Exactly! The Bible consist of only one truth. Why do you suppose there are so many different denominations in the world? Because every church comes with their own presuppositions. If we are reading the same Christian Bible why can't we arrive with the same conclusions? I will reiterate what...

31 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. 32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it...

Firstly, we do not get truth “out there” (in the world) but only through the scriptures. Bible says we are to compare scripture with scripture. “ All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine,...etc,” In other words, the Bible is its own dictionary and interpreter...

What is the defining mark of a Disciple of Christ? I believe the hallmark of a true believer is to Accept and Obey the Bible To God Be The Glory.

Paul is not saying he is the first to be saved under the doctrine of Grace, rather in all of the world, he considers himself to be the chief or number “one” as on top of the list of sinners, as you will. When John announced Jesus as the Lamb of God which taketh away the sins of the world, did...

I've actually not read the book. Why don't you tell me since it was you who brought it up

Oz, I am an unlearned man by any stretch of the imagination but I do know God is perfect in all that He does. He is infallible and the words He wrote that were circumscribed in the Bible are true. If you want to hang your life to a bunch of scholars that put together the book Codex Sinaiticus...

YOU ARE SO RIGHT. WHAT GREAT INSIGHT! Of a truth Mark did NOT write that portion of scriptures. GOD DID as Holy men of old spoke as God the Holy Spirit moved them. Sure it matters! God IS the author of the Bible. Are you serious? Are you saying you KNOW more than God? How arrogant!!! Let God be...

Yes He was and He did. The word baptism always mean to "wash" whether it is found in the Old or New Testaments. Jesus had to be baptized NOT because He became a priest in the Order of Melchizedek, as suggested, but Jesus had to be baptized so He could perform the duties of a priest set forth in...

I apologize, it seemed that some of your posts in the past indicated you belonged to a church that still feature miracles, signs, and wonders, and tongues Now that I have the full story, yes I believe God put the surgeon there at the right place, and at the right time. Nothing in this world...

You did not see Mark 16:17-18 as metaphorical either while we discussed the “new tongue”. I said the “new tongues” were synonym for the Word of God, and you said the “new tongues” are set forth in 1Corinthians Chapters 12; 13; and 14. We never got anywhere because the discussion stopped at this...

I was not agreeing with your understanding of James 5, I was merely agreeing that James 5 can be read either way literal or spiritual. I also said, ultimately God has in view the spiritual meaning, and then explained my reasons why. What has forgiveness of sins to do with petitioning God to...

Barrd I've already touched on this matter about people who are prayed for and get healed from their physical illness, and those who are prayed for and still die. According to your story, note how the surgeon prayed for God to guide his hands that the surgery may go well. I perceive that if...

I agree with you and that is exactly what Luke 5:31-32 has conveyed. This verse has a double meaning same as what you have alluded to in James 5:15. It can be read literally or metaphorically. Ultimately, God has in view the spiritual meaning, otherwise what is the point of the Great Commission...

Wormwood, You can agree with anyone you wish but that does not mean you have truth. Consensus does not make a thing right, however; I'm glad Stan gave the scripture reference of Mark 2:1-12 because that gave me a chance to study the scriptures further. The illustrations of the miracles Jesus...

Wormwood, As always, you are very eloquent in describing details, however I don't think you get the gist of what James 5 is really saying. Assuming you are correct, why would a sick person summon for the elders of the church instead of for a doctor, and why is the prayer of faith SAVE the sick...

James 5:13-15 reads: 13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms. 14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: 15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick...

Exactly! This is what Revelation 22:18 is trying to convey. The gift of prophecy ceased when the Bible was completed. Ultimately, Jesus is saying there is no more revelation in any form coming from Him. What God wanted us to know have all been written in scriptures. We do not get truth from...

Both the words of Jesus and Paul bring eternal life for the words they speak are derived from one Gospel which is the Bible. We read in 1Co 14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord...

The problem with those who do not believe in the doctrine of OSAS is because of their lack of understanding the concept of salvation. Not that they don't understand scriptures rather, they do not know how to connect the dots. God wrote extensively about salvation throughout the Bible and...
