    Made in the image of God; but made *for* the image of Christ. Discuss.

    Hi there, So this is just a simple distinction. On the one hand we are created by God. That is true. Indeed we are made in the image of God. Also true. But once created, there is a greater difference to look forward to: being made for the image of Christ. What does that mean? It means that our...

    Is believing/faith a work ?

    Jesus said "until now, My Father has been working, and I have been working" He did not say "until now My Father's grace is all that has been working" We are supposed to enter in to work, until our works come alongside the works of God.

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

    I think the answer to this, is that once you know something, there is a condition that activates in the mind, that it doesn't need to know more. So what Evolution would need to prove, is that - when you discover Evolution - there is a condition in the mind, that says you continually "don't need...

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

    Part of me wants to know, what a developed mind "thinks". But another part of me, wants to think "that it doesn't need to know"... EDIT: Can you bless the difference, without 'caging' the meaning?

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

    Just intellectually, it makes sense that bringing pressure upon pressure, lowers response to pressure in general. That being the case, it is possible to adapt, that strength that will define what response is most appropriate (to pressure in general)? Basically, pressure for no reason, yields...

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

    The key point is that the Gentiles' trust, should be increasing trust. That is really what I am trying to hit upon?

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

    I think maybe what it is, is that if the World finds itself in a position, where it can't reprioritize its response to pressure (selection pressure, in principle), then it can turn to Jesus for strength. The trouble is, Jesus' position is that they should have come to Him before they ran out...

    Is there even one thing, that would provoke humanoids to come from other species? Where's the selection pressure, that created Man, and nothing else?

    Maybe the point of potential humanoidity is to encourage men to be good stewards of all of Creation? It's like paying someone with Monopoly money, but fools will be fools.

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

    Also, I have come to understand, that the Words of Jesus, agree more greatly, than the words of "Evolution". The implications of that are far reaching?

    End times

    There is a partial truth in what you have said: God is revealed more in the sadness of the end, than the happiness of the beginning. The point would be, to keep a happy countenance, despite the sadness of the end - that would be a comfort. If everyone kept a happy countenance, despite the...

    I think God has hardened my heart and reprobate mind

    "Choose your words carefully". That's me, with a hardened heart. "Wait for God to bless you" - that's me with a tender heart. Everyone, has a mixture of a hardened and a tender heart.

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

    There is power in mourning the progression of Evolution, but remaining with a happy countenance, despite each further link. This (mourning) is something the World can learn, actually - to put distance between themselves and needless foolishness (emotionally). Lord help the World, focus and adjust!

    End times

    I get that part of the end, is everyone focused on the end. But why focus on the end, when you could focus on God? Does God focus on the end?

    Removed Thread.

    Bear in mind, you are always going to feel awful about your sin, let the Holy Spirit encourage you with the things to come. Part of the answer is letting go.

    An Omniscient God Negates Free Will

    You're ignoring that you have a choice. It is everyone's personal obligation to choose for themselves. Christianity comes about, when we recognise in Christ, that we have chosen something similar to our brothers.

    You guys have to start praying for two things: the rapture of the faith (that it be great) and deliverance from the tribulation (that it not spread)

    The correct response to these two things (rapture and limited tribulation) will secure the faith two things: a great reputation, and welcome (in Israel). This being the case, the Cause of Christ will be respected around the world and the Word of the Lord from Israel, will be trusted.

    "Jacob I have loved, Esau I have hated" ("but I have loved Jacob, far more, than I have hated Esau"). Discuss.

    Yes but what you are saying contradicts what God has taught me (through this)? I don't believe the question should be "why?"

    The anti-Christ will be beguiled, by the Devil's guilt: that he (the Devil) has no further accusation, for those who take the mark - it can't be true!

    Hi there, So just to be clear, there is almost no time left. The world awaits the coming of the anti-Christ. The Devil is ready to feign worship of the anti-Christ. But there is a problem: no matter how much the Devil worships the anti-Christ, there is no way for him (the Devil) to stop...

    A friends 35 yr. old son passed suddenly

    My brother-in-law, young, passed also (just days ago). We need to see Death as God does, bringing us closer to Him. Praying for the grieved.
