    Where did Christian Universalism come from? - New or old?

    It is truly with sadness for your soul that I say this, I knew you weren't kidding. I know you truly believe that way. For the preaching of the cross is ....foolishness;...unto us which are saved it is the power of God. You can keep believing the cross is foolishness and I'll keep believing it...

    The changing perception of hell. - How do you define it?

    MAT 22:14 For many are called/kletos, but few are chosen/eklektos. 2822 kletos: invited ie appointed, or (spec) a saint 1588 eklektos: select; by impl. favorite IOW For many are saints, but few are favorites 2TI 2:20 In a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but...

    Where did Christian Universalism come from? - New or old?

    Are you kidding? That's HOW everyone qualified. It was because of what Jesus did, not what you did. When you received Jesus by faith it was His death on that cross which forgave your sins along with everyone else's. Jesus paid the price for all. You accepting Him......WHEN you first...

    The changing perception of hell. - How do you define it?

    Question, what standard is there besides??? ; Phil 3 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God IN CHRISTJesus. Eph 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the...

    You either have the spirit or you don't

    Everlasting fire simply means you can't put it out until it burns up what needs to be destroyed. JUD 1:7 just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise acted immorally and indulged in unnatural lust, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire. Would...

    Where did Christian Universalism come from? - New or old?

    If anyone has a god of their own making it would have been the church of ROME. Killing 3,000 to 3,500 Christians who didn't agree theologically with them. They just couldn't catch Luther, or they would have murdered him too. All that bloodshed over DOCTRINE hmmm. And it was also responsible...

    You either have the spirit or you don't

    Did he get his DOCTORATE degree FROM JESUS? NOT! That should be your first clue to not trust someone today. Getting a degree from some religious spiritual cemetary just wasn't the way Jesus did it. But those who were "approved of men" had the same standard to bow down to as you've just...

    Is the Logos meaningful, or meaningless? - Depends on your view of Logos.

    post 86 post 88 Are you sure? I don't think 'most Christians' even know what you just said. When you say "preincarnate Jesus became flesh", I do/don't agree, depending on just what that vocabulary means to you. If you would have said "preincarnate LOGOS" I would agree. But preincarnate...

    You either have the spirit or you don't

    And if it "AIN'T" His will, for you to believe, then you don't have 'the will to believe'; EPH 2:8* For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God -- JOH 1:13* Which were born [again or from above], not of blood, nor of the will of...

    You either have the spirit or you don't

    So glad to hear you believe in prayer, as do I. But my prayer is BIBLICAL. I curious as to how it lines up with your praying? Because this prayer indicates that ALL MEN (mankind) will "get in" "in due time". 1TI 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers...

    Who ARE "the prophets" in Ephesians 2:20?

    I believe they are different spirits. And I believe that Eph 4 is talking about the "one body" of Christ. A body which scripture says is 'many members'. ROM 12:4 For as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same function, 5 so we, though many, are one body in...

    Who ARE "the prophets" in Ephesians 2:20?

    What did they just say? "becomes a question for the SPIRITUAL JUDGMENT of THE READER." IOW You are going to have to use YOUR SPIRITUAL JUDGMENT!!!! Because these FundaMENTAL Greek Scholar translators have admitted they don't even know the correct answer for when "spirit" "Spirit" "holy...

    Did God the Father or Jesus create angels

    I disagree. But I think the oldest one still works as good as when the church of Rome invented it. And we sorta hold hands concerning that false doctrine of ETERNAL HELL. I'm sorry, but I was asked by a church God called us back to (after calling us out 8 years before) to mentor a former...

    Who ARE "the prophets" in Ephesians 2:20?

    I've quoted this reference before. Just read the comments from the SCHOLARS who wrote this GREEK INTERLINEAR ENGLISH NEW TESTAMENT. Pay special attention to the blue text for the answer to your question. ZONDERVAN PUBLISHING CO. 1972 Based on STEVENS GREEK TEXT Introduction page iii 5...

    The changing perception of hell. - How do you define it?

    Unquenchable fire simply means you can't put it out until it finishes burning up what needs to be destroyed. JUD 1:7 just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise acted immorally and indulged in unnatural lust, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal...

    The changing perception of hell. - How do you define it?

    You never hear the bible thumpers talk about the lying pen of the modern scribes. If only they knew about the "love of money" and how there are a lot of FALSE PROFITS in the bible translation BUSINESS.

    The changing perception of hell. - How do you define it?

    The URL below lists how many times the word HELL is in many translations. The translation with the most HELL in it is the KJV with 54, NKJV is second with 31 times. Most poorly translated newer versions have the word HELL in them 11-13 times. 20 bibles are listed that don't have the word...

    Who ARE "the prophets" in Ephesians 2:20?

    IMO "the Spirit" all 4 times above is talking about the born again spirit of Christ in us. I think the only time the Spirit of God is referred to is the "HE" in verse 27. The Spirit of God doesn't have to intercede to us for God, because HE...the Spirit of God...IS GOD. The KJV, RSV, NIV all...

    Did God the Father or Jesus create angels

    Yes yes yes, Very pagan stuff you've posted. Want to know why? 2CO 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their...

    Can a Believer Loose Their Salvation?

    My answer is NO! and YES! :r.u.n: NO!. You can't LOOSE a salvation you could never be good enough to EARN in the first place. And you can't MAINTAIN a salvation that you could never OBTAIN to begin with. And that (first) salvation is the salvation of your spirit being justified. That is...
