And it isn't ABOUT "Belief" anyway. It's about FAITH which possesses SUBSTANCE, and is an EVIDENCE of what's not seen (Heb 11:1). There's no "Substance" to belief (mental assent), and it's not an "evidence" of anything other than what you feel at the time. Saving FAITH is Gifted by God to...

Chuckle!! Apparently the Fruit of the tree was VERY GOOD. Totally unimportant, however, since the only real problem was that they ate it.

Totally unimportant. The"tree", and it's "fruit" weren't ever the issue. The issue was that Eve, and then Adam tossed God under the bus, in favor of satan's offer - IN SPITE of God's instruction NOT TO EAT OF THAT TREE.

Nope - "Mankind's SINS" always "could be forgiven". Many times in the Old Testament, people were forgiven without any help from Jesus. "Forgiveness" is a simple act of the WILL - you decide to tear up the I.O.U. you're holding against them. But in the absolute their SIN is still on them...

Which would indicate that they've never REALLY been born again of the Holy Spirit, and are, in fact, only "Religious Christians" i.e. "Tares" in the congregation. Hopefully at some point they're convicted of their SIN by the Holy Spirit, surrender, repent, and call out to God in FAITH for...

Everybody who's a Born Again Christian has had the Supernatural experience of being indwelled by the Holy Spirit and having everything change.

So you're teaching that Being Born Again is BY WORKS, and "FAITH" is insufficient. How do you handle Eph 2:8,9 ???

So salvation is BY WORKS, and not by faith. Thanks for clearing that up (chuckle!)

What makes you think that the garbage distributed by the Jehovah Witness corp. amounts to “This good news of the kingdom"????

This is a good example of Modal Monarchianism - common with folks of the "Oneness persuasion". Their God is like Superman - ducking into a phone booth to change clothes to be somebody else. My favorite inaccurate illustration is a three-dimensional solid CUBE. It has three attributes: depth...

Nope - forgiveness is a simple act of the will - tearing up the I.O.U. you're holding against the person who sinned against you, as it were. God "Forgave" plenty of folks in the Old Testament. however their SIN remained on them. You can FORGIVE a theif - but that doesn't change the fact that...

Simple: Diana/Artimus was very popular in Rome, and so the early Roman churches just added their popular Goddess to the "christian" mix, and re-purposed Diana as the Catholic "Mary thing", and have been building on that lie for a couple of thousand years, instead of properly relating to the REAL...

What we KNOW (Biblically) is that: there is God (YHVH), there is a "Holy Spirit", and there is a "Word" (who was with God, and who WAS GOD) who was begotten in Mary, and became flesh. Jesus specifically names all three (Mat 28:19), and we see them in individual action at Mat 3:16 Are the...

OF COURSE!! A "Faith"/Denomination/religious movement/whatever in the Visible church systems can, and DO define all sorts of "Doctrines" that they bind their congregations to. Some of the "doctrines" have Biblical foundations, and are true in the absolute, and some doctrines are PURE GARBAGE...

SO you actually think that you have a "Recipe" that can "GET JESUS TO DO WHAT YOU WANT"????!! Sounds exactly like "Word of Faith" teaching - "If you do THIS, Jesus will have to do THAT in response". So how to you propose to "Have Faith" - when you don't actually "Have Faith" (possessing...

Ah - the 'ol WoF problem. how to move in FAITH when there's no FAITH even on the radar. SO how do you speak "BY FAITH", when you don't HAVE Biblical FAITH?? Or in the Mark 11:21-24 case how do you NOT DOUBT, when you doubt.

However "Verbally Stating it" when you don't have it is worthless. One must be UNDER authority, before they can POSSESS Authority.

"In my Father's name" or "In Jesus' name" means with the authority of the one named. In most cases ending a prayer with "In Jesus' Name" is meaningless, since Jesus AUTHORITY is not something we can Claim.

Well DUH!!!! Jesus was a fully HUMAN MAN, and As a HUMAN MAN, Got the Father was His God, as well as ours. Well DUH!!! Jesus was a man, Captain obvious!!!! Well DUH!!!! Jesus is a PHYSICAL BEING, and Father God is a SPIRITUAL BEING. That's a pretty good contrast right there don'cha...
