BoL, I’m surprised you knew about Mt 18:15-17. I guess I have to take it with a grain of salt that unsaved men can sometimes understand scriptures. I’ll probably get reprimanded by many by what I’ve just stated but I follow the criteria set forth in 1Jo 4:1. I was about to post with Matthew 18...

Matthew 19:27; Mark 10:28 Jesus answers: 29 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God’s sake, 30 Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life...

You should be a politician and you would probably make a good one not being biased. I on the other hand rests on the promises of God. Scripture says, I am not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers. Jesus said, in this world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the...

God spoke in parables and without a parable He did not speak (Mk 4:34). A parable is an earthly story with a heavenly/spiritual meaning. This makes the whole Bible a parable. When John the Baptist cried, “Behold Jesus the Son of God which takes away the sins of the world.” No. John did not say...

Let us test this conclusion against the Bible. If you mean the Catholic Church then I don’t buy it. If however, on the other hand, you mean THE Spiritual Church (which consists of all true believers, Ac 2:47) that Christ has been building since Pentecost almost 2,000 years ago, then I agree...

Thanks for your post. It made my day. I've been laughing all day. What a wonderful Christian humor. To God Be The Glory

I don't believe the Holy Spirit will not give truth when asks by a believer. Jesus promised He will send another comforter and guide us into all truths. There is only one truth and one Gospel and that is circumscribed by the Bible! Not by the Catholic Church and that is the difference. To...

Whether venial/mortal does not make any difference. Sin is sin! "The wages of sin (singular) is death." "For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all." James 2:10 To God Be The Glory

Thank you for those kind words. All glory belong to the Holy Spirit. Before I open my Bible I pray to the Holy Spirit to open my spiritual eyes to all truths, because I know nothing, teach me. And, you are most welcome. I hope and pray I can continue to do the same with future posts. To God Be...

My answer to the OP is: No! It is not possible for a believer to lose salvation. If anyone can lose salvation after becoming saved that means God does not have the power to save, for the wages of sin (singular) is death. In other words, it only takes one sin to send anyone in hell. If there...

Twinc, Contrary to your statement above Jesus said, "With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible." Matthew 18:1-6;10 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? 2. And Jesus called a little child unto Him, and...

In other words..."So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" Ro 10:17 We (adults) must have a child-like trust to believe Bible. To God Be The Glory

1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him and he cannot sin because he is born of God. Does this mean a saved person cannot sin after conversion? No. Before I became saved both in my body and soul I delighted in my sin, but when I became saved...

Carnal Christians? There is no such a thing as a carnal Christian! Either an individual is saved or not. There are none in-between (Ro 7:14; 8:7). ScottA. said: "The children of folly are many, but the children of Abraham even more, like the sand of the seashore." The above of...

All unsaved people have the mark/name on their right hand or in their foreheads to distinguish them from believers. Revelation 13:16-18 reads: 16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that...

If I wanted to study about do sheep drink from running water I would go to a sheepherder and ask for his expertise. And, if I want to learn about the things of God I will go to the Bible for its' expertise. To God Be The Glory

It would have served better if the topic were such as: "Do believers (sheep) drink from the water of the Gospel (running water)? My answer would still be the same as I have posted in Post #11 To God Be The Glory

What does the title "Do sheep drink from running water?" have to do with the Gospel message? Is not this thread a Christian forum? To God Be The Glory

SheepWhisperer, The term “living water” cannot be understood literally. It must be spiritually discerned, For example, Jesus said: “ Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s.” Likewise, “The Lamb of God...” must be understood...
