Yes, Paul was one of those chosen; one of Christ's brothers. Would you please read Jesus' words at Matthew 25:31-46? Notice there are 3 different groups mentioned: the goats, the sheep, and His (Jesus') brothers (vs.40). No doubt Jesus' brothers are sheeplike, ie., they follow Him, but Jesus...

Where did I say 'only'? I also said "the righteous". (Same group of people.) But "the wicked" and "treacherous" will be gone. -- Prov. 2:21,22. Please read Psalm 37:9-11, 29 There's a lot of verses that reference the future of mankind living on this Earth! In fact, way more about the Earth...

Yes, for those who are Christ's "brothers." (Matt.25:40) But Jesus also spoke of the "meek / mild tempered", who will "inherit the earth."-- (Matt.5:5) The "righteous" who will "live forever on the Earth." -- Psalm 37:29; See Revelation 21:3,4. These meek / mild tempered / righteous ones will...

Please look at the context, the surrounding verses. Vss.13 & 14 (in the KJV) says: "And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of...

Can you provide a link? Because Benjamin Wilson changed his beliefs at different times. During the time of writing The Emphatic Diaglott, however, I believe he was a trinitarian. It certainly shows in how he worded the marginal reading of John 1:1! There's no misquote, here. You quoted what I...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emphatic_Diaglott Do you agree that Jesus is the Word? I gave them to you: Colossians 1:15, & Revelation 3:14. Have a great day.

Revelation 3:14, "the beginning of the creation by God." Colossians 1:15,16 "the firstborn of all creation." Benjamin Wilson who was a trinitarian. In his 'Emphatic Diaglott', in the Interlinear part, it reads: "and a god was the Word." In J. Moffatt's translation, John 1:1c reads:"the Logos...

I'm sorry, GodsGrace, but you don't seem to understand.... Orthodox teachings, principles, and behavior were already settled in the 1st Century, with Jesus and His Apostles. Not in the 4th Century, with the establishment of Catholicism. The Apostle Paul told the Ephesian overseers in Acts...

Hello, my cousin. John 1:1 doesn't say anything about a trinity.

Hello... Well, I didn't say beliefs 'don't' matter. I said they "wouldn't" matter, If believers weren't being obedient to God and His Son.

I see what you mean... I didn't read the OP first, that's my fault. I found this thread from "New Posts", and just read that one. Its sad though, isn't it? It should make people wonder, "Whats going on?" Those who really have God's spirit, should be displaying the fruitages of that spirit...

How would a person intentionally make enemies of the world?

What good are orthodox beliefs, if a religion professing Christ, doesn't obey Christ & His 12 Apostles? Beliefs wouldnt matter a hill of beans, according to Jesus.

Unfortunately, with this world "lying in the power of the wicked one" (1 John 5:19), we should expect False ideas to be more prevalent than Truth, simply for that very reason: that the Devil is the "god of this world" (2 Corinthians 4:4); as Jesus said, "the ruler of this world" (John 12:31...

Dear @GodsGrace , The following is a pleasant exchange! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nice to hear. We are doing our best, I believe (to please God). No sir. I never contradict myself. Here is what is needed to be saved. 1. Belief in...

Calm down... You're too abusive.

Wait... you don't believe the end is coming soon? That is interesting. Yes, Jesus said that we wouldn't know 'the day or hour', but He gave signs to look for. (Matthew 24, Luke 21, Mark 13) Signs that started being fulfilled in 1914. Jesus said to "keep in expectation" for His return. "Keep...

Explain, what? Poetry? Do you really think God "sits" upon the Earth?

Im not going to be drawn into a debate over this. suffice it to say, Isaiah 40:22

Because the higher elevation (on Maui) allows for the observer to see the entire wreck which is far away; but the entire wreck isn't visible at sea level. Which means, there's a curvature to the Earth.
