I didn't say Gnostics believed in eternal security. I said Simon Magus mixed the Gnostics' belief about the afterlife with the biblical concept of salvation and created the eternal security doctrine.

The obvious problem with such a self righteous argument like this is that politics is fundamentally built on people using human reasoning to solve their problems instead of God's revealed word. Religious voters think they're doing God's will by voting, but they're simply doing what every other...

This is a rather presumptive argument, because you haven't looked into every church's teaching to know this is absolutely true. Revelation shows Christ marrying the 1 organization that has represented Him for the last 1900 years, so there is an organization out there that officially represents...

The Bible teaches that Lucifer and the angels he deceived went to Heaven so they could take God's place there, so yeah, Heaven is that good. You should also consider the fact that 2/3 of the angels stayed loyal to God.

I am not putting the Sabbath day above believing in Jesus. It is because I believe Jesus' words that i keep the Sabbath. Like other "Christians" who reject the Sabbath, you think believing in Christ's existence is more important than believing what He said. As Christ said in Matt. 7:24-25, the...

In Rom. 13, God gave civil authorities the responsibility of carrying out the death penalty. That is New Covenant theology. As Paul said, if you don't want it to be enforced on you, don't do evil. Simple as that. Ofc, that doesn't mean the courts shouldn't wrongfully put someone in that...

Contrary to what "Christianity" teaches, the festivals were not given to "point to Christ". They reveal God's plan of salvation, which adherents of Orthodox Christianity would know if they obeyed God. Your theology is also false for at least 3 reasons: 1. Romans teaches that the commandments...

It should also be said that it doesn't do any good for someone to read the Bible and not practice or believe what it's in it.

I would much rather have someone like Abraham Lincoln as POTUS than someone like Trump, but i guarantee you that Trump will be back in the WH, no matter who does or doesn't like him. It's simply a matter of seeing whether God puts Trump back in the WH by exposing the election steal for what it...

It's not about listening or willingly being engaged with the parable, because the crowds Jesus spoke to did all that and still didn't understand a thing He said. God's Spirit wasn't drawing those people, so anything Jesus said to them had might as well been in Spanish. This is incorrect...

You are 100% wrong. Nero's persecution was only the beginning of significantly more ruthless waves of persecution that were carried out by the emperors who came after him. By the last 2 decades of the 1st century, the emperors weren't just satisfied in expunging Christianity from Rome. The...

Let me get this straight: you're saying chapters like Mic. 4, Zech. 14, and Dan. 7 should just discarded as "nonsense" or "ridiculous" because of your own failure to believe what the prophets wrote? It's no wonder why Christ called such people fools. It is extremely tragic that even the...

Actually, that is exactly what 1 Tim. 3:15 says. God's Church is the authority on what constitutes truth as long it is led by the Source of all truth. According to Rev. 17:5, Protestants never left Rome. The Bible says the harlot church and its protesting daughter churches are all equally...

Your premise is completely contradictory and all over the place. First you say Christians are supposed to get their doctrines from ecumenical councils(and what are basically the heresies that became orthodox over the first few centuries), then you end it by saying you believe scripture should...

I already showed you how flawed your logic is by telling you what Paul said about how God's religion is organized in Corinthians and Ephesians. It is completely logical to conclude that if God is about order like Paul said He is, His religion would naturally be built to prevent doctrinal...

It is realistic because Isa. 2:2-4 and Mic. 4:2 says nations will be taught to not go to war against each other. They'll be too busy learning the ways of God and keeping His commandments to do that.

The very first recorded statement from Christ's ministry was for people to repent. Orthodox Christianity has regressed to a point where even the plainest passages are now dismissed as heresy. I can understand how someone could not understand bible prophecy, but how does a person claiming...

Living faith includes obeying God. As Paul said in Rom. 2:13, it is the people who obey God's commandments who are just in His sight. Protestants are in dire need of learning the difference between Paul saying obeying God's commandments isn't required and him saying God's commandments can't...

You are misquoting all of those passages. None of those passages say what you believe they say, especially in light of all of the OT passages that concretely teach the dead aren't aware of anything. The idea that a person dies and ends up in God's presence also contradict the NT plainly teaching...

It's not debatable because Domitian was the Roman emperor who sentenced John to being confined on Patmos.
