You're just speaking from a position of unbelief and ignorance. Everything in the old covenant was a shadow. The law was a shadow. The 4th commandment was a shadow. They all point to the reality, who is Christ. For the law having a shadow of good things to come, [and] not the very image of the...

Yeah I remember those days. Try something different. Instead of paying attention to how you feel, look around and see if there's something you can do for someone: compliment, encouragement, errand, etc. If it feels good do it again. Just an experiment. btw, you seem pretty intelligent and...

Yep, heaven is coming to earth. I think the world will be filled with cities.

What does that have to do with anything? He's going to church, not a job.

How does the holy nation deal with those in its midst who bear false witness of GOD? And how does its citizens learn Christ without doctrine (which differs little in definition from dogma)? I'm not advocating a religious power class, so don't get me wrong. I am trying to discern, though, if you...

Then said they to him, 'What can we do, that we may work the works of God?' Jesus answered and said to them, 'This is the work of God: that you believe into the one [the father] set apart.' John 6:28-29

She is unique. Most blessed of all women born, IMO. Astonishing faith. Highly favored and full of grace? Absolutely. Sinless? No. Christ's sinlessness was inherited from his father; all inheritances passed through the father, not the mother.

Very good. When we repent of unbelief, we find the problem of sin is taken care of. I do learn things from you.

is this meshak Yes or No? :)

I think you're missing the point. GOD is not going to torment anyone. He will allow them, though, to have what they want most, which an existence without him. That will be their torment, when they realize what they have thrown away. It is self-inflicted, not GOD-inflicted.

Most cultists, self-righteous deluded nutcases and false teachers/prophets under the umbrage of christianity feel this way. It is fruit of the self idolatry worked by the mystery of iniquity. Sons of darkness reject sons of light; and sons of light reject sons of darkness. Rejection in and of...

And my answer to your answer was: If the opportunity exists to repent in death, what's the point of fearing GOD in this life? The fact that Jesus sternly warned his disciples to fear GOD while living can only mean that there is no opportunity to repent after death. There is no salvation without...

http://www.christianityboard.com/topic/18253-is-there-opportunity-to-repent-after-death/#entry195604 Actually aionios doesn't mean age; it derives from the word that means age. Aionios means perpetual, unending. It is used in that sense in Hebrews 9:12, 2 Corinthians 4:18, 1 Peter 5:10...

Meshak, is that you?

Here's a link to lots of 3rd party-made modules - http://www.douglashamp.com/theword-books/ If you need help with anything, let me know.

Since κεχαριτωμένη (kecharitomene) only exists once in the bible, and apparently doesn't occur at all in the LXX, it seems pretty pointless to quibble over its meaning. We simply don't have enough information to know for sure that it means this or that. Even if it does mean 100% full of grace...

I'm beginning to realize that it's not a matter of distance, per se, but of power. I could be completely covered with sin, but if it has no power over me, it's irrelevant. It's like dead skin or something. The strength and power of sin is the law. We are dead to the law and consequently, to its...

Alan, Here it is - Kecharitomene: και εισελθών ο άγγελος προς αυτήν είπε χαίρε κεχαριτωμένη ο κύριος μετά σου ευλογημένη συ εν γυναιξίν Luke 1:28 What Greek text are you looking at?
