    Does Your Church Teach About the Rapture(Catching up) Heaven, Hell, Prophecy?

    Problems with the pre-tribulational view are highlighted by Baptist (and premillennial) theologian Dale Moody, who wrote: "Belief in a pre-tribulational rapture . . . contradicts all three chapters in the New Testament that mention the tribulation and the rapture together (Mark 13:24–27; Matt...

    Does Your Church Teach About the Rapture(Catching up) Heaven, Hell, Prophecy?

    This clever argument, used by Ryrie, LaHaye, Lindsey, and others, is effective in persuading those with little knowledge of historical theology or the beliefs of the early Church. True, several early Christian writers — notably Papias, Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Tertullian, Hippolytus, Methodius...

    Once Saved....always Saved - Results of Questionnaire.

    That's a benefit of salvation in the here and now. It says nothing about assurance of salvation. "may know" does not mean "will know". That doesn't mean we can stop persevering. Why would Jesus intervene if salvation is assured? John 10:29 "My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than...

    Once Saved....always Saved - Results of Questionnaire.

    That's evading the question. We all want to make the right choices. We all want to be good Christians. We can be morally certain of our salvation, but nobody can be 100% infallibly certain, unless it's by divine revelation. That's the point St. Paul makes repeatedly.

    Any body in Heaven ?

    According to your way of thinking, and consistency in Ellen White's teaching and interpretation, the woman in Revelation 12:17 is the Whore of Babylon. The only way out of this dilemma is to flip from metaphoric, literal personifications, and/or symbolic, and/or metaphoric, or any combination...

    Any body in Heaven ?

    Misrepresentation is a big word. A half truth is still a lie. Sorry you find praying to God so disturbing. All prayer ends up going to God, and only God may or may not answer. Unfortunately, you cannot understand this because it's contrary to the preconceptions you wholeheartedly believe. You...

    Incarnation

    Calm down. I come across as harsh sometimes to get through thick walls. I am not an apologist, it's a hobby for me. I make mistakes. I think it's wrong to say a person is in error without proof. I gave proof. You should expect a lot of resistance coming in to a Christian forum. It's between you...

    CATHOLIC BASHING THREAD TITLES

    I would never ridicule a person who has had a life transforming experience at a church service, or a person who had a moral awakening as as a result of reciting the sinners prayer, or any given slogan. As valuable as these experiences may be, it is not "born again" according the definition Jesus...

    CATHOLIC BASHING THREAD TITLES

    "works salvation" or "works righteousness" is a heresy called Pelagianism. This has been explained in detail to certain persons 20-30 times. My theory is that anti-Catholicism causes brain damage; it renders the anti-Catholic incapable of learning. The other theory of mine is they are sadists, a...

    Incarnation

    No, just as the heretic Arius says he is. Your use of the phrase "only begotten Son of God" implies Jesus was CONCEIVED of the Father. Scripture doesn't say it the way you sloganize it. I'll give you a free lesson from my esteemed Protestant bretheren. You can ignore it at your peril. It is...

    Incarnation

    Hmm...Jesus was a Rabbi. He astonished the most learned men in Jerusalem as a young teenager.(a.k.a. The Finding of Jesus in the Temple.) He was judged by the Pharisees because He had the audacity to claim to be the Son of God. That's why they killed Him. John 10:34-36 34Jesus answered them...

    Your "Dr." Franz Delitzsc at the most, studied Greek for 2 years, which is not even the equivalent of a B.A. The title "Dr." is phony. The rest of the scholastic team probably just finished high school. The claim they were biblical scholars is a joke. Jesus SPOKE Aramaic, not Greek. No human...
