    WOMEN ARE TO KEEP SILENT IN THE CHURCH

    Not that I heard from him. I always thought him appointing her an elder was church politics. It struck me as odd that not a single elder raised any objections, or if they did, they did not tell us, especially as at least one of them was so bible centric, how scripture is the perfect standard to...

    John says this to her Which implies this is not a Church as just some of her children walk with God. Walk in Christ’s Commandments 4 I rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father. 5 And now I plead with you, lady, not as...

    Malachi 1:1-2:7 and Matt 10:1-11:30

    For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. Pretty low bar to get over, as Jesus had much to say about them, all those woes He spoke of about them. It was all a scam, an...

    The flood of old and now approaching days like Noah?

    Jonah vomited out on the ground by a whale and standing up would make anyone frightened to see and listen to what he was saying. He could have appeared dead like a zombie and then coming back to life. They all repented. The story spread far and fast. It does say Jonah prayed from within the...

    Do non-Christians go to Hell after death?

    I don't see that anywhere in scriptures. we have no further opportunity to be forgiven our sins done in the body after we physically die. Jesus says it this way John 8:24 Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.”...

    Ruined their life and it is lifelong, can not go back, Changing hormones in youth means they do not develop normally, they are forever marred physically and mentally. Surgeries to remove and change body parts, no going back. Kids minds are not matured enough to be allowed to make certain...

    Biden administration is opposed to the ban as you would expect. Ban in place for children under age 18. A ban will open the door for more bans in other states This is about a law recently passed in Tennessee...

    Do non-Christians go to Hell after death?

    The thing about hell before Christ ascended, it was the place of all who died. There was also the word sheol used to describe hell. Hell held the good and the bad in separated compartments. The just went to the good side, and the unjust the bad side. No one Jesus said has ascended into heaven...

    For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God...

    You are a new creation in Christ in the Spirit, joined as one spirit with God and that new spirit does not and cannot sin. What part of us that does sin is the old man of the flesh. and that old man is never saved, it is destroyed.

    Sinless perfection is easy

    I John 3 8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been...

    Israel

    That judgement is after the resurrection of the just and unjust. The only flesh that is left alive at His return are those caught up to be with Him in the clouds. And then we are changed into glorified bodies like He has. And all the other remaining flesh left behind as in not caught up, is...

    You are making a huge assumption as to the nature of the elect lady and her children At the end of the very short letter, John writes this 12 Having many things to write to you, I did not wish to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, that our joy may be...

    WOMEN ARE TO KEEP SILENT IN THE CHURCH

    People do go their own way, and do what seems right in their eyes, but you won't have any scriptural backing to do that. I went to a church once where the pastor appointed a rich women as an elder, course it was wrong. Her husband was also an elder. She died a few years later before her husband...
