    For There Is One God, And One Mediator Between God And Mankind

    You failed the test. I did not say that what is written "is not what I want", but rather that both scenarios are written and must be "rightly divided." By not carrying the matter all the way through to include all factors (including "rightly dividing the word of truth") one takes up one...

    Eternal salvation and 'the church'

    You have separated what God has joined together.

    Everyone Goes to Heaven

    Daniel 12:2 And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to shame and everlasting contempt.

    Disproving False Religions with Christian Universalism

    Daniel 12:2 And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to shame and everlasting contempt.

    For There Is One God, And One Mediator Between God And Mankind

    There is a lot in what you have posted--many topics, and not just that of "one God and one mediator." Holding to the one God and mediator topic, indeed there is only one of each. But that makes it sound like they are not One, against what the scriptures actually say. And yes, a case can be made...

    Eternal salvation and 'the church'

    This appears to be conjecture from your own attempts at defining what you believe rather than what you actually know to be true. While the scriptures overall describe only one gathering, that is--in Himself one new man from the two.

    Saying Christianity isn't a religion is silly

    I guess I have never said that Christianity is not a religion; and I guess I have never considered it as silly or negative to do so...because, in most cases I understand the claim to be only part of what one means to say. So, yes, saying only part--that would be "silly" or worse. Considering...

    In Bed at the Appearing

    This is true. And yet it is also true that among the countless egos down through all the ages, God has chosen a small number who would rather go hide themselves from the crowds, whose egos are not large enough to be let out in public, whom He has appointed to speak, not what they think, not...

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    Yes. However, that does not tell the end of the matter; and yet without considering the end, it would seem to define Jesus as not being One and God. I suspect that is why you have asked the question. But that would be a half truth, and only part of "all truth." From the beginning and in the...

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    You are not putting all of what is written together...the end of which is God is One. So, dwell as long as you will on that path toward the Holy of Holies. Meanwhile, you have only been describing those things along the journey, those things that lead to the One, including Christ.

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    ...then, you have heard nothing and are still in error by your own semantics and not understanding that the two are One.

    Who was sacrificed Jesus the human, or the spirit being who came to earth to become Jesus?

    Now the truth comes out. By that statement, you show that you do not know that it is God who is the tree of life, and that He sent them out of the garden taking life from them--that they should die, unless they also take of Him and live.

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    I am afraid your idea of what is "literal" is completely off the mark, and you are at risk of blindly following traditions that are actually "literally" fulfilled in Christ our "literal" Sabbath. Beware therefore that you are not worshiping the tradition (which can be a form of idol worship)...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    No, but you misunderstand. Christ is "the End" of days to all who come to know Him...and "the Beginning" of eternal rest. No more "practice."

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    These things do not point to the times of this world, but rather to the things of God, meaning His eternal rest--not a practice. By definition, the Sabbath is not a day to be practiced once fulfilled, but (as you say "it is forever." Thus, Jesus "did not come to destroy, but to fulfill"...which...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    Jesus indeed did prophecy regarding the Sabbath, but not in the way you have assumed. Jesus was speaking to His disciples, to whom He addressed first with the Sabbath Day warning and regarding His appearing thereafter. Which to His disciples living in that generation meant that He was about to...

    Darkness and light (poll)

    Not sure this qualifies for the poll :) , but... What would appear to be a "process" is only so from the perspective of those walking through the experience as God has arranged it to be experienced. To the contrary, the saying "before the foundation of the world" with regard to salvation is...

    Is There Any Hope for the Unsaved Dead?

    God has allotted time for salvation as ones lifetime in the world, as it is written, "today, is the day of salvation." That being said...did Jesus and the apostles not raise the dead? Did Jesus not say of Lazarus, “Lazarus is dead?" and also say, “Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may...

    In Bed at the Appearing

    Rocky, During these same times it was also foretold that there would be false teachers among the church teaching destructive doctrines, a major lie would be believed causing strong delusion, and that Jesus would not come when expected. So, let's look at your list of expected things: 1 & 2)...
