    Sinless perfection is easy

    Christ died for all futures sins too not even committed almost 2k years ago. I was born in 1955. It has to be all sins! Otherwise you would have to each day and after each sin (that you may not even be aware of or identify as one) pray and ask forgiveness for many times each day. And then if you...

    Is it prideful or arrogant to claim to be "born again"?

    Yes to which expereience? What's familiar? A simple yes to the vast array of the experiential qualities of a Christian's path to God is to me dismissive, an evasion tactic. I don't mean to push you up against a wall. You should be proud of your testimony - if you actually have one? I have never...

    Is it prideful or arrogant to claim to be "born again"?

    Did you receive confirmation by the Holy Spirit? If you are born again, you must have experienced a change in you, your world view, a.conscious awareness that God is and has been with you all along, leading you up to that day you had this Divine appointment. You pray and know God answers your...

    What is the basis for the unbeliever's condemnation?

    We don't know who God's unsaved sheep are. With our perspective, (lack of foreknowledge), the Gospel must go out to all. That would be wrong, since we are all sinners. We have to look deeper into what Jesus meant when He said this. Since we're all born sinners and "none is righteous - no not...

    What is the basis for the unbeliever's condemnation?

    Yah and prompt the whosoever is drawn first by God. Remember Jesus simple words in John 6:44: No man can come to Me unless the Father who hath sent Me draw him; and I will raise him up at the Last Day John 6:37: "All that the Father gives me will come to me." And before they hear and come they...

    Sinless perfection is easy

    1. Can we agree that Christ died for all our sins, past, present and future? 2. If so, being "in Christ", spiritually, we are without sin. So it is a done deal. If there is no LAW, there is no sin. We are under Grace, therefore the scripturebis true, we cannot sin. 3. We died to our flesh -...

    What is the basis for the unbeliever's condemnation?

    The "whosoever" is a message to us for our perspective only; since we do not have omniscience, we do not know the future and so it is presented that way to us. But God alone knows the beginning and the ending of all things. This is in the realm of His foreknowledge, His sovereignty. He has a...

    What is the basis for the unbeliever's condemnation?

    I am not a Calvinist; but it is your perogative to misjudge and disregard me. God Bless

    What is the basis for the unbeliever's condemnation?

    No. He has in mind a remnant ( His Sheep), the "elect", whom He will save. They are ordained to be saved. Jesus is the Author and Finisher of our faith and so we are not born condemned. We are all born sinners. Not all are His sheep. I don't adhere to the phrase "eternal condmenation". Aionios...

    The flood of old and now approaching days like Noah?

    It is also interesting why Nineveh, a city filled with wicked people, run by a wicked, godless king would repent after a mere man, a stranger, comes into town, preaches repentance with a warning of judgment, would actually heed his warning and not just laugh and scoff at him ... then kill him...

    The flood of old and now approaching days like Noah?

    His dead body was in the fish, but his soul was not. Just souls went to Hades, the fish didn 't. The earth's bars ( gates if Hades) closed behind me - that is not wear the fish went. He was swimming within his normal range, closer to the surface. He "brought up his life from the pit". Again...

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    John Lennon was a brilliant songwriter, but went off the rails a bit. He got into drugs, delved into other religions, meditated with Maharish Mehesh Yogi and realized he was a phony; but evebtually settled on Marxism. He actually envisioned what this Utopian model would be like 55 years ago in...

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    The BIG PICTURE the Dems have in mind is Globalism, a One World Government. They knew decades ago that the USA would be the most difficult country to accept the end of the USA and relinquishjng of our sovereignty. The WEF (with the UN signed onto this goal) have in mind no borders for any...

    What is the difference between being kind, being a coward or being a suck?

    The knowledge of Good and Evil and the discernment between the two is a key purpose that God has for us, part of our education about life. Love and hate are part of that. Good and evil come in many forms, sometimes come in a mixture. Life is complicated and we don't always see the truth behind...

    What is the difference between being kind, being a coward or being a suck?

    You need to rephrase your question. "Suck" is a verb. How can one be a suck? Is that some aboriginal expression you learned on your walkabout in the outback? Anybody else want to take guess? Maybe it's a leech ... or a vampire?

    WHAT DOES IT MEAN WIVES ARE TO BE OBEDIENT TO THEIR HUSBANDS?

    "Obey husbands as you obey the Lord". That makes sense. Jesus gives us all good commandments. So then if a husband is unrighteous, ungodly, does she still remain obedient? Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be...

    Jesus Followed Satan OR Satan Had Physical Power Over Jesus?

    Yes, He relinquished His glory temporarily. Then remember after His mission _ accomplished _ it was returned to Him! And now You, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world existed. JOHN 17:5 Btw, Jesus is YHWH, the Great I AM, Whom in His...

    Jesus Followed Satan OR Satan Had Physical Power Over Jesus?

    You give full honor and worship to God, our Father. That is good. But you do not give the rightly deserved honor nor recognize the true nature of Jesus - who is equal to the Father. And the Holy Spirit ... well, you do not have a grasp on Him either. But Jesus knew this. "who, as He already...
