    Abandon Faith = Abandon God = Abandon Salvation = Hell

    I do not think God made Eve sin. I do not think God makes forces you to have faith. I do not define belief and faith as a work toward salvation. God didn't force a person to become a rapist nor did he force a missionary to dedicate their lives to mission work. God did not make man without the...

    Church Bashing

    I think for some this could be true but that also opens a complicated discussion. Some Churches simply do not need another bowling alley. We should support the Church we attend. A Church has real expenses, utilities, possibly a mortgage, the salary of the pastor, maintenance etc. Some Churches...

    Can the seal be broken? Lack of trust? Grieve the Holy Spirit?

    Not mine but certainly the understanding of some especially those in the hyper-grace movement.

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Corruption has dominated the CC from its earliest days. The forged Donation of Constantine was the foundation to establishing false power and authority. The leadership has deceived millions for their own power and greed. We cannot count the number of souls led into deception by the CC. I have to...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    No. I do not believe in hocus pocus. The CC has materialized the spiritual. In your mass, you actually worship a pancake (wafer) made by nuns. Efficacious salvation to the dead, your false prayers for the dead in a false purgatory. No matter how many candles you burn your priest cannot save...

    Church Bashing

    Don't take the bait.

    Church Bashing

    Yes but the scriptures tell us that many will wax cold, many will be deceived, many have hardened hearts. Many will be lost.

    Church Bashing

    I cannot remain silent in regard to what I believe in false doctrine not because I hate but because time is running out and my hope is to open the eyes of those deceived. I do not feel compelled to beat anyone into any belief but only to point to the truth. God takes care of the rest. I just...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Every belief I have is confirmed in the scriptures. I test all input of knowledge and theology. I look to God's word as my source. As I explained to you once that unless you demote your flesh and promote your Spirit you will never understand the Holy Spirits' role in knowledge, wisdom, and the...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Galatians 6:9: "And let us not be weary in well-doing; for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Silly Mary of course I do. The RCC church is a sad story of heretics and false teachings starting around 400 AD and continues today. Its most proud moments are in the dark ages. They were in fact trying to keep the uninformed in darkness and without knowledge by doing everything they could to...

    Can the seal be broken? Lack of trust? Grieve the Holy Spirit?

    The cross, the blood, God's saving grace provided a pathway to salvation for those who thru faith believed. Jesus didn't drag you or anyone else into salvation. The cross didn't give you a ticket to Heaven without your faith. OSAS believers always try to correlate his saving grace with the...

    Abandon Faith = Abandon God = Abandon Salvation = Hell

    It is true that grace is a gift from God and not based upon anything we do but we must accept it. It is not forced upon us. Paul reminds us to examine ourselves (he was talking to the Church), to be steadfast, not to be deceived, not to disqualify ourselves from the Kingdom by committing...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    The Hersey and false teachings from the Roman Catholic Church were in their infant stage in 110 AD. It was later that the RCC fell from the truth. If you desire to look at historical facts concerning the behavior of the Catholic Church you will be disappointed. You and I both know that during...

    Abandon Faith = Abandon God = Abandon Salvation = Hell

    Man can deny that he is in Jesus's hand. He can confess that he is not in need of Jesus's hand. Is it your assessment that 1 Timothy 4:1 is a lie? That some will not depart from the faith?

    Can the seal be broken? Lack of trust? Grieve the Holy Spirit?

    I'm thankful that I do not need the false belief in OSAS to be true. I do not need to cling to that false belief to justify my life decisions.

    Astral Projection: The Devil's Playground

    Without the Holy Spirit within us, we are an open vessel and can easily be filled with unclean spirits.

    Abandon Faith = Abandon God = Abandon Salvation = Hell

    My view is that those who remain in the flock will not perish but those who depart will perish. There are several verses in the Bible that speak of salvation (how to be saved). We know that John 3:16 is different than Acts 2:38 and Romans 10:9-11. They are all true but not all are verses about...

    Can the seal be broken? Lack of trust? Grieve the Holy Spirit?

    1 Timothy 4:1 cannot be twisted. You can depart from the faith. Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

    Abandon Faith = Abandon God = Abandon Salvation = Hell

    It is my belief that if we are servants and followers of Jesus he will never cast us out or allow us to be plucked out. It does look to me that Paul is telling us that we can by our own election depart from the faith.
