    Jesus Followed Satan OR Satan Had Physical Power Over Jesus?

    Well, correct, out of 62 English tranalations viewed at Biblegateway,com, 25 say "tempt" and 37 say "test".. The words are interchangeable - they mean the same thing. That was the point of Him being in the desert - not the premise of your thread. The statement was about the Lord. Jesus is Lord...

    Jesus Followed Satan OR Satan Had Physical Power Over Jesus?

    Satan had no power over Jesus. The Father sent His Son, the Messiah/Savior on a mission and his first task was a 40 day fast in the wilderness and temptation by Satan. It was just part of God's plan. Several things were accomplished. 1. Jesus was tempted and remained faithful to His Father...

    The flood of old and now approaching days like Noah?

    The correlation to Noah's time was given _ I think _ to speak of the unawareness and imminency of the coming judgment; not the state of wickedness of the entire world. He destroyed everyone and saved only eight. This time I believe 1/3 will be saved. The world been changed by Christ, much more...

    Thanksgiving

    Does the UK have a similar holiday where you give thanks to God aside from Christmas and Easter?

    Thanksgiving

    Sorry for your loss. But he is giving thanks for where he is now and will be waiting for you. I ask Jesus often to say hi to my family up there, as I imagine their wonderful life in heaven.

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    Maybe the Deep State has something else up their sleeves. I really suspected something big. The assassinatiins attempts didn't work, they lost ... but is it over? Anything can happen from now till Jan. 20.

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    The US government reported 650k homeless in 2023, a 12% increase since the previous year. So by 2025, at that percentage increased, that number will be over 800k. Where are all these 12 million illegals going? Moving in with families already here? Something is not right. Only 5% incoming remain...

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    They cannot interfere with federal agents deporting. The may stand aside and not help. There was 40k homeless people in LA county there when I left Torrance 8 years ago and 75k now.

    Work out your own Salvation?

    I don't see that your post has anything to do with my apology to Taken. Please do not use my post to promulgate your view. But as for the video, it's sad, but true and an honest expose of transgenderism.

    Work out your own Salvation?

    Believing in and following Jesus is the only way. Satan uses all other paths and he plants tares within the Church. But they do not deceive the Author of our faith Who finishes the task. Praise God!

    14 IRRESOLVABLE CONTRADICTIONS WHICH RESULT FROM A LITERAL RICH MAN AND LAZARUS

    Your thread is false, like much of your theology. You'll find out soon enough. That's enough for me, I'm done.

    Work out your own Salvation?

    Sorry, my mistake.

    Work out your own Salvation?

    Matthew's gospel is clearly written for a Jewish Christian audience living within the immediate proximity of the homeland itself. The Book of Matthew is the most Jewish of all the gospels. MATTHEW opens with a geneology, pointing the Jews to their Messiah based on their history. Throughout...

    Work out your own Salvation?

    No, He means something worse will happen if we don't repent. When Jesus delivered people from demons, they were cleansed of demons, not sin. He said, go and sin no more. But at that time _ during Jesus mission _ no one had been cleaned of sin ( born again) until Pentecost.

    Work out your own Salvation?

    Am I misinterpreting your implication that the 7 seals, 7 trumpets and 7 bowls of the Great Tribulation (tha hasn't happened yet) is symbolic for judgments that have already occurred throughout history? That would mean you are a Partial- Preterist. Don't need to derail the topic and rekindle...

    14 IRRESOLVABLE CONTRADICTIONS WHICH RESULT FROM A LITERAL RICH MAN AND LAZARUS

    Cont. So with this false premise that Phoneman777 created in this thread, that Hades is only the grave where someone goes when they die and are buried and not some netherworld/ underworld, a hopeless place of darkness, fear and torment, void of anything good, where ungodly departed souls go...

    14 IRRESOLVABLE CONTRADICTIONS WHICH RESULT FROM A LITERAL RICH MAN AND LAZARUS

    He said in Matt. 16:18 "And I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it. I suppose you think the gates of Hades means what, the lid to a coffin? When Job was in deep despair and thought he was dying he said...

    Work out your own Salvation?

    That is a Christian's badge of identification. Their faith perseveres to death. It is a statement of fact, the essence and quality of a soul whose faith is authored and finished by God. As the Bible identifies Christians another way: "by their fruit, you will know them"; we persevere because the...

    14 IRRESOLVABLE CONTRADICTIONS WHICH RESULT FROM A LITERAL RICH MAN AND LAZARUS

    @Phoneman777, your whole thread is flawed Jesus did not make up a fictitious story about an abstract realm and Abraham who we know is a real person! Parables DO NOT include specific names of real people, like Abraham, nor his spiritual location. It is also clear that the Rich man and Lazarus...
