    Is The Soul Immortal?

    Foreigner...what you call room to wiggle out of...I call the Truth of the matter. First we have take the time to understand what Jesus is talking about. The idea of blotting out people's names from the Book of Life is first mentioned in Exodus 32:32, but it also appears in Deuteronomy 29:20...

    Is The Soul Immortal?

    Foreigner...let me try to defend my position and advanced "insight" from the scriptures. The "fiery law" (Deut. 33:2) that He gave on Mount Horeb reflected His character. No man saw God Himself, but only fire, which was the visible expression of Himself (Deut. 4:12, 15). The verbal expression...

    Is The Soul Immortal?

    Foreigner...I use to believe just what you are saying about these same scriptures until God began to give me ears to hear what the SPIRIT was saying and not what I assumed God was saying because I was taught it by a man. So let's talk about Judgment a little bit. The primary reason why people...

    Is The Soul Immortal?

    Foreigner...it's a matter of rightly dividing the "word of truth" and understanding everyone will not be saved in this Age, But eventally, the unsaved will be raised to be judged. Man's judgement and God's judgement is totally different. The flesh "man" judges out of his carnal mind while God...

    Is The Soul Immortal?

    Bigape...you're correct...I believe Universalist are wrong but, I do believe God will eventually save mankind. Let me try to explain. In Isaiah 45:23-25, which says, 23 I have sworn by Myself [God's vow], the Word has gone forth from My mouth in righteousness and will not turn back, that to...

    Is The Soul Immortal?

    That is a great question Pegg and I will try to explain it if I can. The problem is man has taught for many centuries that God is vindicative so it's not hard to believe God can do something like raise up sinners just to humiliate them for a time. But what does the scriptures say? The covenant...

    Mosaic Law For Christians

    I would like you to explain the statement that Paul made to the Galations in Gal. 3:26, 26 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are...

    Mosaic Law For Christians

    The Promise came first and was unconditionally given to Abraham and his seed. The Law of Moses could not--and did not--change this fact. But the Will of God was revealed through Moses, as if the heirs were able to get a preview of it prior to the death of the Testator. When the Law said...

    Mosaic Law For Christians

    fivesense...you are really tuff and I must say you make me dig and also it causes me to confirm even more what I believe. So I want to thank you ahead a time for your diligence and your your ability to make me check myself and see if I really believe the Gospel. When Paul speaks of...

    Mosaic Law For Christians

    fivesence...I don't want to have anything to do with the covenant that God made with the Israelites under Moses other than learning from their mistakes and realizing that no one can be justified whether a Jew or Gentile alike under that covenant. As for as "Promises", that's a different story...

    Mosaic Law For Christians

    fivesence...As I have already said, the law itself is not the problem. The problem is the Old Covenant, which required men to keep the law in order to be justified. The New Covenant did not put away the law but is the promise of God to write it on our hearts by the power of His Spirit...

    Mosaic Law For Christians

    fivesence...that is the point I'm trying to make...it's not about the Law being done away with but, it is about justification and how it is applied now. Those who teach that the Gentiles are saved by faith, while Jews are saved by the law, never seem to understand that Abraham himself was...

    Mosaic Law For Christians

    fivesence...I have some hope...thank God we agree on something. I do appreciate and respect your knowledge of the scriptures and I have learned some things from you also. Now it's time to make you mad...just kidding. In Galatians 2:11-13 Paul tells how he confronted Peter in his hypocritical...

    Mosaic Law For Christians

    Gal. 1:6, 6 I am amazed that you are so quickly deserting Him who called you by the grace of Christ, for a different gospel; (7) which is not really another; only there are some who are disturbing you, and want to distort the gospel of Christ. This is no side issue for Paul. To distort...

    What Is God's Definition Of Sin?

    Skyangel...I'm not going to be ugly to you for that last comment but, I have a question for you. Can you walk through a wall without using the door and sit down and say give me something to eat like Jesus did? If you can...I would like to invite you over for some coffee and I will listen to...

    What Is God's Definition Of Sin?

    I agree with what you are saying Shyangel but, there is a process that we go through in order to achieve the full redemption from the Father. At the present time, Christ in us is in a type of embryonic form, not yet brought to full birth. Its due date is the Feast of Tabernacles of some...

    What Is God's Definition Of Sin?

    When God gave the law, He set the standard of perfection (righteousness) that God intended man to live by. When Adam fell, man lost the ability to live up to that perfect standard. Hence, the need for a Sacrifice by which we may obtain forgiveness for sin. When we come into the full image...

    Is Almighty God Partial?

    When we identify nations discussed in the Bible, it should be clearly understood that nations are not individuals. In every nation there are good and bad, the same as with Judah when Jeremiah 24 prophesied of the good and evil figs. One's nationality, race, or genealogy may well indicate a...

    Obedience

    Wow...that's very good Pegg. Like Jacob, we become Israelites by a change in our character. We must all learn the same lesson that Jacob learned. It is the lesson that we are not more powerful than God. It is the lesson that we should have faith in the sovereignty of God and not try to help...
