    Godly Sorrow.

    Below is a good example of anything that may be considered bad or even evil that is instead entirely different when the intentions are godly--that is to say, from God: 2 Corinthians 7:2-12 Open your hearts to us. We have wronged no one, we have corrupted no one, we have cheated no one. 3 I do...

    Question for non-JW's

    Exactly, but rather to reveal it, that the man of sin should be revealed. That's what the world is, the revealing of sins (made manifest) for the Judgment.

    Question for non-JW's

    Apparently there is a purpose to it. After all, Jesus did say, "Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword" and foretold as much, also saying, "Now brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against...

    Baptized Into Christ, Rightly Divided Summary...

    Those are some big words-- sounds intellectual. :rolleyes: But, no, it just means that what is seen is not actual reality, while what is unseen--as God is unseen, is; and if you have not figured that out, you remain in the darkness and have missed the warnings. Luke 11:35 Therefore take heed...

    Christians are the true Jews!

    There is indeed a great mystery to understand in what you have posted. Why did Paul say "all Israel" (would be saved) rather than "all the children of Jacob?" It is because all the children of Jacob will not all "be saved"...and yet it would seem that all the children of Jacob are all the same...

    Baptized Into Christ, Rightly Divided Summary...

    I am saying that just as mankind was created in God's "image" (rather than becoming directly One with God as in the end), and just as the temple was first made of stone but was only a foreshadowing of the body of Christ of which we who His are becoming living stones in heavenly places; that the...

    Christians are the true Jews!

    You can contradict the rest of scripture, up to you. But scripture clearly states that the differences that can be and once were considered an issue, no longer are.

    Christians are the true Jews!

    Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor gentile, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

    Baptized Into Christ, Rightly Divided Summary...

    I see that you are sincere and concerned. Thank you for that. However, it is not good that you recommend religious practices without yourself understanding "which is greater" the object of teaching or the subject." Which, if you yourself actually understood the scriptures you would understand...

    Born again of God vs religious conversion

    The words of the scriptures/Bible are not literary, and therefore foolishness to the natural man. 1 Corinthians 2:14 "The words that I speak to you are spirit"

    Born again of God vs religious conversion

    Reactionary name-calling rubbish. Squirm, squirm. "A tree is known by its fruit."
  12. ScottA

    Let's dispense of souls being converted and saved, but not lives, shall we?

    Your doctrine is against (anti) what Christ said: John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

    Inconsistency of Christians never being sinless

    We've been through all this, and you are still under the illusion that the children of the sin of Adam and Eve are to be glorified in the flesh rather than die and be destroyed with the elements of this old earth. And you are not hearing the truth when it is pointed out to you. Thus, I leave you...

    Why Hitler killed the Jews

    More importantly...after Jesus had "finished" with the house of Israel for which He first came-- Why did God allow 6 million Jews, etc. to be killed on the world stage, coincidentally during a war called the "2nd" world war? Coincidence? No. Incidentally, the 1st world war came as a result of...

    Baptized Into Christ, Rightly Divided Summary...

    In Acts 2 Peter was addressing the “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem" when he told them to be baptized in the name of Jesus-- because they needed to repent of just having crucified Him. To the contrary, after finishing with the house of Israel for which He first came, He announced to...

    Baptized Into Christ, Rightly Divided Summary...

    Your assertion would make Jesus a liar. Have you not read the account of the two thieves who were crucified with Jesus, where He said to the one not mentioning baptism, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise?” In other words, no baptism is not "required as part of the...

    The twelfth Apostle

    That is a dodge on your part. It is I who asked you that question and you have turned it around, obviously avoiding the fact that you cannot give an answer with biblical evidence or confirmation regarding Maria Valtorta. You have said enough.

    Baptized Into Christ, Rightly Divided Summary...

    You quoted my explanation from the scriptures. Scripturally, being born of water is first, which means born of women, all of whom are condemned to death for the sin of Adam and Eve that got all mankind driven out of the presence of God. Have you not read these things?

    The twelfth Apostle

    You are missing the point. The point is that "signs" are seen and therefore the lessor compared with those things done by the spirit which are unseen. Meaning, that the "signs of an apostle" are the lesser...while the church has incorrectly considered them the greater.

    A Christian voting for President now may be a sin

    I see. However, I would caution you on your understanding of gender as created by God, why, and the roles He has assigned. Also on Trump. The gender of all creation first shows the headship of God, but then shows the place of all who are in Christ...as women. "This is a great mystery, but I...
