    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    As to Lynn Cheney, I'd not vote for a woman for any ruling office. That is to be reserved for men - Gen 3:16 NLT "Then he said to the woman, 'I will sharpen the pain of your pregnancy, and in pain you will give birth. And you will desire to control your husband, but he will rule over you.'”...

    Born Again or Christian? Is there a difference and what is your biblical support ?

    "But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God, who were born, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God." (John 1:12-13 NRSV) "Jesus answered him, 'Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    If you keep up with current events, I do not see how you cannot know Sen. Joe Manchin. He has been a thorn in Biden's side for some time now, blocking some of the extremes of Biden's bills.

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    I know that in the past, voting for a 3rd Party was considered a wasted vote. I'm not so sure that Sen. Manchin would be a wasted vote. I have voted 3rd party in the past, mainly as protest, but with Sen. Manchin, when the other two choices are Biden and Trump, I suspect that 3rd Party may be...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    EG, I apologize for overlooking your points. I've been doing a lot of posting and spending time on writing each one the best that I know how. NO, DEFINITELY NOT! I would never consider voting for a liberal Democrat because they have become de facto communists, even though they do not carry...

    Teaching that predestination was invented by Calvin is a lie

    Who wrote the following? “I will here say that it is a mistaken idea, as entertained by the Calvinists, that God has decreed all things whatsoever that come to pass, for the volition of the creature is as free as air. You may inquire whether we believe in foreordination; we do, as strongly as...

    Teaching that predestination was invented by Calvin is a lie

    WHO HAS ABSOLUTE SOVEREIGNTY? "Our God is in the heavens; he does whatever he pleases." (Ps 115:3 NRSV) "For I know that the LORD is great; our Lord is above all gods. Whatever the LORD pleases he does, in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all deeps." (Ps 135:5-6 NRSV) "I blessed the Most...

    Teaching that predestination was invented by Calvin is a lie

    "And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but kindly to every one, an apt teacher, forbearing, correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant that they will repent and come to know the truth, and they may escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to...

    Teaching that predestination was invented by Calvin is a lie

    Election: traditionally known as Predestination For you are a people holy to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on earth to be his people, his treasured possession. It was not because you were more numerous than any other people that the LORD set his...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    Trump and his team are already pursuing those on his enemies list. He is not yet President again and yet he has started attacking those even in his own party. When Richard Nixon was found to have an enemies list, it was one of the actions that brought him down. Check this operation by the...

    What Old Covenant Laws are the New Covenant believer to obey?

    "And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul." (1Sam 18:1 ASV) The Hebrew behind the words "was knit" was used with females three times in the OT, this time with Jonathan...

    The truth of resurrection as Jesus Christ taught two resurrections.

    You perverted a biblical statement by quoting 1/2 of a sentence thus; "And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation." John 5:29 You put "And" in upper case and ignored that "and" means something...

    Is Orthodoxy without Orthopraxy possible?

    Do any on this Forum embrace the key doctrine of Christian orthodoxy that keeps the Unitarians, Branhamists, Frankists Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons and Oneness Pentecostals out of even the liberal, National Council of Churches? Member Communions – National Council of Churches By the "key...

    What Old Covenant Laws are the New Covenant believer to obey?

    Being a heterosexual act or a homosexual act are both defined as sin because of the nature of the homosexual act as well as the nature of the heterosexual act. Since the Hebrew or Greek of the Bible have no equivalent word for homosexual or heterosexual, the exact nature of the act being...

    What Old Covenant Laws are the New Covenant believer to obey?

    So you do not need any Christian teacher of any known or published confession of faith, because you have a direct line to the Lord Jesus Christ, and you can bypass the teachers He gave to the church. That explains a lot and it seems to be the approach of far too many posting on this Forum...

    What Old Covenant Laws are the New Covenant believer to obey?

    To Big Boy Johnson - I see, a free lance guy on Bible doctrine. That explains a lot. It seems, according to many, that Christ giving church teachers was superfluous! If a 'believer' won't or can't identify with a confession of faith or a known denominational doctrinal stand; I lose interest in...

    What Old Covenant Laws are the New Covenant believer to obey?

    You've used one of the most misused verses in the Bible - Philippians 4:13. But read in context, the "all things" is limited to the topic Paul is speaking of - "Not that I am referring to being in need; for I have learned to be content with whatever I have. I know what it is to have little...

    What did Christ say about the Law?

    Davy, you wrote: "And Jesus certainly did NOT nail The Ten Commandments to His cross. Those who think so are listening to the devil and his servants. (And no, I am not Jewish. I am a Protestant Christian.)" What Protestant denomination would you identify with, or more closely align with today...
