    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    *** Nancy, it is a common error that God changes the sinful flesh to be non-sinful flesh. Paul, in Romans 7 never said he became perfect after his salvation. When a person starts thinking they are changed and do not sin any longer in the flesh they become self-righteous and soon forget that...

    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    *** God knows that mankind is living in sinful flesh and He also knows we can not stop sinning by our efforts. Therefore He has issued the GOSPEL OF GRACE. A gospel where He has paid for all of mankind's sins, past, present and future. Pay attention ==== the only sin that condemns in this age...

    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    *** No one that is saved can ever fall away because of sins of the flesh. Why? Because they believe, have faith in, trust in, have confidence in the fact that Jesus has already paid for all the sins of the world on the cross. The way I know that the RCC is the anti-christ is that their...

    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    *** I can explain it but you will most likely not believe it because you want it to mean only what you think it means to further your religious beliefs. You look for the meaning to be that you have to earn your salvation by what you do in your religion. You refuse to believe and trust in God's...

    Does Your Church Teach About the Rapture(Catching up) Heaven, Hell, Prophecy?

    *** Really??? Everyone in a religion puts their faith in their religion and that includes you. But according to the scriptures we are to place out Faith In God, not a religious church ran by men who can deceive themselves. Ps 2:12 12 Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way...

    Does Your Church Teach About the Rapture(Catching up) Heaven, Hell, Prophecy?

    **** Your statement above is about yourself. You put your faith in the C Church and its doctrines then turn around and blame others for putting their faith in their churches which are made up of precepts and traditions. LOL What solace (comfort) can you fine in thinking you will be here on...

    Are God’s CHOSEN living up to His expectations?

    What does God expect???? He has already said, and knows, that those living in sinful flesh will, and do, sin. That includes everyone. That is why He (GOD) paid for all the sins of mankind on the cross. But if a person does not give Him credit for His payment by believing and trusting in it...

    Hard Truth For Non Tongue Speakers

    My comment; Let us put 1 Cor. 14:1-10 in context. Please note that in verse 4 it says, "He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself," Also note that in verse 6 it says, "But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation...

    Hard Truth For Non Tongue Speakers

    Cor 12:28-31 28 And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues. 29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? 30...

    Hard Truth For Non Tongue Speakers

    Talking in Tongues: A BIBLE STUDY I have taken the following verses out of the NKJ Bible that mention speaking in tongues. I will make comments after each group. My comments are my opinions about what they mean. You have the right to disagree but what I am posting is what I believe based...

    Does Your Church Teach About the Rapture(Catching up) Heaven, Hell, Prophecy?

    *** 1 Thess 4:16-18 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in...

    Calvary Denied It Entrance Into The New Covenant (so how did it get past the door?)

    Rom 14:4-13 4 Who are you to judge another's servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand. 5 One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 He who...

    Baptism ?

    *** Thanks for your taking the ball and running with it. Replying to Mary is like taking to a fence post.

    Baptism ?

    *** We have been over this before and I don't think you will ever stop. Here are the verses: 1 Peter 3:20-21 20 who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved...

    Baptism ?

    *** Mary, I do not believe the child of God has anything to do with salvation except to believe and trust in what God (Jesus) has already accomplished on the cross. Jesus sent Paul with a message of salvation by the grace of God. We are to believe, have faith, trust in His work on the cross...

    The Saving Faith

    *** I have already should that James got the scriptures wrong. It is a fact that is in the scriptures. I didn't put them in the scriptures. To ignore then makes it possible to include the teachings of James into the gospel of grace. Absolutely ignoring the FACT that James said he was...

    Did Jesus leave us with a religion??

    *** You are right, it is all about the outward appearance. I am sure that if you look at what is called a Christian religion you will see that an empty religion is all that exists in most churches. The many posts and replies to posts are mostly about doing good works. Not much is devoted to...

    The Saving Faith

    *** I believe the FACTS that show James was in error about the FACTS. Your opinion is just that, your opinion. What I wrote was based on three obvious things that James wrote that were not true. --- Put your head in the sand and not see these obvious facts if you wish. I will not. The book...

    The Saving Faith

    *** Take another look at the book of James. James 2:20 21 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? (NKJ) FACT! No, Abraham was not! according to the...

    Did Jesus leave us with a religion??

    *** Perhaps to you it is an okay word meaning what you say it does. However, in today's world religion is not a binding to God. The world is full of religions and not all are about the God that shed His blood to pay for the salvation of all those that trust in what He did.
