What makes you think it is wrong? Be advised that the cessation of miracles today does not preclude God's providential acts, either in conformity with natural law or outside of natural law.

That was my point. I do not think there is a level of faith below which or less than which is necessary for salvation. That is what sanctification is all about. Could you give a reference for God's testing our faith. you are talking about? Predominately Lutheran, I think.

You think what the US did in WWII was war crimes? Seriously? More to the point, you apparently think what Israel is doing constitutes war crimes but what Iran is doing does not. That's really sick.

I think perhaps you do not really understand the purpose of even the miracles that are given in the Bible. I don't think that purpose even exists now with the completion of God's word as we have it.

There is no land promise in the New Covenant. The New Covenant Israel has nothing whatsoever to do with any land on this earth.

That is almost blasphemy. It would be if you really understood what you just said there.

The Israel that God restores and protects and saves has not one thing to do with the current national Israel.

It is you who are hiding under Hamas' skirt. And that skirt is every bit as filthy as Hitler's . You are the one assigning blame to Israel because Hamas is hiding behind women and children as shields and using schools, hospitals, etc. as bunkers. They are cowards and you are condoning it. Shame!

Yeah He does. He says so in several passages. He says so in Acts 2:38; 22:16; Romans 6:1-7Galatians 3:27; Colossians 2:11-13 and elsewhere. I understand that He didn't use the word "occasion" specifically; however, what was said to be the results of baptism could not be interpretated to have...

So then you think God deliberately wanted us to fail. What a really sad view of God....end of story.

If He can do it any time, then He can do it for anyone. But that is not what He says. One who has been born again does indeed exhibit such fruits, but one who might exhibit such fruits may or may not be born again. I am not sure what writings of Peter, James and Paul you are referring to. How...

That may well be true. Still, none of God's moral, even as given in the OT was not set aside. Also, the law wasn't inadequate; rather it is we who are inadequate. Trust me, if you had kept the 'old' law perfectly, you would have been just fine. But you didn't and no one else, except Christ, has...

So says the non-Christian.

Baptism is not an indicator of being born again. It is the occasion, the time, in the sinners life when God forgives his sins and gives him the give of the Holy Spirit. Forgiveness of sins and receiving the gift of he Holy Spirit is being born again. That is what Colossians 2 says. That is in...

Given all you have said there, you can never know IF God has "made you Born Again". You may think it. But you can never know for sure. God says that being born again happens in baptism through faith in God, Read about being born again in Colossians 2: Col 2:11 In him also you were...

Any of those that says that the IDF is targeting children, are wrong. That is antisemitic propaganda. Are children being hurt and killed. Yes, but that does not mean they are being targeted More antisemitic propaganda. Maybe you should be attacking Hamas who are hiding behind those women and...

I don't think I was being cryptic. All of God's moral law was essentially repeated in one way or another throughout the NT. We have not been freed from keeping that law. Those of us who believe in God, in Jesus Christ, in the gospel, and I would add who have been baptized (Mark 16:16), have...

All those who have not believed and have been saved are under the law.

Aunty Jane, the church in the US today is following pretty closely how the church acted in Germany in the 1930s. They are "staying out of it". Pick up some of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's stuff and read about the German church and Hitler. Doing nothing is support to the devil's rulership. Today, in...

I do know the difference. First, who says that Israel is committing mass murder of women and children and starving them? Hamas? US Democrats? Second, given that Hamas uses women and children to hide behind, it is impossible for Israel to avoid completely the danger to women and children. We...
