    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    So what do you make of Jesus saying to Nicodemus that we must be born again to enter the Kingdom of God? Read John chapter 3.

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    Again, you are ignoring the immediate context of Matthew 5:48. Read from verse 38 (Matthew 5:38) on down to Matthew 5:48. Being perfect as the Heavenly Father is perfect is in context to loving your enemies and doing good towards them. Here are the things we as believers are to do so as to be...

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    First, Proverbs 18:13 says, “He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.” Second, are you simply refusing to see Scripture verses in order to not deal with them? That's what the Pastor in the video presents. Lots of Scripture. Of course, you have not...

    @BloodBought 1953 I challenge you to check out all the verses in this video.

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    Read the context of Ephesians 2:8-9. You will discover that the context says, “you hath he quickened,” (Ephesians 2:1). To be quickened means to be made alive (to be resurrected). When did this happen? When we first came to the Lord Jesus Christ in our Initial Salvation. I know. I received...

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    First, you are not dealing with the verses I presented that talk about how only past sin is forgiven you. Second, Colossians 2:13 does not say future sin but it simply says, “having forgiven you all trespasses” which can easily be in reference to past sins. In fact, past sin has to be the...

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    The Bible teaches only past sins are forgiven us (not future sins). Believers need to confess and forsake sin to continue to obtain forgiveness (or salvation). Here are the verses in the Bible that teach or imply that past sins only are forgiven: 2 Peter 1:9 KJB “But he that lacketh these...

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    Yes, I was not saying you condemn the Catholic Church. My problem is that you have fellowship with them and then you appeared to take issue with me saying that. They justify many sins like Necromancy, and idolatry. You justify sin in the fact that fornication (sex before marriage) does not...

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    Explaining 1 John 3:6 and 1 John 3:9: Modern Translations will say practice sin or continue in sin in 1 John 3:9 (as if to say it is talking exclusively of practicing sin), but this is not the case in the trusted KJV (that existed hundreds of years long before the Modern Translations showed...

    OSAS Believers Never Preach Righteousness

    But even your crowd sings the same song and dance in that one can sin and still be saved on some level. For your camp believes 1 John 1:8 is a banner flag that we must always be in some kind of sin this side of Heaven.

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    I don't believe I am twisting your words. You said in another thread, I quote: “I fellowship and worship with the Catholics in the pews....and worship Mary? Yes I say my Hail Mary's. I do not have a lot of use for the Catholic Church administration above the local priest.” ~ Grailhunter. Post...

    Is your Faith in the Bible or is it in God?

    That's not how it works. I don't have to prove I have faith in God without the Bible because God's Word says that is where we get our faith from for today (Romans 10:17) (2 Timothy 3:16). If you reject His words, then you are rejecting the one true God. Under our current time in history...

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    If you don't condemn the Catholic church, then do you still fellowship with them or do you not see a problem in fellowshiping with them? Do you plan to fellowship with Catholic, Orthodox, or Mormon churches in the future or would not have a problem in doing so today? I say this because you...

    What does being born again mean?

    In 1992: I was born again and accepted Jesus as my Savior and was changed spiritually on a radical level. I was water baptized in April of 2013. But I did not partake of water baptism in order to be saved or to maintain my salvation. I came to be convinced of Spirit baptism as the one only...

    What does being born again mean?

    I believe water baptism was temporary and it can be done by believers today (as long as they do not do so as part of accessing faith or salvation, etcetera). In the early church: Water baptism was a symbol of Christ's death (Romans 6:3, Romans 6:5). Jesus even referred to His death upon the...

    What does being born again mean?

    I believe a Christian can be water baptized but they would have to believe with all their heart by partaking in it. But I don't believe it is correct if they believe that baptism is a necessary requirement to become initially saved or as a part of our salvation (i.e. eternal life). For...

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    I am a Non-denominational Christian who believes that “the Bible + The Anointing to Understand It” is our sole guide for all matters of faith and in living out that faith (i.e. works of faith in living a holy life). Man made traditions come from popular church organizations. Most today do not...

    Types of Christians….what type are you?

    Well, you did not clarify that you now condemn the Catholic, Orthodox churches, etcetera. So you don’t still plan on attending Catholic Churches or Orthodox churches or Mormon churches (or have fellowship with a small group of them) in the future?

    Is your Faith in the Bible or is it in God?

    We would not have faith in God today if it was not for the Bible. The Bible is how we are able to have faith in God. To not know this means one is not born by the Spirit and by His Word. To reject the Bible is to reject God. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God (2 Timothy 3:16). Faith...
