    Oddly OSAS

    Jesus is the Author AND Finisher of our faith, therefore OSAS. That said, I used to interpret the concept of this Book of Life as only including those saved and that this book of eternally saved individuals existed in the beginning of Creation. In God's mind, since He knows all, that is true...

    We have to wait? Says who?

    Spiritually we have entered into the kingdom of heaven, we are members of heaven but not in it's location. Can you see what heaven looks like? No because you aren't there yet. If someone told you they were already in heaven, ask them to describe it, what it looks like. Some have been allowed to...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    No, talented writing I said, NOT SCRIPTURE! Writing as in commentary concerning only the Part 3 section that I pointed out. When you started quoting Maria's "Jesus said this and Jesus said that", I wasn't impressed, it presented contradictions to God's word. So the totality of what you...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    God's word is inerrant. Man did not mess it up, since the Holy Spirit inspired men to write exactly what was written. It wasn't contrived by man. God sovereignly gave us exactly and sufficiently His message. I don't believe Jesus said that! He is the Author of the Bible, therefore in complete...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    The work is riddled with anti-Simitism. That would be a major flaw; since God loves them and has not forsaken the Jews. Especially in the end times, a Jewish remnant (1/3) will be saved ( see Romans 11). And the arrogance that this "Poem of the Man-God" compensates for the inadequacies of the...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    Nah, I'll wait ... it's only a few more years. I am looking forward to the wonderful reality in Heaven, don't want to spoil it!

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    I used "as a ssshh ...". That is a figure of speech called simile - if you were a good writer you would know that and undersand. Doesn't that tell you something? 1 out of 1000 people take her stuff seriously. So you tried for 10 years to share her fiction - what a waste of time. Don't you have...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    I don't lie. Your secretive message implied that you don't want others to know who wrote these writings because most reject her as a genuine prophet. The Bible is complete as it is. We do not need extra fictionalized stories about Jesus! If God thought we needed more truth, He would have given...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    Sorry sir, the clandestine approach to posting material gathered from a false prophetess, Maria Valtorta, then PM-ing me about it (as a "Sssshhhh ... don't tell anyone") because of the backlash and rejections you have received in the past about her, just won't fly. I am not going to give you a...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    Okay, you are not using AI. Emmm ... Are your posts all your material (excluding the obvious Greek/Strongs stuff; or are you cutting and pasting theological writings of others? Just sounds like it has an Augustinaian style or even from Apostles creed early writing styles. >>> "It is Humanity...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    You evidently didn't read the second half of my post, in which I addressed the other usage of the word blessed. Are you using ChatGpT 4.0??? Nobody communicates like this, even modern professors with PhD. It seems you programed your AI to communicate by accessing early fathers (Augustine) and...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    Makarios means happy https://biblehub.com/greek/3107.htm Eulogemene The Greek word eulogemene (εὐλογέω) means to praise, give thanks, speak well of, or extol. It can also mean to be blessed or receive a blessing. In some contexts, giving a blessing can also mean to act kindly or provide...

    Why did our Redeemer need to be both God and Man?

    "Blessed" is really translated, happy. When we are blessed by God, He provides something for us that makes us happy, whether it is love, our salvation, a husband, a wife, children, provisions, talents, gifts, health, security, protection, it makes us happy, joyful. Mary was blessed like no...

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    Do you even know who the Restrainer is? The Holy Spirit, who lives in us, is the Restrainer. When He is taken out of the way, the Church is raptured at that moment. We're still here, He is with us. You know when this happens, in a twinkling of an eye - then all he'll will break loose. Anyways...

    Nice, this whole post is filled with false accusations. I won't even dignify them with a response - we're done.

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    Absolutely, but Jesus has imputed his righteousness into believers. And we have the Holy Spirit who does works of righteousness through us. But listen, that was a true when Jesus said it, for He had not yet fulfilled His mission and mankind had not been forgiven. After He died and rose again...

    I was faced with returning to the world, or going and serving Jesus and I returned to the world (lost?)

    I just wondered how did God call you to do work for Him and what specifically was it that you changed your mind about? We make decisions everyday about life, worldly things we do or don't do, serving or loving others or choosing not to. It is not just one call, it's many isn't it. Honestly, I...

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    I think that is a true statement. What's wrong with that? Let's dissect it. What are some common truths in all religions? Love; Compassion; Kindness; Respect; Forgiveness; Empathy; God created everything; The Golden rule; Concepts of good and evil, Belief in freedom of thought and expression...

    attacking another denomination are included in this rule.

    No offense here, I was defending the Catholic church/Pope but I'm not Catholic. We ha e peoole on this forum who have a vendetta against the Catholic Church/ Pope and are demonizing them - which is wrong! They are part of the Body of Christ. Liberalism has entered into the Church, but I have...

    Chat GPT ADMITS ...

    We may have lost sight of those tribes, but God has not! In Rev. 7, we see God marking 144k (12k decendants _ male virgins _ from each of the original 12 tribes). These new Christian Jews will evangelize a remnant Jewish population - 1/3 ( 5 million) during the Great Tribulation which is nearly...
