    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    "The Gift of Salvation". Let me make it easier for you. Do you believe that a born again Christian, can go to hell? "losing salvation" means that you once were in the family of God, and now that is lost........and you are no longer.

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    Well, the reason they removed these "books" is because of the content. It didnt continure the linarity of the narrative of the other 66 Books. Its obvious that some of it, or most of it, is just very false and even pagan.......as the writers of some of it, were probably not even Christians.

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    It doesn't say that in the verse. There is no "TO BE Tempted"... there is no "for the purpose of being tempted by the Devil". It says that Jesus was led of the Spirit, into the Wilderness.........and then another verse says that Jesus was Tempted.

    Do you believe you can lose your Salvation,?????? as "the Spirit of God" will never tell you that you can lose your Salvation.

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    You are rewriting the verses. Listen, if you read Luke 4, it says that the spirit led Jesus into the Wilderness. The idea was to fast and pray. It does not say, so that the devil could temp Him. What happened was........the Devil knew He was there, and came and tempted him........as that is...

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    There are 2 KJV, that are authorized. The 2nd is the one we have now......and what they did, was......they "spell checked" it, and changed some of the spelling of words, but nevrer did they touch a verse, in a way that changed it theologically or doctrinally. And it did originally have the...

    Charismatic Bible Studies - 2 Peter 1:5-11

    Its not clear to you at all. You are not understanding "IN ME",.......... as you believe this is your behavior or discipleship, and that has nothing to do with it. Nothing. LOOK CLOSELY.. How do you get "IN" Jesus? How do you get "INTO Christ"? Commandment keeping? Being Good? Water...

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    Same as with you. So, to "Get back to the bible'........ we dont blame God for our temptations, as temptations are your flesh wanting something. See, the thing in and of itself...........is not the temptation. Drug, are not a temp. Money is just money Sex, is authorized by God and created by...

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    Think about this. The NT teaches that "let no person say when they are tempted, that they are tempted of God" Whereas... Satan's entire ministry is a ministry of Tempting you.... so, if a confused person says....>>"well, that is God using Satan to temp you".... = See that nonsense? Jesus...

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    Its the Devil who creates false religions and "christian" theology that "sounds like" its True, but isn't. The Devil is very cunning, and he is the "Father of the Lie"... so, what he does, is.. he mixes in some truth with some untruth, he combines truth with error and creates a hybrid that is...

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    About 1200 yrs before Calvin was born the Catholic Church essentially decided the "66" books of the bible were "canon".

    Charismatic Bible Studies - 2 Peter 1:5-11

    When James is explaining dead faith, he's talking to the the born again. He's not talking to people who are not born again, as in that case... it would not make sense to be talking to unbelievers, about their "dead faith" as they dont have any faith in Christ yet, and are not born again yet. You...

    Charismatic Bible Studies - 2 Peter 1:5-11

    Its possible regarding any believer. This is why we are supposed to stay vigilant, because our enemy goes about looking for someone who has lost focus and is easily tempted.

    Charismatic Bible Studies - 2 Peter 1:5-11

    How does a person who is born again "stall" within their discipleship.? James explains this as "dead faith". So, he then teaches some born again Christians who have it......what to do about it. Like this.. James teaches those with "dead faith.......... = "I'll show you my FAITH, by my...

    Limited atonement !

    That would be the "RSV".

    Limited atonement !

    Pick one. You get to choose. - New International Version He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole World. New Living Translation He himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins—and not only our sins but the sins of all the world...

    Does Christian Universalism deny the justice of God?

    Good guess. But at least you are always willing to try to deny the Bible or try to cast doubt on it... on a "chrisitan" forum, and in this way we can see the intent of your heart as well as your ministry. See, one of the amzing things about the BIble is its God given ability to always...

    How to know that you have : Eternal Life

    Reader, Jesus is Eternal Life...= Its Him. This is why Jesus told us... "if you believe in me, i give unto you ETERNAL LIFE"... And How does the Christian understand what that means........."to have it". Its simple... We understand that Eternal life is not a period of Time........its Jesus...

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    Its not "excessive interpretation" that causes confusion regarding Theology, its lack of spiritual discernment, regarding the verses. Paul teaches us that the word of God, is "spiritually discerned", and that means its revealed by the Spirit of God as our "inner man" understanding, and when...

    How to know that you have : Eternal Life

    Reader , what is Eternal life? Its very simple.... Notice......when Adam rebelled against God's commandment to "do not eat".....this caused the spiritual Union that Adam had with God, to END... to Disconnect. This is defined as "spiritual death'........and this is understood as no longer...
