Indeed! There is nothing better than having Jesus now. Amen.

Thank you to all for the encouraging comments. Jiggyfly, that is a great question and I look forward to contributing some more to this topic. Bear with me because I have a very busy day, today, so I won't be able to get back to this too soon. In the meantime I encourage others to keep...

The altar of sexual idolatry is not just frequented by gays. It is overflowing with millions. It would be no different if my child was hooked on pornography and utterly promiscuous. I won't stop loving them and telling them the truth. The truth will set them free from destruction ahead, and love...

Do you resist God's authority in your life? Do you have an ear to hear God's voice? Is your heart tender-hearted to the voice of the Holy Spirit? Do you mourn when you fail the Lord, or do you justify, minimize and blameshift? Do you want to be governed by God in every area of your life, or...

No one really needs Greek to understand that when you take the preponderance of Scriptures into view, it is easy to know Who the Rock of the Church, is. The Holy Spirit always points to Christ, not Peter (and certainly not Mary). The Holy Spirit does not direct anyone's heart toward any man...

I wonder why other Bibles have not been made Public Domain? Public Domain should ensure the KJV is always around, unchanged.

You differentiate between the born-again and the elect and sometimes the born-again are not saved. So, maybe the "elect" that think they are choosing life, are really the born-again, that aren't going to endure. In other words, according to your logic, the elect and the born-again are aware...

So true. And then suicide by those destined for glory or destined for hell should not be an issue. Remember the Jim Jones commune in Guyana? He talked 900 people into drinking poison during communion and they all died (cyanide). I wonder how many we're of the elect. With the logic we have...

When I ask, "Can we have relationship with the God without coming under His authority, I am not talking about a distant relationship of "believing" He exists (as do devils) or having sporadic conversations with God as did Cain. I am speaking about a vital, intimate, harmonic relationship with...

You beat me to it Scott and dragonfly.

Yes, the heart of fallen man is blame-shifting.

Yes, and I think not understanding the Character of God becomes a barrier to relationship with God. We run and hide when we should be running TO Him.

The Church "fathers" that I know of are the writers of the NT Scriptures. The Old Testament was given to by many different prophets. Two kings were among them. Who did you have in mind?

It has to do with your last reply on Eternal Security. Does that help? Can you respond now?

Yes, of course. Until proven (manifested), otherwise. One who has Christ will bear Christ's fruit. Quote Not being married has nothing to do with holiness (obviously) or power for service (Holy Spirit). Walking in His footsteps has everything to do with obedience to the Father, Son and Holy...

Jesus who spoke of hell more than anyone in the bible (and heaven) does not give me the option of purgatory. In fact, He never mentioned it.

Yep, no demons in churches. The Stain Glass windows keep them out. What about the clergy that live and work inside the Church?

Oh, I got it. Makes perfect sense! And if God did not predetermine some for destruction, NONE would be lost. We can't have that now, can we? So, some have no idea they are choosing life and some have no idea they are choosing destruction. Let's break this down: 1. None would be saved...

Paul and James were perfectly in sync and the Holy Spirit used them to speak to two separate issues. Paul is fearful of dead works without a living faith. James is fearful of a dead faith that produces no good works.

Anyway, we have the testimony of many witnesses or the lack thereof. And the FACTS are, no one in the NT saw or commented about Peter being in Rome. Not Paul, not Luke, not anyone. So, fabricate on with your contrived and revisionist theology and history.
