Amen....ye shall "know" (discern) them by their fruits. And when someone is trying to re-invent the wheel that God invented....it robs Him of His glory.

In answer to your question, no truly......the way Epi starts pulling things out of his hat to accuse people whenever he is confronted with the word of God......is what makes me question his sincerity and love of the truth. And I long ago stopped expecting to see any care for souls here. Dr...

Hmmm...out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Have you no fear of God? And the pattern of your behaviour is predictable....can your followers not see this by now?

Yes those things can be symptoms of dementia. But also could be caused by other things.....if the family can afford it she really should be checked out by a doctor to rule out other medical problems.

I'm not talking about society, I'm talking about the church here. Where do you get that I wash my hands of responsibility? And your followers just keep liking your accusations. Do they ever think for themselves? Yes I know.....believers make a difference where they are.

Religious slogans? What about those who just ignore scriptures and stick with their religious script even when God's word clearly contradicts it? We overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. His Spirit witnesses to our spirit that we are children of God. We have...

Yes, I agree with that. That is where many are unfortunately, especially in the west. So many have left the way of the cross and "are at ease in Zion." Israel backslid when she got too prosperous and comfortable.

I think people are reluctant to "go into great detail about what they have seen and heard" especially on a public platform......testimonies are as the Lord leads and opens a door for it, when it is appropriate and might help to encourage someone. Regardless of what anyone thinks about Paul's...

In Acts, it says "those who were appointed to salvation believed." We are "elect according to the foreknowledge of God" the bible says....He saves those He has "foreknown". But it might be a chicken/egg kind of thing...we may never really resolve that question this side of heaven. The bible...

All who are born of God have a testimony. And Paul said that he didn't consider he had yet attained, and even urged others who were "perfect" to be of the same mind as he. So the race isn't over til its over, no matter what testimonies anyone has and we all need to bear that in mind.

According to Jesus the work of God is to believe in He who God has sent......so apparently our faith is a kind of "work" we will be judged on as well. What don't we get about "God calling those things which be not as though they are"...? AKA that's what imputed means in those verses...he is...

Fallen from grace means that they had repented, but fallen from the grace they once had. It says they had been running a good race until Judaizers cut in on them. Ultimately it's the flesh that wants tangible certainty, which is not of faith. The flesh wants what it can see, hear, taste and...

Honestly I don't know for sure. Wages of sin is death...and Jesus spoke about fearing Him who can destroy both body and soul in hell. But there is also a factor that God exists outside of time in eternity which it is hard to grasp all that that means.

God calls those things which be not as though they are. Says so in plain language. And faith is deemed a good thing by God. Come on brother, it is very clear that Abraham was commended for believing God even though his body was as good as dead.....and that is the reason why righteousness was...

ok, here's how I'm seeing it. It says they had been running a good race but others had cut in on them.....also says those who were now trying to be justified by the Law had fallen from grace.........Paul also said he was in labour again that Christ be formed in them. So they needed to come...

Seems to me it would be better and more merciful to perish than to exist in outer darkness weeping and gnashing teeth for eternity.

...almost as if someone handed them all the same script.....? I've seen that happen with our propaganda media here in Canada too.

Amen, well said sister, I like how you put that.....a byproduct of serving and doing His will. (That is also like we could say works are a byproduct of our faith.) Bible says that "Signs follow the preaching of the gospel".....and I think the word "follow" there kind of incorporates the idea...

Amen. Glad you said this, as it has been on my mind. If we are being led by the Spirit, He is leading our journey/growth as the Shepherd of our souls. We have but to follow. Our job is to seek and follow His will day by day and He is the one leading us to where He wants us to be, wherever...

You just answered the question I had! Sounds right to me! Our God is a consuming fire and will burn up everything that is not of Him....that believer is of Him even though all of his works were not, so he himself will not be burned up but still saved.
