But yes. We should ultimately build our faith on God and His Word and not by things that are seen. While it is nice that there are evidences backing up our faith showing it is a reasonable faith, when the rubber meats the road, we really simply just trust God’s Word by faith. For without...

@Wynona Sorry to inform you, but Robert Gwin (who posted in this thread) is a JW (Jehovah’s Witness). If you are unfamiliar with the JW Religion, you can check out why it is unbiblical, and wrong here: CB Thread - Reasons Why the Jehovah’s Witness Religion is False. I hope this helps, and...

Beautiful selection of verses, Wynona. Thank you so much for sharing them.

Revelation 3:17 says: ”Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:” So I believe that the nakedness mentioned here is in reference to one being spiritually wretched...

I was aware of Ron Wyatt and his false claims for a long time now. However, there are great evidences that support the Bible, though. I have provided them in an overly simplistic blogger article I posted here (if you or anyone else is interested)...

At the end of Hebrews 10, it says the just shall live by faith. Then you read examples of that in Hebrews 11. Yes, there is a belief alone type faith mentioned in Hebrews 11:3. We are saved by a belief alone in our Initial Salvation, and God imputes or accounts righteousness to us in that event...

I don’t see this as some kind of Calvinism or anything. I see at as God opening the heart of a person to understand the message of God’s Word so they can either choose to accept it or reject of their own free will choice. Without this illumination or working of God upon their heart to see...

Uh, the text actually tells you what the unforgivable sin is plainly. It is compared to speaking bad words against Jesus. People commit blasphemy (speak bad words) against Jesus and that is forgivable. But to speak bad words against the Holy Spirit (as a believer) is never forgivable. It...

So in your experience, how many Christians have you actually seen misunderstand something because the word “ism” was attached to a word? Even the term “Sinless Perfectionism” can be Googled with reference to many articles on that topic (Whereby a person can understand what is being discussed)...

I believe that while Christians like them may not understand sin and salvation, they do at times get some things in the Bible correct. I find sometimes Christians like them challenge me to relook at the Word again. Many times they are wrong, but on occasion they have been right on certain...

No reason to divide over a minor issue like this. The importance is agreeing that Christ is God, and His grace saves and that grace leads us to live holy lives (glorifying Him).

Love this list. I would only add one point, though, sister. They cannot think they can sin and still be saved. Most Christians today believe you cannot lose or endanger your salvation by sin. Living holy would be useless if they have the wrong mindset on sin and in telling others about how...

Doctrine is one definition from “ism.” Doctrine is a teaching. Does God teach us to be perfect in the Bible? Yes. So it’s not untrue to use ”ism” attached to Sinless Perfection. Also, “ism” has multiple definitions. You cannot choose all the definitions for ”ism” as being one definition here...

Take comfort in the promise of 1 John 1:9, sister. If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. This is of course if we are on the path of holy living in being perfected in obedience by the Spirit (2 Corinthians 7:1)...

Believers need to be in obedience to God’s New Testament commands when they grow and mature in the Sanctification of the Spirit. This means obedience to all of God’s commands that are applicable to Christians (that come from Jesus and His followers). Believers cannot commit grievous sin and be...

Well said, Wynona. May God bless you for taking a stand for God and His Word (Which is good and right). BTW ~ I am glad God gave you the victory. Praise be unto the Lord Jesus Christ and His good ways.

To say that one does not endanger or lose salvation by sin is to deny Scripture itself. Jesus warned about how looking upon a woman in lust can cause our bodies to be cast into hell bodily. Some falsely believe you have to live in habitual sin in order to be condemned by that particular sin...

Serious Sin Can Separate Us From GOD Verses: [God said to Adam,] "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." (Genesis 2:17). [Eve said to the serpent,] "But of the fruit of the tree which is in...

The Scriptures will be fulfilled (See: Luke 21:22). God preserved His words in a book for us today. It’s a part of the fulfillment in Psalms 12:6-7, and Isaiah 34:16. One either has found the book of the LORD or they are trying to piece one together based on their own limited and amateur...
