You must receive Christ in order to become a child of God. If that is not an act of the will, I don't know what is. John 1:13 shows us that we cannot muster up salvation as an act of the will; which does not preclude that we must not make a free will decision to receive Christ in order to...

What is written in the verse is clear: if you have hatred in your heart towards any brother, you do not have eternal life abiding in you. I know that I had a huge problem with anger before I came to Christ. But when I became born again, the love, joy, and peace of the Holy Spirit flooded in...

1Jo 3:15, Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. I think that what matters is that you not have any hatred for your brother in your heart in the present moments of your life.

So, grace means that I can sin and still be saved, correct? Just trying to get an accurate understanding of your theology. If the answer to the question is yes, my next question is, Does that apply to sins like murder?

The only essential on the list would be the Deity of Christ.

I believe that you are mistaken because of the following. Rom 8:12, Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. Rom 8:13, For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. Here, I...

DEFUND THE PSYCHIATRIC SYSTEM.

DEFUND THE PSYCHIATRIC SYSTEM.

Does faith, to you, mean that you can do whatever you want and still be saved; even if what you want to do is to live carnally? Is unbelief the notion that we are accountable to God for the things that we do in this life?

The righteousness that Zacharias and Elizabeth had was the righteousness of the law. Paul the apostle had this same righteousness prior to being redeemed (Philippians 3:6)... He counted it as dung in order that he might be able to grab hold of the righteousness which is of God by faith...

Yes, there are three heavens... 1) the air around us (the atmosphere of earth) 2) outer space 3) the place where God's throne is

If anyone falls on the wrong side of any of these arguments and they are also an essential doctrine that is being argued, it should be clear that the person on the wrong side of the argument cannot be classified as a Protestant. However, most of what you have mentioned above falls under the...

It really depends on who is taking in your theology. My commendation to you that you don't have any desire to sin...however, for those who do have a desire to sin, your theology does indeed give them "license"...and it gives them a false hope that they will go to heaven even if they...

You continue to be the proverbial "thorn in the flesh" to me... You want to say that I am accursed? I will say that I believe that you are accursed...your condemnation was written about long ago; as you are one of those who teaches grace as a license for immorality... Jude 1:3-4 (NIV) speaks...

The law of God is binding on unbelieving Jews and Gentiles. Romans 3:19 makes this clear: all the world will be held guilty before God because of what is written in the law. In Romans 3:20, by the law is the knowledge of sin; and in 1 John 3:4, sin is the transgression of the law. So, the law...

It is not that we need to pinpoint every sin that we have ever committed and then repent of each of them individually. The Holy Spirit is able to pinpoint our sins as we walk in the light as He is in the light. What repentance is, is that we make a 180-degree turn. Previously we were walking...

I do. Not out of any love intrinsic in me as a human being; but because the love of the Lord has been shed abroad in my heart through the Holy Ghost (Romans 5:5).

I don't find that the "40,000+" denominations teach in contradiction to one another. I also think that that is an exaggerated number. The reality is that all of these "denominations" are unified in the essential doctrines and may only differ as concerning non-essentials; such as style of...

Of course a person can fashion their lives so that they never hear about what is written in the word. But for those of us who go to church and read our Bibles, the word of God acts as a sharpened, two-edged sword and it does indeed enforce obedience.

The "walking away", is a common argument against eternal security as it is presented in John 10:27-30. Rather than say that it is not a valid loophole, I address that loophole with Jeremiah 32:38-40.
