    Loneliness

    I’m so sorry that you’re lonely and don’t think you’re a Christian. My recommendation is first make sure you’ve become a child of God by receiving Jesus, then find a church home where you can get fellowship and friendship, and maybe volunteer for charity work the church does, to meet even more...

    Jerusalem Is The Whore, Mystery Babylon The Great Of Revelation Chapter 17

    It’s not the church that Jesus saves when He returns and lands on Mount Olive in Zechariah 14, but Jerusalem. It’s not the church that Paul refers to in Romans ch. 11:1-2 when he says God has not cast out His people, Israel. Thus the nation of Israel remain His people. It’s not the church Paul...

    Jerusalem Is The Whore, Mystery Babylon The Great Of Revelation Chapter 17

    You completely miss the point. The Jews who reject Jesus as messiah are still trying to keep the old covenant law, which includes animal sacrifices in a specific type of temple - the same Jews who will accept the coming Antichrist as their messiah. During the middle of the tribulation the...

    EVERYONE IS DEMANDING RESULTS, EVIDENCE, PROGRESS, -- But When We Give It, It's Never Enough ...

    Were the Nuremberg trials secret? If military arrests and tribunal trials ever occur, it won’t be a secret. We’ve heard all this before years ago, about expanding gitmo and lots of military flights going there, and nothing ever came of it. You must have a short memory or are new to the Q psy...

    Loneliness

    The New Testament means the new covenant. Everything Jesus teaches in it pertains to followers of His, be it gentiles or Jews, who are therefore in the new covenant.

    Searching the Scriptures part#1

    It says not all believers have the same office, then goes on to talk about how each member of the body of Christ, has different tasks - hands, eyes, etc, and we need to accept which role or task we are given as a member of His body, and not be envious of other members. 12:12 For as the body is...

    Thorn in the flesh

    Sickness is never called a messenger in the Bible, but angels are. Thus a messenger from Satan would be a fallen angel, who was harassing Paul.

    Tongues of fire?

    I did this rare thing called reading the Bible, and discovered there are diversities of tongues, meaning more than just one kind. 1Co 12:10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to...

    Tongues of fire?

    Unknown languages sound like babbling - I’ve heard foreigners in stores talking to each other that sounds like babbling. Here’s your babbling: 1Co 14:2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh...

    Does the Bible teach the need for an initimate personal relationship with Christ?

    You are commanded to love God with all your heart. That’s a personal relationship to love anyone with all your heart. We are therefore commanded to have such.

    UNDERSTANDING OUR SALVATION

    So you missed the classic Calvinist argument he was making, I see. I went back and found the first one of many: In our natural condition we are unresponsive to the gospel: the Bible refers to us as “dead” in our sins (Romans 6:11). We are also unperceptive; the gospel is “veiled” to us, and...

    UNDERSTANDING OUR SALVATION

    That’s a well known KJV mistranslation. It’s faith IN Christ that saves us, not His faith that saves us. Gal 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of...

    UNDERSTANDING OUR SALVATION

    I see, you posit the usual Calvinist theology. Did you hear about the slaves in the south, who never escaped their masters, never tried to escape, and never even thought about or desired to escape their slavery? No? And neither has anyone else. Being a slave to sin does not equate to total...

    EVERYONE IS DEMANDING RESULTS, EVIDENCE, PROGRESS, -- But When We Give It, It's Never Enough ...

    Wonder what excuse they are inventing right now, for when nothing changes, yet again? Whatever it is, you’ll believe it and post it. Trump won’t be inaugurated July 4th. No mass arrests are ongoing. It’s a nice psy op touch to claim whenever someone shows up in public who’s supposed to be...

    UNDERSTANDING OUR SALVATION

    God gives faith, but we have free will to receive or reject faith, by resisting the Holy Spirit. Neither Paul or Peter were irresistibly saved, after being given faith. Romans 10:17 states how faith comes - it comes by hearing the word of God. The Holy Spirit, who is the one who draws us to...

    Mercy

    Same way we have love, but still demand justice and punishment for criminals and lawbreakers.

    Mercy

    But will Jesus punish anyone? Yes. He sends workers of iniquity to hell. Matthew 25. And when Jesus returns it’s with flaming fire, a big sword and the wrath of God.
