CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST... The "church" that exists in the world today (all approx. 2,000 different denominations/sects) is apostate and it became apostate shortly after Paul's death. The bread that the apostate church teaches is very deceiving and is full of "hidden" leaven. It has...

Dear VictoryinJesus, You quoted: But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away with. When I was a child, I spoke as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now, we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in...

CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST... The Doctrine of Free Will is the leading cause of a called out believer's spiritual death. That doctrine has turned the confession of faith into a "work" of man. With that doctrine, the church blames those who are not saved on their own lack of making the...

Dear MatthewG, Yes, it is a lot to consider since what I have presented is contrary to what orthodox Christianity teaches. But there is a reason why this is the case: Acts 20:29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also...

Dear VictoryinJesus, I couldn't fit your final question into my last post so I will answer it here. You asked: Why let Satan loose for a little season...if not for The scripture you are referring to is here: Rev 20:7-10 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of...

Dear VictoryinJesus, I will try to be more specific on my points. You said: You say they (the Foolish Virgins) are not the “wise” Christ will confound. No, the Foolish Virgins represent the "wise" who Christ will confound. They also represent the "many" who have been called into the church...

CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST... Paul's conversion is the pattern for how Christ saves us: 1Tim 1:16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting...

Dear MatthewG, I read through all the recent posts and wanted to make a comment on universal salvation. The purpose of God's creation is to create new children. It is not an experiment with God and it is not based on "hope" that some of mankind will repent and accept Jesus as Lord. The...

Dear VictoryinJesus, I just wanted to respond to a couple of your comments. Concerning the "wise" and the "foolish" virgins, the "wise virgins" are spiritually wise and the "foolish virgins" are spiritually foolish. The parable is not talking about the "wise" of this world who Christ will...

Dear MatthewG, The "ends of the ages" come upon an Elect believer when they are "converted". 1Cor 10:11 Now all these things happened to them as types, and have been written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. The literal "ends of the ages" occur at the end of the...

Dear VictoryinJesus, I liked most of your comments in the first paragraph. In the next paragraph, you said: The verse of “Wake up, you who sleepest, wake up unto righteousness and Christ will give you Light.” …I still think the ten virgins, all who slept… they must have heard of His coming...

Dear VictoryinJesus, You said: If I understand correctly you are suggesting the Samaritan woman is just as much a parable as the ten virgin parable? I am saying that the woman at the well is a "type". A type is an actual event that teaches spiritual truths. Like all of scripture which is...

Dear VictoryinJesus, I'm not sure what you mean when you ask "How are we certain He didn’t give unto the woman Living Water when the Spirit was poured out on all flesh?" The story is a "type" which teaches spiritual truths. The story does not teach whether or not the woman was eventually...

Dear VictoryinJesus, The Word of God is written in the spiritual language of Christ. To understand scripture, a person must understand it "spiritually". Christ said to understand the spiritual way, one must have "ears that can hear" and "eyes that can see". Paul made this statement: 1Cor...

Dear Ronald Nolette, The Early Rain is the earnest of the Holy Spirit. It is a "down payment". It is also called the Holy Spirit of Promise: Eph 1:13-14 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were...

The true church consists of only Elect believers who have received BOTH the Early and Latter Rain and have been converted. The true church still exists today just as it has existed since the Apostles were converted. Mat 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen. Both the Jewish Nation and...

Dear Davy, There are no scriptures which say that some of the church will not be affected by the apostasy after it comes into the church. The examples I presented in my last post conclusively show that the apostasy spares none of the flock just as Paul stated. All Early Rain believers (the...

Dear Davy, You are denying the truth of what Paul said: Acts 20:29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 31 Therefore...

Dear Weber_Home, Yes, Phil 2:13 is true for everyone. Mankind does not have a free will. Only God the Father has a free will - and from His free will ability, He directs and controls all things to be in accordance with His will. I became a Christian from my youth and studied scripture a great...

Dear Ronald Nolette, You are referring to verses which apply to a believer who has received both the Early and Latter Rains. Both Rains are required to be "converted" and eternally saved. Believers in the church who have only been given the Early Rain (called out believers) will remain...
