    The works of faith

    We hold up OUR interpretation of His Law to Him and presume to tell Him that we are OK. (Approve ourselves). But, if we look at the full counsel of God, we know that we are only Ok if we endure to the end. One must finish his course to know whether he has kept the faith or not. Paul's 3 "I...

    Is The Pope in Jeopardy?

    Amidst pictures of the ailing condition of the Pope, news of an intense power struggle within the Vatican has overflowed publicly. The serious difficulties reveal ongoing financial corruption a midst ruthless infighting. These latest revelations regarding the affairs of the Vatican Bank are not...

    The works of faith

    Great thread, brothers. Abiding in Him and walking in the Spirit is a work of faith. Col 3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. (another work of faith). Col 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of...

    Where In The Faith Are You?

    Netchaplain, It seems to me (maybe I am wrong) that you glossed over my questions. When you repent of your sins does Jesus "cleanse you from all unrighteousness", as in 1 John 1:9? You say, "Axehead, our heart is not "being purified from unrighteousness" but has already been 'cleansed from all...

    Where In The Faith Are You?

    [/font][/color] That is the key, isn't it. "all who are His". 2Ti 2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are His. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. Notice that Paul implies in this verse...

    Why are Catholics so bad?

    The concept is there. Just like the Trinity.

    Why are Catholics so bad?

    If Catholic doctrine were in Scripture, we would accept it. The Bereans were open-minded but would search the scriptures to confirm. Axehead

    Sola Scriptura? Really?

    The evidence is there, however you only take Catholic historical evidence as authoritative. So, here we are on the treadwheel. :wacko: Axehead

    Guidelines for Revelation

    God's Word to you personally, will be God's Word to you and thus it must be obeyed whether it has it's source in Scripture or not. What I am trying to address is God's Word to someone personally, and how they would think it now becomes God's Word for everyone for all time in the same vein as...

    Guidelines for Revelation

    Np. Thank you. In my walk with God over the last 3 decades, I have had 3 dreams that warned me of future events. Two I obeyed and 1 I did not. If it wasn't for the mercy of God the 3rd one would certainly have come true and that would not have been good. These dreams were all personal and not...

    Guidelines for Revelation

    I appreciate the details that you bring. That is true. The messenger has to be obedient (against all opposition) and relay God's message. Otherwise, He may get a donkey to do His work. :D Totally agree. Axehead I hope so. I have not done Part II, yet. but I will give everyone time to...

    Guidelines for Revelation

    [/color][/color] I believe the Lord will progressively "unseal" or reveal to us in the latter days, what is already in Scripture. Not "NEW", extra-biblical revelation. And we know that NT prophetic gifts are for the building up of the Body, not foretelling of future events which then...

    Six ways to measure you church.

    Wonderful! Yes, you are on the right track. Jeremiah 23 is a good place to start. Eze 13 is noteworthy, too. I just posted Guidelines for Revelation and hope Neo will be edified. Part II, later on, but I have to get my day started, now. Axehead

    Guidelines for Revelation

    http://biblia.com/books/kjv/Lu6.16Part I - Guidelines for Revelation, today. Many think that Apostolic Revelation since Jesus' time has continued and therefore this continuiing "revelation" is equal with revelation given the Apostles and Prophets. Is there new revelation given each century...

    Sola Scriptura? Really?

    They are not convincing and the historical evidence points to around the 4th century for the start of the Catholic Church. None of their major doctrinal language and terms is even in the NT let alone their different hierarchical offices (except Bishop). Axehead

    Sola Scriptura? Really?

    Actually, there are numerous schisms and divisions within the Catholic Church. Is this the thread where I listed many of them? And I also said that "Conformity is not Unity". Axehead

    Six ways to measure you church.

    Meant to say "Apostles today are not writing scripture inspired by the Holy Spirit". That is finished. Axehead ]

    Why are Catholics so bad?

    Excellent Brother James. Today, we now have both the NT and OT and "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" (2Ti 3:16). Doesn't say all "Oral Tradition" or ANY "Oral Tradition". God is not...

    Six ways to measure you church.

    Not at all. Jesus said, "My church", meaning "One Church" and that church without question is still Apostolic. But it is a different type of Apostles today that we have. The Apostles today, are not writing scripture inspired by the Holy Scripture. Scripture is complete. " Every high priest...
