    You Don’t Have to Answer Everyone—Jesus Didn’t Either

    When Jesus Said Enough Is Enough: Why We Don’t Answer Every Attack. Luke 20:8 says, “So Jesus said to them, ‘Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.’” To understand this, we need to look at the context. In Luke 20:1–7, the religious leaders confronted Jesus in the temple and...

    “We Will Not Have This Man to Reign Over Us”, The Root of Rebellion

    I do because I actually believe the truth of the Bible. That’s the reason I share what I do, and I won’t apologize for standing on what God has clearly said. I'm glad you like my post enough to follow what I write. As for your comment, if you're going to accuse me of hypocrisy, at least be...

    Real Christians

    I’ve thought about this many times too, and it really does make you wonder. While salvation is by grace through faith and not by works or outward behavior (Ephesians 2:8–9), Scripture also makes it clear that genuine believers will have a heart for Christ and a growing desire to speak of the...

    What is a “Push-button salvation”?

    There are no push-button salvation options. “Push-button salvation” is a common term, often used critically, to describe the idea that salvation (being saved from sin and eternal punishment) can be achieved through a simple, effortless act, like pressing a button, rather than through genuine...

    “We Will Not Have This Man to Reign Over Us”, The Root of Rebellion

    Wow, where do you come up with this stuff, it sure is not from the Bible. Your interpretation is not only off-base, it completely twists what Jesus actually said. The parable of the minas in Luke 19:11–27 is not about Satan, it’s about Jesus Himself. The passage clearly states that the nobleman...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    I never said “neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand” as if it stood alone without context. What I said is that when someone is truly born again, they are genuinely saved and kept by the power of God, not by their own strength, but by His faithfulness. Being born again is not just an...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    I never said that. You're putting words in my mouth that I didn’t write and don’t believe. What I actually said is that if someone turns away from God and never returns, it’s because they were never truly saved to begin with. That’s straight from Scripture, “They went out from us, but they were...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    You’re accusing me of following man-made teaching, but I’m the one actually standing on Sola Scriptura, Scripture alone, while you're adding ideas that the Bible never teaches. I asked a simple, honest question: “So, where do you find that in the Bible?” And you didn’t answer it. That speaks...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    I don’t follow Calvin, Luther, or Augustine, I follow Christ and believe what is written in the Word of God. The idea that “we all sin a little here and there and can’t help it” is not what I’m teaching. What I am saying is what the Bible says: that while we are called to holiness and must fight...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    The claim that saying “those who are truly saved are kept by God’s power” is false doctrine completely misunderstands both the nature of salvation and the power of God. It’s not accusing God of failing, just the opposite. It’s trusting that God never fails to finish what He starts. Scripture is...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    So, where do you find that in the bible?

    “We Will Not Have This Man to Reign Over Us”, The Root of Rebellion

    In Luke 19:14, Jesus tells a sobering truth through a parable: “But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.” This is not just a historical snapshot of Israel’s rejection of their Messiah, it’s a reflection of the heart condition...

    No Exceptions: Jesus Was Talking to You

    JOHN 1:1 serves as a key reference for Trinitarians because it plainly declares the full deity of Jesus Christ. The claim that “the Word was a god” is a serious distortion of the text and ignores both the grammar and the theology of the passage. While The Bible Translator journal may speculate...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    At no point in my posts did I write or imply that “you can live in unrepentant habitual sin and still go to heaven.” That is not what I believe, and it's not what I’m teaching. In fact, I said the exact opposite. I made it very clear that those who continue in sin without repentance were never...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    I am with the truth of the scripture crowd, Sola Scriptura, the true gospel that never teaches that someone can live in willful sin and still be secure. The Bible is crystal clear, those who continue in sin without repentance show they were never truly born again (1 John 3:6-10), therefore, they...

    What would you do if …

    Ha ha, if “same old say so” is all you’ve got, then I guess the truth is still doing its job. You can say goodbye if you want, but that doesn’t change anything I’ve said, or the truth behind it. I’m not intimidated by dismissive comments, and I’m actually glad you’re reading my posts. Keep it...

    Whats so special about saying 'It is Written"

    Jesus said, “It is written…” in response to Satan’s temptations to show us that the written Word of God is our ultimate authority and defense against lies, deception, and spiritual attacks. Though He is fully God, Jesus was also fully man, and in His humanity, He modeled how we are to stand...

    What would you do if …

    Let’s get something straight, I didn’t ask for your opinion, and to be honest, I don’t care for it either. This is a public thread, and I responded to what was posted, plain and simple. If you or someone else chooses to quote from a source and present it without full context, then yes, others...

    Run that by me again, Moses

    Fun, fun, grin. Thanks for the reminder. I am finished with this foolishness, so I put him on ignore.
