    My Christian DVD Collection

    After much meditation, I ended up removing the Christian film called Treasure Lies from my DVD Collection. Language that children should not repeat was one thing that bothered but the major reason I removed this movie from my collection is because it pushes a false interpretation on 1 John 1:9...

    Trash should be thrown away. Besides, you really only need one book… and that is the Bible.

    William Barclay…. 1. Denied the virgin birth. 2. Was a Universalist. 3. Was an Evolutionist. 4. Questioned the miracles of Jesus. 5. Did not believe the story of Jonah was real. 6. Did not have a problem in others calling him a liberal. 7. Made contradictory statements about the deity of...

    The Popular False Justification and False Sanctification View Today.

    You are indirectly preaching against the words of Jesus and the doctrine according to godliness because your diplomatic immunity to sin type belief has no consequences to lead a person to truly live godly and to truly desire to heed Jesus’ words on His warnings against how sin can destroy our...

    Yes, it’s true. I will never understand your “anti-biblical diplomatic immunity to sin” type belief because it’s is not only against God’s Holy Word, but it is against basic morality. Your view on sin and salvation sets up a license to sin (Regardless of whether you agree or not). For if you...

    #6. Ezekiel 14:6 says, "Repent, and turn yourselves from your idols;" Repent makes the most sense here if a person is asking God for forgiveness by way of prayer instead of a person just believing in God. Naturally a person believes in God as their Savior if they are planning on forsaking their...

    First, 1 John 1:9 and 1 John 2:1 teaches that you have to confess of your sins to Jesus (our advocate) in order to be forgiven of sin. 1 John 1:9 is not in reference to Initial Salvation but Continued Salvation. John was writing to the brethren (See 1 John 2). John was telling them to “sin...

    I am not in disagreement that Sanctification is progressive and it takes time for many believers to grow and mature so as to put away sin at some point in their life. Not all believers go from zero to hero overnight or even over a good couple of years. However, overcoming sin in this life is...

    I am not surprised most here don’t get it. We are living in the last days (2 Timothy 3:1-9). Most today treat sin as if it is no more dangerous than a fluffy kitten. They see how sin can maybe chastise you in this life or how you may lose rewards in Heaven, but lose your salvation? Oh, it...

    Things are not as we wish them to be. God had not given believers diplomatic immunity against sin. Period. Jesus taught clearly about how certain sins can keep you out of God’s Kingdom (See Matthew 5:28-30) (Matthew 6:15) (Matthew 12:37) (Matthew 25:31-46) (Luke 9:62). Jesus agreed with the...

    Paul did not overstep the words of Jesus Christ. Paul says in 1 Timothy 6:3-4 that if any man teaches contrary to the words of Jesus Christ and the doctrine according to godliness, he is proud and he knows nothing. James says God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble (James 4:6). If...

    No. It’s called the Bible. 1 John 3:7 says: “Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.” 1 John 3:10 says: “In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of...

    James was referring to breaking of the Royal Law of love. James is not referring to non-death sins like 1 John 5:16, and in Matthew 5:22 (See: Matthew 5:22 in the AMP Translation). Also, no believer makes excuses for sin. That is what the Protestant does. They say they will always sin this...

    Paul’s point is in dealing with Initial Salvation by God’s grace without works in the 1st aspect of salvation because of Circumcision Salvationism. Paul was not referring to what happens after one is saved by God’s grace. The Jews were trying to deceive Gentile Christians to be circumcised in...

    Do you not still believe in Universal Salvationism? If so… I don’t believe you are qualified to give an answer on the topic of this conversation (Because you are only going to keep speaking from a Universalist perspective). The argument is dealing with the popular Protestant belief that says...

    There are Grace Commands (For our Initial and Foundational Salvation), and there are Sanctification Commands (For the Secondary Aspect of our Salvation). While there are Grace Commands in the New Testament, I believe God provided them for the Jews because they are law focused. I think the...

    You believe in Universal Salvation (in that even the wicked will eventually be saved). This is another wrong belief altogether. I am addressing the problems in popular Christianity or Protestantism (i.e. Baptist churches, etcetera). Protestant churches ignore 2 Thessalonians 2:13, Romans...

    How do you know? Do you have a secret microchip recording their thoughts? Do you know all believers and their minds on the planet? Also, I think a believe a Christian would seek forgiveness with the Lord even over non-death sins because they treat all sin as grieving their Lord. Anyways, the...

    Many Protestant Christians (not all) believe in the great commission in telling all nations to keep His commandments. Yet, on the other hand, they say they will always sin this side of Heaven by a false interpretation on 1 John 1:8 (Which is contradictory to teaching others to telling all...
