That is what we have already discussed several times. The Bible clearly reveals the answer to this. The apostles did not render "Jehovah" in the Greek text, they used Kyrios and applied Joel 2:32 directly to Jesus Christ. That is the revelation of the Holy Spirit, not an alteration by man. You...

The problem with what you’re saying is that you’re treating translations as if they altered God’s identity, when in reality the New Testament itself, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, reveals how Joel 2:32 is fulfilled. Peter quotes that verse in ~ Acts 2:21, and he didn’t say “Yahweh,”...

Once again, your argumentation conflates truth and supposition. The Scriptures do not limit God’s wrath to one temporal event in history, such as the fall of Jerusalem. Wrath against sin is present reality and the final judgment is the future fulfillment of God’s wrath. “The wrath of God is...

Peter didn’t quote Joel to teach that salvation was only for that generation. He quoted it to announce that the salvation of God through Christ had come. “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved” ~Acts 2:21 is not time-bound. Paul quotes the very same verse in ~Romans 10:13...

That’s not what Scripture teaches. You’re twisting the text to fit a manmade theory. The New Testament quotes Joel 2:32 correctly when it says, “Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” ~ Acts 2:21, and ~Romans 10:13. The Greek word used there is Kyrios, which the apostles applied...

God loves you, but He is also holy. His love does not cancel His justice; His justice was satisfied at the cross. Only those who believe and turn to Christ can say with confidence, “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1).

What you said about seeking the Father first (Matthew 6: 33) is true, but Scripture also teaches we cannot come to the Father apart from knowing the Son as God. Jesus said plainly, “No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6). That’s not access through a messenger, but through the...

If you are teaching that the Trinity is not true then you are an example of what the OP is about. When a person rejects the triune nature of God, they are rejecting the very nature of how God reveals Himself in His Word. The Trinity is not a contradiction, it’s divine truth. The Father is God...

You’re not “sharing Scripture,” you’re mutilating it to preach a gospel without wrath. You quote verses on peace but avoid the ones on wrath. God’s wrath didn’t go away, in fact, Romans 1: 18 says it is being revealed in the present tense against all ungodliness. You are declaring peace where...

MatthewG, you are not preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ, you are preaching the gospel of MatthewG. Once again you have revised Scripture to suit what you want it to say, not what God really said. We don't have the liberty to redefine truth according to the Bible. Paul said in Galatians 1...

You don’t have to believe anything I say, but you must believe what the bible says. That’s your decision, to deny what is said from Scripture does not make it not to be true. You can claim to believe in the resurrected Lord Yeshua, but the question is, do you believe what He actually said? “Why...

You have several misconceptions in your reply that do not square with Scripture. First, the belief that the true church became apostate following the death of Paul is unbiblical. Jesus Christ stated that, “I will build My church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it” (Matthew...

See, that’s the thing, we’re not trying to break anyone’s will, we’re trying to reach your soul. There’s a big difference. If all we wanted was control, we’d stay quiet and let everyone believe what they want. But love won’t do that. Love warns. Love speaks up when the bridge is out ahead...

You are always trying to rewrite God’s Word and then call it faith. The Bible is not clay for us to mold. It is rock for us to stand on. Jesus did not leave His coming back up for debate. He said, “Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory” (Mark 13:26)...

You said it so well...Jesus never taught comfort without conviction. He called for repentance because He loves us too much to let us continue in sin. I loved how you pointed it back to His own words in both Matthew and John. The Gospel really is both warning and rescue, wrath and grace, justice...

Yes, that’s right. The Bible says there will be no more death of any kind in the new heaven and new earth. This includes animal death as well. Revelation 21: 4: “There shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain.” Death entered the world because of...

Yes, God loves you. But His love calls you to repent, not remain in sin. The cross proves God’s love. Repentance proves you’ve received it.

I’m glad you were honest about what you’re struggling with in your faith. The God of the Bible is big enough to hear our questions and concerns, and I want to assure you that He hears yours. But I also want to invite you to examine Scripture again, with fresh eyes, to see what the Bible really...

It’s a lie, a dangerous lie, and a lot of preachers are preaching it. This false gospel is sweet-talk and happy-talk. It tells you about God’s love but never His wrath. It preaches blessings but never judgment or repentance. Well, friend, that’s not the whole Gospel. It can’t be. Take away...

Paul was using the biblical figure of speech for physical death when he said that some had “fallen asleep.” He did not mean they had died spiritually or gone into some coma of the soul. The body “sleeps,” but the soul of the believer is right away with the Lord. Paul stated it so plainly in 2...
