I might be wrong about this, but what I think Polt is saying is that faith without doctrine is dead. Doctrine simply means instruction; and the doctrine of Christ is instruction in how to walk in Christ. Faith without this doctrine is possibly not faith at all and subsequently meaningless. At...

And he said to them, “So are you also without understanding? Do you not understand that everything [that is] outside that goes into a person [is] not able to defile him? For it does not enter into his heart but into his stomach, and goes out into the latrine”purging all foods. And he said, “What...

What's funny is that people who get into this OT prophet mode think they're being super spiritual or something, yet don't realize that the prophets saw nothing in comparison to what we see. Not only see, but what we actually are. We have the very focus of OT prophecy living within us. We see...

Many of them are hirelings who don't hear the voice of GOD. Just because they go to divinity school and get an education, then hang a diploma on their wall doesn't necessarily mean they're anointed or worthy of respect. Quite the contrary. Many of them view religious leadership as an occupation...

(Sigh... schools just aren't getting the job done these days...) Question: DO those such as yourself "that are under the new covenant," those who "have the holy spirit as the inward sign that they are being sanctified" - your words - call Sunday "the Sabbath"? Just answer that question and we...

And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. But ye [shall] not [be] so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. For whether [is]...

Receiving an inheritance is easy; holding onto it afterwards is not so easy. The inheritance still belongs to the inheritor, but many influences will seek to steal it. For the time [is come] that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if [it] first [begin] at us, what shall the end [be]...

Water, meet duck's feathers. KCKID's sanctimonious posturing, meet CRFTD's attitude. Those such as myself? No.

Why don't you provide some scriptural context so we can better understand what you're talking about?

Uh, uh ... I said nothing about a Sunday sabbath. Reading comprehension requires understanding what the author was saying, not reading into what was said something you want to see. Go back and repeat Reading Comprehension Skills 101. The teacher must have passed you just to get you out of her...

Why did you leave off bolding the rest of the sentence to create the impression that some had not sinned? death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression Paul is clearly saying that death reigned over, not those who hadn't...

I read somewhere that protestants replaced an 'inerrant' pope as the final authority with and 'inerrant' book as the same.

I would add the clarification (for the sake of avoiding a stumbling block) that the full attainment of eternal life is by no means easy; it is secured through much difficulty due to our old natures and the world we live in. Access to eternal life, though, is easy because it is an inward river of...

This is a completely false statement. We were never under the old covenant, which passed away long ago. The sabbath for those under that covenant served as an outward sign that they were being sanctified. Those of us under the new covenant have the holy spirit as the inward sign that we are...

Laid, regarding your daughter, verse 7 is for you.

Is love toward my neighbors expressed by being a do-gooder, or by treating them like I would like to be treated? Also, Adam didn't decide that he could determine good and evil; he decided to disobey and in doing so knew evil and became one with it. It wasn't a dualistic worldview, it was...

Don't confuse the authority of the world with spiritual authority, because they are not the same.

Truth is authority. Those who speak truth have authority. But there remained two [of the] men in the camp, the name of the one [was] Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the spirit rested upon them; and they [were] of them that were written, but went not out unto the tabernacle: and they...

That's just a farfetched theory that the 'lost' ten tribes maintained their identity and migrated to Europe and then accepted Christ. That is merely speculation and wishful thinking; no substance. The ten tribes were absorbed by their surrounding cultures, intermarried, and were no longer called...

You're bearing false witness. Not a spiritually healthy thing to do.
