Wednesday was not a fourth day. Jesus was taken down from the cross at sundown because it was not done that they hung on the cross overnight. That is why they broke the legs to ensure death. So first day Wednesday evening to Thursday evening. Jesus buried. Second day Thursday evening to Friday...

I never mentioned the parable of the sower which has nothing at all to do with losing your salvation. This is the verses you should be looking at.... Hebrews 6:4 For it is impossible for those once having been enlightened, and having tasted of the heavenly gift, and becoming sharers of the...

Two things. I said unlike you because all I have to judge you by are your words which is the same for other people and me. The seond thing is that you have covered all sorts of topics in your post, not necessarily related to each other so it does not encourage others to take it seriously. I...

Cats at play make for a happy day

I read all your posts on page one in one reading and as I did I could see you standing at the lectern in Bible College giving your first lecture in a series about the church. Now to read page two for the second lecture. I like the serious stuff.

According to scripture, our role is set out in scripture and that is to go into all the world and make DISCIPLES. Not Christians as we tend to.

The Bible says you can lose your salvation so it is not deceit. And if you are part of a denomination regardless of what you believe, it will lead you astray and minimize your opportunity to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Unless of course, you accept that the denomination is the arbiter of...

Simple. The NTC did not start their gathering with 30/60 minutes of singing, dancing, etc and I wondered why such is my curiosity. What I did notice however is that they were full of the Holy Spirit and it revealed itself with miraculous healings, prayer, and deliverance so perhaps they got...

Unlike you, I am happy to consider all viewpoints. That way I come to a reasoned position on anything that I am researching. If we only listen to those who agree with us we will go down with the sinking ship. I am grateful for the opposing view on this because like so many, I can be easily led...

I find it interesting the emphasis on worship/singing these days as it does not gel with what the New Testament Church (NTC) did. I know that the scripture tells us that God inhabits the praises of his people and there are several exhortations to rejoice and sing praise. But the NTC did not do...

That is a good thing but has it been weighed against the cost of things to make that happen?

There is one thing about your comments. They give us an alternative view and that is a good thing.

They might have well-been part of the mafia. If they were they have kept quiet about it. No religious bent in the family. My wife got saved at the 59 Billy Graham Crusade. Before that, nothing. NO Italian, but not sure about double dutch:rolleyes:. NO, I would not let my wife work as she had a...

Very impressive but you forgot one thing. Jesus came to fulfil the law and if we are in Christ, then we too fulfil the law.

The family name was Righetti. There is a Righetti Oval in Hawthorn and a Righetti Street. We had the annual family get together at the Oval earlier on in the year. All the family lives in Melbourne except two and they usually come down for the occasion. I do not know what my ancestry is as I...

I had my spiritual birth in 1953. Still going strong. I remember a well knows minister who explained things this way. Under the Old Covenant, we were under the law as in Thou shalt not. Under the New Covenant, it is a promise. Because of your position in Christ you shall not....

Thank you for the post as it sets out clearly one of the more controversial aspects of the scriptures. I realize not everyone would agree with what you have said but it gives us some concrete information for rational discussion which is always welcome. The one aspect in particular that I try to...

Yes, the photos were great. They did and there were four brothers and they all set up farms in the area. One was mayor of Hawthorn at one stage and they had a park and road named after him. The park along Manningham Road was land donated by the brothers for public use. The situation we find...

I have a tendency to deal in reality and in the case if Israel she is God's chosen nation and whatever they have done right or wrong that has not changed. I have people on the ground in Israel who I correspond with and the news is good as Jews are acknowledging Jesus as the Messiah every day.

OH, that wasn't sarcasm. That is how you come across to everyone. Being autistic I can say that with all honesty because you cannot hurt my feelings.
