    TRUTH

    Excellent post, Rach. You bring out very important things regarding God's Word to us. I have also shown that there is no evidence from the Scriptures that Peter was ever in Rome let alone in Rome for 25 years. There is nothing in the Bible from any of the Apostles or Christians in Rome...

    Thank you for sharing what you believe and not passing judgement on others.

    Spoken Word and Written Word are the Same

    They are trying to squeeze us into their narrow view of "One Church". Their view, their church, their dogma, their "Head". They show no desire to fellowship unless we accept their view of the "Universal" Church of Jesus Christ. I affirm that there is one Church universal made up of all...

    Tithing - "How to" not "whether"

    Ok, the OP asks, "How to Tithe". We walk by the Spirit. Everything a Christian does he does out of relationship with His Lord. Our actions are a result of abiding in the Lord and listening (obeying) to Him. That is called walking by the Spirit. Gal_3:2 This only would I learn of you...

    Was Peter ever in Rome? What saith the Scriptures?

    Hi Selene, I was wrong on the date and Ignatius never really said Peter was in Rome. Here is the quote: (This is found all over the Internet). "In his Letter to the Romans (A.D. 110), Ignatius of Antioch remarked that he could not command the Roman Christians the way Peter and Paul once did...

    Paul's Thorn was NOT a Sickness

    I could see that. That sickness comes from beatings and being stoned. Richard Wurmbrand got tuberculosis when he was in prison being tortured mercilessly and having iron rods stuck in him. Eventually, he had to have 1 lung removed and part of his other one. He ended up living till about 95...

    Trials, Blessings and Cursings and Walking with God

    Yes, and praise God we cannot "make too much of" Jesus Christ.

    Did Enoch Know About Our Lord Jesus Christ?

    Amen, BG. Gen_5:24 And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.

    Spoken Word and Written Word are the Same

    I don't see any reference to Apostolic Church in the Scriptures. I do see "church of God", "church of Christ", "church of the living God", "church of the Laodiceans", "church of the Thessalonians", "church of the Ephesians", "church of the Cretians" and "church of the Firstborn". I think...

    Paul's Thorn was NOT a Sickness

    Alan, my man, who gave Paul this thorn? 2Co_12:7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. Why did Paul take pleasure in his...

    What denomination would you say is the one most genuinely representing the original teaching of Chri

    Hey there, brother Alan, Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. What about those who do the will of their Father that are not in a "Word of Faith" church but are sprinkled...

    Spoken Word and Written Word are the Same

    That is so true, mjrhealth. We need to lead people to Jesus, not our "church" (organization). Once someone comes to the Lord the Holy Spirit is more than capable of guiding them. I have led Catholics, Protestants, Hindus, Muslims, etc, to Christ. I never counsel anyone to join anything or...

    The disastrous failure of the early church

    I racked my brain, too. And then when I thought I was just about to crack up from the pressure, I finally got it, (I think). I certainly hope it's not Single-White-Male. "So, they came up with the excuse that S-W-M ceased with the passing of the apostles."

    Spoken Word and Written Word are the Same

    "Let's say that one of your Christian brothers interprets a verse contrary to your group's interpretation with the result initiating a huge problem within your assembly of believers," Can you give me a specific example of "the group's interpretation" and the "individual's interpretation" that...

    The disastrous failure of the early church

    Signs, Wonders and Miracles. (I think).

    The Churches of God

    In the Scriptures, "Church" means "called out ones" (ecclesia) or assembly of saints (believers in Christ Jesus). The Apostles referred to churches (plural) in the majority of their writings, because they were writing to an assembly of believers in a region, locality or in some cases, to ALL...

    Trials, Blessings and Cursings and Walking with God

    Amen! Good quote by Tozer. Setting sin as our focus will set Satan as the focus. Holding fast to Jesus will keep Satan out. Notice that Paul and Peter don't ignore Satan. Rather they give some very important instructions concerning him. Paul understood this and knew that we could give place...

    Did Enoch Know About Our Lord Jesus Christ?

    Adam surely testified quite a bit to Enoch since they would have lived at the same time. Enoch was 308 years old when Adam died. Amo_3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

    In Reference To CyBs Statement of Faith - Christian Forum

    Rom 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. Mat_4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth...

    Spoken Word and Written Word are the Same

    What I see in post #74 is that you answered questions with questions. Moving ever so gingerly back to the OP. I have already shown here that the Apostles wrote down what they spoke orally. If you look at the preponderance of evidence in all 66 books of the Bible, God instructed men to write...
