Gods nature never changes, but His covenants did - we are in a new covenant founded on better promises. The old covenant law you quoted, if you kept it, requires you to keep 613 statures, laws, and commandments down to the last jot and tittle (period and comma), including animal sacrifices, and...

I agree with you, nearly 100% - the only comment I will add, is that Paul wrote that the new covenant went into effect with the death of Jesus - but we know from Romans 11 that for now most of Israel is in unbelief, except for a remnant, thus relatively few of them are in their own new covenant...

Mary was not sinless, not a perpetual virgin, is not called full of grace in the koine Greek MSS, was not assumed bodily to heaven while alive, and does not rule with Jesus as the queen of heaven, she is not an intercessor, and she can’t hear and answer millions of prayers to her 24/7 in all the...

No.

You’ve got the facts all twisted up and distorted, so I’ll leave you to your private interpretation of scripture.

Except the thief on the cross made it to paradise sans water baptism. And in Acts 10, Peter was preaching to a crowd, heard them speak in tongues, and said, can anyone forbid water for those who have received the Holy Spirit, as we did? Since God doesn’t give the Holy Spirit to the unsaved...

You just need a Delorean and a flux capacitor.

Many of the rewards don’t really involve skill - the martyrs reward is the highest reward, and helping the needy gets rewarded, etc, with the caveat that all good works done for wrong motives, loses any reward. That’s what it means that our works are tried by fire - good works done with...

Romans 14 outlines the principle that if you think something is a sin, then if you do that something, then you’ve sinned. It ends with this: Rom 14:22 The faith that you have, keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who has no reason to pass judgment on himself for what he approves...

Everything you said is wrong. The new covenant is still with the HOUSE of Israel, meaning national Israel: Heb 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the HOUSE of Israel and with the house of Judah: To make it...

The first thing that applies is the biblical principle that says if you think something is a sin, then you sin if you do whatever that is. Second thing is if you do it while fantasizing about sex with anyone you’re not married to, or while looking at porn, that’s the sin of lust. IMO, if you...

Prophecy given in church and interpreted is not a sign of anything. It’s a message from God to a congregation. Your claim about seeking a sign is bogus. Jesus rebuked the unbelievers who mocked Him and demanded He perform a sign to prove who He is, and he called them an evil generation. This...

That’s on earth, not in heaven. When one dies their fate, and rewards, are sealed. Shalom.

I already explained that. The souls of the redeemed who die go to heaven, and at the resurrection and rapture, they are reunited with their resurrected and immortalized bodies. The verse about Jesus bringing them with Him is clearly saying that at His second coming, He brings the souls in...

Mormons believe in three separate Gods for their trinity - not one God manifest as three persons. The Mormon Heavenly Father is an exalted man of flesh and blood, who became a God, one of a plethora of other gods who sit together at the council of Gods. The Mormon Jesus was conceived through...

And evolution proponents lie, and claim they made a synthetic living cell, when all they did was take an already existing bacteria, and snip out a sequence of DNA, and replace it with modified DNA. They can’t even begin to make a living cell from scratch - not even the cell membrane can they...

Your outhouse memories reminds me of the joke about the book called: FIFTY YARDS TO THE OUTHOUSE, written; by Willie Make-it, and Betty Don’t...

After Jesus atoned for sins, souls of the righteous go to heaven. John the revelator saw souls under the altar in heaven. When Jesus returns, He brings those souls with Him to be united with their resurrected and immortal bodies during the resurrection: 1Th 4:13 But I would not have you to...

There are different levels of rewards in heaven. The martyrs reward is the top reward in heaven. Each level of reward gets a crown. Works of believers are judged at the Bema seat - the works they did such as giving to or helping the poor and needy, and motives for the good done are also...

That’s blatantly obvious. The law is still in place, but not for Christians who’ve died to the law. My prior post was too clear to obfuscate. Put your little proof text in context: Rom 3:27 What, then, can we boast about? Nothing! And what is the reason for this? Is it that we obey the Law...
