    Why Do The Elect Need to Be Persuaded?

    The mixed messaging is confusing, but believing the gospel is actually a command, not a suggestion. Rejecting the gospel is rejecting God's salvation. Condemnation and destruction are man's willful choice in rejecting God's love. 14 Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be...

    The Desecration of the Second Temple.

    There is no like option for your own post. What's the point of approving your own statement?

    Why Do The Elect Need to Be Persuaded?

    16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you. John 15:16 Go back to the father of lies for a more believable one

    Why Do The Elect Need to Be Persuaded?

    God didn't create evil and that isn't reformed theology, but God granted men choice. If He didn't we couldn't be said to be created in His image, because God clearly has choice. The problem with choice is that we then become capable of either doing God's will which is doing that which is good...

    Why Do The Elect Need to Be Persuaded?

    Jehovah which is the English version of Yah havah is an extended version of Yah, which is also given in scripture. Yah havah is more prevalent because it is the covenant name given Moses, but thank you for displaying your incredible ignorance of God and the scriptures. Come to Christ. Repent...

    Following The Commandments in todays world.

    You might be right, I think that the reformers felt that way, but Free Masonry seems like a better fit. The Masons went right along with the British army wherever the British army went. They always had a tent representing a temple and sought new initiates around the globe. Their own beliefs...

    Where can I find a really shy woman for a relationship?

    I guarantee that absolutely no one wants to bring you to hell with them. Most non believers think of hell as a joke or a big party of unrighteousness. Anyone that believes in a biblical hell definitely doesn't want to go there. Maybe you think that you're "good" and everyone around you is...

    Where can I find a really shy woman for a relationship?

    I was friendly with a seminary student who is now a pastor. He's a Jewish Christian that married an Asian girl. The curse applies to Asians as much as to anyone, but Asian culture is more patriarchal than modern western culture, so don't limit your options. Still there's a great deal of godly...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    I think that you're correct when speaking of the "majority" of people, but the majority of people don't use Christian social media either. Participants in forums fall into two types, those who have strong convictions regarding their beliefs whether their beliefs are correct or not, and those...

    Deuteronomy 6:4

    Duh. The Father manifested in flesh, His Son. Spirit is greater than flesh. Jesus was tempted according to the flesh. The Spirit is not tempted. God is not tempted. Jesus was tempted as "the Son of man," But remained without sin as the Son of God. Your inability to understand the manifestation...

    Where can I find a really shy woman for a relationship?

    According to scripture, such women don't exist. Women were created from man, so man proceeded women in the order of creation, but God pronounced a curse upon humanity. Women desire to control men, but men were given authority over women. This relationship is only changed when people receive...

    Deuteronomy 6:4

    Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? John 14:9 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    In the old Hebrew tradition, women were not allowed in the synagogue, but were to be taught by their husbands. This old tradition persisted in Europe until at least the 1930s. I met a concentration camp survivor named Dorothy Cohen who wasn't taught scripture because her family was killed by the...

    Deuteronomy 6:4

    The opening verse is "the great shema" or the central belief of the Hebrew faith. It was the belief of Jesus and the Apostles, but after the resurrection, even Thomas had no problem seeing Jesus as God the Father and LORD. The Holy Spirit was described by Christ as One like Him, creating the...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    This is not entirely accurate because Christ taught His disciples that when the Holy Spirit was sent. He would guide them into all truth. Jesus also withheld some things from His disciples because they could not bear it. 12 “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now...

    Why Do The Elect Need to Be Persuaded?

    Yah havah means Yah the life giver. (Anglicized as Jehovah) Yah shuah meany Yah our Savior. (Anglicized as Joshua) God's name is Yah and you'll find that version in scripture if you look for it.

    Why Do The Elect Need to Be Persuaded?

    It's accepted Christian doctrine for 2000 years. I don't expect you to understand spiritual principles. That isn't even a possibility to a carnal mind, but I know your mind is carnal because it's exactly like mine before I was born again. I didn't present these verses to change your mind or...

    Why Do The Elect Need to Be Persuaded?

    That's exactly how I thought at the age of 25 and before I was born again. When God commanded that the Canaanites be put to "the ban", He declared them to be holy as dedicated to destruction. The reason is given in scripture. He didn't want the children of Israel corrupted by the pagan...

    Faith-based tattoo: as a result of one, did you ever talk with someone? (Poll included)

    My statements are the expression of my internalized thoughts. I might appreciate a unique tattoo reflecting a personal experience, but I'm restrained by love. I like my liberty in Christ, but see no reason to flaunt it and cause others to judge me unrighteously. Restraint for the sake of the...

    Faith-based tattoo: as a result of one, did you ever talk with someone? (Poll included)

    Law is law and not grace, but love suffers long for the sake of love. I don't claim to be perfected in love, but at the very least it should be a goal.
