How people answer the question, "Are you a Christian" can often tell you if they are or not. I've gotten answers like "My husband and I were both raised that way", and "Of course, I'm an American." Before I was saved on May 18, 1963, I would have answered that with, "No, but I'm a good person."...

That's like asking if Jesus replaced Himself since Jesus is God. God is a triune God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Welcome to the Christianity Board.

Welcome to the Christianity Board. One forum I joined, I posted about 60 times before finding the introduction forum halfway down the page. I always start at the top and work my way down.

I welcomed you somewhere--must not have been here. So welcome to the Christianity Board.

Since they will be witnessing for Christ during the tribulation, I would say that they are Christians. Many will come to Christ during the tribulation as people realize that what they had heard all their lives was actually true after all when the bride of Christ (the church) is removed (and many...

It very well could. I keep praying for God's judgment on this world for it's acceptance of wickedness and rejection of God's word--calling good evil and evil good.

No, because answering the call to "Come unto me all ye who labor and are heavyladen, and I will give you rest" is up to each individual. God knew that not everyone would come to Him, and that most would reject Him.

Welcome to the Christianity Board.

Sin is defined for me by the Holy Spirit. I cannot sin or even think about sinning without the Holy Spirit convicting me. The originator of sin was Lucifer when he spoke his five "I will" statements in Isaiah 14:13,14. "I will ascend into heaven; I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I...

I am a slave to seeking God's favor in all I do. I may not be perfect (yet), but I have been freed from sin's penalty.

I haven't read "Enoch" because it isn't in my Bible. I've often wondered how men (by the Holy Spirit's guidance, maybe?) knew what writings were from God and what wasn't. Some of what Paul wrote was just his opinion, and he said so. I've often wondered what purpose much of what is in what we...

I don't like pain--no matter how minor. I won't poke holes in myself or let anyone else do it--except a doctor or nurse. I've seen some attractive small tattoos, but some people go to extremes. Too many tattoos or piercings (in my opinion) are NOT attractive but quite the opposite. However, to...

I'm not talking about less than "perfect". I would have been happy with a less than "perfect" childhood if I had just received love and a little less abuse from my dad. Do you not read the news where children are often abused by their parents emotionally, physically, and sexually, and many are...

Welcome to the Christianity Board, Irene.

Yes, I do.

Welcome to the Christianity Board.

I don't believe that God's wrath (the great tribulation) is meant for the Church (the believers), but it is meant only for the unbelievers. That is why the church isn't mentioned in Rev. 4 through 18.

The church isn't mentioned in chapters 4-18; the next mention of them is in chapter 19 when the bride of Christ is mentioned in heaven.

I take the words in Eph. 4:30, "Ye are sealed unto the day of redemption", to mean that we are eternally secure and that NOTHING and NO ONE can break that seal--including me. Any sin I commit causes my fellowship with my Saviour to be broken un til I confess that sin, but it does NOT break the...
