The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are one, but they are also distinct from one other. In the same way, husbands and wives are one, but they are distinct from one other. The husband is the head.....and the wife is not. She cannot take the title "Pastor." That title belongs only to her husband.

Angelina and Niki, the New Jerusalem is the Church. The Church is the Bride of Christ, which is why St. Paul used husbands and wives as an analogy to describe Christ and His Church. Catholics are not the only ones who believe this. There are many Protestants who also believe that the New...

The wife can be the Pastor's helpmate, but she should not take the title "Pastor." That title belongs to her husband.

I think you need to read the beginning chapter of Revelations 22. Revelations 22:1-3 Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. (The old earth and heaven is gone, and God created a new earth and heaven. So...

Where in the Bible did it say that the Church becomes defunct?? How can Christians become defunct in God's kingdom when we're supposed to have eternal life in Heaven?? The Church and the Heavenly Jerusalem are the same. Christ did not marry two brides. He only has one bride.

You are correct that Christ and His Church is one as liken to marriage. You are also correct that Christ and the New Jerusalem are one as liken to marriage. The Church and the Heavenly Jerusalem are the same. Christ does not have two brides. He only has one bride. And St. Paul calls the...

Actually, he does teach the Bible. He speaks more about the positive aspects. He focuses more on God's love and mercy. When one focus on preaching God's love and mercy, that is teaching the Bible. On the other hand, Joel, stays away from the negative aspects. I don't hear him say anything...

A woman cannot be a pastor because she is not the head of the household. She can assist a Pastor, but she is not a pastor nor does she take the title of Pastor. That title belongs only to the man because the man is the head of the household. The husband is the Head of the house just as Christ...

The Temple of God is the Church because our bodies have become the temple....the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit. The Church is also the Bride of Christ. God's family is about relationship. Christ's bride is not made of stone walls and paved roads. Ephesians 5:23 For the husband is...

I'm a cat! I'm a very big ferocious cat. See my avatar!! :D Selene the Tiger. Errrr.......when you say Melcanians love cats......that doesn't mean that they eat cats.....does it?? :unsure:

This is why I believe that faith and good works go together hand in hand. They were never separate. The Bible does not teach "faith alone" or "good works" alone. It had always been faith and good works together. After all, a person can have faith and no good works. This is what you call...

In context of what St. Paul was saying, he was comparing the two women figuratively. Galatians 4:26 These things are being taken figuratively: The women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar. Now Hagar stands for...

We are saved by Grace. Faith is a gift from God, which the goats refused to take. The sheep accepted God's gift.

The thing is.......the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John were all written by men. Christ never wrote anything. Men wrote the entire Bible and the Bible teaches that homosexuality is a sin. If you don't believe that the Bible is the inerrant word of God, then what book are you placing...

The New Jerusalem is a Holy City AND a Church. In the same way, we are also a Holy Nation and a Church (See 1 Peter 2:9). It's the same thing. Christ is not going to marry stones and brick walls with paved roads. He's not going to marry a city. Christ is marrying the Church. This is the...

I agree. Even Joel Olsteen who lacks a background in Theology quotes a lot of scripture. Perhaps, the problem is people not listening in Church. :D

By allowing God to use you as His instrument to carry out His Will. Ephesians 2:10 For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. And those sheep got saved? Why? Because they were doing God's will (Matthew 7:21).

Hey....I've even met people who tell me that the word "homosexuality" doesn't exist in the Bible......which is true considering that the word is a modern word. Nevertheless, it's what the Book of Leviticus and St. Paul was saying. Homosexuality is a sin. Perhaps, they didn't call it...

That is not what we meant for "choosing." God chooses certain people to carry out His mission. For example, He chose Moses to bring His people out of slavery from Egypt. And this doesn't make God a sinner. He has free will and He can choose whomever He wants. Where did anyone say that God...

God does not need us to do good works toward Him. Since when does God need our help? The good works comes from God. God uses us as His instrument to carry out His will and His work to help others. I agree. This is why we don't believe in "good works alone" because even the atheist can do...
