    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    Sister, I have no way to either verify or discount all the particulars, but just want to say I wouldn't be surprised if something like this was the case with Paula White (and she has talked some about being abused as a child). I wondered the same about Charlie Kirk's widow as well. It is not...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    The "Israel of God", which includes grafted-in, believing Gentiles.........all those whom God has foreknown.....this is not talking about all "Israel after the flesh".

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    Jesus said what does it profit a person to gain the whole world but lose their own soul. That is exactly what Satan tempted Him with in the wilderness if He would bow down and worship him. And this is also what many so-called elites do today and why. Luciferians, Cult of Baal, etc. They...

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    We're to consider that Jesus came through faithful believing Jews (called, chosen and faithful) - as well as some faithful believing Gentiles in His lineage (Ruth)......not so much from those who were Jews/Hebrews in name only. He is a Jew who is one inwardly. Nevertheless the whole nation of...

    If Christian Universalism is true, what's the point in evangelism?

    The Holy Spirit causing any person or devil to confess who Christ is, does not necessarily mean they are saved. Just like the Holy Spirit forcing demons out of hiding and into the light (manifesting) doesn't mean they are saved. And only the Holy Spirit can lead us into all truth....the carnal...

    If Christian Universalism is true, what's the point in evangelism?

    Regarding Phil 2:9 verse......we need to "hear what the Spirit is saying", because God's word is a spiritual word. Even the demons confess who Jesus is but they are not saved.........even the devil believes and trembles but he is not saved. And they do also bend the knee at the name of Jesus ...

    If Christian Universalism is true, what's the point in evangelism?

    The heart is deceitfully wicked, that's why.. And just look around and see that humans do not always seek to better their situation....many are self-destructive. It takes an act of God's grace and power to convert a soul.

    Death Penalty: All in Favor? All Opposed?

    The gospel is never irrelevant. And it has spin-off benefits in the world. Men will do what men will do, but we are to follow Jesus, His example and His word. And He did not demonstrate or instruct His church to go and change the world, but to go and make disciples. We are not called to...

    Trump and Politics

    1Jo 2:22-24 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have...

    Death Penalty: All in Favor? All Opposed?

    Well, to be clear, I regard that as being God's wisdom concerning governments, but not the church. The church should not be embroiled in and invested in worldly government/political affairs.. We are only instructed to pray for those in authority (for their salvation and I believe also that...

    Death Penalty: All in Favor? All Opposed?

    Here are some scriptures to consider on this topic: 1Ti 1:8-10 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers...

    Do you guys support Trump's war on Iran right now?

    It was a cheeky question to ask on camera and Trump gave them a cheeky answer. And just to say the Japanese might not be racist so much as wanting to protect their race and tiny country from being hijacked and overtaken by other races/cultures....I would consider that to be a legitimate concern...

    Do you guys support Trump's war on Iran right now?

    The video isn't showing up for me for some reason. But sister, I just want to say in general........governments are God's arm of justice/judgment....as long as they are not acting unjustly. We can't expect governments of this world to behave like the church...otherwise there would be anarchy...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    Christ in us the hope of glory. "Investing" the measure we have received (parable of the talents). We're not supposed to dig out the foundation. But we do need to die to ourselves. The way up is down....I agree in the sense of humility and growing recognition of what we are without Jesus and...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    Trying to justify one's toxicity and bad behaviour............is not Godly sorrow that leads to repentance. No you don't know how I think. You keep forgetting, or conveniently pretend to. What you are saying is not how I think, at all. I agree with what you are saying about Bethel and...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    I just wonder what people are supposed to think when the tenor of someone's posts belies the holiness they purport to preach.

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    Except that Amigo wasn't misunderstanding him, as was clear from his reply. Yes we do need to have fear of the Lord, and the church in general seems to have too little of that these days......but also let's not forget that the Lord is also merciful and kind and gracious....He knows that...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    "should SEEM to come short of it" I completely agree we should not assume we are walking in what has been imputed to us........we need to know and learn and honestly acknowledge the difference and seek to enter into and walk in all that has been so graciously imputed to us. The Israelites...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    I believe it is imputed to the believer at any stage along the way as long as we are following Christ.......we are not under the curse of the Law. My understanding from scripture is whether one fails to hold fast their confidence to the end, and grows weary to the point of giving up, or losing...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    I agree, subject to the Lord........as long as we don't throw the baby out with the bathwater as some do here.
