    Fully Surrendered to Christ

    I did not surrender for a few years after I had claimed to. I even went to a few different churches to ask Pastors why I did not have the comfort and joy that seemed apparent in others. The answers ran from "pray and submit" to the laying on of hands. Still nothing. Then, while working out of...

    FOR - YOU - WHO - CLAIM - YOUR BORN AGAIN

    Yep. Just as "saved" is presented in three different tenses.

    FOR - YOU - WHO - CLAIM - YOUR BORN AGAIN

    I see that you are willing to open up a topic that many are going to dislike. I'll bet you know that most everyone here will disagree.

    Why do Christians prefer their Churches segregated..

    It gets real complicated when we read what Jesus said in the book of John. Jn 17:6–9 I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. Now they know that everything that you have given me is from...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    That reason affected not only the Jews.

    How do conservative evangelicals reconcile their support for Trump with Trump’s sinful lifestyle?

    Your may certainly modify my post to suit your belief. However, those who are suffering this invasion along the border with Mexico don't take the failure so lightly. Those "sanctuary cities" are having to admit that this influx of illegals is a huge problem now. Perhaps, it is only those who are...

    What is speaking in tongues?

    Ever had such a bad day that you know you need to talk to Father, but don't know what to say? Any moaning or such sound that emanate from me are the best I can do. I would not call it a "language," but I think God knows my trouble.

    How do conservative evangelicals reconcile their support for Trump with Trump’s sinful lifestyle?

    Perhaps the real issue is that they don't have a way to fire someone for failing to do their jobs. Only the office that appointed this guy can remove him, and the office is not likely to do that. Impeachment proceedings simply put out there the fact that this guy is NOT doing his job.

    Is the Logos meaningful, or meaningless? - Depends on your view of Logos.

    Don't you think that your first statement is claiming to know the heart of someone? We should not claim that we can do something that only God can do.

    Is the Logos meaningful, or meaningless? - Depends on your view of Logos.

    Thank you for taking the time to post this. I like it, except for your quote that says that it starts with He. Logic is not a "he."

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    I do so much reading your posts, my sister. There is much harmony in our understanding. I have yet to come to a conviction regarding that thousand years you speak of, so I can't concur that people who have died will get a "second chance." But, that is not a show-stopper for me.

    What 'Unorthodox' doctrine has come into the church?

    On the topic of followers of Yeshua not having the spirit of God within them AND the question of the baptism formula, I offer evidence. Note that, if the triune baptism formula is a stated in our current bibles is required, then we have the Apostle Paul violating that requirement. Ac 19:1–7 And...

    What 'Unorthodox' doctrine has come into the church?

    I have learned over the years that people will believe what they want to believe until God changes their minds. What the early church believed is NOT what the Apostles taught. I'm certain that you have been told that it is for so long, that nothing will dissuade you. On the last day, we will...

    What Is "Predestination"? How Does It Shape Your Daily Life?

    Well, sir, you did not answer my question. Yahweh is not a god of confusion, nor is He a deceiver. He had Yeshua and His disciples warn us against being blotted out of the Book of Life. It is imperative that we don't make the scriptures say things that we want to be true.

    The Gospel of Reconciliation

    I guess if we do not let the Scriptures explain itself, we end up with a thread full of accusations and insults. I would think that it is a cause for disappointment to Yahweh to see some of these conversations. Hopefully, this small explanation helps someone with getting the "big picture" of our...

    What Is "Predestination"? How Does It Shape Your Daily Life?

    Would it not be senseless for God to tell us of how people will fall away and what the penalty is if it were impossible to do? If we use scripture for understanding, I'll help by providing some here: Matthew 7:21 ESV “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven...

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    I am really happy to read your posts Aunty Jane. I would surmise that God has given you much understanding - enough that you have not accepted the doctrines of man. For those who want to know what our available copies of Scriptures say (as apposed to what commentaries say), I offer these...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    Somehow, I don't see her post calling for profanity. I'm able to talk to everyone with it.

    Is the Logos meaningful, or meaningless? - Depends on your view of Logos.

    Simply put, the word logos in capitalized only in the book of John. As others have stated, God created this world using only his breath in the form of commands. Logos are the instructions of Yahweh. Note that using the words "he" and "him" in the first 4 verses are mistranslations. It is not...
