Hi @quietthinker This is a different way of looking at what the 'good news' of God is, and I thank you for it. For it is true. This widens the gospel message to include all that the Lord Jesus Christ came to make known, and not just the message of salvation. Thank you for this new...

Thank you too, @MatthewG, for contributing to my thread. God willing, I shall return to take up this again and go further. With love in Christ Jesus Chris

Hello @Enoch111, Thank you for your contribution. I followed through on the thoughts you expressed regarding the necessity when preaching the gospel for a call to repentance. Looking up the use of the word, 'repent' with the use of a concordance. Yes, the word GOSPEL means 'Good News'. John...

Hello @Kaz, You need go no further than the title to know what the book of Revelation is about. It's God-given title is, 'The Revelation of Jesus Christ', and it concerns the second advent of Christ, and all that is associated with it. A knowledge of the content of the Old Testament Prophets...

Hello @Hidden In Him, Thank you for responding. I am following your thread on Gnosticism as you know, so hopefully will be better equipped to understand your stand as it progresses. Within the love of Christ our Saviour our Lord and Head. Chris

Hello @Amazed@grace & @Hidden In Him, The charge of 'Heresy' is a solemn one, and therefore I wish to stand in the gap and ask that you both come to an understanding on this. For I fear that either Amazed@grace has not expressed herself well, or @HiddeninHim is interpreting her words on the...

Hello @Enoch111, I do not doubt what you say, but I would be interested to have examples, if you would supply them please, of what you perceive to be their influences portrayed in modern translations, and the - 'glimpses of their teachings in the epistles', that you refer to? Thank you In...

Thank you, @HiddeninHim, I have read your posts, and will read the entries that you promise are yet to come on this subject (God willing): but I am not in a position to comment on it at the moment, for I am not seeing the whole picture yet. I love the quotations from the word that you have...

' ... Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.' (1Corinthians 1:25) 'And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that...

I have three grandsons and one granddaughter, too, and I am also fearful for them in this present climate. I would hope that they will be considerate of the feelings of others and treat them as they would wish to be treated themselves, with mutual respect and understanding. It is not a gender...

If I am wrong, @Wrangler, I am sorry. Grace and Peace Chris

Hello @Wrangler, Is this really what is happening? Are boys required to apologize for being boys? If so then I am sorry that is so. However, neither @VictoryinJesus, I believe, or I are feminists. Woman was taken out of man, and we are meant to be mutually co-extensive of each other, what...
