    IS THE RAPTURE BEFORE THE TRIBULATION?

    Doesn't matter, but according to the word of GOD, in the beginning HE placed second inline Prophets as well to be in charge of the church. Don't on your own accord carelessly exalt bishops and deacons who are likewise with the church built on the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets as well...

    IS THE RAPTURE BEFORE THE TRIBULATION?

    This verse refers to the Jewish believers added to the church who are yet zealous of the Law. Apparently the Apostles forbid the Gentile believers from 'circumcision' and the 'Law'. which is 'abolished' since Christ have fulfilled it Read carefully, 'certain which went out from us' and 'to...

    Revelation 20: 5&6

    i disagree, it's got nothing to do with spiritual resurrection but rather resurrection of the dead during the 'second resurrection' for the 'final judgement'. And on 'these' the 'second death' have power over them, and not on them who made it at the 'first resurrection'. This is because on the...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    Even Romans chapter 1 clarifies that man cannot be in denial the existence of GOD, as man himself basically able to 'see' and 'discern' by HIS creation.

    Jesus Chooses Us

    Therefore man on his own will have to make the choice to believe or not to believe, and not GOD entirely.

    Jesus Chooses Us

    Sort of agree to disagree. But you can't deny that in co-operation man also make choices whether to respond or not to the Gospel. That's why all are not saved, if not looks like GOD have favorites and not favorites. and conflicts with the Holy Bible. Except the Jews who GOD consigned them to...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    For example, if GOD is in control of everything, it looks like HE chooses who is to be saved and who is to be damned? This conflicts with Biblically, the GOD who so loved the world, don't you think?

    Jesus Chooses Us

    Monergism goes wrong in denying that human beings are able to co-operate in the process of regeneration and salvation, for one. For example, when am born again/from above, am able to 'see' the Kingdom of GOD. Then when i 'see' and understand, hence i co-operate further to be born of water and...

    IS THE RAPTURE BEFORE THE TRIBULATION?

    Correction, the body of Christ church is universally 'one', and GOD has put in the church first of all Apostles, second Prophets, third Teachers and etc. (1Corinthians12:28) Then later they had pastors and etc. Moreover the universal church is built upon the foundation of, first the Apostles...

    IS THE RAPTURE BEFORE THE TRIBULATION?

    Yes, but the 'method' and 'purpose' was different as of the Law of Moses being the 'temporal custodian'. Yes, yet again the 'method' and 'purpose' was different as of the Law of Christ being the 'Everlasting Father' and for eternity. Moreover there's no scripture piecing them together as...

    Revelation 20: 5&6

    No, but where in the book of Revelation these words 'first resurrection' appear?

    You could never do what Jesus commanded.

    There's a 'parable' of this world saying, 'Practice makes perfect.' For example, just imagine on that day Jesus happened to question us saying; "During your lifetime of grace, progressively you practiced and made perfect reasonably many 'things' pertaining to the world. I understand many of...

    IS THE RAPTURE BEFORE THE TRIBULATION?

    Okay i get it and i take off my hat for that, you've got a strong point there by these verses in context about 'they'. Meaning, besides the Apostles, believers are also included, in one accord 'they' daily continued in the Temple. Sorry, my bad! Nevertheless the disagreement is, to you...

    IS THE RAPTURE BEFORE THE TRIBULATION?

    Jesus said, "I did not come to do away with the Law and the Prophets until it is fulfilled.' Yes the Law was still in active, even Jesus was 'circumcised' after John the Baptist, until it was 'fulfilled' on the Cross. So what are you mix matching scripture when they don't add up to your point?

    Jesus Chooses Us

    For example, if 'mobergists' believe the salvation is GOD and the Holy Ghost work. So the Son who took on flesh didn't contribute anything to the work of salvation?

    You could never do what Jesus commanded.

    Brethren, The same Gospel in the beginning calling for 'repentance' and 'water baptism' for the remission of sins, requires no works at all. This is the 'free gift' of GOD to the world HE so loved, who have sinned and fallen short of HIS GLORY, Jews and Gentiles. That 'both' should turn from...

    You could never do what Jesus commanded.

    Matthew G is fantasising and sharing his made up version of the Gospel, faith without works. For GOD does all the work through him and he need not lift a finger, for he just have to abide in Christ. So convenient to 'debunk' other scriptures, and rather copy and paste out of context scriptures...
