(kriss;9817) whats OSAS? It is an abbreviation for "Once Saved, Always Saved". I am sure Swamp fox can explain to you much better than I.Calvinists believe that those who will be saved, will be saved no matter what (decided even before they were born). They are almost the same thing.

Calvinists are claiming OSAS. If so, why does Jesus warn His seven churches in the book of Revelation to be faithful to Him until the end?

(B'midbar;9789) Perhaps then we would like to discuss line by line what we think about this section of Hebrews, 5:11 onward means:This definitely talks about people who need some milk. How does it strike you when it talks about trained by practice to distinguish good from evil? Is this the...

(betchevy;9779) .. babies need the whole word too... I just disagree, and Paul says nothing about not finishing the milk stage, but rather talks about getting on and growing up... I just don't know why you have all these threads about the same thing... you need to move on, lets get into the word...

Apostle Paul talks about milk and meat stages of our walk. When we go to meat stage without thoroughly finishing the milk stage, we will not be any use for God's purpose. It is very clear that Mainstreams are neglecting the milk stage which is reading the New Testament thoroughly and striving to...

You are trying to earn salvation by works!!! This is so cheap gimmick used by mainstreams. All Jesus' followers know that no one can earn salvation by works, period. It is plainly stated in the New Testament. Christians who are working hard are just following Jesus' commands. Jesus tells us that...

Chrsitians ought to concentrate on preaching Jesus. Why do you even consider following the world's trend? We live in the world but we should not be of the world.

(sevver;9718) I honestly feel that a new Christian should begin with the reading of the New Testament. I think that it should be understood before anything else happens. Out of that, should be a reading of the Old Testament, I honestly don't think that I could have kept reading the Old...

It is very clear, according to the Bible, that we are getting very close to tribulation. How do we prepare for it? Read the Bible daily and strive to obey everything you are learning, then you will be well prepared. This is God's assurance!!!

Yes, taking time for yourself to read the Bible is important and blessing. It is just too bad that people don't realize how it is blessing rather than burdensome.

All the solutions are in the NT. We don't have to look into OT to find the solutions about daily lives. I realize this statement was kind of weak. All I meant was that NT can be so useful and practical for our daily lives for evangelism and good witnessing. I apologize for poor expression.

I also would like to add that OT is very interesting for deep studying. It is so exciting to read them all. But NT is so useful for young and new believers. You can be good witnessing and evangelist right away if you have been reading it daily and striving to obey evethying you are learning. I...

Would you show me when I ever said we don't need OT, please? I don't believe I ever commented any such thing because I value ALL Scriptures NT and OT.thank you

Everytime when I mention about importance of reading the New Testament, I get nagative, resenful respons without exception.New Testament has been treated lightly by churches. I believe it is because the NT is clearly explaining about our responsibility as His servants and good witnessing. The...

I would like to add that we should not condemn Christians striving to be godly witnesses for the Lord by saying they are trying to earn Salvation by good works. Satan loves to hear this kind of condemnation.

(uglyGuy;9598) i am so angry at for god creating me 'ugly' that i dont even want to be a christian anymore. how could god do this to one of his own children? is this some sick joke he playing at my expense?I am in my late 20s, single, no dates in years, and i dont get any attention from the...

How harmful and damaging is lukewarm or half hearted christianity? Their lives will be bad witnesses for God. When we are not showing godly lives, who will pay attention to what we have to say about God and Jesus. We have responsibility to reach out to the world.

This question stems from the fact that our God as described by the Bible is a paradox, and atheists are always ready to jump all over this. The Bible lists that God is omnipotent, and omniscient among other attributes. But there is a logical contradiction when trying to explain omnipotence: it's...

(betchevy;8555) do you think that is the norm? Most I hear of have life changes for the better, espcially those near miss suicides... I think there is a best selling book on those and like 99% were so glad to be alive.... I am saying that people are not exactly changing for godly causes. there...

We hear many stories about near-death experiences. It is amazing how we interprete what God is trying to tell us through these kinds of experiences, when a person shouldn't survive something, but does. It is very clear that God is trying to get people's attention when that happens but...
