    The Born again : Not workers of iniquity.

    Dear Behold, To be saved, we must be "in Christ". To be "in Christ" we must be given the Early and Latter Rain. When we are "in Christ", we are crucified on the cross with Christ. This represents the death (penalty of sin) that we must pay to be saved. Our death comes from the judgment of...

    The Born again : Not workers of iniquity.

    Dear Behold, Judas is a "type" for the Man of Sin. We all become "Judas" after we are called out from the world and the spirit of anti-Christ enters us. Luke 22:3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. Only believers with the spirit of...

    The Born again : Not workers of iniquity.

    Dear Behold, Water is the spiritual symbol for the Holy Spirit. It is also commonly referred to as "Rain". The Early Rain describes certain aspects of the Holy Spirit (when it is given and in what measure). I refer to it has the Early Rain of the Spirit so that people can better understand...

    The Born again : Not workers of iniquity.

    Dear Behold, There is only one true Gospel, but it is not preach in any of the churches and has not been since the end of the 1st Century. Also, I do not accept the teachings of Calvin even though some of his teachings contain a partial truth. But a partial truth is no truth at all. It is...

    The Born again : Not workers of iniquity.

    Dear Behold, The pathway to Salvation is the same for everyone. The Elect must experience the apostasy and be kill by Satan. Mat 4:4 But he answered and said, it is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Mankind is not saved...

    The Born again : Not workers of iniquity.

    Dear Behold, No, Paul never used the term "spirit of anti-Christ"; only John did. However, Paul understood what was about to happen to the church. Paul taught it to the Thessalonians in chapter 2 of his second letter to them. As I stated in my previous posts, the Gospel which Paul preached is...

    The Born again : Not workers of iniquity.

    Dear Behold, I do not associate with any "church" or group. I have not since 2005 when I received the Latter Rain of the Spirit. At that time, I left the apostate church. I now only fellowship with Christ and His Father and the "few" converted believers which I occasionally meet online...

    The Born again : Not workers of iniquity.

    Dear Behold, The "Elect" are the Bride. They have been called out from the world (Early Rain) and then chosen from the church (Latter Rain). Mat 22:14 For many are called (the church), but few are chosen (the Elect). The marriage occurs when an Elect believer receives the Latter Rain of the...

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Dear Davey, What you have stated above is a perversion of the Gospel of Christ. You make Christ out to be a failure in accomplishing the mission His Father gave Him: 1John 4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. Your belief comes from...

    The Born again : Not workers of iniquity.

    Dear Behold, The "church" consists of believers who have received the Early Rain of the Spirit. This is the Holy Spirit of Promise (Eph 1:13-14) and is what gives an unbeliever a measure of faith. Upon receiving the Early Rain, the person will be "called out from the world" and will enter the...

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Mr. E, You do not know anything about what I have learned from scripture. You are trying to fit me into a box that does not exist. Again: the church became apostate after Paul's death because the spirit of anti-Christ came and devoured it. Nothing has changed in the church since that time...

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Dear Mr. E, After the time of Paul, all the churches became apostate. I associate with none of them. You have no idea what you are talking about. Joe

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Dear Davy, No, it's not about biblical context. No where in scripture does it say ever mention any such thing. Here is what scripture says: Isa 28: 9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts...

    If you have read the book of Revelation, and not understood something, you have read wisely (thoughts?)

    Dear Strepho, The book of Revelation teaches the pathway to salvation the Elect will travel and complete during their lifetimes. It is not a book about future world events as you stated above. The events which are taught in Revelation are spiritual and happen within an Elect believer. The...

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Dear Robert Gwin, You need to continue reading Mat 12:31 into the next verse to fully understand what Christ is teaching: Mat 12:32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him...

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Dear Patrick1966, Very few believers can accept the truth that the church became apostate near the end of the 1st century. Actually, there are no doctrines of Orthodox Christianity which are completely true. Some have elements of truth mixed into them but most of the doctrines are completely...

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Dear Patrick1966, The chaff represents the carnality of a person and it is that carnality which is the cause of sin. It must be destroyed and replaced with the new spiritual nature of the Holy Spirit. Only then will the child of God be born who will never sin. Mat 3:12 Whose fan is in his...

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Dear Webers_Home, Isa 66:22-24 is speaking about conversion. The dead bodies represent the Old Man who has been slain. Those who "bow down" and look upon the dead bodies represent the New Man. Mankind is the one who is in rebellion against God and is the one who has sinned. The penalty of...

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Dear rwb, Your understanding of salvation and how Christ achieves it within a person is not accurate. You asked: If it is true that every human shall be saved, then why does Christ warn man against the second death, that is eternal flames? First of all, judgment (the flames) is not "eternal"...

    "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive."

    Dear rwb, Those people who are our enemies today will ALL be our fellow brothers/sisters in Christ someday. Joe
