    Did the ancient Pagan Religions get picked up as 'tradition'?

    What I hate about us imperfect human beings is we think the traditions such as Easter are equal to scripture. Well their not, no matter how much we imperfect humans try to say they are. Where in Scripture does it tell us to observe traditional days such as Easter and Christmas. We imperfect...

    Omnipresence of God

    user, says: I believe Jehovah/ALMIGHTY overshadowed Mary and she conceived a seed. Jehovah/ALMIGHTY simultaneously inhabits that seed AND remains in heaven (omnipresent). When Mary gives birth, we now have SPIRIT become FLESH. That bouncing baby boy is the ALMIGHTY manifest in the flesh. That...

    Omnipresence of God

    Don't misunderstand me. Most people believe, regarding God Holy Spirit, to be a person. While I agree that there are scriptures that personify The True God Holy Spirit, when viewing all the scriptures regarding the Holy Spirit of The True God it's not a person at all, but is the invisible...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    Psalm 138:2 KJV [2] I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. Barney, can you say Jesus is Lord? Tecarta Bible I recognize him as my Lord not only because he is our divinely...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    thank you for taking the time to reply. I still struggle with all the back and forth of what others believe and how it fits with my own. Mostly what exactly is His plan for the Jews born not of the promise but remain still in unbelief. Often have heard we gentiles are adopted which is far...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    VictoryinJesus said: Matthew 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. The Jews lost the opportunity to bear God’s name. Jesus Christ said to the Jewish chief priests and older men of influence: “The...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    As I said before and people continue to ignore even though I'm staying in context of these scriptures when Jesus spoke about the kingdom, some Bibles has it translated, "The kingdom of God is within" you want me to believe that Jesus was saying the kingdom of God was in the hearts of these Jews...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    Enoch111 said: Paradise is no longer on earth, and will not return to earth. It is in Heaven -- the "third heaven", where the New Jerusalem is located.[/Quote\] The context indicates that the “paradise” mentioned at 2 Corinthians 12:1-4 is not a physical paradise on earth. However, many...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    I disagree with the idea that those resurrected on paradise Earth will be resurrected with unsinnable bodies. Those who are resurrected on paradise Earth will still have free will. Those resurrected on paradise Earth will have new bodies yes and will continue to get younger and younger but I...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    The Jews, who believed in the one God whose name is Jehovah, there wanted to stone Jesus. Why? Not because he taught such a thing as a Trinity and that he was one-third of it, but because he spoke of himself as the Son of God, the Son of their God Jehovah. Jesus said to them with their stones in...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    As I said, I know paradise was located here on Earth and Luke 23: 43 wasn't saying that Jesus and this criminal would be in paradise that very day of their deaths. However many people think that this Scripture is saying Jesus and this criminal was in heaven that very day of their deaths. You and...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    who was Jesus talking to when he said, “The kingdom of God is within you”? It was to the hypocritical Pharisees that Jesus applied God’s words by the prophet Isaiah: “Their heart is far from me.” (Matthew 15:1, 8, AV; Isaiah 29:13) How could the Kingdom enter into those hard hearts? What, then...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    I know paradise was the garden of Eden here on Earth, but many people regarding Luke 23:43 think that this man and Jesus were in heaven that very day of their death.

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    Well I don't agree with your speculative answer. I agree with the truth and your speculative answer basically is saying Jesus didn't really die because you see God can't die. Besides people can reason all they want, the truth is God can't die. I've always believed God sent his Only Begotten Son...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    Jesus didn't go back into heaven until 40 days after his resurrection, right. So how was this man with Jesus in paradise on the very day of their deaths.

    predestination or free will

    predestination or free will

    I agree that God knew there would be those persons that would choose to be The True God servants. What I mean by that is God knows there will be those who will love him so much that they would have faith in him. God doesn't look to see which individuals will love him and have faith in him, he...

    What is a soul.

    I find it interesting that people quote only like one sentence of what I text and twist it out of context. Who does that? Oh yeah, Satan and his disciples

    What is a soul.

    We must understand that the scriptures tell us that the spirit that is in man is the same spirit that is in animals. So the spirit that is in man that goes back to God who gave it, isn't some spiritual intelligent being that has consciousness. The Hebrew word ruʹach and the Greek word pneuʹma...
