J You should use the "Reply" button down on the right hand corner. It's the only way people will see your reply to them... There are three types of death. Physical death Spiritual death (before we know Jesus) Eternal death ...if we die lost, we will be dead forever. If we die saved, we will...

Well said! Can you show me how to like a post. I've clicked on like button but all it says "you like" Thank you

The above is for ozspen. I'd like to understand how you've come to believe in annihilation (annihialism?) How do you understand the word "die" as in "For in Adam all die..." Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is...

You are welcome. Sometimes I don't make myself understood.

Mark 4:30-34 must be read in light of Mark 4:10ff. A parable does not necessarily begin with, “the kingdom of God is like...” A parable is an earthly story with a spiritual / heavenly meaning. This makes the whole Bible a parable as it is the story book of God to mankind, therefore the Bible...

To borrow your words: "there might be no one learning, but that does not mean that the teaching was not there to see." Or given (my words). To God Be The Glory

I never said the mark of a true believer is to teach. What I did say was when a true believer witnesses to unsaved people he is actually teaching, or declaring, or prophesying the word of God. If I neglected to say it this way, it is what I meant. If you read Joel 2:28-29, and Acts 2:17-18...

I believe there is a big difference between a believer and a true believer. In this sense, there are those who claim to be a believer and is actually not, and there are believers who actually have been saved by God. Salvation is God's program and only He can save, not by works of man, it s a...

The scripture references you offered are fundamental principles God laid out by which someone can be saved, however; in and of himself, man will never believe, unless God intervenes in his life! John 14:6 reads: Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the...

If you are truly a Bible student you would know Jesus spoke in parables and without a parable did He not speak (Mark 4:34). Reasons He spoke in parables?… Mark 4:10-12 10 And when He was alone, they that wwere about Him with the twelve asked of Him the parable. 11 And He said unto them, unto...

Indeed water can either save or destroy just as you have said in the example of the flood in Noah’s day. However, I believe God has a fundamental principle He wishes to teach in Matthew 14:27- 31. That is, if we don’t focus our eyes on Jesus we will surely falter and start to sink (get into deep...

I may be illiterate when it comes to computers, but not about the things of God. If I understood you correctly, yes, please, by all means, show me how to back quote. I'll be waiting for this answer before I reply to your post #1198. To God Be The Glory

I finally got you to agree... on something. Jokes aside, it was good to discuss things with you. BTW, there is not suppose to be a question mark after "Who is like God." The term is a definite declaration. But I've used other terms, like "Who assuredly is God?" To God Be The Glory

The word “could” was the wrong choice of word. Have you ever done a word study on the word “el” which is associated with names in the Bible that means God in Hebrew? Not sure in Greek. I’m confident if you had you will find that the name Michael (Mi-cha-el) means who is like God. For example...

FYI, the reason people do not understand how to read Scriptures is because they do not know how to connect the dots, that is, by comparing scripture with scripture. Most of all, they do not understand that Jesus spoke in parables and without a parable He did not speak. A parable is an earthly...

Why do you say stupid things? Didn't you know that although Jesus was 100% man Scripture says He is without sin?! Really? Are you saying you know more than God? Are you saying the terms that God used No, Not One in Psalms 14 and Romans 3 does not mean each and every one? Now I heard...

I'm glad Matthew 3:17 is just your opinion, besides it has nothing to do with my post. If you have anything to say about water baptism then say it and I'll gladly entertain your comments or questions. To God Be The Glory

Thanks for your response. However, I see another point of view on your example about Peter sinking into the ocean. Peter was not in view at the saving of eight in the flood. When we do not focus our eyes on Jesus at any time we will always get into trouble and will begin to falter and sink...

True. But before they became righteous they were FOOLS as Verse 3, and as in Romans 3. Man by nature is a sinner and his heart is desperately wicked as assessed by God. This is why we so desperately need a savior! No one will call upon the name of the Lord unless God intervenes in his life...
