    The logic of Trinitarians and Jehovah's Witnesses...

    Jhn 1:11, He came unto his own, and his own received him not. means that Jesus came to the Jewish people, who were His own people. Jesus claimed to be the voice in the burning bush in John 8:58. The scribes and Pharisees understood His claim to be the God of the Old Testament. They picked up...

    The logic of Trinitarians and Jehovah's Witnesses...

    Wow; just wow. I still say God didn't force them to eat their sons and daughters. They did so because of their moral depravity. Make the tree good and its fruit good or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad. That's all I have to say to you.

    The Ten Commandments—What happened?

    Harden your heart to the truth if you wish; it's on you. It was actually given to Abraham, before Sinai. As with the sabbath day law, Jesus brought it home to the spirit of rest as opposed to a singular day of the week in which you rest: Mat 11:28, Come unto me, all ye that labour and are...

    The Ten Commandments—What happened?

    Jesus came as High Priest according to the order of Melchizedec...for He was not a Levite but was of the tribe of Judah and therefore had no right to the Levitical priesthood. With a change in priesthood came a change also of the law (Hebrews 7:12); For Jesus came not after a carnal...

    That's right. Don't blaspheme God.

    There are born again, non-Catholics (Protestants).

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    I have indeed stated a proof supporting my position. Revelation 22:18-19 shows the truth that modern translations do take away from the word of God while the kjv does not add to it in keeping in certain statements. For the punishment for adding is very visible and if the kjv translators had...

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    Jhn 3:1, There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: Jhn 3:2, The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jhn 3:3, Jesus answered...

    The Sermon on the Mount.

    Reading the Sermon on the Mount ought to give you the understanding that you are a spiritual leper. The solution to the problem is found in chapter 8: verses 1-4.

    The Sermon on the Mount.

    Mat 7:1, Judge not, that ye be not judged. Mat 7:2, For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. Mat 7:3, And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye...

    The Sermon on the Mount.

    Mat 6:1, Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven. Mat 6:2, Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may...

    The Sermon on the Mount.

    Mat 5:1, And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: Mat 5:2, And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, Mat 5:3, Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Mat 5:4, Blessed are they that mourn: for...

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    Fact is, it belongs in there. It is just another proof that Jesus is the Father. I'm afraid that modern translations have been watered-down and they also take away from God's word...so they are guilty of the sin that is spoken of in Revelation 22:18-19...along with all those who conclude that...

    The Ten Commandments—What happened?

    John is the one who wrote John 5:18; and he was not relating what the Pharisees thought but made it his own statement that Jesus "brake the sabbath". And yes, he was in fact speaking under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost when he wrote this.

    Jesus isn't Catholic

    Yes, there are born again catholics; however I would venture to say that those who are born again in the catholic church do not subscribe to certain catholic doctrines (such as Mary being co-mediatrix or co-redeemer, or praying to saints) because if they have the Spirit of truth, He will guide...

    Jesus isn't Catholic

    In Protestantism it is believer's baptism that provides absolute assurance. You do not have to take a theology test concerning the Catechism of the Catholic Church in order to know that you have been sealed by the Holy Spirit. For many, it is a matter of becoming hungry for the word and taking...

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    I'm interested in what the Hebrew word was that they translated as "hands" when it should have been translated "foreskins". What kind of misunderstanding might have led them to mistranslate it as "hands" when it should have been translated as "foreskins"?

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    My kjv does not have that in it...for as long as I have read the kjv, it has mentioned that David paid 200 foreskins as a dowry for Michal...nothing about hands. Except, it says that Saul sought to make David fall by the hands of the Philistines. That is a far cry from saying that David paid...

    I'm unaware of what you are talking about.

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    So, in order for you to be morally upright in character...I think that YHWH must require you to sacrifice your life for all of humankind and take the penalty for all sin upon your own shoulders. Otherwise your character is a "ghastly human contrivance unworthy of credibility by the best human...
