You are right in that what I believe has no bearing on you, just as what you believe has no bearing on me. I do not dispute that the the Holy Spirit included the book of Hebrews in the bible, but I do disagree that just because it is in the New Testament, that it automatically makes it a word...

I do not believe that the book of Hebrews was written to the Christian church. I believe it was written to the Hebrews that will be left behind during the Tribulation. I do not believe that the Church is the "Spiritual Israel". I do not believe that the Christian church is the "Lost 10...

While everything that is in the bible is useful for our understanding, not everything in the bible applies to us. The best example that I can think of is the Law. We do not stone people who commit adultery even though that is in the bible. And as far as the bible not being a history book, I...

And I suppose you have the one specific combination of numbers in a preassigned order that will unlock the bible? And therefore everyone who disagrees with you is absolutely wrong. Only you have found the key. Only you and the people who believe exactly like you have the ultimate truth...

I totally disagree with this statement. During the age of Grace, otherwise known as the church age, I believe that God will not take away his grace. We didn't earn it with our works, and we don't maintain it with our works. Now, I do believe that the Saints in the Old Testament could have...

Mine right now are C.S. Lewis, Randy Alcorn, Steven Lawhead, and Joel Rosenburg. Joshua David

Robbie, I have a question Robbie, when you were a child, did your mom ever carry you to the doctor, and the doctor said that you needed a shot? Did the shot hurt? Did your mom stand there and let it happen? Brother, I am not saying that your mom did not love you. In fact it was her love...

So did God put every Enemy of God under the Apostle's feet? Each and every one of them was beaten, thrown in jail and with the one exception of John, they all were horribly martyred. So are you saying that if the apostles would have just had a little more faith, then they would have lived...

Robbie, I never said that we should throw out everything that Jesus said. What I said was that just because God does not answer a prayer, it does not necessarily mean that it is because of a lack of faith. Sometimes it is because of sin, sometimes it is because we ask amiss, sometimes it...

Robbie, Didn't Paul pray three times for the 'thorn in his flesh', which most bible scholars believe was some type of eye problem, to be removed? Now if it was just a matter of it being a lack of faith, then we would have been told that. 2 Cor 12:6-9 For though I would desire to glory, I...

So then what do you use to guide you Robbie? Joshua David

This is the way that I really look at it. In the Old testament we find that God decreed that "In the mouth of two witnesses let a thing be established." God has used this rule of declaration and confirmation many times in the scriptures, as well as in my own life. I see the Holy spirit being...

Glory to God!!!!! Thanks for shareing... Joshua David

And so we should allow the scriptures to guide us to this truth? right? or should we? What say you? I just find it ironic that you use the same scriptures that you say should not be our guide to prove that the scriptures should not be our guide. Look at it this way... there have been...

Are these the same scriptures that you say should not be our guide? Just wondering? Joshua David

Well I agree that there is room for argument/discussion on the basis of timing, but for me to deny that the rapture is real is the same as saying that you deny that the bible is correct, or trying to spiritualize the scriptures to such a degree that they end up failing to make any logical sense...

Lastsecman, I have a question, in your opinion, what does it mean to be sealed by the Holy Spirit unto the Day of redemption? ( Eph 4:30) second question.. What are you trusting in for your Salvation? Are you trusting in the free gift of Jesus Christ's sacrificial work on the cross, or...

what scriptures describe purgatory? Also I disagree with your interpretation about the rapture. A careful study of the word harpazo, the word that is used in scripture perfectly describes the rapture. The word means to 'snatch away by force'. So what Paul was saying was that we shall be...

No.. I am not even saying that any translation is a 100% the same as what was originally copied down. But what I am saying is that God has preserved his word. Now we may have to study a little bit, and we may have to look at a couple of different translations if we can't read the original...

Do you doubt God's ability to perserve his Word in saying what he meant? The 'bible' is the most tested, the most debated, the most criticized work in all of literacy history, and yet it has stood the test of time. It is also held to the highest standard that no other work of literacy is held...
