I think we need to remember that our intellectual capacity is very limited in matters of understanding God's purposes. Just because we fail to understand something it does not discount God's wisdom. We must by faith put our trust in him.

Your sense of humor makes up for any of your flaws.

Putting off the old man is a daily chore. Peace to you my Brother in Christ.

I have a little battle each day with my flesh. My weakness is that I do not have the courage to pluck my eyes out.

The earth will be destroyed just like God tells us in the book of Revelation. If you believe in the millennial reign of Christ at his second coming then Climate change is not an issue.

I agree that Faith has been God's plan all along but I'm referring to the administration of man throughout the ages. The obvious is there was no cross before Jesus's death, burial, and resurrection. The mosaic law with its various rituals. Today most understand we no longer sacrifice a goat or...

A person led by his flesh is a sinner by definition, sins without spiritual conviction, and has no desire to stop. A person led by the Spirit still sins but is convicted, seeks forgiveness, and desires to avoid sin. A person led by the flesh is a sinner by nature, a person led by the Spirit is...

I do not believe that anything exists that God did not create. UFO's I suspect could be Satan's fallen angels. Not little green men.

Salvation by faith alone is of the Spirit. Any action taken by the flesh is a works. If some will take the time to study the scripture beyond Acts they will with the help of the Holy Spirit understand that getting wet does not save you. A born-again person demotes the desires of the flesh and is...

Yes it is futile. Calvinism is a religion in itself. Even the Angels had the ability to reject God. Calvinists have out of necessity built false doctrine upon doctrine. In a sense, they limit God's abilities. God did foreknow what our choices would be but he is God enough to let us decide. God...

"You are Christ the Son of the living God" is the rock that the Church will be built on.

Even using your view the fact that Paul used Peter as an example is telling.

Faith alone for salvation. Evidence of salvation is works. Works are not necessary for salvation. Really difficult for someone to check the box on a list of works after finding Jesus from a hospital bed facing death or the soldier storming the beach at Normandy who was saved two days prior on...

Acts 2:38 Peter was still preaching water baptism as necessary for salvation. The Cornelius experience and the Holy Spirit corrected his thinking. The disciples Paul encountered had not been baptized in the Holy Spirit but certainly had been baptized in water. Apollo didn't know about the...

The thief joined David and the other O.T. Saints in Sheol. It is my understanding that Sheol is divided into two places, Paradise and Hades. (Lazurus & the poor man). I do not think he was there long. I think those in Paradise were taken to Heaven when Jesus ascended into Heaven.

Why would it be difficult to understand that the Eunuch had heard of the Gospel preached by the Apostles and some understanding on baptism? Someone telling him is not a sign of faith. We do not know what he had heard prior.

I enjoy an honest debate with the purpose of strengthening all parties' understanding. We never stop learning. BUT I see no purpose in entertaining outlandish false doctrine. In fact, I should be made to stand in the corner on one leg for even giving them my time. Over and Out.

The RCC is one if not the most ritualistic religions in the world. I can't help but recall those who had the most trouble with Jesus during his early ministry were the religious zealots of the day. The RCC has taken its focus off the first love of the church, Jesus Christ. Jesus is simply not...
