I will need some Scripture to determine what you are trying to say. I know what you mean but there's nothing refuting my theory about God finally renewing Israel and Judah back to Himself (Jer 31:31). Thanks.

Scripture is not as clear as many other passages are, but there is enough inference to therorize because of the the evidence of the Jerimiah and Ezekiel prophecies, and other passages.

It is presently my strong suspicion that God’s people, Israel (those who love God but reject His Son the Lord Jesus) will inherit the New Earth—their final “Canaan.” John wrote, “Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father,” hence they will not be able to call God their Father but...

Hi DP, and appreciate the encouraging compliment! God bless!! Hi and thanks for sharing that! God bless!!

Hi 1CL, and appreciate the encouraging comment. God uses the trials the most, to teach us to grow in our faith and conform to Christ's image.

The Christians “condition” is how they are doing? Are they maintaining and enduring trials or complaining about them? It’s ok to wonder and maybe complain, but the less we allow a trial to move us, the more we mature in “the image of Christ” (Rom 8:29; 2Co 3:18). We are not to forget our unmoved...

Of the three divisions of humanity which are given by the Apostle Paul, namely, the Jews, the Gentles and the Church of God (1Co 10:32), the first and third represent the two major purposes of God—the earthly purpose centered in the Jews (Jews who believe in God but not the Lord Jesus - Jn...

Even today a clear understanding of the Body of Christ is not fully comprehended among many, as seen in an insufficiency to differentiate it from all other systems, which even those attempting admixture of it with other systems, i.e. Judaism, Romanism and other religions. It is faith in the Lord...

Both as free, and in bonds, Paul insisted upon seeking out “the lost sheep of the house of Israel,” persistently offering them, in the first place (Rom 1:16), “the salvation of God,” But, consistently, “they agreed not among themselves,” and at last Paul was constrained to say, “Hearing ye shall...

Hi and appreciate your reply! True, forgiveness is difficult, probably because it's the most difficult, it being the most significant; and if we continue enduring and seeking God's will, we will be able to access more of all that "pertains to life and godliness" (2Pe 1:3); and we've been...

Some receive the knowledge of forgiveness without much conviction of sin, and usually their appreciation of Christ as Savior is proportionately feeble. He that is forgiven much, the same loveth much (Luk 7:47). There may be the sense of forgiveness, with little realization of needing it. The...

I think I know what he means now, thanks R!

This doesn't make enough sense for me.

I'm still researching these verses (for a long time) for the best understanding.

I'm going to stick to what I have shared. Thanks for the replies!

Hi J, and always appreciate your replies and comments! Jhn 18:9 "“Of those whom You gave Me I have lost none.” I's been wisely said, "all that should be saved will be saved." "lost none" of whom God gave the Lord Jesus. If you weren't given, you weren't saved, because only those who were given...

Hi R, and thanks for the reply! Yes, if one thinks a believer would want to live in sin; but God keeps all believers from evil (2Th 3:3), i.e. all they will ever want from now on is to "please" Him (Phl 2:13). It's comforting to know that Christ's Blood removes "unwilful sins" (Heb 10:26).

True and Amen PC! If one is a genuine Christian it will eventually manifest itself (Mat 12:33). It's been wisely said that, "everyone that should be saved will be saved", according to God's omniscient foreknowledge! This answers to the wonder that God doesn't give eternal life to those He knows...

I wonder if there are many believers who do not know the guiltlessness of their status in the Lord Jesus. If there is not the knowledge that Christians are never judged, and are completely absent of guilt, there cannot be much spiritual growth in the faith! There will be “chastisement” when...

That's good to hear, keep it up, and God bless my Brother!
