I know the reality of being saved, of the reality of struggling with temptation, of the reality of sinning. I know this on a daily bases. It is interesting that those who God has used greatly in the past and the present all acknowledge that they are the chief of sinners. None proclaim that they...

No it is not hard. Look at it as if you are a private in the army. Does the commander in chief come to wake you up, to give you instructions for the day? No, he has issued standing orders, instructions that are in force untill cancelled and there are other officers and NCO's who will teach...

A promise given to the people of Israel with the condition that they kept the whole of Gods law, not just the bits they liked. If you are claiming this for Christians today you need to show where it says that it applies to us today and still keep the whole of Gods laws.

More to the point what can you show or say that will convince me that you have the authority to reject scripture?

So a church where there is spiritual growth, where people are serious about seeking God, where there is real interest in people both inside the holy club and outside it is a place where people are growing in the faith, and where people are coming to know God, it is called conversation is a...

So someone seeking God and they asked you how to recognise a 'good church' and a faithfull minister, how would you advise them?

Conversions to false religions are not conversions. Moving from one service of the devil to another is no change. Yes there are many who profess faith in Jesus but have not committed themselves to him. To measure a ministers Christian commitment, his spiritual sanctity. How would you do it? I...

By that you are saying that some here are wilfully blind.

Would help if you defined what you mean by mystic. If you mean someone who seeks to know God then yes Christians are mystics. If you mean someone who seeks union with the deity in a state of ecstasy then no. A Christian is someone who has met with God/Jesus and has surrendered his life over to...

Just who are you addressing. I have no comment to make on what you have said, just concern over who you are addressing. Willfully blind, does that have any relevance to those who are seeking, or who are struggling with doubts. Just how many atheists are there on this forum? The promise about...

Debunking Acts 1:11, this same Jesus will return in the same way you have seen him go into heaven. He assured into heaven and will descend from heaven. It means coming down through the air. Rev1:13 he is coming on the clouds and every eye shall see him. It will be a public arrival. May I...

You are saying what I first said.

Both acts 1 and ref 7 tell us that Jesus's return will be dramatic and very very public. Ref 7 Every eye shall see him. Well I can confirm I have not seen Jesus descending out of the sky accompanied by mirriads of angels etc etc so this report is not worth reading.

If you are struggling with sin and temptation are you having any empowerment in your life. Remember we are All sinners saved by grace, we still sin. I think the test of a minister is are Christians growing as Christians, are souls being saved under that minister service. As Jesus said, it is...

If a minister is serving God, if his ministry is seeing fruit in people growing in stature as Christian and souls being saved. I think you have a sinner saved by grace who is serving God. Even if he is struggling with sin.

My reason, Of being told about a specific thing would apply. In saying that God speaks commonly to people through dreams etc, you then open the door to the question. What is God saying to me in this dream? What does God want of people? To become Christians and to serve him. Like in the armed...

God speaks through dreams and fission for two reasons. 1/ to direct those swear of him to a deffinet activity. 2/ to awaken those who are not aware of him and to get them to read the Bible. If God is speaking to you through dreams, maybe you should be spending more time in the Bible. You won't...

So you are teaching that Christian men Must be circumcised, that we should eat only kosher food etc etc. That salvation is not a spiritual event but something we achieve through keeping the law.

That does not answer my question. If you sin, are you still a a Christian? If a minister sins is he still a minister? If ministers etc are viewing porn is there preaching, service etc still valid? Or put it another way, what are ordinary Christians to do, where should they go for teaching...
