I appreciate your witness for the Lord with your words. However, you said this: "Faith is not a one time event. It is a walk." Faith is is a walk, for sure, but it is also a one-time event at justification: we are justified by faith. And yes, we 'walk by faith, not by sight' too. Peace.

I was 42 years old when I was converted, and believed, the Lord Jesus. If I had died immediately, then I was eternally saved from the wrath of God.

No, I don't. But, your statement "Continuous surrender to God is only possible by asking Him to help us surrender" seems to indicate that one cannot be saved unless they continue to surrender to God until death. So, if you get Alzheimer's and do NOT continue to surrender to God, what happens...

But, if you get Alzheimer's disease you may not 'really want it' (continuous surrender to God) any longer. Then what? No salvation?

Then you worship a physical object; an idol, not Christ.

(Jerome, Catholic saint, c. 342-347 – 30 September 420) "The presbyter is the same as the bishop, and before parties had been raised up in religion by the provocations of Satan, the churches were governed by the Senate of the presbyters. But as each one sought to appropriate to himself those...

That's 2/3's of a pun: P U !

So, are you making a Prophecy? Strong opinion? You might be right, though!

Was Jerome lying when he said this: "The presbyter is the same as the bishop, and before parties had been raised up in religion by the provocations of Satan, the churches were governed by the Senate of the presbyters. But as each one sought to appropriate to himself those whom he had baptized...

"unless you invoke magic .. aka - direct intervention of God" I think you are blaspheming God, describing His direct intervention in this world as magic.

How is 'voting for Trump' seen as 'affiliating the church with the state' ? Romans 13:1 and 1Peter2:13 command the church to be subject to, and submit to, the governing authorities. Voting is a simple way to do that.

But, should we sin that grace may abound? :)

Does the Bible say we must be taught by 'their (the apostles)successors'?

"God always establishes order in obedience to hierarchical authority!" Is that statement a 'dogma'?

I think we are talking past each other. I'm just responding to this statement you made: "The Body of Christ is being prepared to provide a place for the Head [Jesus] of it to rest." The Church is not (as far as I can tell in Scripture) being prepared to 'provide a place for the Head (Jesus) of...

Because He did not say 'either or, or both'. He says 'In My Father's house there are many mansions', then He says twice He is preparing a place for his disciples.

You said: "The Body of Christ is being prepared to provide a place for the Head [Jesus] of it to rest. The Head, is ready... are we, the parts of the Body, ready to assume our proper role?" Isn't it more likely that Jesus has prepared a place for the Body of Christ (the Church) to rest, rather...

You said: " “Remember the Sabbath day,…" This is a good example of the commandment by the Apostle Paul telling Believers to not keep the Law of Moses (which includes the 10 Commandments). (Gal.3:11) "But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for “the just shall...

Your original post is an attempt to unite your religion with Christianity. It's a wonder to me that so many members of this forum still support your false teaching.
