Mt 12:40 reads: “For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth”. Note how precise and clear scripture speaks of Jonah as being three days and three nights in the whale's belly and not in the...

KingJ, Any time that we arrive at a conclusion, we must test that conclusion to see if there is any more what Scripture have to say regarding that conclusion, and only then can we find truth. I have not isolated Ro 3:10-12 from Rev 3:20 for they go hand-in-hand. Scripture declares “for as In...

I have never said I was a Calvinist and if Calvin and I happen to agree on some things in Scripture, it is only because the meaning was given to us. At least it is for me as I go to the Bible knowing nothing. StanJ on 27 Mar 2015, said: “Eph 2:8-10 is not a contradiction to anything in...

Romans 10:8-13 must be read in light of the whole Bible. Romans 10:8-13 is the RESULT of salvation and NEVER the CAUSE for salvation. True, the call to the world is to believe in Jesus. However, “to believe”, “to have faith”, “to confess”…etc., are works that man does and therefore contrary...

Heretoeternity It seems to me it’s you who is doing the “cutting and pasting”. For example, the last paragraph of your posts almost contains the same words. If Jesus’ birthday is not on Dec. 25th, or if His Resurrection is not on Easter, and if Sunday (1st Day of the Week) is not the day...

FHII 1. Not all of Americans are Native Indians. 2. The States were once divided into the “North” and “South” States and went to war with each other. 3. God treated them not as separate but one people. I do not have a good command of the English language but you sure take the...

FHII In the U.S, when a person is from the East Coast and another from the West Coast, both are still considered American Citizens, likewise; Israel and Judah are both Jews. Israel was known as the “Northern Tribe” and Judah the “Southern Tribe” in the Old Testament. Therefore; both are...

Greetings as well Angelina, You are correct in your assessment of Mt. 19:3-6, however; in the last part of verse 6, Jesus is already saying there is not to be divorce or what God joined together let not man separate. Marriage between a man and a woman is like being shackled and welded together...

Since you have no idea I will tell you about myself. By the grace of God I have become saved through the washing of regeneration by the word. As I am a child of God who is still learning and teachable in all things pertaining to God I will lend my ears to anyone for the opportunity to be...

FHII I can only react to what you say. You still nave not given any scripture at all to back up your claims. If you really had any scriptures you would have jotted them down already. So please don't get touchy and defensive. Angelina Although I believe that everything in the Bible...

There are no grounds of any kind for divorce and remarriage while both spouses are still living! The only reason for remarriage is if one spouse die and either one can marry only to another Christian (I Corinthians 7:39). It's true God set up a temporary law in Deuteronomy 24:1-4 so He could...

1. But in the same sentence Jesus rescinded that law. 2. You answered your own question, because of the hardness of man’s heart.

The Bible is the “only” source book of truth. When we went to school and studied academic subjects we had a “common denominator”. That is, when we study about history, we confer with a history book as a guide, or when we want to learn about mathematics we look to an arithmetic book for...

How can anyone speak and things come to exist? Our minds are not created to understand such matters and for anyone to say otherwise the truth is not in him! Below is an excerpt taken from a Christian web site. I hope and pray will help. Philosopher J. S. Mill (not a Christian) summed up...

ATP, 2. That's correct. All of the believer's sins have been washed away by Jesus and the proof is in 2 Corinthians 5:8, also the gates of hell shall not prevail. 3. Your answer to question 3 however is only half true. Only in his soul existence does a believer become saved at the moment of...

KingJ, I think we are getting off topic with the OP but I believe that it is also essential to speak about the true nature of salvation to you and to those who are reading this thread. It is irrelevant which word came first whether “world” or “whosoever” but rather, what matters is how we...

KingJ, I guess you have never read or looked at Isa. 65:17; Ec. 1:11; 9:5 until now. You may believe that humans are not “things” but that was the language used in the texts above. I did not craft them but God. I think I know where you're coming from. You believe in a god that loves everybody...

“Only if you believe that there is truly a teaching of eternal torment and torture in the Bible! Many people do not understand the deeper meaning of Scripture passages because they read and critique Scripture like it's an ordinary book, instead of believing and obeying that the contents of the...

I have never believed in the terms, “agree to disagree” or “it is your opinion and not mine,” at least not in the things of God. I don’t really think you understood Romans 1:26-27. There, the term “God gave them over,” literally means God ‘gave up’ on them to do those things which were not...

Good insights on both of the administrator and moderator. Below are two scriptures that might help: “Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.” Re 16:15 “Abstain from all appearance of evil.” 1 Th 5:22 In...
