    Legal cannabis in Colorado and Washington state

    We are bound to a higher law. The law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus. So, the question is, "What is He telling you"? This world will give you rights that Jesus Christ in His Word and by His Spirit does not give you. We have the right in America to freedom of speech. We can call the...

    Not many will make it through the GREAT TRIBULATION. Because of no faith.

    If I'm not mistaken I think there are plenty of threads on that subject. Can you tell me why the Lord has allowed the Church to go through so much tribulation since His resurrection? Surely, nothing worse is ahead than what has already taken place. People have been crucified, skinned, beheaded...

    Polygamy

    Justin, You preach Christ not sin, when you are winning someone to Christ, you don't disparage anyone. The Bible says to "show honor to all men". This is a conversation between Christians, I thought. Also, please direct me to Christian churches in Africa, TODAY, where polygamy is preached and...

    Polygamy

    If the Holy Spirit supported Polygamy, why don't we see this as a widespread practice in the Church, today? Where are the annointed teachers of God (filled with the Holy Spirit) teaching this to the church? Why are they not telling us to take care of the widows by marrying them? I don't recall...

    Not many will make it through the GREAT TRIBULATION. Because of no faith.

    Since you made the statement Alan, I think you should take us through the scriptures and show why you see a Pre-trib Rapture. Don't you?

    The Church is Not the Source of Truth

    I like that, Rex. "He's in charge!" That is absolutely correct! It is His program, and He is in charge while little men on earth are playing god, false prophets and false christs, deluding themselves into thinking that Jesus is behind them 100%. We need to come to HIM everyday, saying...

    Redemptive Suffering / Did Christ Die Spiritually?

    Alan's statement here, that Christ died spiritually reminded me of a teaching I heard in the 80's by E.W. Kenyon on the Redemptive Suffering of Christ in which he posits that Christ died not only physically but spiritually. This was very controversial back then and was widespread amongst...

    Can You Be Righteous

    :) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the...

    The Church is Not the Source of Truth

    Why substitute anything for the REAL THING? Jesus said, "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." (Mat_18:20) I don't see anything missing here, do you? I think we don't need "poor substitutes" because the "REAL THING" is still here on earth...

    Can You Be Righteous

    We Are Transformed by His Righteousness "that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." (II Cor_5:21) "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind..." (Rom_12:2) Abiding in Christ That is an amazing prospect "that we ... might be made the...

    The Church is Not the Source of Truth

    [/color] What is a perfect human model of faith? And what is wrong with Jesus Christ as our human model of faith? Why lower the standard? Why attempt to replace Jesus Christ with men and move our eyes and ears off of the Lord to a "human model". Also, I did not read where dragonfly is "all...

    Spoken Word and Written Word are the Same

    Hi dragonfly, Thank you for bringing this to my attention. That is not written clearly and what I meant to say is that there will be no more sources for the writing of Scripture as we see men have tried to do after all the original Apostles died. And as we see, the NT is finished and in...

    The Church is Not the Source of Truth

    If people are following Luther, Calvin, Knox or Zwingli, the same statement holds true for them. We are to follow the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus said, "Follow me", not the Pope, Luther, Calvin, Knox, Zwingli or any man. No one can replace His Lordship and Headship over the Church. We abide in...

    Christ preaching to spirits in days of Noah.

    But Christ did not die spiritually. He only died, physically.

    The Church is Not the Source of Truth

    Amen, Gypsy. We follow Jesus Christ and He is alive and well and living in His Church. The religious system that put Jesus to death still exists though they continue to morph into different religious entities. The head of the religious system is Satan and he and his false church have been...

    The Church is Not the Source of Truth

    Hi Wayseer, There is much more than the religious structure you are seeing with your eyes, today. There has ALWAYS been another "structure" yet it is not made with brick and stones and wood. It is not prominent and seen like the religious structure, it does not vaunteth itself, nor array itself...

    The Church is Not the Source of Truth

    Hi wayseer, The wheat and the tares grow up together and God will separate them. That is why the scriptures say: "Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity."...

    The Church is Not the Source of Truth

    Many so-called "christian" religions will take verses out of the Bible to build entire denominations on which clearly have no relation to the practice of the early Church or the Spirit of Christ. In so doing, they co-op the Headship of Christ on earth and in so doing, ignore Jesus Christ's...
