    Is Jesus the Saviour of the whole World?

    When you are ready to listen to the video, or look at the summary in post #2...and comment intelligently and sincerely on that...using the bible... let me know. :)

    Is Jesus the Saviour of the whole World?

    You are not seeing the context of who Jesus is addressing. Among God's people all who don't believe in Jesus are condemned...and that was directed at the Jews...and to Nicodemus specifically. Jesus came to the lost sheep of Israel. Likewise there is a LOT of unbelief among Christians...which...

    Is Jesus the Saviour of the whole World?

    This is about behaviour...ungodly and unrighteous behaviour. It is about attributes ...not beliefs or opinions of men. Many believers will be rejected so they are not in the exclusive salvation of the saints. In posting scriptures that repeat what I say...are you sure you understand your own...

    Is Jesus the Saviour of the whole World?

    Since when is not knowing someone mean you are rejecting them? Do you know who plays for the Montreal Canadiens? If not, is it because you reject them? You need to read the bible narrative without the indoctrination and see that God judges by OUR BEHAVIOUR not our religious beliefs. The...

    Is Jesus the Saviour of the whole World?

    I don't think you are looking at this in a balanced way. Who says that people who are not Christians are rejecting Jesus? I listened recently to Rob Reiner and his take on Christian nationalism. His take is that the political movement in the name of Jesus goes against the teachings of Jesus. I...

    Is Jesus the Saviour of the whole World?

    Do you think one can obey the Lord without knowing they are doing so? As in...When did we see you and serve you? Inasmuch as you did it to the least of these My brethren... (Matt 25 sheep and goats judgment)

    Is Jesus the Saviour of the whole World?

    Here is an AI take on my latest podcast episode listed below with timestamps... The video explores the question of whether Jesus is the savior of the whole world, arguing against both extreme fundamentalist and universalist views by proposing that God's ways incorporate both exclusive and...

    Is Jesus the Saviour of the whole World?

    As humans, we seem to find a proper balance to be something that escapes us, so often, preferring a more radical and simplistic view to one that requires nuance and a deeper understanding of the matter. Is salvation inclusive or exclusive? What if it's both!

    What Church is Jesus Building?

    The church of God is a spiritual fellowship in one Body by the Spirit. The enemy will do everything in his power to stop God's people from coming together by the faith OF Christ and advancing into a spiritual maturity that overthrows his dominion over the world...and the churches. The church...

    What Church is Jesus Building?

    Can any man-instituted church claim to be the church that Jesus is building? Where is the church that is growing into the full stature of Christ? Join me as we take a deeper look at what it takes to come under the direct Headship of Christ and become the church that Jesus is building rather than...

    Spirit filled believer?

    Amen. Mostly people will either affirm or deny the gifts of the Spirit based on displaying outward things (like the easily faked tongues)...not an inward life that gives outward evidence. Why do you want outward miracles? God hides Himself...so that the miracles that happen in a spiritual...

    Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth (The Importance of Doctrine Part 2)

    God goes easy on the meek...but hard on the pretenders, who take away from truth and reality and turn what is meant to be life-giving into a dead religion.

    Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth (The Importance of Doctrine Part 2)

    The church is meant to be the pillar and support of the truth. If we can't embody the truth ourselves, we can support the truth wherever we see God working. All can at least minister to the saints...even if we are not walking at that level. That takes some understanding and wisdom. And...

    Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth (The Importance of Doctrine Part 2)

    In this part 2 of a series on the importance of doctrine and discerning (or rightly dividing the word of truth) what we read in the bible; whether we are correctly understanding the narrative or else accepting a deviation from the truth that appeals to our own sense of right and wrong. Is our...

    How Important is doctrine? Part 1

    Jesus came to show the way of holiness. The way of an intimate walk...a HIGHER walk in an overcoming grace according to God's power. Modern believers don't believe such things because they have no faith in God's power. What shows that modern religionists have lost the meaning of the gospel is...

    How Important is doctrine? Part 1

    People fully miss the context of Paul's letters. He was addressing problems among people he knew, using a short-hand of concepts that were never meant to be taken as a replacement of the fuller statement found in the Scriptures. "Works of the law" is Judaism. Paul preached a hold on Christ...

    How Important is doctrine? Part 1

    Abraham was righteous, Abel was righteous. Phinehas was righteous. In the New Testament...Cornelius was righteous Zachariah and Elizabeth were righteous etc etc etc What you are not getting is that Paul was using shorthand for people whom he knew and you are taking his statements out of...

    How Important is doctrine? Part 1

    It's one thing to have a bible and read it...and quite another to try understanding it. You are not understanding the righteousness attributed to Abraham and the righteousness attributed to God. God isn't Abraham...and Abraham isn't God. The righteousness level is not the same...not even close...
