    Open rebellion against God

    Belief in the omniscience of God is based on the Bible. What human philosophy teaches this?

    Marriage in God's eyes

    What Roman heritage? Here is how he describes himself: If anyone else thinks he has reason for confidence in the flesh, I have more: circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the law, a Pharisee. Philippians 3:4,5 ESV He was a...

    Praying about abortion

    Yes, we might be able to abolish abortion but the need for a second birth will still remain.

    Open rebellion against God

    God is omniscient. He knows everything that happens and everything that will ever happen in the future. It seems to me that your errors are the result of not understanding this fact.

    Praying about abortion

    The battle against abortion is both political and spiritual. We need to change laws so that unborn babies are protected, but we also need to pray for all who are involved in this activity. We must pray that women who are considering abortion will receive the help they need to give birth to...

    How will we know the real Jesus from a false prophet?

    After Jesus ascended to Heaven from the Mount of Olives an angel told the apostles he would return just as they had seem him go. Here is how his return is described by Zechariah. Then the Lord will go out and fight against those nations as when he fights on a day of battle. On that day his...

    Open rebellion against God

    When you become a Christian God makes an irrevocable choice to save you. He knows every sin you have committed or will ever commit and he forgives all of them. We cannot believe in Christ unless the Holy Spirit enables us and it would require the help of the Spirit to reject him.

    Open rebellion against God

    Here is how the ESV translates 1 John 3:9: No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. Every child of God is fully born again and regenerated, but while on this earth he still has his old nature...

    Open rebellion against God

    Repentance does mean turning away from sin but those who have repented still have the old nature which is attracted to sin. Sometimes a believer will yield to that nature and go back to living a sinful lifestyle. If he is truly saved God will not allow him to go on that way but will bring him...

    “who endures ~~~~ is saved”

    Many people interpret this statement to mean that we must endure to be saved. This interpretation introduces works into the salvation process and the Bible says salvation is entirely a work of the grace of God. We are not saved because we endure but rather we endure because we are saved...

    The "News" Media

    What evidence do you have that Jewish billionaires control the networks? Satan hates Jews because they were the people through whom the Messiah came into the world, so he is the source of antiSemitism as well as of lies.

    The "News" Media

    Satan is the ruler of this world so it is no wonder that he controls most of the news media. But don't forget that God has placed limitations on what he can do. His followers have been able to start media that are free of Satan's control. Here are two of them: Providing clarity to the news...

    Rapture 2020: the Countdown to the End

    What is happening now is that the Holy Spirit is empowering believers to preach the message of salvation. The began at Pentecost and will continue until the church is removed by the rapture. We don't know when this will happen. The final words of Jesus before his ascension, recorded in Acts...

    Rapture 2020: the Countdown to the End

    Here is the answer Jesus gave to that question. "You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” Luke 12:40 ESV The book of Revelation tells us what will happen but not when it will happen. We must always be prepared.

    Rapture 2020: the Countdown to the End

    Jesus said that no one knows when he will return. Rather than speculating about something he said we won't know, we should be studying the Bible to find out how he wants us to live. The site linked to in the OP contains a revelation supposedly from God with no scriptural supports. We are...

    Reincarnation

    I only know one time the apostles may have suggested a belief in reincarnation and that is when they asked if the man born blind was suffering for sins he had committed. Jesus clearly told them their belief was wrong so he never supported belief in reincarnation. John the Baptist could not...

    Reincarnation

    All I am saying is that I believe what the Bible teaches. These people had been resurrected and had bodies. They were not disembodied souls. Jesus is lord both of the living and the dead. He has a right to speak to any of his subjects at any time. The transfiguration did not involve the use...

    Reincarnation

    The goal of councils was to preserve Christianity by condemning the false teachings that had infiltrated it. When this council was held there might have been false teachers teaching reincarnation just as there are many false teachers in the church today, but the councils decision showed that...

    What does this verse tell us about When Abraham was born

    I don't understand the question. I don't see any contradiction between what Abraham said and what Stephen said, so we should believe both of them? And what does any of this have to do with how old Terah was when Abraham was born?
