    Should Christian parents trust their children’s education to public schools?

    Only if they oversee what their children are being taught and show them with Scripture the errors. It takes involvement and loving ones children. I was fortunate to send my three sons to Christian school thru 12th grade. But many parents do nto have the finances to do so. So they should be...

    (ministry of death) Thoughts on these verses?

    Bestr way I heard it preached. the law was never designed to save a soul. Paul showed that the law makes sin even more sinful. No, the law was given to drive Israel to Jesus and gentiles who think living a religious life will save them to convinct them they can never be saved by adherence to...

    The Word Of God Fulfilled

    Pride is what keeps us all from experiencing all that the Lord desires! People have to add "what they think", or something they feel they have discovered "in between the lines" or a secret message that took deep digging to find. As long asd believers are mortal we will experience this mess...

    Purgatory True of False

    So close yet so far! Yes we do experience temporal consequences for our sins. that means in the here and now and not after death in some place of temporary torment. It is the sin itself and not god that "punishes" us in the here and now! The allegorized a passage from Maccabees and then...

    Who meets with Abraham & Melchizedek?

    Off the top of my head, the new king appointed after the death of the old king. In all probability one of his sons.

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Well Scripture clearly teaches eternal security, as is written, but as is translated- many have used teh translations to promote one can lose their salvation. But I would like to see this promotion of simon magus. He is only mentioned once in Scripture and roundly rebuked by Peter. I would...

    The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !

    We are through then. You persist in your lies about me so I decide to end this. Interesting as jefferson was not a believer and rejected the words of Christ in the gospels! I hope you never call a bible as faulty then, for you will prove yourself the hyporcrite you accuse me of being...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    But to grant you the benefit of the doubt and to assume you have not been well studied in the Scriptures let me remind you of something: 1 Peter 1:7 King James Version 7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Now go and look at WHO this was written to and why! So you believe disobedience is cause for losing salvation. Then you believe that Jesus did not die for all your sins and paid the price for all your sins.Just the sins before you got saved? I do not know what you believe. But if you take...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Well you said ALL Scripture is for doctrine- I just brought up onje part of Scripture. You should jump for joy to obey it seeing as you imply that all scripture is equally applicable.

    Neiother am I! That is just you jumping to false conclusions based on your own presumptiousness instead of asking me and discovering what I think!

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Well you can think what you wish, I will accept what is written as written without people adding their thoughts. That has been the bane of Christianity down through the centuries- people adding their own thoughts and before long, they become part of the narrative.

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Well I went back and looked up core beliefs of gnosticism- eternal security is not one of them. salvation through ascending through the levels of "gnosis" is. I would like to see your reference for gnostics and eternal security, as is spelled out in Scripture.

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Now go and learn exactly what jesus said. believeth is the present active participle--which because it is in the present believes is rendered believed! If Jesus meant that one has to keep on believing over and over and over again He would have inspired a different construct. this construct...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Show a verse that says He can and then we can for further. and you ad- hominem not withstanding- Jesus said I give them eternal life (present) and they shall NEVER perish. If you could take yourself out of jesus hand, you would pluck yourself . Or are you going to not pick because it says...
