When the text spoke of ALL people, that was inclusive of unbelievers. The test doesn't contain the definite article "the" people, but speaks of people in a totally expansive grammatical construct. Those who were instructed that they must endure unto the end are those who will live during the...

I'm still waiting for anyone, and I mean anyone who believes salvation is not everlasting through the seal of Holy Spirit but can be lost, what is that threshold? The belief in that concept of that alleged loss is strong and prolific among Evangelicals and Charismatics elike and yet its...

That's quite a testimony. As to an answer, I don't think I gave one because there's no singular answer for all people at all times. Experiences in life for different people span such a large field of specifics, and yet it's one Lord who died for us all, whether a man murdered a million people...

Romans 7:13-25 13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful. 14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15 For...

We have a tendency to build our assurance on the strength of our emotions instead of the fruit of repentance. Tell yourself, "I must be serious about God. Look how much I feel," while heaven asks, "Where is the change?" The devil is more than happy to let you cry, sing, exude all the religious...

Our desperately wicked hearts convince us that because we feel convicted, we must be changing for the good. We mistake pain for progress, emotion for conversion, a trembling moment for a transformed life. Think about how this has played out in your own story. How many times have you cried over...

Like Jesus said, a little leaven leavens the whole loaf... BTW

Given all the tactical outline of the devil's plans forward, I'm seeing these very items at play in media and on campuses. When one finds the musings in one's head as to the lunacy of any freedom-loving person choosing the side of supporting terrorists who are anti-Semitic against me and all...

There's a frightening reality in the Christian life these days that few dare to admit nor discuss. So many cry over their sins, feel deeply moved in a religious services, walk to the front while moved by an emotional song; they even soak their rarely opened Bibles with tears and still never...

Ok. Thanks for the clarification. Yes, Jesus was telling of the time AFTER the tribulation when He will have His chosen people Israel collected together. That's not speaking of the time before the tribulation, even though there are those who believe such. BTW

Let's see what Jesus said about that gathering: Matthew 13:41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; Is that the passage you're talking about? BTW

1948 wasn't a fulfillment (total fulfillment) of prophetic utterings in the OT because those prophecies describe restoration (Messiah's Kingdom, true Israel in Christ) or future national events (Tribulation, Ezekiel 38/39, a unified, believing Israel), not just a political state with military...

There's scary stuff even among the naturalists, such as some in the homeopathic cult wearing metallic pyramids on their heads to channel the energies through their bodies... Every "practice" on guinea pig patients is an exercise in chance and gambling of one's life in the hands of...

It appears you're too afraid to look in the dictionary...the English dictionary. Is there a reason for that? I wouldn't be so quick to laugh given how wrong you are. COVENANT: 1. A mutual consent or agreement of two or more persons, to do or to forbear some act or thing; a contract...

Dude, you're not understanding the differences in English between those two words. It doesn't matter that both came from the same Greek word. Even in the Greek, the source word also has more than one definition ALWAYS depending on the context and grammatical constructs. Context is king. Theology...

We all know the name of the master conspirator... BTW

Don't be surprised if we're all long gone from this world when the rapture finally happens. What seems reasonable to us to encourage dreams and visions most generally have shown to be off by quite a space. The one sign we are told for sure is the fullness of the Gentiles be come in, and that...

The problem, though, is in people thinking this took place in 1948. The millions of us Israelis here in America are all still here, not having yet been gathered over there. We're still scattered all across the earth, some of us still in Iran and Iraq. The 1948 claim, therefore, is an emotional...

It's surprising that anyone would ever think that similar Greek words always have the same applied definition in English. Are you saying you really believe that? That's like saying the Greek word translated as "cleave" in English from the same Greek word always has the same meaning in English...

Well, scripture disagrees with you, and I will go with scripture, as is quoted in a previous post of mine.. BTW
