This thread is the epitome of what is wrong with professing Christianity, specifically Protestants. Any time somebody emphasizes obedience to what the Bible plainly teaches, Protestants immediately project their own distaste for God's authority on those people as belonging to a "cult" that is...

It's pretty hypocritical and ironic that you say this, because mainstream Protestants elevate the doctrines of the Reformers and other self appointed pastors like the heralded "church fathers" to an equal or even greater standing than the doctrines that are actually taught in the Bible.

Psa. 83:1-8 tells us which countries are prophesied to attack Judah soon, and Russia isn't one of them. Furthermore, it is also prophesied that the Jewish nation will NOT be protected by Him when this German-led attack comes because(as Isa. 10:5-6 and other passages show) God will be directing...

The mark will definitely not be something physical because Rev. 14:9-12 and 20:4 juxtaposes the people who refuse the mark as people who keep God's commandments and believe what He says against the people in this world who engage in false religion. And since Rom. 7:14 says the 10 commandments...

Loving God and loving one's neighbor is a summation of the 10 commandments. How do you show true love to God? By not putting anything or anyone in God's place, by not worshiping Him falsely, by not misusing His name, and by keeping His Sabbaths. How do you love other human beings? By honoring...

1. The context of God prohibiting the cutting of beards is about the way the Canaanite men would trim their beards into certain shapes or patterns as a way of worshiping their sun gods and/or fertility gods. Contrary to widespread assumptions, it has nothing to do with someone trimming a beard...

The first paragraph is exactly why your argument is built on a false foundation. If the Scriptures doesn't explicitly state that Sunday is now the Sabbath, then you have no biblical basis to base such a belief on. And as a consequence, you're doing exactly what Christ rebuked the Pharisees for...

This argument is a textbook case of why Paul warned Timothy to be on the lookout against people who deceitfully handle the Bible. Literally none of those passages say God changed the rest day from Saturday to Sunday. This is human reasoning speaking, and not the Bible. God only consecrated 1...

The foundational problem with your position Randy is that your version of historical events is a total lie. Constantine embraced and enforced what was already a paganized perversion of biblical Christianity, and the "church fathers" were made up of false converts and apostates who left the true...

Both of you need to be corrected in your theology. First of all, GracePeace, Paul was NOT criticizing the Galatians for keeping the Law. He was criticizing them for backsliding into paganism. Paul makes this absolutely clear in Gal. 4:8-9 where he says "Before you Gentiles knew God, you were...

Christ said whoever expects eternal life had better keep God's commandments in Matt. 19:17, so the Bible disagrees with you when you say keeping the Sabbath is optional. As John said, a person is a liar if they say they know God while refusing to keep His commandments. And liars will have no...

The deceptive nature of the Protestants' "faith alone" doctrine is that it allows them to interpret the Bible however they want and call themselves Christian instead of believing or doing what the Bible actually says. The term "Protestant" is so appropriate for such a person.

Christ told a parable about a nobleman leaving to receive a kingdom for himself(Luk. 19) because the disciples assumed He would immediately begin His rule as King. Gabriel was 100% clear when he told Mary that when Christ ruled as King, it would be from David's throne(Luk. 1:32), and that throne...

There is a problem with your argument here. You say Christians are to live by faith rather than knowledge, but the Bible disagrees with you in at least 3 passages: - 2 Pet. 3:18: "but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ" - Rom. 10:27: "So then faith comes by...

Spousal abuse certainly isn't biblical grounds for a divorce, but i also have to disagree with the premise that there are no biblical grounds for the victim being able to separate themselves from their abuser under any circumstances: "But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be...

I was with you right up until you trotted out the classic Romanist talking point that the Sabbath was a "shadow of the rest Christ gives". That is dishonest a claim as a summer day is long, not to mention ignorant of what the Scriptures teach, especially because Paul never said such a thing...

I have to disagree on a couple of issues: 1. College education is NOT the key to success. The key to success is the true education that comes from the Bible. Like most things in this society, higher education is based on around rejecting God as Maker of the universe. Just look at the fact that...

Everything Paul taught in regards to the gathering of the saints is supposed to be read in context with a) what Christ clearly prophesied in Matt. 24 when He said the saints won't be gathered until after the Tribulation and b) Zech. 14 clearly showing the gathered saints in Jerusalem with...

They're about as high they were when Jimmy Carter was president, so it's pretty bad.

I don't even know why people think spending another trillion dollars is a great for a proposal that hasn't been elaborated on more transparently when the national debt is nearing $30 trillion in debt. This is one of the things that highlights my problem with both parties because Reps only have a...
