    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Why does it have to be quoted? A small amount of intelligence and common sense will lead one to understand there is NOT ONE PERSON on the face of this earth like the apostle Paul. He could heal, raise the dead, the Bible specifically said he was a chosen vessel to carry Christ message. His...

    That makes no sense.

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    What is the gift of the HS? The text does not tell us. You are assuming something that is not there. You are also assuming that “the promise” in vs 39 is connected to vs 38. “The promise”, when you study further given to all “nations” was that of Abraham that through his SEED all the nations...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    A seal is something visible. Did individuals know in the first century if they were “sealed” or not? Yes, they had the miraculous gifts given to them by an apostle. This is what Paul meant when he told the Ephesians they had been sealed with Spirit. He is the one who sealed them with the...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    The point is....the Bible gets to determine who is and is not an ambassador or official spokesperson for Christ. Here is the lexicon definition.. presbeúō ("act as an ambassador") means to act as an established statesman (diplomat) – a trusted, respected ambassador who is authorized to speak as...

    “We” don’t know what that means.

    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    I can read English. Let’s read together... 2 Peter 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Theses are people who WERE the unjust but escaped through the knowledge of Jesus. I Can read and comprehend that? they...

    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    In Eph 2:5. It says we are saved by grace. That must mean grace alone. But you just said we are saved by faith. That must be faith alone. How can salvation be by grace “alone”, and then have salvation by “faith” alone? You know I can go on and on with this. The reasonable adult knows that...

    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    There is nothing in Rom 8 that teaches your horrible society corrupting doctrine. “Christians” do whatever they want because they’ve been taught they will go to heaven no matter how they live their lives. They can lie, cheat, steal ,fornicate, commit adultery, have 4 wives and it don’t matter...

    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    We’ve already had this conversation but it’s not surprising that you don’t care about the factual evidence I presented you.

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    The word “sealed” does not mean “saved” You added that. I can show you that in Ephesians but it won’t matter. You can say the HS lives in you but when you do and teach things contrary to the HS given word we know he is not in you.

    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    Nice sign. It means absolutely nothing. It’s actually a horrible doctrine that leads to the moral decline of society.

    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    No. The whole world is NOT saved because God “loves” it. The love of God provided a way of salvation. Titus 2:11. Says.....the grace of God appeared to ALL MEN. This does not mean all men are saved even though grace saves. It is still up to us to comply with Gods conditions of salvation. We...

    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    The truth is that....God so loved the world.... that does not mean the world is saved. He loved you before when you weren’t a Christian. He loves you as a Christian, and he will still love you after you have left the faith. Don’t misconstrue love with salvation.

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    How do I know there are no qualifications for being a pot ambassador???? Hahahaha. Please show me the standard that decides those qualifications. That would be great to see. If you don’t understand that the Bible is the standard for determining who is and is not an OFFICIAL spokes person for...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    It says the spirit of God dwells in you. Yes. But it does not say how. You insert the how as if you have the answer. The answer comes from God not from you. Ephesians 5:18-19 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; Speaking to yourselves in psalms and...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    That is not that is not true. We see those in Jn 12 who believed in him but they would not confess because they feared of losing their position. They were not accepted by God. You cannot just “believe” with no action whatsoever and say you are obeying the gospel. Jesus said...he that...

    The Mystery Revealed

    No. Paul said the mystery was that Jews and gentiles would be a part of the same body. They would no longer be seen as a second class citizen. They would be equal.. that is the mystery

    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    Of course it speaks of Christians. Peter wrote this letter to Christians and verse 20 says.... For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them...
