    Whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will NOT be forgiven

    I am not a Gentile. I am a Christian that started on the day of Pentecost as recorded in the second chapter of the book of Acts. This is the present administration of Grace that is for the Church of God. It's the time period you and I now belong to because it's the Grace administration, without...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    The context of Matthew 19:26 is referring to the rich man getting saved. God can figure out a way to work around that. But there are some things He cannot do. He cannot break His own laws. He cannot lie. Etc.

    What Does Christian Maturity Look Like? - "... solid food is for the mature..." - Heb. 5:14

    There are some things God cannot do. The context you are referring to in Matthew is about how can a rich man get saved and God could figure out a way to accomplish that. But there are some things He simply cannot do.

    What Does Christian Maturity Look Like? - "... solid food is for the mature..." - Heb. 5:14

    I am no longer a babe in Christ. I graduated and now walk in the spirit of Christ. I believe God gave us a new nature when we are born again and that this is what the apostle Paul taught. I love the NIV on this... 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Can He be limited with qualities and properties in other ways? Well, I never thought God could have choices. I always thought of Him as being perfect and therefore His way was the only way. I just never thought of Him in any other way. I now believe Christianity is more about a personal God who...

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    You guys see God different than the Scriptures do. There was nobody in the entire Old Testament that ever spit or beat up God. You were dead if you even walked in the wrong room in the Temple. Or even touched the Ark. And you sure would be toast if you even dropped it. Nobody ever messed with...

    Whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will NOT be forgiven

    What is written directly to the Jews, belongs to and is for the Jews. What is written directly to the Gentiles, belongs to and is for the Gentiles. What is written directly to the Church of God, belongs to and is for the Church of God. What does God mean when He tells us that the visions shown...

    What Does Christian Maturity Look Like? - "... solid food is for the mature..." - Heb. 5:14

    Pick a verse. Here's a few... 1 John 3 & 5 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin, for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. We know that whosoever is born of...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    That is not true. There are some things God cannot do. It seems logical to say that if God works with His own logic and science that He created, then there is stuff He simply cannot do. It seems clear He cannot lie. He probably cannot make a square circle. And if He is unlimited in goodness and...

    Whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will NOT be forgiven

    You are absolutely correct. French is not a group that God is writing to. But you can. You can write books about it and tell everyone about all the great French folks that you know. But God does not speak about the French people and it's Him we are trying to understand. When He writes about...

    Are there prophets today?

    Nobody ever welcomed them or acknowledged them before. Why do you think you would?

    Whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will NOT be forgiven

    Have we had this conversation before? You can write your own book and call yourself a Christian Gentile. But God does not use that language and it's His book we are trying to understand. Not your book.

    What is your notion of Christian exclusivity?

    A couple of things that hit my mind as I look at your post are... Many churches teach God called certain people because the New Testament has places where it talks about those who God called. I think God called everyone and only certain people answered the call. In Ephesians 1:4, it says God...

    Whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will NOT be forgiven

    There is no such thing as a Christian Gentile. That language is not used in Scripture.

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    I agree with you.

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    Do you have a verse that I handled not well on any biblical subject?

    What Does Christian Maturity Look Like? - "... solid food is for the mature..." - Heb. 5:14

    The scriptures are simple. Even a child could understand it. You will need to go to school and studying it for years to make it complicated like the Catholics who call much of it a mystery. Sin nature is a great example. The new nature came in and the old is gone. You have to go to school to...

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    Should I lie and tell people I am not an expert on the subject of the trinity?

    Whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will NOT be forgiven

    The problem I have with that is it was said to Israel and not to Christians. And also there's so much Scripture in the Epistles that says Jesus can forgive to the uttermost.
