    Just heard about the rosary....

    Luk_11:4 And forgive us our sins; (this is a prayer to the Father not men) for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. 1Jn_1:9 If we confess our sins, He (Jesus) is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse...

    Can a demon be saved?

    Luke 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. A demon cannot be saved. Judgement of God has already been pronounced upon them as Brother James alluded to when he said Hell was prepared for the Devil and his angels. His angels means all those that aligned...

    What if your definition of "Good" differs from God's?

    A Creator has the right to "test" His creation. God tests everything that He creates and declares it good or not. If not good, then just like the Potter He will start over with the lump of clay. God's righteousness can be seen in Creation. Everything He made produces after its kind and it has...

    Teaching Kids the Ten Commandments

    And if you have children you know that "more is caught than taught", so parenting is really 95% training (re-training) the parent and 5% training up the child. Children are blank hard drives at the beginning. Children are "watching" you at every turn and taking in everything about you, and you...

    What a Tangled Web They Weave

    The Evolving Doctrine of Mary A Case Study in the Progression of Error By Randy Blackaby Mary, the mother of Jesus, is one of the most interesting and important women found in Scripture. The Bible describes her magnificent faith from the time she becomes pregnant until she stands at the foot...

    Just heard about the rosary....

    [/font][/size] How do you know about anything that was not recorded? John did not make the statement that he made so that we could venture into conjecture and guessing and good ideas and logical fallacies. [size=4][font=lucida sans unicode] There is a mountain of documented evidence that...

    Can You Be Righteous

    Alright, well praise the Lord! There are some really good posts here. I thought the scripture that jiggyfly gave about "this treasure in earthen vessels" was great. It is amazing when you think about the fact that we are vessels and we either contain treasure (Jesus Christ) or fools gold...

    What do you think of long hair and beards?

    I always thought "reflecting Christ" was more a matter of character and the fruit of the Holy Spirit than how we present our flesh. I have had beards and have been clean shaven and can testify that neither made me more loving or less loving as the case may be. Axehead

    False Views of Righteousness

    Amen, why practice sin if you don't have to anymore? The power of it has been broken so now we really have a choice and can choose NOT TO sin. Rom 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. Prior...

    Teaching Kids the Ten Commandments

    The Law is a Schoolmaster designed to bring us to Christ. Teaching them the righteousness of God contained in the meaning of the 10 commandments is a good thing to do. Then tell them that they cannot fulfill the law without receiving Christ or giving their lives to Him as He gave His to them...

    Just heard about the rosary....

    [/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size] Because there is no corroborating witness in the Word of God. Thank you! You just made my point. There is a witness in the Word of God for these occurrences. It is not a question regarding impossibility or not since Christians believe the...

    Can You Be Righteous

    Doctrines of demons alter, change, twist or completely replace the Word of God. The first doctrine of demons was in the Garden. "Hath God said?" And Satan proceeded to tell Eve what God "really" meant. The following are examples of verses that have been twisted, changed, rationalized...

    Christian Character and Good Arguments

    True, Son of Man. Love does not say be "warmed and fed", and then just walk on and neither does it say "you are a good person" when you are putting burdens on other's backs that you won't carry yourself. Love is real and not pretentious. Love does not look for honor from men but from God. This...

    Adam......son of God.....Lk.3:38

    Adam was a created being. Gen 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Gen...

    Via or direct ?

    You are the one that made the statement, winc. I think we are all waiting for you to tell us how you came by this knowledge. Axehead

    Can You Be Righteous

    I don't pick and choose. I walk by the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus. Amen Jiggyfly!! I feel that we are connecting now. I totally agree with you. And that is my whole reason for bringing out the characteristics of the righteousness of God in His law. Not that we follow the law in the flesh...

    Polygamy

    Don't forget there is also the voice of the Holy Spirit. Christians have the Scriptures and the witness (voice) of the Holy Spirit. It is the Spirit that gives life to the letter, not vice-versa. "The purpose of all Scripture is to bear witness to Christ (John 5:39; 20:31). The Bible in itself...

    Polygamy

    Well, I found another article for you. Here is part of it: No known New Testament believer lived in polygamy and a careful look at Scripture indicates directly that, by New Testament times, polygamy was not considered acceptable moral behavior. How so? The standards of morality (like...

    Can You Be Righteous

    Hi Stan, We are not talking about receiving Christ, who is our Salvation by the law or by self-righteousness. We are talking about our walk after we receive Him, walking in love which fulfills the righteousness of God's law. If you are loving God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength and...

    Does the Bible Version or Translation Really Matter?

    KJV 25 Thus saith the Lord God; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob. Key truth underlined agrees with...
