    Marry in Registry Office

    Certainly, there is no "rule" concerning witnesses. But hopefully, you can discern the value of them and why there was celebration (witnesses) to a marriage - into God's family. Witnesses expose the evil that secrecy would bring. Yes, the master to which you voluntarily submitted requires that...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    Scriptures, pls. It refers to a pivotal event right before the Great Flood, where the "sons of God" saw that the "daughters of men" were beautiful and took any women they wanted as their wives. They chose them, and then they mated with them.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    "Marriage" implies mutual agreement, whereas, "they took them wives of all which they chose" does not. It is the bene elohim.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    That's what happened. Those angels "left their first estate" (oiketerion, habitation, dwelling) i.e. they were disobedient; they rebelled. Rather, they took them wives of all which they chose.

    If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?

    Indeed, I think we have! The guy has posted 423 times since joining just 25 days ago. That's a whopping 17 posts per day, every single day. I smell a rat.

    ...and right on time, here comes the gaslighting... In case you missed it a dozen posts above, here it is again. No, you "resorted to commentary" when you foisted your beard, one Grant C. Richison, a Dallas cemetaryseminary graduate, back at post #146. It's also clear that pasting up your...

    We're not here for your entertainment. You're the one making the claim. Either post relevant scripture or go back to your monologue.

    If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?

    Hear Paul: 1 Timothy 1:18-20, "This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare; Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck: Of whom is...

    Marry in Registry Office

    The Holy Bible has this to say about the value of witnesses: This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established. (2 Cor. 13:1) and And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly...

    If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?

    I stated that because the OP has lost the plot, behaving as if he is not cognizant of the above obvious fact. And without a return to the gist, he risks derailing the thread entirely. LIkewise, a believer "who permanently rejects Christ" "has no biblical right to claim he is one of Christ's...

    Never have. The "problems" are not mine. "sealing" ≠ "salvation" Godspeed, my friend.

    If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?

    There aren't any. No, your statement does not equate with my statement. That is the key, hence "tick, tick, tick..." and overcoming over time. and He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. (Rev. 2:11)...

    If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?

    Please list the verses where Paul says a sealed believer is guaranteed salvation. In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise (Eph. 1:13) [and for the next 50...

    Marry in Registry Office

    A pastor (or a Registry Office) doesn't join the partners. Even the partners don't join each other. God joins them. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. (Mark 10:9) So any marriage that is not based in God is not a Lawful marriage. Bringing the state/corporation...

    If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?

    You are mischaracterizing the issue. Rather, the relevant question might be this: Is a man, a believer at the time of his sealing, inevitably guaranteed eternal life at the time of his judgement?

    If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?

    Spot on. And it's so easy to be misconstrued within this limited medium. While fear is an unclean spirit (2 Tim. 1:7), the Lord's mercies are new every morning (Lam 3:22). It's one day at a time - all the way to the harvest.

    ...because you are fearfully and wonderfully made, created in God's image and most precious to him. Eternal destinies are on the line. And as such, you are the #1 target of the destroyer and thus are in need of a Saviour who promises to fight alongside you in your battles as an overcomer. Satan...

    ...again, the seal is an "earnest" - the HS 'down payment' on our inheritance. In the meantime, we must not default on our end of the deal. ... the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession (Eph. 1:4). FWIW, the Old Testament relates occasions in which God's...

    If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?

    As ScottA was intimating, that line of questioning is a non sequitur. BTW, the "tick, tick, tick..." simply represents the earthly timeline that must yet play out before one goes on to meet his Maker. Yet we are warned to not grieve the HS precisely because there will be consequences... What...

    Coming to a City or Town Near You....

    Reminds me of: These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father...
