Praying NOW for all of this bro. I ask Him for that peace that surpasses all understanding, and that you will feel better soon. That He will refresh your strength. Why do you feel disturbed in mind brother?

I sure hope this is not the case. It seems to say we are saved in increments and, cannot buy that. How "saved" does one have to be to, well...be saved? And, what about those new to the faith...they sure are not complete in Him yet. Guess we will all find out one day.

So, would you be the one who throws that first stone, with obvious glee I would imagine?

Understood. Jesus askes Peter 3 times if he loves Him, Jesus questions: "Do you love me" 15 "agapaō" 16 "agapaō" 17 "phileō" Peters replies: "I love you" "Phileo" "Phileo" "Phileo" These are easy to understand and straight forward. I will always look at the simplest...

Yes, thank you. I do understand there are different meanings of many words that are the same in English spelling. The different kinds of "love" are pretty easily understood but, foresee and foreknow are still stubbornly not budging as, there is really no discernable difference between the...

Hi Hillary, I will pray now, that you will be led to the perfect job, only God can do that, chin up and confidence in Christ sister! And, it is when we seem to be at our breaking point (I think we have all been there, many times) where trust and faith REALLY mean allot as, that's when He comes...

"Foreknow is to intimately know beforehand. A relationship. An election. Foresight is just knowing what will happen. " Thank you for the short answer. It still seems pretty much synonymous to me though. "anyone serious about Scripture will at least investigate the original languages." Not...

@BARNEY BRIGHT I'm sorry but, I messed up the order of my post you are referring to. This was not directed at you: "If you were to be judge instead of God, heaven would be empty." "First of all there has to be true repentance so that forgiveness can be given. A person who isn't truly...

I speak "English", the bible has been written in "English", I understand in "English"...just like all the other Nations and tongues read, understand and speak in their own. Why would this all be lost in translation with just the English? Perhaps you can enlighten me as I am not inclined to go...

Did Jesus nastily tell all those filthy gentiles, the prostitutes, whoremongers, drunks etc, etc to GET OUT until they cleaned up their act?? I thought it was Christ IN us and the holy Spirit IN US that did the cleaning up. Or, would you rather get the glory for "doing it yourself"? Your...

Hi Curtis, Agreed with what you say except I have a question about this para: "Fortunately, a shallow and incorrect knowledge of Jesus being divinity is not a salvation issue, because you can be on milk of the word and not on meat, and only believe Jesus is the son of God, and still be saved."...

Same thing far as I can tell. fore·know /fôrˈnō/verb LITERARY past tense: foreknew be aware of (an event) before it happens. "he foreknows his death like a saint" fore·see /fôrˈsē/ verb past tense: foresaw be aware of beforehand; predict. "we did not foresee any difficulties"

It seems to mean that He only changed in the fact that He "took on the (physical) form..." His character, same as The Father, never changed.

Agreed, many negative implications with this belief. If anything, BE PREPARED in case one just might be "wrong" :eek: Lol...

Thank you...much appreciated!

I will pray for Zach when I pray for one of my nieces as, she too is conflicted. Just turned 25 and is surely much more conformed to the world than not. Yet, she knows the truth and will still ask me questions. Puberty is a very tough time, especially for the boys. Prayers!

Hello LLS! God tells us in Matthew 6:8, "Your Father knows what you need before you ask him." God knows because He sees the end from the beginning, He already knows our hearts and minds and what we will choose. Who then, can He not "Make all things work together for the good, for those who...

Thank you brother!

My heart is hurting for him. I take it he is not a Christian? I only ask because having the most awesome dog (companion) for going on 16 years, I KNOW it would break me ... IF, I did not have Christ to hold onto as, He never leaves nor forsakes, the bottom of my own world would fall out as, I...

"Rom_13:3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:" Sure is not this way anymore, it is the opposite as, our "leaders" are bought and sold to the highest bidder! So many...
