    Do Demon's Dwell Within Christians?

    Let's look at that logic remembering that we are joined to Christ in our spirit. If Jesus will not share us with a demon, then who is Jesus sharing a Christian with who is committing adultery? Or lying (lying spirit) such as Ananias and Saphira? When the ark of the covenant was in the midst...

    Why is Hell Eternal?

    Do you see the problem here? God does not have to convince the godly. He is convincing the ungodly. Does God the Father have to worry about Jesus rebelling? Neither does He have to worry about those who have been conformed to the image of His Son. And what is the penalty/punishment for...

    Your Opinion On Atheists

    Great outline on Atheism by Jim Fowler. Defining "atheism" A. Bible begins with assertion of God. Gen. 1:1 - "In the beginning God..." Does not attempt to prove God's existence. B. Atheism derived from two Greek words: a = no; theos = God. C. Atheism is usually defined as the...

    How does God create the angels?

    God tests everything that He creates. Sin is anything that is not of God.

    Spoken Word and Written Word are the Same

    Yes, that is silly MJR. But, you have gone to the other extreme by creating your strawman. True, there are biblicists that idolize the Bible. Then there is the other extreme, people like you who throw the Scriptures completely out. Neither extreme is correct or healthy. One of the dangers...

    Sabbath

    Let’s first start with Genesis 2:2-3. Gen 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. Gen 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. Gen 2:3 And God blessed the seventh...

    Why is Hell Eternal?

    Does God love Satan? Does God love Satan's children? Rom_5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. This verse refers to sinners who have not died, yet. It does not mean that God loves the wicked after they die in their sins and go to...

    Why is Hell Eternal?

    You added "and Saints". That is not in the text in Revelation 14:10. And God does not love the Devil or his children. So, your statement "absurd thing for love to do" is only bringing charges against the Lord when this was the choice of the Devil and all those who chose to serve him. Imagine...

    Don' Tamper with the Holy Spirit's Seal

    Eph_1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Paul's is using an analogy of a "sealed document" back then. When you sealed a document, you sealed it...

    Can You Lose Your Salvation ?

    I agree with you. But also, people need to understand what being "truly born-again" is. First, it is not a prayer that you prayed 25 years ago. You don't get your "ticket punched" and then say, I was truly born-again on such and such date and therefore I am and always will be saved. If you are...

    Why is Hell Eternal?

    What do you mean "you cannot help but to do the will of God". Are you saying that there is no struggle with the flesh and thus no need for the crucified life or the Cross? We no longer have to choose? It's just automatic? Can you expound on your statement? The verses you give as examples are...

    Why did the Pharisees reject Christ and are will better than them?

    True. Jesus threatened the Pharisees way of living. He threatened the religious system that they created to control men. The Pharisees remarked one time, "Look the people are going after Him". Mar_11:18 And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they...

    Sabbath

    God's ordained day of rest is not a day anymore, but a person. His Son, Jesus Christ. The Sabbath was a only a shadow of the True Sabbath. We need to rest from our own labors of righteousness 7 days a week not 1 day a week. We are to rest in His labor of righteousness which was PERFECT.

    Is There An Unforgiveable Sin ?

    Not at all John 8_32. That is a great verse. Until we 'endure to the end' we are not saved. I have seen the root of bitterness defile many Christians on the road to Zion. They left the highway of holiness. Rom_12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you...

    Is our soul electrical ... ?

    I understand. Thanks for explaining your position, Arnie.

    What does God get out of all this?

    Jesus Christ is getting a Bride out of all of this. A people that willing turn away from self, sin and Satan and love Him with all their heart. Jesus is getting a people that walked as He walked. That willing chose to suffer and go without the "pleasures of Egypt", for the priceless privilege of...

    Where's REAL Bible Teaching Gone?

    Oh, I was going to say that what sets Christianity apart from other religions is that the Spirit of God has come to dwell within man, but then, you did not want any that is supernatural. The reason that only a minority of men are Christian, is because of the Cross. The Cross is a scandal to men...

    Is It Proper to Limit God?

    The Book says that He is infinite and all powerful, able to do miracles and the Creator of the heavens and the earth. The Book also says there is no salvation in any other, except Jesus Christ. His words will stand. I grant you that New Age versions of the Book are doing violence to the...

    Spoken Word and Written Word are the Same

    I think you are just coming from another vantage point. I don't know what your experiences are with men and the religious system, but you seem to be speaking to the religious Pharisee. The one who quotes the Scripture but does not obey Jesus nor have the love of God in them. I'm sure you are not...

    Tithing - "How to" not "whether"

    Here is what you said: Where do you see this "compliments" the law? My Bible says, "Fulfills the law". Actually, the Holy Spirit through Paul says that we are "delivered from the law". Rom_7:6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve...
