    What are Your Feelings on Tithes

    Be sure to genuflect and make the sign of the cross when you do it! God will be impressed! o_O

    The true "ABIDING" in Christ, vs the heretic.

    The Bible is full of promises, exhortations, and warnings. Promises emphasize God's work towards us, while exhortations and warnings are our responsibility towards God. The following word study is intended to stress the obligation of mankind in the salvation process. To limit this study to a...

    What are Your Feelings on Tithes

    You actually need Biblical sanction and not just some personal belief to change what God says about tithes and tithing. You are doing what Jesus condemned the Pharisees for, adding burdens that were never stated by God.

    The true "ABIDING" in Christ, vs the heretic.

    If Goat can become a Sheep, there is no reasonable logic that would say that a Sheep cannot become a Goat! You argue that when someone is Spiritually Born, that that nature cannot be changed... ever! Yet your logic neglects to be honest that you just said that how someone was "born" could not be...

    The true "ABIDING" in Christ, vs the heretic.

    Prove it! If you cannot answer a Biblical argument, then just admit you cannot defend your heresy!

    Pre-Destined Elect - simplified.

    Jesus said... "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." No one is exempt! Even after saying "Truly, truly," Jesus only meant those precisely one minute after they turn 30 years old? Where is the age? Where is the exception in the double emphasis...

    What are Your Feelings on Tithes

    Circumcision predates the Law... blessings were connected; what is a Christian to conclude? Abraham gave a tithe of the spoils of war... one single time; never to be repeated. A one-time event does not establish a perpetual obligation! If you want to use Abraham's tithe as a pattern, then...

    Which version of Fatalism do you impose upon Scripture? Early Gnostic, or Manicheanism?

    Except a man be born of WATER and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

    Nonsense! To suggest that if someone does not buy into heathen immersion that they are not in harmony with God's Word and "oppose Jesus" is an appeal to "logical consistency" and philosophy. It is an "assumption" that "harmony" cannot be found in any other way. Because it "works for you" and...

    Pre-Destined Elect - simplified.

    And God is no Respecter of persons. So are you consistent and say that infants are in Hell?

    Except a man be born of WATER and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

    We do not know the extant of the eunuch's reading in Isaiah, nor are we privy to everything that may have been said between Phillip and the eunuch. The Bible was not divided into chapters and verses as we have today. In Isaiah 52:15, we find these words, “So shall he sprinkle many nations; the...

    Except a man be born of WATER and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

    If you baptize a sinner, all you get is a wet sinner; if you baptize a saved Christian, you have a testimony. Acts 2:38 speaks of being baptized "for" "because" "in reference to" the remission of sins.

    Pre-Destined Elect - simplified.

    God is no Respecter of persons. If there is original Sin, then no one is born fit for heaven... Jesus said so! "Ye must be Born-Again"!

    Pre-Destined Elect - simplified.

    It is the Fatalist that must prove how God is not a "Respecter of persons" if all infants are saved. the argument is that God is no Respecter of persons, and does not factor in faith, obedience, or any other factor in His Elective "decree." Paul said, "There is no respect of persons with God."...

    All those babies burning and being tortured in Hell as we speak!

    Pre-Destined Elect - simplified.

    Predestination simplified: He loves me, He loves me not! The fickle finger of Fate will reside with the last petal of the TULIP!

    The true "ABIDING" in Christ, vs the heretic.

    Then no one can ever be "Born Again" because we were all born in sin and are children of the devil. "Each Birth is permanent, as all birth is permanent." Thanks, once again.... for proving too much!

    Spotting the Heretic

    Just like a Jehovah's Witness feels vindicated when someone slams the door in their face! :p
