isn't that interesting!

The Difference between RIGHEOUSNESS and HOLINESS The Hebrews use couplets....like seeing and hearing. It is used for emphasis. One can hear (active) the Gospel and see it in their understanding. It is synonymous. However, there is also a converse application, one can listen but not hear, one...

I see it is not possible to have a conversation with you Matthew. Why? because the above reply to any who vary in view is your default position.....and what can one do with a child who refuses to walk yet has the opinion of himself as a runner?

Is God sending people straight to hell when they die, today? or does he take them on a sight seeing tour beforehand?

Is it possible not to sin anymore? Lack of trust in the trustworthy births all manner of rebellion/ concupiscence

Where the (we) place the coma is informed by our view of the state of the dead. Placing it after 'today,' is consistent with the context and the rest of scripture. Placing it before ', today' supports the introduced pagan view of the immortality of the soul and creates an inconsistency with...

The problem is our dogged focus on ourselves Nancy. One can see from the above text that Paul had one focus, it was Jesus. How we see him matters and doctrine determines how we see him. If we are not seeing Jesus as an intimate and cognitive reality which consumes our reality, we have a dim...

Where was Adam when the serpent was talking with Eve? Wallmart, getting flip flops?......or was he scoffing the watermelon all on his own?

How is it supposed that Jesus is the destroyer when he plainly identifies the devil who is the one that destroys? How is it supposed that Jesus is the accuser when he is the one who freely forgives 'even while we were dead in our sins' Ephesians 2:5 Any court room session requires an accuser...

Yes, that's what I'm saying regarding fearing the Devil. He is the accuser. God does not accuse. Consider the following verses: Zechariah 3:1-5 3 Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan[a]standing at his right side to accuse him. 2 The Lordsaid...

What do you think I'm saying in my post #429 Lizbeth?
