This judgment is not to determine who is saved and who isn't. The only ones at this judgment will be Christians and the purpose is to determine what rewards they earned by their works after they were saved. According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a...

Somewhere is this thread someone asked how the different races originated. The answer is that there is only one race, the human race. How Many Races Did God Create?

Genesis 1:26 says, "Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” The Hebrew word for...

This post shows the lengths some will go to to reject the Trinity.

Genesis 1 tells us that God created the human race. Genesis 2 identifies the humans he created in Genesis 1.

None of the children ate of the fruit. Adam and Eve were expelled from the garden so they had no access to it. But they all suffered the results. They were born sinners and all eventually died. And Genesis says nothing about elves. Cain married one of his sisters. Where did Cain get his...

When we read the Bible in English we are reading a translation and sometimes a word used in a translation doesn't have exactly the same meaning as the word used in the original language. Here is how the ESV translates that command. And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and...

Luther protested the teachings that had been added to those taught by the Bible. The Trinity was not one of these added teachings.

The word Trinity is never found in the Bible but the teaching is. The first indication is in the word for God, elohim. The word is plural but it is used with a singular verb, showing that God is one and yet more than one. The Jews may have actually believed in the Trinity in New Testament...

Many who deny the deity of Jesus say that he never claimed to be God. It is true that there is no record of Jesus ever saying the words, “I am God,” but many of the things he said were in face assertions of his deity. For example, there is this statement in his Sermon on the Mount. Blessed...

Welcome to the forum.

The Bible's instructions regarding prayer apply on to churches. It says nothing about how secular institutions such as city councils may conduct their meetings. (There are many who think city councils have no business praying at all, but that is a different issue entirely.)

Most of us pray regularly for the churches we attend. It is equally important for us the pray for the forums we belong to.

I will pray that your wife will get well.

Therefore, as to the eating of food offered to idols, we know that “an idol has no real existence,” and that “there is no God but one.” For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth—as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”— yet for us there is one God, the Father, from...

The sons of Ham: Cush, Egypt, Put, and Canaan. The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan. Cush fathered Nimrod; he was the first on earth to be a mighty man. He was a mighty hunter before the LORD. Therefore it is said, “Like Nimrod a...

In the 1700s most citizens believed the Bible and made at least some attempt to live by it. That isn't the case today. Having a centralized government would not help this situation. The government would be run by people who reject God's standards and would probably do more harm than good...

I will pray that God will make a way for these Bible to be placed in the hands of those who need them.

Nimrod died long before Esau and Jacob were born.

He will come riding a white horse. Now I watched when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures say with a voice like thunder, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, a white horse! And its rider had a bow, and a crown was given to him, and he came out...
