*** This post is worth a reply! A very good post. Thank you.

*** Thanks! I gave my headers but others can be used. My headers encompass what I see in the Bible. Others may see something else. But it is best to have a foundation for what a person believes..

*** Until the law came people who placed their faith in God and believed what He said were granted God's mercy. During that time there were only Gentiles in the world. When the world became so sinful and refused to believe God, He started a new race of people, the Jews.

** I disagree. There has been more covenants made to mankind than just one. Paul said his gospel (covenant) was HIDDEN IN GOD. I fail to see that the 12 said any such thing. Do you believe that god can hide things from men. I do and it is supported by scripture. Deut 29:29 29 "The secret...

I believe that studying the Bible is not taking a set of scriptures and developing a doctrine but taking it as God telling us of His dealing with mankind with real events. I have done this and set my study up with the following captions. AN OVERVIEW OF THE BIBLE: I thought I would like to...

*** Acts 15:9-11 9 and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. 10 Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? 11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus...

This thread was about scriptures that are not taught in religious churches. But most all of the replies are religious doctrines that say nothing about the scriptures listed.. I can understand those that wish to support their religious ideoiogy, which these scriptures do not support, will...

*** How can the nation that rejected Jesus be a light to the Gentiles?

*** Where do we find Peter's gospel? Where do we find Peter saying his gospel was hidden in God? where do we find Peter telling the Jews they did not have to be circumsied. If a person reads Acts 21:20- with open eyes they will see that the James and the others were certainly not teaches what...

Here are three other scriptures never taught in religious churches. Matt 10:5-7 (NKJ) 5 These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them, saying: "Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter a city of the Samaritans. 6 "But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7 "And...

*** Today we are not forgiven sins through His name, Today we are forgiven by placing our faith, belief, trust and confidence in Jesus' work on the cross. Our faith is in Jesus' gospel of grace given to Paul for us. Even though the scriptures tell us that the gospel given to Paul was HIDDEN...

** I believe that it is the Holy Spirit that teaches the children of God by letting them see the unsearchable riches that are in Christ. Yes, the scriptures are necessary, but as we all know they can be used by Satan too. I have been away because my old computer bit the dust and I could not...

C Gal 2:9 9 and when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised. NKJV - This agreement between Paul and the 12 is never...

Then let us go on past Cain and Able. In the garden God told Adam and Eve that if they ate of the forbidden tree they would surely die. Satan told Eve that they would not die if they ate of the forbidden tree ** Did they believe God or Satan? When the Jewish people arrived at the gate city...

** NO! Paul was not one of the 12. Peter and the rest chose another to fill Judas' place. In Acts 15, James said that the Gentiles did not have to keep the Law of Moses but he did NOT say the Jews didn't have to. Yours is just an assumption that James said that the Jews did not have to keep...

What was the difference between the two sacrifices? One was an inanimate object and had no live in it. Gen 4:3-5 3 And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the Lord. 4 Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their...

Subject = Belief vs Unbelief: (belief = trust, faith, confidence. Each can be replaced by the others) All through the scriptures man had to make a choice to believe what God said or to not believe what God says. We can see this in the following examples. In the garden God told Adam and...

Where is your proof? Show me where Jesus and the 12 said we are not under the law. As far as Acts 21:20 we see that that James and the others are teaching the law. Under grace God (Jesus) has already atoned (paid) for the sins of all of the world. The truth is that since all sin has been...

** According to the Bible those that do not have the Holy Spirit can not understand the Bible. Most will ready believe men in religions who take the scriptures to prove a religious doctrine. But only those who have the Holy Spirit can understand the truth. It says so in the scriptures...
