    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @Behold, Do you have anything to say about the topic though? And not specifically me? You definitely disagree with a lot of things I’ve talked about for the past several years and that’s okay. This topic is not about me; and it’s weird you say these things for sure they aren’t all correct...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    So many people believe today that the Bible is considered either “Gods words or The Word of God.” It’s not true… it’s a collective of God and his people their doings and happenings. It’s simply “The Bible.” Nothing more. If you disagree with an interpretation all of sudden you’re going against...

    Universalism is a dangerous doctrine

    “And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.” ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11‬:‭6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    ONCE….ONCE….(OSAS)….ONCE!!!

    Hello to both of you, Just something I’m reminded of; not that I always do so; however God knows what every person does personally. 16 Rejoice always, 17 pray continually, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 19 Do not quench the Spirit. 20 Do...

    What is the basis for the unbeliever's condemnation?

    Hello to the original poster, Unbelief; no desire to seek the things of God. There are three resurrections, resurrection of condemnation, resurrection of life, and resurrection which is better than the normal. There are two descriptions of destinations in Heaven which all go to, be it outside...

    ONCE….ONCE….(OSAS)….ONCE!!!

    Hello @Ernest T. Bass, It’s just up to people to decide for themselves. I agree with you concerning being saved is a condition which is reacted upon within the heart to look and seek the Father in heaven and to worship him in spirit and in truth. He rewards those who do so. There is and always...

    Universalism is a dangerous doctrine

    It’s most certainly a debated topic concerning is God real or not. No one can truly prove that Yahavah/God exists at all and therefore this topic is debated. There are only evidences which suggest God exists; and it’s faithfully believed he does. When it comes to universalism, I believe it is...

    Universalism is a dangerous doctrine

    Hello @Reggie Belafonte, It’s all on faith that God exist. You can’t prove him to be real. All the best to you and yours. People who do wrong typically know when it’s a crime they have committed that they are guilty. Yeshua has taken care of the sin. Whether or not they choose to go to Yahavah...

    Why you don't have to speak in tongues - Or do you?

    Hello to the original poster, While I don’t believe people speak tongues as it was in the day of Pentecost anymore. I tend to believe there are two different languages. An earthly language and a heavenly language. One where you speak by terms of reference to materials to make a point, and then...

    Sinless perfection is easy

    To anyone, I remember my mother when she wouldn’t sleep well hoping for a neighbors car to blow up. Was that selfish? Of course it was. It’s the flesh. Though she was mad in those instances or when the dog wouldn’t stop barking. Did God love her any less than?

    Sinless perfection is easy

    Hello @Lambano, Could this help the situation? “I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything"—but I will not be mastered by anything. See I can do anything I want. With a relationship with the Lord Yeshua being with in me, by...

    Reproving a sinner is not “hate speech”

    Hello Wrangler, Whatever you wanna do.

    Universalism is a dangerous doctrine

    Hello @Reggie Belafonte You may have a differing view. However Jesus has taken care of sin, otherwise he did not take care of sin. He took care of sin on behalf of the world, and on behalf of his Fathers will to do so. All it takes is faith in the LORD GOD, and seeking the Father in spirit and...

    What Is The Difference Between Liberal, Conservative and Fundamentalist Christians?

    Hello Godsgrace, Well, Im apolitical. And I believe that there is Liberty in Christ Jesus. I'm part of a group known as Christian Ultra-Libertarians for Truth, which has no affiliation with political stances. I could be a mixed bag of all three. I like working a job, I like paying taxes, I like...

    ONCE….ONCE….(OSAS)….ONCE!!!

    Hello @Taken, Once saved, always saved is simply a man-made doctrine. People can and do walk away from God. Just because someone choose to have faith, that doesn’t even mean they are truly saved to the kingdom of heaven. Being saved to the kingdom of heaven is one of faith, and the works of the...

    Once Saved, Always Saved?

    Hello to whom it may concern, Until we become united in maturity, there will always be division. If a person wants to believe once saved always saved; by all means. It doesn’t mean it is true; but I’ll love those people none the less. I don’t believe it’s true, because even Jesus talks about...

    Reproving a sinner is not “hate speech”

    Hello @Scott Downey I’ve heard some people being saved since they were children and then they go end up molesting children. I’ve heard some people get saved later on in life. It’s most certainly a choice; and picking on people is not a way to go about it. You can tell them something is wrong...
