This gift is His New Covenant. He offers it freely, but we are told that to join with Him in this agreement. Jesus said: Jn 6:27–29 Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For on him God the Father has set...

No, it puts us back into confessing our sins and repentance. We must learn to be obedient to all the Jesus spoke for His Father.

It does. It stops our "greasy grace" idea.

Because nobody is "saved" until they endure to the end of their lives. While nobody can snatch us our of God's hand, we CAN "jump ship". I know there are those who claim that those dogs who return to their own vomit were not "saved" to begin with. There is zero ways to prove that. Those alive...

Instead of eternal, use "everlasting".

God has answered my prayers in the past with given me the things I asked for. Sometimes, His answer is "no." I will, however, as Him on your behalf as well. May God bless you with the answer you seek - in whatever form He gives it.

There are many reports now of suicide by those who had their "gender affirming care," and even now those who are suing the doctors who provided that care while they were under 18 years old. I think that those "success stories" are not indicative of whether their ideas were false, but rather...

In actuality, there is no man living today who can truthfully claim to speak FOR God. Myself, I speak to Him everyday. But, that is between me and God, and nobody is asked to accept it as truth, because it is not their business.

Perhaps we should look at the tenses of the verbs in passage? In all of these, our new birth happens when Yeshua comes back (we receive an actual new body). (Yes, I know that there are those who equate justification as the New Birth but I see only "raised up a new creature in Christ") But...

In my view, there is a battle going on between those who know that we are a sovereign nation and those who have created uncontrolled borders. I'm wondering if this will be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

My brother, my intent was simply to point out that, while we see and hear what others say and do, we should be gentle in our approach. Now Yeshua (Jesus) did speak harshly to the Pharisees, I believe that He had greater authority to do so. I respond "no" to the question of whether or not i am...

No sir, I don't think I have seen that one.

True, but it is the timing that is in question.

Scripture never contradicts itself. If we think that there is no way that we can now sin, I think scripture needs more study. After all, why would Paul even say this if we cannot fail? Php 2:12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more...

I have so many brothers and sister because we have been adopted by the family of Yahweh by our belief in His Son. Sadly, we segregate ourselves in many denominations - each one claiming that the other ones are incorrect in their theology. In attending and leading scripture study groups, I have...

Yes, the term Christian means something to me as well. However, I don't get to determine at which point someone qualifies. Every one of us has a "first day" of belief. (And that doesn't even get into what the word "belief" means to we who claim English as our native language.) At one point, we...

That type of thinking is so very common, because mortal man does not grasp the mind of Yahweh. The term "elect" makes us think of God casting votes for His favorite humans. Personally, my brain gets tired of attempting to figure out how Yahweh thinks. John 3:16 tells me that Yahweh calls...

I agree that Yahweh counts no follower of His Son by other than their belief and their actions. That is not in question. What we see in churches may well be man's inability to escape something called "group think." People want to be around those who hold the same beliefs -whether they are...

I am in denial of bibles that contains words not given in the source manuscripts. Ac 17:29 Being then God’s offspring, we ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man. Ro 1:20 For his invisible attributes, namely...

Thanks. I guess it is time for me to review all of this and, perhaps, find a thread already directed this way.
