YES, so!! God may not have written the Books called the Holy Bible, per se, but dictated the words He wanted written. We read in 2 Peter 1:20-21: 20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of...

I believe you have NOT gotten the gist of Ephesians 1:4-6, because you must first define the word "us" and I promise you it doesn't say "all of humanity." If it did then rightly so there will no one be put in hell, yet the Bible declares that hell will heavily be populated!! Likewise, you must...

How do you know the 1000 year reign is NOT a parable? And, how do you know Jesus will take care of the rest seeing you have no knowledge of Scripture? How do you know you are a child of God? How do you make yourself ready? You are in a scary situation. Just asking questions. To God Be The Glory

To All, Can anyone tell me where in the Bible it is stipulated that there will be a Millennium Reign of Christ on earth, aside from Revelation 20? Because I don't read anywhere that there will be a one thousand years reign of Jesus, seeing that God spoke in parables and without a parable He...

So who is the king maker? YOU or God who has elected the called in eternity past, before the foundation of the world, and are made destined to salvation? 2 Corinthians 5:17 is the RESULT of salvation and NEVER the CAUSE!! To God Be The Glory

THAT"S TRUE! Revelation 21:3-4 reads: 3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God [is] with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, [and be] their God. 4 And God shall wipe away all tears from...

YOU ARE NOT GOD!! Better get on your knees and ask for forgiveness. Matthew 18: 21-22 reads: 21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? 22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until...

Not quite. "For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake [as they were] moved by the Holy Ghost." To God Be The Glory

First we must separate 1 Peter 3:18 which speaks of the cross from 1 Peter 3:19 which does NOT speak about the cross. We read in Luke 4:18: "The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor (in spirits;)" he hath sent me to heal the...

I think you're jumping to conclusions. Did you forget 2 Corinthians 5:8? Same idea as a born again child of God when he dies his spirit goes to be with his Lord!! "To be absent from the body IS (present tense) to be present with the Lord." The term, "preach to the spirits in hades" meant that...

Where did Jesus go when he died? Jesus told the good thief, "Today thou shalt be with me in paradise." For those who say paradise is in the good side of "sheol" or "hades" have NOT really read, Luke 23:46, well enough to understand when Jesus cried with a loud voice: "Father, into thy hands I...

If you are not edified in the market place (online forums) it is perhaps you have more understanding than others of what Scripture have stipulated, and that is what I have perceived when you first joined CB. You may not be edified on these forums but have you ever thought that many here might...

I concur. Good insight.

To all those who have been discussing the "First Resurrection" and "Where did Jesus go upon death," and if someone already said what I have to say it's because I have not read the whole thread. FIRST RESURRECTION Actually, the first resurrection were given to all those in Christ who were...

Read and weep....Matthew 1:21: And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. His people are all those that the Father gave to Jesus in eternity past, before the foundation of the world!! Jesus said, "No man can come to me...

How do you know that Calvin taught that John 3: 16 is a lie. Do you know the gist of John 3:16? To God Be The Glory

I guess you've never heard nor read 1 Peter 3:15: But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and [be] ready always to [give] an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: To God Be The Glory

John 3:16 is the most quoted verse in the world and yet the most misunderstood!! Ask yourself this question, "How did God love the world?" And who are the "whosoever?" If God provided salvation to the whole world, who then will go to hell? NONE!! In fact, Matthew 1:21 declares: He will save...

True you will not find words stating that God predestinated people to hell, but you will find that God DID predestinated people to heaven. Read and weep: Ephesians 1: 4-6; 11-12 4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without...

The problem I see with the above is sola fide (faith alone). Is this the faith of man? To God Be The Glory
