Hello @justbyfaith, Please be careful what you are saying, for you are handling the word of God concerning God's only Begotten Son. Consider the position you say you hold on this forum , and hold your tongue, for you are standing on holy ground. Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello @Hidden In Him, I just saw the words of Simeon, referring to the Lord as a 'sign' in Himself to Israel, but one which would be spoken against, and all thought of any other signs flew out of the window. So, forgive me for confusing you, my friend. Though I don't know how to answer #86...

'Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it...

'Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.' (Jude 1:21-23)

Hello @April_Rose, There are a lot of things said and done in the name of the Lord, which must grieve His heart. We have all sinned and come short of the glory of God, and we all need a Saviour. We are to hate the sin but love the sinner. Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello @Hidden In Him, And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon Him.' And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had...

'And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.' (Jude 1:6) Hello again, @Devin Wintch, Where we disagreed was as to who those 'spirits' were. You say that the...

Hello @Devin Wintch, I am sorry to hear your response: for a glance at the context of 1 Peter 3:19 within it's context should be enough to make you stop and consider your thinking on this. It is not a matter of having a realistic approach, but of believing what is written as being the word of...

'By which (The Holy Spirit) also He went and preached unto the spirits in prison;' (1 Peter 3:19) Hello @Devin Wintch, With respect, the 'spirits' in prison were the angels that fell in the days of Noah, as the context reveals. I do not believe it was the gospel that He preached unto them...

Hello @Hidden In Him, My thoughts are continuing on this subject, so this is the second of two responses by me to your post (above). * There were 'signs' which were prophesied by God through the Old Testament prophets concerning the ministry of our Lord, which He quoted to John's disciples...

'He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times? A...

Hello @Mayflower, You asked Backlit for the reference he quoted, just in case he misses your post, here it is:- 'I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, 'He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.' Now I tell you...

Hi there, @Hidden In Him, Thank you for coming back to me on this. Your earlier post (reply#64), to which I replied in (reply#67) caused me to come to an abrupt stop:- * Would you please explain this to me, so that I can know how to proceed. Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

'Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might...

Hello @justbyfaith, With respect, that really will not do. Surely it is a form of self-deception to make ONE be TWO? During the Acts of the Apostles, there were two baptisms, ie., water and Spirit, the type and the reality. The reality has always been the baptism of the Spirit, and when the...

Hi there @justbyfaith, I can't believe I am reading this!! You can't be serious. How do you justify that? o_O

'The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired Him that He would shew them a sign from heaven.' (Mat 16:1) Hello @Hidden In Him, I agree it is good to discuss these things together, even if we do not always agree. The Greek Interlinear Bible says regarding 'a sign from...

Hello Jay Ross, (Re. reply#56) Thank you for your advice, but in regard to Matthew 16:27,28 - 17:2-13, I believe the wording of 16:27,28 naturally leads on to what follows in chapter 17. Chapter breaks, verse breaks, subject heading and punctuation, necessary as they are, are all of man, and...

@Behold @justbyfaith @Truther @Pearl Hello there, Please don't take this personally, for it is not intended so. I hear people talking about Baptism, and it's purpose, with little recourse to what the Scriptures actually have to say about it. Also no one ever seems to take into consideration...

Re: Matthew 16:28:27-28 & Matthew 17:1-13; Mark 9:1-10; Luke 9:27-36; 2 Peter 1:16-20 Hello @Jay Ross, 'For the Son of man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels; and then He shall reward every man according to His works. Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here...
