    A Wheel In The Middle Of A Wheel

    The literal 24 hour creation theory has long since been debunked my friend, it has far to many holes in it. For those who are awake and not prone to ignorance please see our blog post entitled, "The Record of Creation", Parts 30 and 34-36, 38 more specifically.

    A Wheel In The Middle Of A Wheel

    What does the idea of a 7000 year day have to do with the theory of evolution? Please explain how a 7000 year day supports the idea of the theory of evolution? We do however believe that a measure of evolution took place as is suggested by the statement that "the earth brought forth" the...

    Let's Talk About Love!

    The Importance of Love Someone asked Jesus, “Master, which is the great commandment in the law?” There were 3,600 commandments at that time in the Jewish law and the question they put to Jesus was: “which one is the greatest?” Jesus said unto them: “thou shalt LOVE ...” Doesn't this show that...

    Where are the Dead? Part 8

    Now what about our friend’s reference to James 2:26, that “the body without the spirit is dead”, does this not prove his point? He states, “The body is the only part of man that dies at physical death. The reason it dies is because the inner man, the life of the body, leaves the body. It then...

    Where are the Dead? Part 7

    The following comments were made by one of our forum members under the thread “No-one has gone to heaven?” and are typical of the beliefs held by many believers. Note we are not selectively pointing out this individual, but are merely presenting his viewpoint as it representative of the same or...

    Where are the Dead? Part 6

    THE PROPOSITION "The proposition under discussion as stated is a clear admission that the dead are unconscious for the reason it assumes -- that there is to be an awakening. Mark the words thereof, 'that the dead are unconscious from the moment of death until the moment of awakening to the...

    Where are the Dead? Part 5

    DEATH -- SLEEP Since God has made provision for the awakening of the dead to the resurrection, the Bible frequently speaks of death as sleep. Sleep is a symbol of death, and the word is used in that sense. A man lies down to sleep and we say he will wake again. And so we say with reference to...

    Where are the Dead? Part 4

    WHY MEN DIE It is a principle of God's law that every perfect, righteous creature is entitled to life. It follows that every unrighteous creature has no legal right to life. God enforced his judgment against Adam in a gradual manner, viz. -- by forcing Adam out of Eden, where the food was...

    Where are the Dead? Part 3

    THE PENALTY OF THE LAW "God said to Adam, “but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” (Gen 2:17) If the soul is immortal, then God did not mean what he said, because an immortal creature could not be put to...

    Where are the Dead? Part 2

    It is our position that, the scriptures clearly teach that the dead are unconscious between the moment of death and the moment of awakening to the resurrection. If this proposition is not affirmatively true, as stated, then we must conclude: 1. That man, after death, continues mentally active...

    Where are the Dead? Part 1

    This study was raised due to some erroneous assumptions being made on this forum concerning the whereabouts of the dead following death, with some believing they go immediately to heaven or to hell. Excerpts for this study came from a debate entitled “Where are the Dead?” Now both the heathen...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    Sorry my friend but there's no scriptural support for the belief that God gives eternal life to anyone prior to them having been tried, proven and found faithful. If our Lord had to be tried and proven before he received eternal life what makes you think you don't? The word of the Lord is, "Be...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    Your statement here is contradictory, on the one hand you claim John 3:18; 1 John 5:12, 13 and Romans 8:8, 9 speak “vehemently” against the idea that every man must be tested before receiving eternal life. And then you quote Matt 24:24 (?) and John 10:28, 29 as “Proof of being eternally saved...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    As the body is composed of many members so we are all one body in Christ. As grapes when making wine are crushed and lose their individuality, so we likewise lose our individuality and are one in Christ.

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    No we are not Universalist. We believe that the ransom sacrifice of Christ is sufficient for the sins of all men, and as such all men have been saved from the Adamic curse which resides upon them all, this however does not guarantee eternal salvation to any, that will be dependent upon the...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    This is the nominal churches view, and even among many nominal Christians its hard to swallow. Most nominal ministers don't believe it and that is why it is not taught much anymore save by the few "fire and brimstone" teachers still out there, most of these found on the internet as most churches...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    "Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen. And if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty. Yes...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    God's word does not contradict itself, if we find one area in which it states one thing and another where it "seems" to say something in contradiction then we can be assure that the fault lies not with the word of God but with ourselves and with our own understanding and/or lack thereof. In...

    See the blog post, "The Rich Man and Lazarus" for a better understanding of this parable. You might likewise like to see our reply to a forum members suggestion that we, Highlight the parts of Jesus' teaching of his doctrine, "YOU" claim are NOT Factual Truths This is found under another...
