    Jesus came to seek and to save THAT which was lost. - What was it that was lost?

    He came to give Life to the dead. Who was/is dead? Everyone who had not received Life anew. Don't make it more complicated than it is. Have not many men done just that? Mt 8:22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead. Do we need to have all of the answers to...

    Jesus came to seek and to save THAT which was lost. - What was it that was lost?

    Was not LIFE lost? Did not Jesus come to make it available again to men? Ge 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. They were ALIVE! Ge 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good...

    The 4 Eternal Destinies of Humankind

    I do not believe that I said anything different. I am into my Bible daily, seven days a week, 52 weeks a year.

    The 4 Eternal Destinies of Humankind

    Jer 10:23 O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps. We can read and study according to our flesh alone and listen to what other men say, but doing that are we not directing our own steps? But... if in our reading, studying and...

    Warning of dangers to the doctors & some of their patients, even healers / pending judgment of God

    @dev553344 When two different doctors decided that the best course for my lung cancer was surgery, the nodule in my lung was the only place they knew I had cancer. Surgery was considered a better course than chemotherapy or radiotherapy. During the operation to remove the lower part of my lung...

    There is only one true church

    Every morning I surrender to God. You ask how I know and say it is subjective. The answer is between me and Him. Do others such as yourself believe what I say? Can you know that I do? That is up to God if He chooses to confirm to others what He confirms to me. I will testify but who must believe...

    There is only one true church

    Ultimately, I believe that indeed all of our choices matter in God's eyes. It is not ambiguous to God. If I am surrendering to the Holy Spirit and following the lead of the Holy Spirit always, then I will always be making the right choices. If I have not yet overcome the world of me as Jesus...

    The 4 Eternal Destinies of Humankind

    If we are missing a necessary mark, but still we are really pressing toward Him will He not correct us? As for the brother against brother on this and other forums, if they or we are really brothers in Christ, will not God where necessary resolve any difficulties? Even when disagreeing, we need...

    There is only one true church

    Yes, I must make choices, but the ones that matter are the ones that God has put before me. The Truth I believe is that Jesus is Truth. How well does any man know Jesus? The answer for any man is the portion of Truth that he has... or so I believe. Does not God look at what each of us has and...

    Even so... that God ultimately gives any increase. I am old, but I have not yet finished my course.

    I wouldn't say he is my teacher although I have certainly learned things from him. The basics of what I posted on this thread were from things I learned long before I met him. I am still learning and growing my friend. Only God gives any real increase.

    There is only one true church

    Why must I make a choice? What if no man were an apostle today? Would this mean that God would not save anyone today?

    There is only one true church

    I agree that the apostles who wrote scriptures were inspired by God to do so. Having said that... who among even the apostles never quenched the Spirit of God? God has not revealed to me the answer to that question. How would I know any more about any bishops?

    The 4 Eternal Destinies of Humankind

    Below is a writing of mine from several years ago which mentions three levels of Life [three heavens] and one final death. [I have made several revisions today to hopefully clarify.] "Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily...
