    Is Universalism true?

    Joe, You have reconciled the matter in your mind and in your heart--which is only so good. But you have not reconciled all that is written. Such are the arguments of the devil. Half of the truth is no more than a lie. And just as we who are His are in Christ, the devil also has his own who...

    Bibliolatry: Worship/knowledge of the book MORE than the author

    Restoration in the biblical context does not mean saving everything, but rather replacing it...just as it is in replacing the old with the new heavens and new earth, but destroying the old with fervent heat and with fire. Likewise "not that body" of flesh inherits the kingdom of God, but one...

    Has the church got Genesis all wrong?

    If God used a donkey and even Nebuchadnezzar...or for that matter, any of us, why question His use of a father-in-law who was not of Israel?

    Christ's sinless Head with a sinful body?

    Do you know what the apostles could not bear that Jesus could not tell them 2,000 years ago? Do you know the finish of the mystery of God as he declared to his servants the prophets, which was not to come until just before the seventh angel sounds? Do you even know how we were to be "led unto...

    Christ's sinless Head with a sinful body?

    Go ahead, mock the miracles and unworldly nature of God and the spirit. Did God not part the Red Sea? Did Jesus not walk on water? Don't be a fool!

    Christ's sinless Head with a sinful body?

    I think I have said it before...but obviously these things need to be taken one at a time, and first things first before moving on to a whole host of issues. Again...here above you are under the wrong impression. I was not referring to the time of when God inspired men to write the book, but...

    Christ's sinless Head with a sinful body?

    What flak, that they are still saved in spite of the struggle? That is what Paul, who was saved on the road to Damascus, clarified was a fact of "we who are alive and remain" in the world in the flesh while having been also born again of the spirit of God. Are you not getting the chronology...

    Let the dead bury their own dead

    Even today many say similar things as did the man to whom Jesus spoke. The man said he would follow Jesus wherever He went, but then made an exception regarding his father. Many even today say things like, "I want to be with Jesus and with God, but I don't want to die." But the point of the...

    Our sins were forgiven after believing in the Lord, but why do we still often sin? How can we finally escape the bondage of sin?

    Thank you--and blessing to you! I would gladly delete my comment, seeing that you have apologized for yours...but you show a goodness that should not be covered up!

    Religious Delusions?

    Matthew 12:39 But He answered and said to them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. Certainly one should not believe anything and everything that comes along. There are warnings. But to expect an old world...

    Our sins were forgiven after believing in the Lord, but why do we still often sin? How can we finally escape the bondage of sin?

    Indeed! If we are in fact a new creation, we go from loving to sin, to hating it!

    Our sins were forgiven after believing in the Lord, but why do we still often sin? How can we finally escape the bondage of sin?

    If I may interject... Indeed His kingdom has come, as has the New Jerusalem. But it is not as many perceive it to be. Because the kingdom of God is "within you", why do you expect the new heaven and earth to be outward and seen? That is completely backwards, the thinking of men and of the...

    Our sins were forgiven after believing in the Lord, but why do we still often sin? How can we finally escape the bondage of sin?

    Go ahead and continue to be deceived, to deny that false teachers have entered into the church teaching a lie causing strong delusion and great apostacy. Why spoil the delusion--why spoil the slumber?

    Our sins were forgiven after believing in the Lord, but why do we still often sin? How can we finally escape the bondage of sin?

    You are perhaps going to hear many different answers to your title question. Only one answer is correct. What has been occurring with Christians since Pentecost is something completely new and was not fully understood during the times of the early church, and many among the early church were...

    Do you believe that ALL babies that die go to Heaven or only "the elect"?

    False--no man taught me. Can you say as much?

    Losing Your Salvation - Bible Verses

    ... Could it be the Big Boy is "ignoring" me (and the whole truth)!??

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    Is it so hard to understand that one who is saved has received eternal life from God, which by definition would not be "eternal" if they could lose it, making God a liar? Is that really the position anyone here wants to take? Because to do so--because eternal life comes by the Holy Spirit--it...

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    I keep saying you misunderstand, and here again you apparently don't even what Once Saved Always Saved is. To be clear--not for you, you don't seem to want to know...but for anyone else who would like to actually know the truth from God rather than from naysayers: OSAS refers to the fact that...
