It's not enough to "praise" God to move the arm of the Lord in our behalf if all we do is that. Jesus said many draw nigh unto Him with their lips and honor Him with their mouths but their hearts are nowhere near His righteous right hand. They engage in "vain worship" by teaching false...

Well said. That is the exchange. The problem is that Satan daily wants to resurrect the old man of sin and we must crucify him daily, as Paul did - but most "Christians" in the names of "believe in Christ" and "freedom in Christ" not only refuse to do so, but they reserve for him a seat every...

Jesus, John, Paul and others didn't allow "grace" to cripple their tongues. We know exactly to whom their stern rebukes were directed. When it comes to the Jews, the pen of inspiration well tells us: Jesus called them children "of the devil". He called them "hypocrites". He called them "white...

Those who are fully confident in their beliefs don't need to circle their intellectual wagons around them when a challenge arises, and shouldn't be offended when shown the religious system to which they belong doesn't stand the test of Biblical scrutiny --- they should praise God that in His...

You mean the voice that said that to Jesus AFTER His incarnation? That was the Father. Who's voice said, "Behold, I will send My messenger and he shall prepare the way before ME"? That's right...JESUS, the God of the OT.

I didn't say the GOSPEL of John said that. I said the EPISTLE of John says it. "There are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost, and These three are One." - 1 John 5:7 KJV I don't need some foolish commentary telling me what I read so plainly in this verse...

Words ain't divine - Beings are. You need to learn that. "For if ye believe not that I AM, ye shall DIE in your sins".

Christians are supposed to be the best equipped people to deal with criticism, attack, etc....because "the servant is not greater than his Master" our Lord Jesus Christ "Who endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself". Isn't His example of how to deal with criticism ours to follow...

It is YOU who blasphemes God as the most unjust judge to ever exist...by denying the truth that Jesus had no advantage over His followers when it comes to meeting the Divine Standard.

Jesus is God in the highest sense of the word, friend. He was there in Eden speaking everything into existence. He was there with Abraham throughout his sojourn. He was there wrestling through the night until dawn with Jacob. He was there with Moses at the burning bush. He was there guiding...

"Attributes" don't get turned into flesh - they are merely the characteristics of the Second Person in the Godhead Who became flesh and took the name "Jesus". It's called "cooperation". Jesus was the Divine "active Agent" of the Godhead in Creation, "by Whom He made the worlds"...

Jesus had a sinful nature - it's why He had to "learn obedience". Saying He had a sinful nature is NOT saying He was sinful - He was perfectly obedient. It's not a sin to be tempted, but to yield to it: "Yield not to temptation, For yielding is sin; Each vic'try will help you, some other to...

Wondering that myself

The WORD that was made flesh was "God" and was there "in the beginning". There's simply no other way to understand the passage.

Two things: please read the KJV and stop calling Bible truth "blasphemy against the Holy Spirit".

Jesus' nature was no different than ours. "For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham..r." Whatever kind of nature had the "seed of Abraham", Jesus had that nature. Those of you who claim Jesus had some unfair advantage over humanity to live a...

John 1:1-3,14 KJV [1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and...

Catholicism can't trace its roots back to Christ because Revelation 12:17 KJV plainly says God's end time "Remnant" church will "keep the commandments of God". A "remnant" is the last part of something that is IDENTICAL to the first part that was there in the beginning, such as the last piece...

Yes, when we contend for the truth, there will always be those that take issue with us. One might even criticize you as seemingly unwilling to "earnestly contend for the truth once delivered to the saints". As my favorite preacher once said, "We are not called to make the truth POPULAR...but to...

Hi BOL, I’ve wondered how it is that Catholicism claims to be “above the Bible” yet points to the Bible as the claimed authority which establishes her superiority to it. Isn’t that akin to a Catch 22?
