    Revealing the Sons of God.

    Veteran... do you not know that the saints will judge the world? Paul was talking to a bunch of carnal Christians. Why did he waste his time telling them something that didn't pertain to them? Because it does pertain to them. The goal is for them and even us to overcome as mature Sons of God...

    Revealing the Sons of God.

    Yes Jeffweeder... I see what you are saying and I agree with your analogy. What we need to recognize @ this stage of our process of becoming a "Chosen Generation" is God is preparing us to take over the world. As we submit ourselves to God in our everyday life, @ some point God is going to...

    Revealing the Sons of God.

    What are you talking about Veteran? I never said there wouldn't be unbelieving nations in the Tabernacles Age. Daniel tells us how it will come about. Dan. 2:35 says, 35 "Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were crushed all at the same time and became like chaff from...

    Revealing the Sons of God.

    That's some very good questions Jeffweeder... let's first understand that there is more than one resurrection. The first resurrection is limited to just believers, while the second or general resurrection will be believers and also non-believers. Let me try to explain. Rev. 20:6 says, 6...

    Is Jesus God?

    I and my Father are ONE... John 10:30... but let's read on... 30 " I and the Father are one." 31 The Jews picked up stones again to stone Him. 32 Jesus answered them, "I showed you many good works from the Father ; for which of them are you stoning Me?" 33 The Jews answered Him, "For a good...

    Judgment...

    If a christian isn't mature enough to judge a matter, I suggest he waits until the Lord has given him wisdom in this area. Gal. 6:1 says, 1 Brethren, even if anyone is caught in any trespass, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness ; each one looking to yourself...

    Judgment...

    Jesus didn't say not to judge... He said, when you judge... judge in righteousness. John 7:24 says, 24 "Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment." We must learn how to judge before we judge anyone or anything. God judges our judgment by looking in our hearts to...

    Redemption... Hopeless for some souls?

    1st John 2:2 says, 2 and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins ; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world. His Blood covered all sins two thousand years ago... so no one is hopeless, because of the act that was performed by Jesus Christ. He purchased the whole...

    The Truth About Born Again Christians

    Every time the disciples went to a different city where the gospel hadn't been preached the first thing they did was baptise them in the name of Jesus and lay their hands on them that they might receive the Holy Ghost. Acts 8:15-16 says, 15 who came down and prayed for them that they might...

    What Is A Birth From Above?

    Being born of the water is the great commission that Jesus commanded us to do when we went into "ALL NATIONS". Mathew 28:19-20 says, 19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe...

    Who is Israel?

    I totally agree with your analogy. Paul said, we go from glory to glory. In other words, our spiritual eyes are being open to the things of God. We must continue to grow in grace, not for salvation, we are already a citizen in the Kingdom, but now we want to be a king and a priest in the...

    Who is Israel?

    Bob, that is a very good question. None of us are perfect, but we can become mature. Does that mean we will never fail again. I don't think so, but as you grow in grace you will handle your failures differently. The key to being an Overcomer is not some super spiritual warrior, but it is someone...

    The Truth About Born Again Christians

    1st Peter 3:21 says, 21 Corresponding to that, baptism now saves you- not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience -through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, It saves you by obedience to the Word. If you don't get baptised, how will you receive a good...

    Who is Israel?

    They could be any ethnic group including Jews and Israelites. God looked @ genetics in the Old Covenant, but He looks @ character in the New. Let me explain... Luke 12:42-44, 42 And the Lord said, "Who then is the faithful and sensible steward, whom his master will put in charge of his...

    Who is Israel?

    Let's split a few hairs so everyone else who reads can judge for themselves. Gen. 32:28 says, 28 And he said, “Your name shall no longer be Jacob, but Israel; for you have striven with God and with men and have prevailed.” Dr. Bullinger writes in his notes on Gen. 32:28 in The Companion...

    Who is Israel?

    Who is Israel? True Israel is christian believers that have become mature Sons of God. In essence, they have accepted correction in the wilderness of this life. They could be any ethnic group including Jews and Israelites. God looked @ genetics in the Old Covenant, but He looks @ character in...

    Can You Lose Your Salvation ?

    Veteran... the only reason Judah wasn't included in the scattering of Israel was because the Messiah had to be born in Bethlehem. They were protected by God until Jesus Christ came through the line of Judah. But we all know what happened in 70 AD to 73 AD, God sent His armies to scatter and...

    Can You Lose Your Salvation ?

    Many are called whether you are Jew, Israelite, or from another nation (gentile). God isn't interested in genetics, He is interested in your character. In order to be chosen you have to go through Pentecost (trials for the purpose of learning the art of obedience), where in the end God looks @...
