    Why I Am a Cessationist

    It is kind of like saying Michael is on vacation too - since the 1st Century ... no need for him ... no spiritual battles going on. The Holy Spirit equips us, everyone throughout our lives in many ways we are unaware of to battle dark forces.

    Why I Am a Cessationist

    It's not about me. It is about the power of the Holy Spirit, miraculous things that took place then and now. To say that He doesn't empower people today with spiritual gifts would imply He doesn't need to - as if the world was not falling apart. We need His power more today than ever. So...

    Why I Am a Cessationist

    It seems I came in a little too late on this thread, you seemed to have abandoned it. I know you put lots of effort into it; so I am not asking to reopen it, nor will I refute it with a lengthy rebuttal. Just a couple questions about 1 person: What is your opinion of Reinhard Bonnke, an...

    "Pastors" that lead church service wearing blue jeans, casual shirts and base ball caps.

    The perfect payback for enslaving the Jews for 400 years would be to have them make a couple billion robes of the finest Egytian cotton for us and have some gold Oriental silk sachets to go with that for Himself?

    "Pastors" that lead church service wearing blue jeans, casual shirts and base ball caps.

    How nice, you resort to a slanderous attack when you are caught in an error, rather than admit it. Christ' righteousness was imputed to all who are born again, but some of us still lean on that fleshly pride sometimes. We're done.

    Because I don't think Jesus likes suits and ties! The multitude in heaven wear white robes ... better get used to it, no suits and ties in heaven.

    "Pastors" that lead church service wearing blue jeans, casual shirts and base ball caps.

    If you interpret dressing up in your Sundays best as an example of your glory to God, that is shallow. Glorifying God is more about your love and obedience. Yes, Solomon had some nice clothes but God dressed the fields with more splendor and beauty. Didn't imply this had anything to do with...

    I said: >> Change your attitude, cause we were all like dirty rags to God regardless of the clothing we wear.

    THE NEW EARTH

    The Bible teaches much of what you summarized; BUT there are a few discrepancies that I noticed. Jesus was always divine. The Pre-incarnate Lord was, is and is to come Lord Almighty. He is the great "I AM", Who spoke to MOSES. He introduced Himself not definitively; but through time would...

    "Pastors" that lead church service wearing blue jeans, casual shirts and base ball caps.

    What do you think Jesus and the disciples looked like and their attire? They likely only had one cloth robe that they slept in _ outside _ on the ground _ and sweat in. Certainly they rinsed off in the rivers and lakes but did not have the cleansers, bleach we have to wash clothes. Sure they...

    OSAS : Gnostic Heresy

    OSAS simply comes down to Jesus' promise, "Believe in Me and you will be saved." He is the Author of our faith. So He wrote the story of your salvation. What is faith? It is a gift, with certainty attached to it, His assurance of things hoped for. We believe that we ARE SAVED, NOT that maybe we...

    The Wheel of Life

    Do the math! 1656 years. I appreciate all that God gives, all that us good because I know what is evil.

    Is someone attempting to steer elections and presidential candidates or what?

    Wow, so it's totally become a Left Wing Machine. If Trump became president, he would have to dismantle the whole FBI and start fresh. "The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has around 37,000 employees, including special agents and support professionals. The FBI has hundreds of locations...

    The Wheel of Life

    God's law to not eat of the tree is not a vast knowledge of good and evil. They were just created, they knew little about anything. Imagine waking up to this world as if your memory was erased, except your ability to communicate. Your newborn comes out of the womb, opens his eyes and know...

    Isaiah warned us of the times we are now living in!

    Yes, these scriptures are applicable. As to all the woes, are they not applicable to many times in history? History repeats itself. These familiar warnings are certainly applicable to these times as well. Lawlessness, confusing "good for evil and evil for good" is a red flag we see waving in...

    The Book Of Life

    Having humanity ( many billions) in his plan, he began with Adam, then Eve, then Cain, Abel ... We can imagine a vast blueprint of the world for all time, and the act of creation one day at a time.

    The Wheel of Life

    No, that is the wrong way to look at it. Wanting us to know good and evil is not desiring us to sin. His desire is for us to choose good over evil and to learn from our mistakes. We point out, wrongs, evils, bad behavior and the pit falls to avoid to our children, and realize we cannot shelter...

    The Book Of Life

    It has always been perplexing to me as to when this " Book of Life" existed. Well, let's say it was in God's mind.m to vreat billions of people, but was it necessary fir Him to have each one of us in mind? Should we think that before Creation, this spiritual Book of Life containing billions of...
