    Do I Have To Go To Church?

    Face facts windmill, the mature Christian is so often the one person the pastor fears the most because if he gives him something to do he will be shown up to be the shallow person that he is. I have one theological degree, one undergrad uni degree, and two post-grad uni degree. I am a uni...

    Do I Have To Go To Church?

    Do you know why you like your little bible study better? In case you don't here is the answer. It is the real deal. The other isn't.

    Do I Have To Go To Church?

    No one can go to church as you are the church so you can't go to yourself.

    Tongues, a SIGN to the UNBELIEVER

    Being autistic I don't kid. I have been anointed to teach by the risen Christ for many years now and not once have I needed prophecy to teach. My source of authority and information has always been the Holy Spirit. I have never needed to forthtell to be able to teach. My main source is the word...

    Do you belong to "the [true] Church" (1 Tim 3:15)?, if so, how do you prove it?

    You are setting the cat amongst the pigeons. Well done!! I notice that the verse in 1 Timothy 3:15 in the greek that where it says about knowing how to behave in the house of God, it means a dwelling and more implicitly a family. So that gives credence to the verse that says where two or three...

    "This one.": Which religion is "this one?"

    Tongues, a SIGN to the UNBELIEVER

    A person who has been given the ministry of teaching by Jesus does not need prophecy to teach. The scriptures says that the Holy Spirit will lead you into all truth. It does not say that prophecy will lead you into all truth. In fact, it is easy to be led astray by prophecy.

    Tongues, a SIGN to the UNBELIEVER

    2Timothy 3:16 EVERYTHING in the Scriptures is God's Word. All of it (please note, all of it, not some of it) is useful for teaching and helping people and for correcting them and showing them how to live. 2Timothy 3:16 ALL SCRIPTURE is God-breathed and profitable for doctrine, for reproof...

    Why do we need priests?

    If that is what he was talking about, then that is what I would have said as being autistic, I am not into spinning yarns. All I have done is told you what he told me and as you were not there you cannot dispute what I have said much as you would like to. In fact, all you have done is what he...

    Why do we need priests?

    Like so many churches, the RC church believes that if they say something then it must be. Whether it is or not is not relevant to them. They are the final authority so what they say has to be believed and accepted. I worked in a catholic school for some time and asked a few pertinent questions...

    Why do we need priests?

    And have you noticed the curtain was torn from TOP to BOTTOM? When we tear anything we tear it from bottom to top. A clear sign that God was at work to open the door to himself.

    Why do we need priests?

    The priest thing is a throwback to the Roman Catholic Church. We have to bear in mind that most ordinary people could not read whereas the priest could he was their interpreter of all things spiritual. So in that respect, he was very much needed. When the bible was printed in volume, the priest...

    Tongues, a SIGN to the UNBELIEVER

    Never heard of it and every book we sold passed across my desk first. After looking through the internet, I found a book by that title by an L. M. Pope. Is that you because if it is I noticed the cover hid the fact that you are a female author, you are referred to as L.M.Pope and elsewhere as...

    Tongues, a SIGN to the UNBELIEVER

    I didn't ask you what books you had read. I asked you what books have you written. You do know there is a difference, don't you? And how many are most books? I am interested to hear as I was at one time National Sales Manager of a Christian book company so I know that scene very well.
