There is nothing but failure with false professors (apostates or hypocrites). These have a temporary show of Christianity, but since it is not in Christ (excluding the babe in Christ who will mature) they eventually depart from what they though is Christianity. A true Christian will continue in...

True, it wouldn't be right for God to take His children through difficulties hardness for the wrong reason. He does it for our good, as He does everything. There's never a time that He is not using everything for our "good" (Ro 8:28). There's only one measure God uses to evaluates believers--the...

Like what you said. Concerning our trials, I don't see them as pass or fail testing but testing that always strengthens our faith. Of course God knows how we love Him, so there's no proving there.

The days we feel empty, and all around everything seems meaningless, and it’s difficult to find something to care about, realize this is just the “old man.” You can’t get use to this reoccurrence, and all that can be done is to just wait it out until it passes; yes it will pass regardless of how...

God made an everlasting covenant with Abraham and his natural seed, and He instituted circumcision as the token, the outward sign of that covenant. “I will establish My covenant between Me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God into thee...

There is a vast difference between us putting away sin, and the Spirit putting it away from us. If the believer could put away sin, where would there be the need for Crist and the Holy Spirit in this service. The Spirit uses the Life of the Lord Jesus to do everything from rebirth to growth in...

The Church in general (not those whom God is using to teach and preach) has been decreasing in maturity and will be at it's most immature state when the Lord Jesus comes for us. This is all due to many of the false teachings that have arisen in the last century. It would require believers to...

Now that the believer has deliverance from the old man’s “damnation” and “dominion” (Ro 8:1; 6:14), there will always be the need for deliverance, not from, but through the trials. It’s been said that the lost need saved, and the saved needs deliverance! Nothing can affect one’s salvation once...

Appreciate the instructional and encouraging reply and comments Brother! Yes, it's as good as if we are there, because we, without fail will be There. We never have to be concerned about who we are and what we do, because it's always towards "pleasing God" (Phil 2:13).

The believer is supposed to see self now as being with the Lord Jesus in heaven; for God has “raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Eph 2:6; Col 2:12, 13; 3:1)! There will be nothing to interrupt the resurrection of the saved; thus it’s as we are in...

This is the kicker--"Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth! (Jhn 16:13).

If one can be misled or deceived concerning the truth, it's only because they are not truly seeking seeking the truth.; for the "elect" cannot be "deceived" (Mat 24:24; Mar 13:22). "Seek, and ye shall find." Thus, if we do not find, it's because we're not seeking! God bless!

Hi, and thanks for the instructional reply! Yes, this all is evidence of those "departing from the faith," that is, from the doctrine of faith but not from faith, because those that "depart" are not saved by faith. True faith always permanently saves. The biggest distraction now is the various...

There are only a couple other translations (Webeter's Bible and Young's Literal Translation) besides the King James that come from manuscripts that are newer than what the new versions come from; but the manuscripts used for the KJV have been the ones most used. The modern translations come from...

The teachings of the kingdom (Millennial Kingdom—NC) have not been applied to any man. Since they anticipate the binding of Satan, a purified earth, the restoration of Israel and the personal reign of the King, they cannot be applied until God’s appointed time when these accompanying conditions...

Hi, and thanks for your reply. The Church consists of all true believers in Christ, as "The Lord adds to the Church daily such as should be saved" (Act 2:47; 2:39; 5:14).

Thanks for the reply, but not sure what you're trying to say. God bless!

Like what you said here! God bless!!

At the present time Christians have fellowship with God via the New Covenant (or New Testament) in His blessed Son! Presently, Jews who believe in God but not in Christ (Jn 14:1) are in union with God but not in fellowship with Him, until their New Covenant has come (Jer 31:31; Eze 36:24-27)...

It's a given that willful sins demonstrate that one is either still a babe-in-Christ and is still learning about sinning, and will eventually give up wanting to sin. Or they are just professing to be a Christian and have yet to receive Christ, confess and repent.
