Given humans do not really know who will be saved in the future or not, so with that perspective, this scripture is just a statement of fact, an idenity marker of who will have eternal life and who will not. If you are given the gift, then you will be in that group, the elect. It appears that...

That was discernment on your part ... I think? I posted 29 versions of John 3:16, one of the most popular and cherished a scriptures. My point was that they all pretty much said the same thing, they gave you God's truth. Your comment puzzles me though. You agree that there is truth in that...

Aionion, aionios have variable meanings When applied to our physical realm, that is temporal and will pass away, it means age-during or age-lasting, ages, lifetime, generation. When applied to God, His domain and our salvation, it means eternal. Sometimes you'll see everlasting and eternal used...

His inerrant word would be the original manuscripts Hebrew and Greek, but His truth is within all thise versions. Someone could pick up anyone of those versions and be led to Christ. Let's try half of thise versiiins of one popular verse - they all give the same message. ASV For God so loved...

Maybe you have the wrong perspective of what a Prophet is. A Prophet speaks forth the word of God whether it's past, present or future information. We tend to think of prophecy as future only, but it really is all inclusive. Psalms, songs about God, reflections, feelings expressed and inspired...

Jesus is the cornerstone that the builders rejected. He is God, the Word and the Bible His message to man. Faith comes by the Word of God. The purpose of life is to be reconciled to God through Christ and have a relationship with God. And so now we are the temple of the Holy Spirit and have...

Which is why we have an All Mighty God whom we trust will preserve His Word. I see that you have many doubts about the reliability of scripture. There are many books on the subject. Josh McDowell just updated his "Evidence that Demands a Verdict" book. Probably "The New Testament Documents...

I have and use about seven English translations and they all get the message across. For instance, concerning Romans 1:24-28, all versions give the same message. I use Biblegateway.com and can pull up 60 versions and examine each scripture. There's a lot of scholarship devoted to each one. I...

What is your view based on - was the question.

Word for word accuracy would be for certain in the original copy. That does not negate whether later copies weren't exactly copies! Copies of the New Testament may include 400 words in question. The Old Testament, maybe more? The Dead Sea Scrolls revealed a complete copy of the book of Isaiah...

There is your problem! You pick and choose scripture that works for you, sounds logical and discard the rest. Why? Because you do not believe in the entire Bible. >> You don't think it is reliable, passed down accurately and maybe partially inspired by God but much needs to be questioned. And so...

You don't know what death is and it looks like you don't have a grasp on what sin is either. The commandments gives us an idea of what sin is. In the Garden, God gave them one rule/law. Sin did not exist before they broke the law, they disobeyed. Jesus didn't create disobedience in man. Nor did...

Jesus performed many miracles, healings, fed the multitude and still there were unbelievers. " But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe." They wanted yet another sign. They brought up Moses and the manna. Likey they wanted to see manna fall from heaven? Jesus said I am...

It is scripture, not tradition! Romans 5:12 Romans 5:18-19 Psalm 51:5 Ephesians 2:2-3 Genesis 8:21 Psalm 58:3 Jeremiah 17:9 Genesis 6:5

Countless billions have been created for a purpose, some for life and some for death. The knowledge of GOOD AND EVIL had unavoidable consequences that God found necessary. Sin needs to be judged. Get rid of police and penalties for breaking the laws of the land and see what happens. Liberals...

Back up a few verses. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, 13 their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work. 14 If...

I got out of Torrance, CA after 40 years, 7 years ago..It seems I did the right thing.. Over 1 milllion people have moved out of California in the past three years. Ala ama sounds good too ... a high Christian population.

I don't think kolasis in Matthew 25:41 means punishment in the sense that a lesson is learned. I think it is a severe judgment where death of both body and soul is given. So it means destroyed. He says, "Depart from me, you accursed, INTO THE FIRE ..." Does that sound like a a slap on the hand...

Nice try, wrong again! In Acts 3:21, The period of restoration of all things - Peter is not saying all souls will be restored or saved as is taught in the false doctrine of Universalism. All souls "in Christ" have been regenerated and given eternal life. Listen to what Jesus said, Therefore I...

In Christ is our spiritual state, but I am still here on earth _ a male _ an American _ in Texas.
