When were you appointed judge? 4 For I know of nothing against myself, yet I am not justified by this; but He who judges me is the Lord. 5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the...

The bible proves it if you just take the time to study it. I'm not the Holy Spirit so it isn't my job to convince you of anything. Your last comment isn't even deserving of an answer. Read the bible. Paul answered all these carnal minded objections roughly 2000 years ago and he was the Apostle...

Pretty much the same as anyone else. There are lots of prophecies against nations in scripture, but very few against individuals. Salvation to eternal life isn't a national promise, but a promise to individuals. There are promises of national restorations and not just to Israel, but a national...

The kingdom of Israel after the split between Rehoboam and Jeroboam was removed into captivity by the Assyrians and the bible gives no examples of what became of those tribes. They were already worshipping idols from the start of the Northern kingdom because Jeroboam built his own temple in...

The gods of all the nations in the Mediterranean worshipped idols of wood and stone. The book of Daniel tells us that the entire population of Babylon had to bow down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar had erected for his glory (such idols were hammered gold over wood, pure gold...

No, Jesus' ministry was to the Jews under the law. He taught God's grace from the text of the Torah and was called Rabbi by His peers. 24 But He answered and said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Matthew 15:24 5 These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them...

That would be the assyrian and Babylonian captivities. The Assyrians removed the Northern tribes of Israel first, then the Babylonians removed the tribes of Judah and Benjamin in the days of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon.

Every obedient born again Christian does. 21 I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good. 22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity...

It isn't clear at all because Jesus was speaking to an audience of Jews under the law of Moses (and under its curses). In the post Pentecost discussions between Paul the Apostle to the gentile church, and the elders of the church in Jerusalem, the elders placed no requirements from the law upon...

Do you know what the biblical definition of a fool is?

It can be in the sense that God is our great reward (entirely scriptural) but not our only inheritance.

Because it's a conditional statement contrasting living according to the flesh to living according to the Spirit. If you want to hold lovingly to error that isn't condemning, it just prevents you from receiving more truth. The fear or God is the beginning of wisdom, not the end of it. Love is...

Is the will of man greater than the will of God? Children can be foolish and resist correction but God even gives us a verse for fools following the way: A highway shall be there, and a road, And it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, But it shall be for...

Sanctification is a life long process, just as salvation is, but it is the work of God and it is impossible for God to fail. Paul expressed his confidence as such: 12 For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that...

I don't believe that it's possible for someone sealed with His Spirit to loose their salvation because that denies what scripture plainly says in all related passages except in the hypothetical statement made in Hebrews 6:6 (which is clarified by Hebrews 6:9.) The Apostle Paul has already...

I've never made an argument that Christians shouldn't do good works as scripture plainly states that we were created to do them, but salvation and sanctification are entirely the work of the Holy Spirit and if we do anything truly "good" it was God working in us that made it happen. Even our...

Your characterization of "white people " is probably the most racist post here, but racism is nothing new to the church at large.

It's not my intention to pour fuel on the fire, but the Falashas, a black people of Ethiopian origin were officially accepted as legitimate Jews and granted Israeli Citizenship in 1975. Most have since emigrated to Israel from Ethiopia to avoid persecution by the Ethiopian Christians (they have...

That explains a lot. Have a nice life.

A passage isn't a book, but typically addresses a single concept, idea, or event. You've omitted the most important part.
