    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    @David in NJ, Was Jesus standing in front of you when he said those things to his disciples? That is more of the question. There are many people who take Jesus and his words and misapply them when he was indeed speaking to his apostles (Matthew 10), from John 14 - 15. When Jesus says "I...

    Is God sending people straight to hell when they die, today?

    @ScottA, many people just say heaven or hell.

    Paul: The Law is a Ministration of Death, 2 Cor. 3:7.

    I would also agree with you on this too, I believe that because of the Lord Jesus Christ, and becoming adopted calling out to the Father. You are part of the heavenly kingdom now because the Kingdom of God resides with-in your heart, as you put God on your heart, say "the throne of your heart"...

    Paul: The Law is a Ministration of Death, 2 Cor. 3:7.

    Pursing a life, and building up spiritual treasures and abiding in Christ if one chooses to is far better than anything one can experience, it's an inexpressible joy. I like what Peter writes to his audience, about that. And what Jesus speaks about the treasures, speaking to his disciples,

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    Did you not hear me say "there are spiritual principles that you can glean from them..." However when it comes to say Jesus talks about the Olivet discourse, people make that out for today, but it is not for today. How in the world are you gonna make this be for anyone today?

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    People suggest "Read that bible" if you are gonna "read that bible, you need to do rightly and properly." Paul wrote about this to Timothy in his second letter.

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    Sorry if you desire to go against the truth... Contextual reasoning supports that Jesus was talking to his disciples... to say Jesus is speaking to you directly is a falsehood. You can disagree but it still holds water that Jesus never spoke to you directly, and these Gospels are recordings of...

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    There are spiritually gleanings you can get from it, but to say Jesus is speaking to you directly... Is a lie. Let's look at the previous chapter...

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    No. That would be illogical reasoning. Just read the prior, Chapter... There are gleanings you can get from it spiritually but no he is not talking to you specifically. That would be a lie.

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    That is a myth I heard when I was growing up from a older man I knew. He said "one day people will come and round up your family, and start slaughtering them until you decide to take the mark." That was told me 16 years ago, and he wasn't no prophet cause still in 2023 nothing has happened...

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    In context, Jesus is speaking to his Chosen disciples, in the prior chapter, these are still very good verses to glean from and apply spiritually in your life to abide in Christ, to love one another, and to remain in Christ love, but it is a choice, to abide in Him. To believe on the one whom...

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    I don't pay much attention to the world, @amigo de christo. People make their choice, just like Saul did and did evil in sight of the LORD. He could have repented but he chose not to, and in the end he died. Jesus Christ came to save the world. People just love darkness more than the light.

    Paul: The Law is a Ministration of Death, 2 Cor. 3:7.

    Been in it for a while now @Bob Estey. It's hard to pick up your cross and die to your own will, and abide in Christ Jesus, and to walk by the Spirit : every single day of your life, until you die. Romans 8:17 and if children, then heirs — heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if so it be...

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    I know what you are talking about, @amigo de christo, I don't agree with you though. Sorry. You say a lot of things but it doesn't mean it is true. I guess the day I see Christians getting slaughtered I'll know but I doubt ill ever see that in my life time... I really truly don't believe...

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    Paul called for all people to live at peace with each other if is possible.

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    @amigo de christo People will go out seeking to be persecuted just feel "persecuted" What Paul is talking about is suffering with Christ... That is a total different subject than the on you are bringing up, or that @David in NJ is now bringing up...
