These are some relevant verses on the subject (WEB): Justified by faith: Romans 3:28) We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. Romans 3:20) 20) Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight. For through the law comes the...

Rejection of a corrupted church that has prostituted itself and joined with pagan religions and governments, is not rejection of Jesus. I quoted Jude 1:3 to you (post #1201), but you don't seem to have understood it: Jude 1:3) ... I was constrained to write to you exhorting you to contend...

You're ignoring the apostasy (falling away from the truth) that Paul and Jesus foretold, and the warnings of false teachers: 2 Thessalonians 2:3 (MKJV): Let not anyone deceive you by any means. For that Day shall not come unless there first comes a falling away, and the man of sin shall be...

Again a verse unrelated to your claims. That verse concerns what to do if "your brother sins against you" (verse 15). It's nothing to do with a Pope 1,850 years later making up new doctrines that all Christians must then believe. Acts 17:11 (WEB): Now these were more noble than those in...

What utter nonsense and drivel! You are adding to the Scriptures and completely misunderstanding it. Nowhere does it say anything in the Bible about Mary being conceived free of sin. In fact Luke 3:23 tells us that Mary's father was Heli (Eli) and that her genealogy is traced all the way back...

You really should check your facts before posting replies! James 1:19 (WEB): So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;

What?! Bathsheba became his wife. David was a son of Jesse, but I don't think the Bible tells us anything about his mother.

David was the king of Israel, but his mother wasn't ever a queen. Your statement is clearly wrong!

Ephesians 2:20 (WEB): being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone; Because Jesus was making a play on words. Matthew 16:18 (WEB): I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of...

We have no way of knowing if the thief had been baptised or whether he had faith in Jesus (but if he had then he had since fallen away, seeing that he had been sinning as a thief and was being executed). However, the thief was not a Christian and not called by God to become a member of the body...

I find your reasoning confusing! You had suggested that I might think that Christians will be caught up to the clouds and live there forever, (you said "so you think Christ is going to gather us to Heaven in the CLOUDS to live!"), so I quoted 1Th 4:7 and compared it with Jesus' ascension to...

I think that should have been Ecclesiastes 3:19-20. Ecclesiastes 3 (WEB): 19) For that which happens to the sons of men happens to animals. Even one thing happens to them. As the one dies, so the other dies. Yes, they have all one breath; and man has no advantage over the animals: for all is...

No, I'm fairly sure you didn't mention anything about asleep or dead Christians. I've checked again. The first mention you make of 1 Thessalonians 4 is in your reply #446, just after you accused me of not staying 'on the topic about the "asleep" saints'. I had quoted verse 17, but I didn't...

Again, that's unrelated to this topic. This is a little more related to the topic: Galations 3 (WEB): 19) Then why is there the law? It was added because of transgressions, until the offspring should come to whom the promise has been made. It was ordained through angels by the hand of a...

Jesus is not God though, he is God's only-begotten son. So you're saying Mary is Jesus' mother and his wife?! Surely not.

Matthew 16:18) I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. As I've mentioned elsewhere, Peter is not the foundation of the church - the fact that Jesus is the Messiah and the Son of God (Matthew 16:16) is...

Hmm, I'm not sure how to answer that! If I tell you my full name, that will be meaningless to you. If I tell you what church I attend, and help out a little, then that will be meaningless to you - and I can't claim to be speaking for or on behalf of that church/denomination. I am just a...

Again, no Scripure reference to back up your claims. Why should anybody believe what anybody else posts on this forum if it's not backed up by Scripture? (And making the font larger doesn't make the words you type any more significant or truer!) Hebrews 9:15 (ESV): Therefore he is the...

What's that got to do with Christians not being under the New Covenant?

Another unhelpful post. Here's a post for you: Holy Bible - start here. Is that helpful to you?
