    What is "OSAS"?

    "Saved" is what you aim for, when you don't understand how dart boards work; "quickened" is what you aim for, once you realize that the higher score on the dart board, comes from harder shots. In terms of faith, "harder shots" means better prayer, more faith, more servitude. None of this makes...

    The 10 Commandments are FOREVER

    Does someone who is a god, contend with other gods, over their being "gods"? No! They would rather reach the fool! So what is the fool, that says he will be one of the gods by argument? Which argument? No! The gods would rather not argue! Alright, so there is power in the tongue, to make one...

    Scripture says "in His Name, the Gentiles will trust" - what will 'Evolutionist Gentiles' trust in Jesus?

    Perhaps not what Evolutionist Gentiles will trust, but maybe something E.G's have to "accept", is that one generation does not strictly pass on (to the next generation) what has evolved - but also an abundance of what surrounds that 'Evolution' (which may prove useful to Evolution at a later...

    Finally working up the courage to ask a question that deeply distresses me

    This thread inspired something in me, thank you!

    I can tell you now, that this problem (of replacing friends), becomes a much bigger problem, on the way past Armageddon - whole nations will fight over who is what friend. I think you've nailed it, a true friend doesn't even think of replacing friends - we just need to be praying that the world...

    What did Jesus say about our diversity, in the beginning? "I did not tell you [you were diverse] before, because I was with you"

    The old diversity, was incomplete. If incompleteness isn't a problem, for you, then sure, ignore what I said. Thankyou for saying so.

    Buddy please. I haven't seen your reply on hot and cold churches. You just quoted something about virgins.

    If you are a believer like me, that means you are evaluating what every other believer says "from a position of godliness" (marriage?)

    Hi there! So I have been thinking more and more about what it means to be a believer, what I should be focusing on as a believer, what scriptures I should be believing. The more I think about it, the less it has anything to do, with what I want. For a start, I can't know everything that every...

    The life of peace…..

    Our words are supposed to save: without Peace we can't even attempt it.

    Would you surrender your own beliefs in the cause of doctrinal unity?

    I think something we all need to learn about scripture, for the sake of unity: is that God does not have a preferred scripture. All scripture is "fit" - that's what the Bible says (you may have a scripture you use all the time, but the time may still come that you need to use a different one)...

    Scripture says "in His Name, the Gentiles will trust" - what will 'Evolutionist Gentiles' trust in Jesus?

    I think I may have made a little progress, with the idea that: you can have multiple adaptations, to a single pressure. In other words, adapting your design to something else, is not needed, to be contentiously "fit". Your fitness is given by what you do with your design, as it is (not as it...

    What did Jesus say about our diversity, in the beginning? "I did not tell you [you were diverse] before, because I was with you"

    I'm not sure what I have done wrong, but introduce a little subtext, to the debate. Subtext nourishes interpretation, it should be embraced? I don't want to idolize Jesus, when I could be doing His work - but if I focus on Jesus in a way that makes me ready for work, surely that is a good thing?

    Would you surrender your own beliefs in the cause of doctrinal unity?

    I think the thing is that we need to wait for our doctrine, to be "completed" in the right way (the right way is not before the end). God has a Gospel of His Own, He has communicated that to me - I'm still trying to work out what that means! Just talking about it, I have started to realise...

    CORRECT END TIMES TIME LINE

    Woah! Woah! Let's approach this slowly: do you realise that there will be hot and cold Churches, as long as Man is on the Earth? I'm just asking about your foundation, here - no hidden agendas, no preferred scriptures.

    CORRECT END TIMES TIME LINE

    Ok so you are tempted to critique why you thought it was wrong, but how would you go about nurturing his faith - that's what I'm wondering? We can't just go around the "right/wrong" merry-go-round, again and again, we have to find a way of leading people into prophecy. I think it can be done two...

    Scripture says "in His Name, the Gentiles will trust" - what will 'Evolutionist Gentiles' trust in Jesus?

    There is also a sense, in which Jesus prevents "Evolutionist Gentiles" from 'falling behind' - that is, Jesus keeps people moving with the signs of the times. When we don't change into something other than human, but our humanity improves, those who are waiting for humanity to change 'miss out'...

    I really feel like God is holding me under the waves, to escape the (dragon's) fire - please pray I have enough oxygen to still serve the Lord (!)

    Hi there! So basically, I keep reaching a point where I realise "no, God did not want me to just have faith; if I had: I wouldn't have produced the fruit He wanted" I am sort of the lever between God and the world, but I can't function as the lever, if I have been burned - so God puts me under...

    Don't fall into the trap, of thinking your faith is solely your doing - it is your doing in part, but praise God daily

    The importance of this idea, is that you keep being grateful, to the end. He who is grateful to the end, is worthy of greatest things. I am grateful for the Messenger that lead me to faith, and will be to the end of my days.

    Embracing Doctrinal Diversity - Unity in diversity

    I really feel that that is going to be one of the major works of the Holy Spirit, this century.

    Even at the end: Churches gonna be hot, churches gonna be cold - some will predict it, some not?

    That's what happens if the Love is cold. It's possible to be spiritually cold, without losing love.
