Haz's only gospel is a man that had minutes to live. But if he did live then the divine life of Jesus Christ in him would have produced works. No doubt about it! That is what the Spirit of God does in a Believer. Jesus Christ would have tested him just as He tests everyone's confession of faith...

Many thanks for the words of encouragement, Whitestone. Axehead

Jesus did come to save that which was lost, and that is done by abiding in Him and obeying Him. Not by saying a prayer or believing a doctrine. Love and compassion will preach the truth, the whole counsel of God and not be worried about being hated. Only the whole counsel of God helps people...

We have this witness from the Scriptures: Mat 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Mat 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few...

That is not presumption, but faith in what the Word declares and the Spirit gives you a witness of. The broad way of destruction is a road built with religious cobblestones. Satan can be very "religious" and "good", you know. The road that is broad has many trekking on it. "Few there be that...

No, I am not being snarky. Some people don't take Jesus' words seriously and the author of this OP does not even think Jesus' words should be adhered to because he (RichardBurger) says they are Old Testament. Do you also believe that? I wonder if Dave and Haz believe that? I absolutely agree...

Most people who profess to be Christians and to be born again do not really know Jesus and never have. The reason for this condition is that the ministries that have presented salvation to the people are in the flesh. They are sensual and worldly and view everything in the Bible through natural...

Trekson, We all agree that "our attempts at righteousness account for nothing", but the minute we are saved, Jesus begins leading us in His way and (which is away from our SELF). The only thing that accounts for anything is that we do what He tells us to do by His Spirit. Do you agree or do...

I find it very difficult to believe that Dave has worked on the streets with harlots and the like. The reason that I find it hard to believe is because I have and when you minister to those that have severe addictions, bondages and deadly lifestyles (drug abuse, promiscuity, etc), you encounter...

The devil's great purpose, and the fight that he is constantly engaged in is to keep the world in ignorance of himself, his ways, and his colleagues, and the Church is taking sides with him when siding with ignorance about him. Christians, of all people should keep an attitude of teach-ability...

Great post, Whitestone. You got it !! There are NO problems in the Kingdom of God and there is no fear in the perfect love of God. "In Him we live and move and have our being." Everything in this world rolls off our back like water off of a duck as we walk in His peace. We walk by faith and...

A.W. Tozer - “There is an evil, which in its effect on the Christian religion, may be more destructive than Communism, Romanism, and Liberalism combined. It is the glaring disparity between theology and practice among professing Christians. So wide is this gulf between theory and practice in...

Hey Dave, Here is some Tozer for you since he blesses you. In his book, I Call It Heresy, A.W. Tozer wrote: "To urge men and women to believe in a divided Christ is bad teaching for no one can receive half of Christ. Any message that presents a Savior who is less than Lord of all cannot claim...

Thank you Whitestone and dragonfly for those wonderful scriptures. Just as we partake of the Lord, He is partaking of us and He is looking for good fruit. Axehead

But isn't it wonderful that you can get rid of your guilt by paying your religious taxes. And it only costs you 10%. "Such a deal!!" Thanks Rip. Axehead

...that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. (Isaiah 61:3b) We need to bring truth back into Biblical perspective. I am convinced that truth overly emphasized to the neglect of other truths can lead one into error. It is time for the...

"GET SAVED" or "ACCEPT JESUS" and He will then bless, enhance, prosper and save the life that you are living in this world. The Word of God says to forsake your life in this world and give up everything in this world in your heart and after a short time of suffering and fiery ordeals (situations...

I did not actually miss that point, dave, I was bringing out something else about that story. There is a cost to following Jesus. Of course today's evangelism would say, "Hey, this Rich Young Ruler is famous and he would be a great convert (trophy) for our church and he could really bless the...

Those accusatory words are VILE, Dave. I guess your Gospel of Grace allows you to speak this way to others and harbor an unclean spirit. Axehead

Hi Strat, I know what you are saying and I agree. Companion verses for "God is not mocked", could be: Jud 1:3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith...
