They will do those things if they were truly sanctified by the Spirit of God. The point i have been at pains to make clear is that in the parable, and elsewhere in scripture, it is those works that are used as evidence in the judgment as to whether we are saved or not. The question as to...

“12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. 14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in...

“43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. 44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? 45...

Early in the fourth century Cyril of Jerusalem (318-386 A. D.)had this to say:.. “But this aforesaid Antichrist is to come when the times of the Roman Empire shall have been fulfilled, and the end of the world is drawing near. There shall rise up together ten kings of the Romans, reigning in...

Maybe not arguing. But you are determined with a zeal I haven't often seen, to paint me in a particular corner. That corner spells heretic...unsaved... unchristian... legalistic... apostate (if ever I was saved at all)... unbeliever (ifI wasn't ever saved). That is your continuing inference...

In order to curb any potential impatience waiting for @Adventageous, i will offer an answer to your comment if I may. If what John saw and heard from the angel, and essentially from Jesus regarding this vision was truth, would you not think a concept of a planet earth would be entirely correct?

“16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. ” Colossians 2:16-17 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/Colossians.2.16

You said it. Here...

To the above i would add, that Paul did exclude the weekly Sabbath when he defined what sabbaths were now passed away... the ones that were shadows.

You are correct. Paul addressed several things that were innate Jewish traditions bound by OT law. Circumcision, feast days, annual sabbaths etc. And they was a great deal of opposition from the Jewish leaders in every town Paul visited, and they stirred up much opposition against the...

So the power of the carnal nature is greater than the power of the Creator God? “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me? ” Jeremiah 32:27 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/Jeremiah.32.27 “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. ”...

Of course it wasn't. What man can change God's laws? Which is why the prophecy concerning the Antichrist papal system said in Daniel 7, that he would think to change times and laws. He can, and did legislate all he wants for Sunday sacredness. But in reality it is a futile empty attempt at...

I'm flabbergasted. I'm sitting here shaking my head at such biblical illiteracy. Twisting the entire nuance of James's text in order to defend tradition. So committing the actual deed is no longer an offence against God? Only thinking about it is offensive?

The Son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath.

So? Yet it was practised everywhere. For centuries. By Gentile Christians in Gentile nations from Britain by the Celtic church to India by the St.Thomas Christians, from Ethiopia to China and all the churches of Asia along the great silk road, later wiped out by encroaching sand and Tammerlane...

The "Little Horn" of Daniel 7 didn't come to power until the restrainer was removed in the 6th century. He grew from among the ten horns and subdued 3 of them. He then grew to such power that a powerful and tyrannical institution formed around him, subverting truth and replacing Christ with...

Whose authority are you under? The ECFs, or Christ Himself Who declared the Sabbath as His own? Those who later exalted Sunday stole the expression from John, but altered its meaning. John was observing the Sabbath, just as the church had been doing for 3,500 years and continued to do until...

That so-called "one singular man" grew out of the church in the 6th century and is to be destroyed at the second coming. That's a heck of a life.

To come to that conclusion, one must set aside 500 years at least of serious Biblical scholarship. The Reformers did not come to their conclusions based on hearsay, experience, or personal angst.

I thought you said these were going to be Biblical. As SI said above, no stone temple in the future unsanctioned by the holy Spirit could ever be the temple of God. We are God's temple...Christ in us, the hope of glory. The abomination of desolation that surrounded Jerusalem in 70 AD were the...
