I've got an opinion about anyone who doesn't align with the Word of God, showing they have no faith in its Author.

It's unwise to underestimate Satan. Even though he is a defeated foe, Satan is not taking his defeat lying down. Unregenerate humanity remains in bondage to Satan, who is enraged with regenerate humanity: Rev 12:17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the...

You could have found this out yourself: Quote: According to the premillennial view of the end times, the tribulation saints are the people who will come to faith in Jesus Christ during the tribulation period. The tribulation period is a seven-year time of judgments that will follow the rapture...

What do backsliders slide back from?

It's called backsliding. (Jer 8:4) "Moreover you shall say to them, 'Thus says the LORD: "Will they fall and not rise? Will one turn away and not return? (Jer 8:5) Why has this people slidden back, Jerusalem, in a perpetual backsliding? They hold fast to deceit, They refuse to return. (Jer...

These are Christian martyrs. (Rev 12:11) And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death. These are tribulation saints. (Rev 13:7) It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And...

Brilliant. Thanks.

I can't answer for the USA but in NZ anything that impinges on the right of a property owner or tenants to the fair use and enjoyment of their premises is an offence. We have local government authorities (called Councils) that can issue abatement notices. If these are ignored they initiate court...

Are you looking forward to being in heaven with your mother, for eternity?

Do you know @Netchaplain ?

Exactly The world is our mission field. Satan snatches the Word of God away from Wayside hearers before it can take root because he knows it exposes him and his plans to corrupt, deceive, and exploit.

The gates in question don't prevail against God's ekklesia, but those who aren't in God's ekklesia have no choice but to pass through them to Hades.

I've been steering the discussion away from the one dimensional determinist view that ignores the fact that those partaking of the grace of God can and do fall from it. It happens, and God allows it to happen. From cover to cover the Word of God speaks to the need to continue in faith or be cut...

Possibly for another thread, but Solomon . . .

There are many ex-Christians. Some have been in ministry leadership but have lost their faith. This thread is about them. They exist. The line "they were never really Christians" is a cop-out and a fallacy of logic, as previously stated. Just as a person can't fall from a roof if they never...

And here we are . . .

Whoa! The Bible speaks of falling from grace, not falling from the illusion of it. Gal 5:4 You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.

TBC He had all of the above going on. Yeah, the classic "wasn't really a Christian" is a fallacy of logic. Ex-Mormons were real Mormons. Ex-JW's were real JW's. Ex-husbands and ex-wives were real husbands and real wives. Ex-military personnel were real military personnel. Conditions apply...
