Love it!

Howdy brother. I'm not looking for another go round and its pointless really. Only the Holy Spirit convinces one of the truth and nearly everyone makes the gospel more complicated than it needs to be, but have you considered that when Jesus described that judgment you quote in Matthew 25:44-46...

Although you don't find the words omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent written in scripture, there are sufficient verses that speak to these qualities of God for them to be understood as in: Remember the former things of old, For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none...

Thank you so much for posting this lovely rendition of an old and wonderful worship song. It's been so long since I've heard it in a congregation that it brought tears to my eyes and they're still a bit blurry with tears. Oh how I long to worship the Lord in the company of the saints again. It...

Thank you for a solid tip, but honestly, if I have to respond to every alert, to every accusation, to every evil innuendo, I'll never get my own labors accomplished on my property or in my house. I'm embarrassed to have any guests over for all the disarray, clutter, dust, and frequently...

No, I just think Christians are easily contented with salvation and become slothful in doing God's will. The resurrected Christ addressed a large gathering of disciples in Galilee, not just the Apostles, and gave them the great commission, telling them to go out into the world. Did they? We're...

Well, a poor theology doesn't mean a lack of relationship. The biggest influence on my faith was my maternal grandfather, we called him dzedo or dzedi, which is a Slovak word which just means "man" and grandma was "baba", just like the southern slang, but means woman. When dzedo got annoyed with...

Nothing comes to mind at the moment, but I'm sitting in my underwear, waiting to take a shower and make something to eat for dinner (I had a granola bar for lunch and I'm pretty large, 289 at my last check) , so maybe someone else has an answer. My alerts for the day are getting a bit long to...

When I say flimsy you might compare it to what James said about faith without works. Jesus told his disciples at that well in Samaria, that He had other food to eat, the works of God. That's solid food, the meat of the word, which we do by faith. I've heard "mother" Theresa put down because she...

I think that I see what you're saying, but does Christ have 2 brides? Or is the church and Israel one bride? This source of prior arguments is part of what led to "replacement " theology and the doctrinal error concerning the "rapture". Its also part of what divides congregations of Christian...

You're very wise my friend and I'm very pleased to call you brother. My friend Jerome liked the expression "My brother from another mother". That always worked for me.

Uh, that falling away started a long time ago. I was a child in the RCC from 1956 until I walked away from that church in 1969 at the age of 13 and shortly after my confirmation. I most definitely was not the only one as nearly half of the bible believing churches that I've worshipped with were...

The scripture tells us. 6 And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns! 7 Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come...

I don't really have a problem with anything that you're saying, I just dont like theological terms that are popularly used to label a brother or sister in the Lord, in order to justify ignoring what they have to say. I consider that willful sin and disobedience to God. I know a few people, at...

Thank you, a perfect passage that speaks to the purposes of such a study. It's unfortunate that some people are more afraid of being deceived and somehow loosing their salvation, than the blessing of growing in Christ. Many are even afraid of His return, which is really very sad when you think...

Not according to my poor understanding of dispensationalism. A friend and brother in the Lord who was a seminary student at the time, and a huge fan of John MacArthur went to some effort to produce a study on the subject, but I dismissed it out of mind as it made no real sense to me. We see...

Evil judgments all and not worth an answer, but yes, I do things God's way, in accordance with the Holy writ. My testimony bears witness of Him and His word. Does yours? I have a great deal of labor to perform upon my property and some cool sunny weather to do it, so forgive me if I don't...

I appreciate this, but I wouldn't be dogmatic in your first statement. At the death and resurrection of our Lord there were many who never heard the gospel, many who never knew of the covenants, and many that observed the moral codes of their various false religions. It's an absurdity to think...

Thank you. Your comments are lovely and an encouragement. Who could ask for more? God bless you and increase your understanding ( and I know that He has and He will). Amen BTW, encouragements is one of the greatest gifts of the Holy Spirit and it would be wonderful if those with that gift used...

You have to ask yourself then if the rest of the passage applies to the first (context). Then you have to ask yourself if Lucifer is just a man and dead. The same is true of the annointed cherub, the covering angel. These are deep waters my friend, but we have a "liferaft", a hand up in Jesus...
