    KJV Only...which one!

    No offense: While you may claim to have studied the KJB vs. the Modern Bible issue for the past 30 years I don’t believe you have been doing an unbiased in-depth study because you don’t appear to be aware that the newest NKJV at times actually alters the text at times to favor the Westcott and...

    KJV Only...which one!

    Now you are just spewing out things that are absolutely not true. Not even Textual Critics would agree with you on that one. Note: Do you believe it is true that Jesuit Catholic priests secretly infiltrate Protestant churches to serve the greater Catholic Rome Agenda?

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    How were you initially saved? Was it by water baptism like in the Church of Christ? Perhaps this is the reason why you cannot see the verses I have shown to you (like Romans 4:3, Romans 4:9-12, etcetera). Obedience can apply to both one believing (In Initial Salvation - Romans 10:16), and in...

    HERESY?

    I believe a person can initially be saved without knowing about the Trinity (or Jesus being God), but once that truth is revealed to them, they cannot deny it. For Jesus said, to whom much is given, much is required. Jesus said, "if ye believe not that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins."...

    HERESY?

    Jesus had power as God during His earthly ministry: 1. Jesus said He has power to raise the dead to life just as the Father had power to raise the dead (John 5:21). 2. Hebrews 1:3 talks about how Christ held all things together by the word of His power when He purged us of our sins. 3. Jesus...

    HERESY?

    101. Jesus chooses the elect - John 15:16. Jesus is God - I Thess. 2:13, I Cor. 1:27 102. Men are Jesus' disciples - John 13:35, John 15:8. Jesus is God - Isaiah 8:16 103. Jesus' voice is the sound of many waters - Revelation 1:15. Jesus is Almighty God - Ezekiel 43:2. 104. Jesus' feet are like...

    HERESY?

    51. Jesus is OMNIPRESENT - Matthew 18:20, Matthew 28:20 52. Jesus' body fills all (is omnipresent) - Ephesians 1:23 53. Jesus knows the hearts of men - Revelation 2:23 54. Jesus dwells in the hearts - Ephesians 3:17 55. And "liveth" in the believers - Galatians 2:20 56. Jesus knows the thoughts...

    HERESY?

    160 Reasons Jesus Christ is Almighty God By Thomas Golda 1. Jesus IS the visible image of the Invisible God - Colossians 1:15, II Corinthians 4:4...to see Jesus is to see the Invisible God - Mankind was created IN the image of God - Genesis 1:26...Jesus IS the image of God. To see Jesus is...

    HERESY?

    Again, lets say John 17:3 is referring to the Father as the only true God. I will again admit that such is a possibility. But Jesus said He is one with the Father and 1 Timothy 3:16 says God was manifest in the flesh. The beginning of the gospel of John says: The Word WAS GOD and the Word was...

    HERESY?

    What do you do with 1 John 5:7? What do you do with the beginning of the gospel of John that says that the Word WAS God and the Word was WITH God (John 1:1)? What do you do with Genesis 1:26 where God says, let US make man in OUR image, and OUR likeness? What do you do with Revelation 1:8 that...

    HERESY?

    The Trinity The Bible teaches that there is one God (Deuteronomy 6:4) (1 Timothy 2:5) (Isaiah 45:5). Yet, the Bible also teaches that there are distinctions within the Godhead or that there is a plural nature to God. Here are a couple of quick points: #1. The word Elohim (אֱלֹהִ֔ים) is both...

    Is believing/faith a work ?

    You attempt to divert away from the truth I mentioned in 2 Thessalonians 2:10. It says that the reason why those who perish are perishing is because they received not the love of the truth that they MIGHT be saved. That’s what the verse basically says. You need to first deal with the truth of...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Well, for me: One of the clearest examples in the Bible of having a belief without works (for initial salvation) is in Romans 4:9-12 with it pointing back to Romans 4:3. Romans 4:9-12 “Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    You are not fooling anyone who is truly seeking to do the right thing. Jesus said everyone who does not do what He says is like a fool who built his house upon the sand and when a storm came, great was the fall of that house (Matthew 7:26-27). Jesus warned against how looking upon a woman in...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    The Bible teaches that there are those who are twice dead plucked up by the roots (See: Jude 1:12). Obviously a person who is dead twice was once dead spiritually before they came to Christ and they died again spiritually a second time by their turning God’s grace into a license for immorality...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    You can also try to put up a smokescreen that a believer is a changed person beyond their control all you like, but it does not undo the problem of your view that a believer does not lose salvation when they sin and or at the very least endanger their salvation status with God. The moment you...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Speaking of pride: Paul says in 1 Timothy 6:3-4 “If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing,…” James 4:6 says, “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    The problem is that you are not dealing the Scriptural points in my long winded post that proves that what I say is true according to Scripture. You can espouse all the beliefs and opinions you like, but what I said with Scripture stands. I explained your misunderstanding on Galatians 3:3...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Remember, it only took one sin (or disobedience to one of God’s commands) for Adam and Eve to fall and die spiritually. The devil lied to Eve and said she would not die if she basically disobeyed this command. This same lie is being perpetuated today by the devil in that believers think that...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    But again… this is just turning God’s grace into a license to sin because you don’t believe sin separates a believer from God. For in your belief: 1 John 1:9 and 1 John 1:7 cannot apply to a believer’s life. You don’t actually believe in confessing sin to be forgiven of sin (1 John 1:9). You...
