Please describe biblical faith and what Im not understanding. On a side note, did you watch the video?

I consider works to have two, maybe three types: works of the flesh/following the Laws of Moses and works of faith following the law of Christ. Our commandment from the Lord is that we love one another---in action and practical help rather than just words. We feed hungry people. We give our...

I don't want to overthink it. I do want to say thank you. I can be mistrustful.

It's been a process but a blessing to accept that most people on here do not see me as an authority on Scripture, even if I quote the Lord Himself to back up my points. They will not read the Scripture I post and will jump right into correcting me as a misguided soul. It hurts the ego but...

God has absolute power over creation. His authority is absolute. He's our Father. Rejecting patriarchy or father-rule is rejecting God's design. I support biblical patriarchy. Masculinity is good and it protects and supports feminity, like the OP explained. Saying male leadership is bad is...

What made you send this? I looked at it. I'm only guessing but you seem concerned that my beliefs are legalistic. This commentary is emphasizing that salvation is a free gift. I believe that. I don't believe we had to do anything but believe to recieve salvation. And I believe we are seated in...

Hey guys

Loved the video. I felt encouraged. You said, "You can forsake the flesh long before it's taken from you." toward the end. Do you mean walking in the Spirit or sowing to the Spirit? This past three years, my husband and I have gone through a tough calling and suffered. But we know it means...

Hi! Good to see ya! Dollar Tree Bibles are pretty useful too

I like this. I feel like balance is missing too. We need faith and works, not just faith alone. I don't agree with Catholic doctrine, but they do a lot of good for their communities. They pay people's light bills. I'd keep their sense of charity but take a different approach to how church is done.

Have never used being a staff member to do anything around here. I speak the way I want and just happened to get a badge. I still plan on speaking as I wish, conscience allowing. I appreciate the honor but I'm not so in love with the badge that I'd avoid saying something I think is important.

God bless you and have a good night

Just saying Im not easily convinced and would rather talk about social gospel op things than cessationism. The amount of effort to convince me is not worth it. Not trying to move you either. Believe what you will. But I'm not moving myself.

I Appreciate the warning but I don't believe all modern healing is false and I don't believe those who believe in healing are not having enough faith that the cross is sufficient. This topic is one of the ones Im least likely to be moved on. Fair warning. I hope we can stay on topic

The great commission as well as further signs, miracles, and wonders. (I believe they still happen today)

If Im being honest, the Christian circles Im used to are so into "faith alone" and "its not about your performance" and avoiding "works based salvation" that I make sure to avoid saying anything of practical good I plan to do just to avoid a lecture. They will lecture me about the above and wet...

Jesus' ministry on the earth lasted three years if I'm not mistaken. He did quite a lot But He left us the Holy Spirit so we can be His hands and feet and reach people throughout the whole world. And I still believe signs, miracles, and wonders can be done in faith today. We can do the great...

In my experience with a lot of churches and Christian culture, we think Jesus did so well on earth that it's arrogant to think we can behave like Him or even follow His commands. But the Lord said we would do greater things. John 14:12 King James Version 12 Verily, verily, I say unto you...

I agree. 1 John 2:6 6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. We ought to love others not just in words but in practical help for our brothers and sisters in Christ as well as our neighbors. That's what it means to love the way Jesus taught.
