The thing to distinguish is that the Holy Spirit binds the anti-Christ and plunders his goods, Christ then kills the anti-Christ at Armageddon. You can skip to Armageddon if you want, but if you do that on Earth, you will be hit with a snare - only the Holy Spirit has a way out of Earth. Many...

Bible basher guilty party low income (it's funny how easily these come!)

God can save before, during and after the tribulation?

The difference between free-will and spiritual-will, is that free-will requires strength, whereas spiritual-will requires exercise. Now exercise creates strength, but it is not necessarily acknowledged for having created strength; whereas strength creates work, which exercise cannot go without...

The point I wanted to make was twofold: the anti-Christ can be overcome, the Lord will do it. Ecclesiastes states that everything returns to the dust, so that is not new. Meanwhile Armageddon is a spiritual battle, as much as it is a physical battle, wherever that battle starts - so it is...

Remember what Jesus said about "making the commandment of God of no effect through your tradition", you are saying you have faith and want to affirm that it is God's grace in you - but then you stop there! Actually the grace of God is an inspiration and you do it a disservice by suggesting that...

You want an answer from the Holy Spirit, and that's fine, but listen to the advice of someone who has overcome the struggle of life: you are always going to feel awful about your sin - the point is to let the Holy Spirit encourage you (if you can restrain yourself from the things of this world...

I think that the clincher (in relation to this topic) is that the Devil wanted a way out of the addiction to MacDonalds too! It's not that the Devil destroys the will of God, it's that he tries to take advantage of it, while the going is 'still' good. Settle with your adversary while you are...

Yes, but listen to what I am saying "you probably have decades". You don't think the Holy Spirit can use you, if you commit to something of this timescale? If I am wrong, what do you lose? That you were motivated for a time, and then the end came? You are never going to feel great about your...

I think the problem might be that Evolution is fundamentally disingenuous, if it doesn't admit there is at least one thing that doesn't need to evolve? From that we can conclude, it is an attempt "at something" (though it is not clear what). Those that succeed, from generation to generation...

The challenge we face as a faith, is remembering Jesus more, not less. Our thoughts about the anti-Christ ought to reflect that calling. Those that turn away from the Holy Spirit, will die - the anti-Christ will do that perpetually. Thus the anti-Christ will return to dust and only return as...

We have a real problem with blindspots, as a faith - can't God resurrect the dead physically and spiritually and rebirthingly as He sees fit?

The anti-Christ tests almost all powers. The circumstances surrounding his testing the power of the resurrection, are complicated - obviously we want to save him, if possible (God is not willing that any should perish, remember?). The fact is that the anti-Christ finds the gospel depressing...

Christianity is for life. Start to think in terms of the good life (three score years and ten (70 years) - according to Solomon). What kind of things can you pray, that will have an effect for the rest of your life, up to the good life to come? You could pray for family to come to know the...

There is a limitation to Evolution, that Evolutionists might not accept: the Devil won't hear that any one is more adapted than him. This is a stumbling block, to all who do not seek wisdom, in this life - that the Devil would be against them doing almost anything, for the fact that his part...

You have interpreted Hebrews 10:2 as meaning we are purged in this life - not at the end of it. What is amiss is that I am speaking of my faith, through the eyes of the Law - why would I seek to do that? Only because I seek to be reminded what my faith truly is. I am saying I continue to have...

Not distinguishing faith and believing does you a disservice. I did not say faith was not a work, I qualified that it is a 'kind' of work. There are things it is compatible with and things not. Saying faith means you are no longer interested in work, is a lie. What work we do, we do for the...

No? The prodigal son quite clearly changes his mind (before he returns to his father). I appreciate you would like to be certain that you will change, but hope for what one knows is not hope.

Hi there, So in this world of entertainment we have, the gospel of Christ can sometimes be lost. Not because people want to forget the gospel, but because our relationships exist on a very shallow plane - as Jesus said "a hard field, where the birds pick and eat the grain intended for the...

Hi there! So there is a strong need, at the moment, for the world to hear the bruising, that the Lord suffered, for their iniquity. Iniquity traps the world, such that it does not think there is a way out. There is a way out: Jesus, who was bruised for our iniquities (Isaiah 53:5). What we...
