Well, it’s Bible Highlighter and not “Jason/Bible highlighter.” Oh, and yes. I did used to believe (past tense) that the New Testament commands from Finnis Jennings Dake (1050) were accurate (for the most part). But after much study, I found that Dake’s 1050 NT Commands are not an accurate...

Again, it does not matter what I or Joe the Christian down the street does. We will all have to face our Maker and Savior. Jesus says if we do not receive His words, those words will judge us on the last day (See: John 12:48). While I don’t know the exact number of Christians are saved, if...

Look. Jesus says if you look upon a woman in lust, you are in danger of having your whole body cast into hellfire. So if something like that can keep you out of God’s kingdom, imagine what else can? Jesus did not say… Oh, just pay lip service to me in saying you are forgiven but you can keep...

Looking up this term it is Muslim in origin. So why imitate what Muslims say?

The problem with this kind of thinking is that what does “missing the mark” mean? It could be porn, theft, or whatever a person wants it to mean. In short, it is a justification of evil while under God’s grace and is no different than justifying lots of sin (like unbelievers). Remember, it only...

But it’s not really necessary to forgive in OSAS or the sin and still be saved camps. They believe you will still be saved. But Jesus says if you do not forgive, the Father will not forgive you (Matthew 6:15). This verse right here refutes the popular sin and still be saved theology in...

Like all gifts in life, they come with responsibilities in order to maintain them. You can receive a free car as a gift, but if you don’t take care of that car or obey the traffic laws, you can end up losing your gift. The Bible speaks the same way about the gift of salvation. It talks about...

The problem I have with Mailmandan’s kind of thinking is that it is overconfidence in one’s salvation. When push comes to shove, he believes 1 John 1:8 is an excuse to sin on some level. But the Bible says work out your salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12). In other words, why...

First, fakirs is a Muslim term. Not sure why you would use that. Second, in Luke 15: When the prodigal son came home and sought forgiveness with his father, his father said that he was “dead” and he is “alive again.” This of course was speaking in spiritual terms. For the son did not die...

Right, George Washington was a Mason. Masonry is not biblical. So its no surprise he thought in unbiblical terms (like many here) on the matter of Jesus teaching Non-Violence.

Again, read the book of Acts more closely. You will read about how Christians were persecuted and beaten and imprisoned. This is kind of hard to do if they had swords, and they fought back when threatened. In other words, after Peter’s sword blunder and Jesus 5 point rebuke of using the sword...

I don’t believe 1 John 1:9 is talking about Initial Salvation. I am saying there are those in your camp who believe that way to undo what it says. The question is: How do you view 1 John 1:9? Do you honestly believe 1 John 1:9 in that it says if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to...

Not true. The Sabbath is a ceremonial law because it is primarily ceremony or ritual based in the fact that you observe a particular day (Saturday) to rest, and its not instinctual in knowing to do good (Romans 2:14). There is nothing hardwired into men that says that not keeping the Saturday...

1 John 3:7 says, “Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.” So does that mean John and Paul disagreed? No. Paul was referring to the Old Law or the 613 Laws of Moses given to Israel. Paul was attacking the heresy of which I...

I know that the Spirit is given to those who obey Him. Acts of the Apostles 5:32 “And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.”

What I have found over the years is that Christian forums have challenged what I have believed and I searched the Scriptures to see whether those things be so or not. I have changed on 18 things theologically over the years. But a person just sitting in a church is not challenged. They just...

I believe that believing in Jesus is more than just a belief (although it includes a belief). It is believing everything Jesus taught and said. Jesus said, why do you call me, Lord, Lord if you do not do what I say? (Luke 6:46). But yes. I agree that eternal life means eternal life, and the...

Ah yes. That makes sense now. It is a Calvinist forum. One of the beliefs by Matt Slick (Carm) that really made my head explode was that he states that Jesus worshiped the Father. This is simply not possible. God does not worship Himself.

But a Pastor of a church can just as equally lie just like lying or deceptive commentaries. So where does a person go? They go to the Bible and they study it with God’s help. We know in 1 John 2:27 says that they did not need any man to teach them because they had the Anointing (the Spirit)...

Wow. So sorry this happened to you. Then again, darkness hates the light, brother. All we can do is just love them, and pray for them in such situations. Side Note: If you don’t mind me asking: Did this happen at ChristianForums.com or was it another forum? Again, if it is too...
