Faith leads to hearing and responding to the gospel message about Jesus Christ. Belief in Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins makes us right with God. Through this acceptance we are sanctified to invite our temple to be filled with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit abides within us to lead...

The concept of nakedness being shameful is established elsewhere in the bible. And when we go back and look at Adam and Eve in light of those other verses I am certain a greater understanding can be had.

Truth is immutable and original, unbound by time. Some things may be factually true but only with a certain understanding. Anything which requires some other requisite understanding in order to be true, is not original truth. I'd bet that most everything considered true today requires a...

If you are able to fast that is also helpful. If only to increase your devotion to God by virtue of denying the flesh. 1 John 2:15-17 15Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father[d] is not in them. 16 For everything in the world—the lust of...

Yes, I consider it an admonishment. Like we are behaving as food motivated animals. Even if it is for spiritual food, why behave like dogs begging for every scrap.

The left doesn't need an excuse to start a war, excuses are for reasonable people.

I'm thinking it might have something to do with this proverb: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;" Perhaps someone is in a situation they need to leave a situation, and they need to be careful about the doctrines they have placed trust in when...

Absolutely. It isn't only the Jews, but everyone. There are many things in this world that stand in the way. Even Christians may attend Church but not know Jesus really.

It's a problem, we know we need to forgive but we can't force our hearts to feel forgiveness. If you were to wait for your feelings to agree, you would be waiting forever. But we should not be lead by our hearts, but by the Spirit of God. God gives us a heart of flesh to be amenable to the...

Well done, glad you reported it.

We do not know if someone is a wheat plant or a tare. That is one of the points of the parable, they look identical when immature. So they can not be separated prematurely. But when mature the weight of the grains of the wheat stalk cause it to dip low, while the tare stands proud. The fruit...

Muslims get away with a lot, and Satan's children cover for their own. You won't see many government officials or the news media opposing or exposing Muslims, even when they perform jihad in our back yards.

The community ends at the boundary of the property they own, and can not extend into infringing the rights of their neighbors to exercise their religion. Where local governments tend to over-reach. Their ability to enforce the law ends at excommunication. They would not be allowed to detain or...

The fourteenth amendment requires states to also recognize the rights of citizens. Because if only the federal government were required to recognize citizen rights that would be meaningless. Most people reside within a state. "No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the...

And rather that religion be a Christian church established by the king of england. Or by local leadership trying to establish Islamic government, it would not be allowed under the constitution.

Ezekiel 37:26 KJV "Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore." Peace with who, first and foremost peace with God. Romans 5:1 Multiply...

Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

What of the covenant in Jesus' blood per Matthew 26:28? Isn't that in affect now so that we can be forgiven of our sins?

How we want to be loved doesn't change as a result of becoming a believer. How and why we love others changes. Loving in a self sacrificing way, giving of ourselves without expecting something in return. This is the love of the believer, a love like God's love for us.

Jesus wasn't dead yet when he called out: "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" But even though you misunderstood my point, going of on a tangent about the afterlife.
