We are saved by His Life. He is our Salvation. Rom_5:10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. You are not saved by a prayer, a creed or a formula. You are saved by HIS LIFE. Therefore we...

Thank you, Episkopos. Simple answers for simple questions. Stan, do you agree with Episkopos' answers? Ginomai appears in the NT 200 times. In John 1:14, ginomai appears. The Word was made flesh. In John 1:14 and 2 Cor 5:21 the present tense of ginomai is used. God become flesh in our human...

Hi Aspen, I know who Mary is, and am not attacking Mary of the Bible. I am just posting what your Popes have said about Mary. Would you mind telling me how I have attacked the Mary of the Bible? The Mary of the Bible is probably happy I am writing this, but unfortunately she doesn't know what...

Joe, every way that you display God and His character not only towards His Children but those outside of Christ is so completely unscriptural that it is difficult at best to take anything you say seriously. Not only do you demean and do serious damage to God's character and attributes but you do...

I prefer the KJV for 1 Cor 5:21. It agrees with Mounce's Phi 3:9 and KJV Phi 3:9. The Righteousness that we have is the righteousness of Christ by faith. We are being conformed to Him in this life. We are being made righteous in Him by faith. This is the walk of sanctification, deliverance...

What does "regenerate" mean to you?

Faith is not a one time event just like one prayer cannot save anyone. What makes you think being a Christian is just about getting a ticket to heaven? Is there more in this life besides getting the ticket? Is God just handing out tickets and then saying, I will see you when you die? Axehead

In Roman Catholicism, Mary rather than Christ is "the supreme Minister of the distribution of graces." Pope Pius X, Ad Diem Illum Laetissimum, no 12. "And from this community of will and suffering between Christ and Mary she merited to become most worthily the Reparatrix of the lost world and...

Hi Aspen, How does Mary point you to Christ? Does she communicate to you? Actually, we are surrounded by the witness of their lives (Hebrews 11) that they lived on earth and their deeds of faith. Rom 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we...

Hi dragonfly, I hope Stan responds to you and I hope you and Stan don't mind if I comment. I do appreciate you setting the record straight that no one is trying to ambush anyone and I certainly don't see you attempting do that. I don't believe our old soul (mind, will, emotions) died and I...

In the New Testament we see time and time again that Jesus points to the Father and the Holy Spirit draws our attention to Jesus Christ. Absolutely nothing in the Scriptures draw us to Mary for life, or guidance, or comfort, or peace or deliverance. So, if neither one of the Trinity are causing...

All we have to do is what the Lord commands us to do by his Spirit. It is quite an indictment against today's Fallen Away Church that many Christians are testifying that they give but not to religious organizations. Axehead

Immaculate Conception - Sinless Life If one undertakes a thorough study of the Old and New Testament they will find not find any information about Mary's birth, her parents, her childhood and most anything else. The Early Church Apostles and Saints knew nothing of Mary's origins, mainly because...

Not sure what you would like discussed when you take a couple of sentences and exclude the rest of the Lord's conversation. But, that is generally what is often done.

If you stay in context in Luke you will notice judgement and condemnation belong to God and there will be a judgment and condemnation. Luk 6:37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: Luk 6:49 But he that...

Excellent post, dragonfly.

Absolutely, because one is partaking of the evil one and using his means and methods even though they may not think so. God does not manipulate. The Lord respects our free choice to choose and manipulation does not respect the individual's will or freedom of choice to say no to the will of the...

I am glad you mentioned "rebellion", dragonfly. "Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft". Let's look at the entire verse: 1Sa_15:23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected...

God is not a "respecter of persons". Salvation has appeared to all men and He desires all men to be saved. Problem is: Not all men desire to turn from their idols to serve the Living God. God made choosing creatures and love does not force itself on others, but rather speaks the truth to them...

What is in the Word and what is not. What is not declared in God's Word is: Saints are omnipresent (can hear everyone's prayers) Mary is omnipresent (can hear everyone's prayers) We abide in Mary We abide in the Saints What is declared: God is omnipresent Satan is not omnipresent We are to...
