

    Built on The Wrong Apostle:

    And I bet you think you are the true apostle.

    The Religious Mind

    So you identify with the man and his microphone and would have done the same thing. Shame on you.

    Built on The Wrong Apostle:

    This article was written by me and used on Christian debate sites. I believe it to be true based on the scriptures given. It is believed, by many, that the grace church was started by Peter on the day of Pentecost. But if you look close all that is written in Acts, spoken by Peter, is to get...
