    Only baptism by immersion?

    Yes . . . we've got to go and look deeper into Scriptures. So much of it is a "living allegory" that not only addresses the current events, but that event is also a picture of what is to come. Our Bible is beyond remarkable! In fact, I'd say that it is impossible to have been "thought up" by the...

    When Jesus comes back, what will you like to talk to him about for eternity?

    Yes, it is rather telling. True Christians are kind and loving . . . not always . . . we make mistakes, but for the most part, we have a kind and gentle Spirit. Don't give up! These are not easy Doctrines to explain, especially through simple text on a forum.

    HE THAT KEEPS MY SAYINGS SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH - JOHN 8:51

    Matthew 5:22 NKJV - "But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, 'Raca!' shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, 'You fool!' shall be in danger of hell fire."

    HE THAT KEEPS MY SAYINGS SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH - JOHN 8:51

    Matthew 5:22 NKJV - 22 "But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, 'Raca!' shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, 'You fool!' shall be in danger of hell fire. I don't think that AL is...

    HE THAT KEEPS MY SAYINGS SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH - JOHN 8:51

    Nah. That's not what AL is saying. However, AL [is] saying that through the work of Christ, which [is] the essence of the Promises and Blessings spoken of to Abraham in Genesis 17, "she" is viewed as one that is no longer under the Law. As Paul taught, where there is no Law, there is no...

    Only baptism by immersion?

    These are great verses, my friend! I use these to demonstrate Spiritual Circumcision, the same Circumcision that Abraham received, and this is the same Spiritual Circumcision that True Christians receive. Again . . . How were people in the Old Testament saved? We're supposed to have the same...

    HE THAT KEEPS MY SAYINGS SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH - JOHN 8:51

    "attempting to rationalize scriptures they have not dealt with before." THAT is describing my former self - total bullseye. Your statement is far more profound than most realize. And . . . it's easy to tell what it's happening to them. It is easy to tell who understands the Mysterious Plan of...

    HE THAT KEEPS MY SAYINGS SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH - JOHN 8:51

    I would encourage you to consider the things they're saying. These are very deep doctrines that are difficult to deal with through simple text. It won't hurt you to at least try to understand. :)

    HE THAT KEEPS MY SAYINGS SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH - JOHN 8:51

    Just thoughts, as I read your own. :) Paul teaches clearly, though Peter admits that it is difficult to understand. However, when our Powerful God allows a person to understand the Mysterious Plan of God, Paul's teaching comes alive and it transforms, becoming a collective teaching of which we...

    HE THAT KEEPS MY SAYINGS SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH - JOHN 8:51

    Regarding Post #2 Just guessing, but I'd say "they" feel this way as they relate to my own personal notes on this passage. How can Jesus say these things? (See the passage below.) For a person to be able to Obey consistently, which is to be Transformed, we must be Enabled by the Operative...

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    Does the below verse do anything to you? Matthew 5:22 NIV - "But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, 'Raca,' is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, 'You fool!' will be in danger of the...

    is something wrong with me? *cw, substance abuse*

    I wouldn't worry so much about any form of chemical abuse as I would about why you don't feel that you have control over your feelings. The last thing you need right now is to feel bad about any idea of addiction or abuse. More than this, we cannot allow ourselves to become overly concerned...

    Gold loan's to be cleared

    Powerful Lord, you know all that My Dreams might need. Father, we ask with pleading hearts that your will would be gladly done here on earth. Teach us . . . lead us . . . guide us, and show us the paths that you have in store for us. We pray this in the name of your Holy Christ, Jesus . . . Amen.

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    This is some pretty deep Doctrine that we're looking at, here. To even have the ability to discuss this Doctrine from their point of view requires a lot of Biblical studies. . . it requires an ability to almost view the Bible as a single picture. To understand this view, one must be much aware...

    When Jesus comes back, what will you like to talk to him about for eternity?

    I want to understand His Mysterious Plan inside and out. I want to understand His Holy Word, and put the pieces together that I haven't been able to resolve . . . as of yet.

    Adam and Eve, The True Adult Story

    Are you sure that clothing is not designed to cover our "shame?" This is a significant doctrine found throughout scripture . . . we have to remember Noah being uncovered in his drunken state by his son, Ham. Ham exposed the "shame" of his father. What is this shame? An uncircumcised phallus...

    Adam and Eve, The True Adult Story

    Abel was a prophet, Cain was not. Abel's Heart had been Purified of the Sin Nature, and Cain's Heart was not. Therefore, Cain's [Spiritual] father was still the Devil.

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    Especially when considering that all have been impacted by the Curse of Adam and Eve, a Curse of which only Christ may lift. Further still, and on top of this basic Curse, was the "deep sleep" that was spread across Israel. The "deep sleep" was an added layer of inability to obey. This sleep...

    HELP, I'M A UNIVERSALIST - CAN SOMEONE BRING ME INTO THE FRESH WATERS OF 'ETERNAL DAMNATIONISM'?

    That's the only way it could possibly be if there is a Plan that belongs to God. Paul made this unbelievably clear in Ephesians chapters 2 and 3. Why we don't see it? Our pastors don't teach it, thus the "flock" has been plucked of the Core of the Entire Bible.
