    Submission Of The Wife: How Serious A Matter Is It?

    Far to often a husbands responsibilities have not been stressed, it has always been ' wife's obey your Lord and master". Just as marital unfaithfulness will end a marr, so an unloving, uncaring, selfish husband does not have an obedient slave. Look at how deep the husbands love has to be...

    Submission Of The Wife: How Serious A Matter Is It?

    I see where you are coming from, but this is not a picture of the trinity but an example of love. We husbands are to love as sacrifically as Jesus loves his church. Wife's are to obey/submit to their loving husband. The bias towards wife's obeying totally ignores the depth of the husbands...

    Submission Of The Wife: How Serious A Matter Is It?

    What is even more serious is the issue of whether the husband sacrificial loves his wife. If he fails in this, there is no requirement for his wife to submit/obey him. The contract is that a wife will obey/submit to a husband who loves her as Jesus loved the church, giving up everything for...

    John 1:1 EXPOSING the JWs LIES

    The Watchtower says:- Can there be false religion? It is not a form of religios perscution for anyone to say and to show that another religion is false. from 15/11/1963 p 688. It also says on the same page " it is a public sevice" Who then are the ones who form the body of true worshipers...

    Understanding Tohu wa-Bohu of Bereshit, obviously Genesis 1:2 and modern nothingness.

    Actually because science shows that the universe has a begining, atheist are terrified of the idea that a begining require a cause and a cause from total nothing is supernatural, which implies God. So thanks to a belief in ' quantum ' they suggest that nothing was not nothing.

    A difficult question:

    You do not understand Christianity. We recieve salvation by faith, then we show our love for Jesus by living for him. None of those verses supports your belief that we contribute towards our salvation.

    "The word was a god"?

    I don't know about you but in my experience Women give birth to human babies, dog give birth to puppies etc etc so it follows if someone is discribed as the Son of God that they are decended from God and are God. This becomes even more significant when the person is not a king subjected to...

    "The word was a god"?

    Dig a little deeper into why they say Jesus is a god.

    A difficult question:

    Yes we share in the benefits of converstion and in the penalty/problems of converstion but that does not mean that we contributed to being converted. Those verse do not say that we contributed to being saved.

    "The word was a god"?

    The new world translation says Jesus is a god. That is not recognising Jesus as the Son of God, the second person of the trinity.

    What are your thoughts on judging others?

    Look at that highly amusing tale of the man trying to remove a speck from anothers eye with a whole tree growing out of his own eye. The point is simple don't judge minor faults in others when you have the same fault only magnified many, many times. We can make judgements, just be prepared to...

    "The word was a god"?

    If God the Father is God and acording to the new world translation Jesus is a god, they believe in a oantheon of gods, even if it is just two gods.

    The Law

    Can I bless someone?

    What do you mean by ' bless them ' ? If they are a begger stop and talk to them. ask them there name, treat them as a human being and give them something. Maintain that contact regularly, treating them as a feeling, thinking person will do more than a meaningless 'God bless them' and as you get...

    A difficult question:

    We are to remain in Jesus, that means we must have gain access to him or to put it another way, been born again/become a Christian. As he says if we as Christians remain in him we can serve him, if we don't we cannot. This passage is speaking about Christians being united with Jesus it says...

    "The word was a god"?

    You are missing the point. The new world translation is the bible used by the watch tower and tract bible society, known as Jehovahs witnesses. It is the JW's who teach that Jesus is a god with a small g, because they do not believe he is the Son of God, but part of there panthion of gods.

    A difficult question:

    No. Jesus through his death and resurrection paid for All our sins, bour All our guilt and shame and endured our punishment. If we in some way participate in any of that then it is not All of Jesus. It is by grace we are saved and this is not by our efforts but it is the free gift from God so...
