    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    Actually, you haven't made your case clear enough as far as I can tell...you have not convinced me of your pov. If I were in the jury, there would not yet be any concise conclusion.

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    No, you haven't. Actually it does. But you don't accept that scripture as being valid for some reason. You are assuming therefore that adelphos does not mean brother in the verses in question. But I believe that you only see it that way because of your religious predisposition. You have...

    The false premise of Universalism.

    The Gentiles who place their genuine faith in Jesus. The children of the kingdom, here, in context, being the Jewish people.

    HEBREWS 9 THE NEW TESTAMENT WAS FOR ISRAEL ONLY ***

    Eph 3:6, That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel: "His promise in Christ by the gospel" is found in the New Testament. Therefore the premise of this thread, found in the title, is faulty.

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    More judgment that amounts to pointing the finger (and there are three fingers pointing back at you also). When Jesus says "Hypocrite" as a judgment He is correct for He is the Son of God; and there is no backlash on Him because He is the Son of God. You are not; and therefore such passages as...

    The false premise of Universalism.

    I think that you are taking that verse out of context. Everything will be revealed at the judgment; at which time those who are unworthy shall be cast into outer darkness. Mat 8:12, But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of...

    The "like manner" of Acts 1:9-11

    No; for He laid aside only the attributes of Deity. God cannot cease to be God (Psalms 90:2). He truly was God in the flesh. If you do not agree, then I fear for your salvation (see John 8:24).

    God's Desire is that All Men be Saved!

    everlasting has to do with the length of time; whereas it is only the word eternal that has to do with the absence of time. If we only have age-abiding life; and not eternal and/or everlasting life: then life ends for all, even to those whom God has promised everlasting life...all of God's...

    Isaiah 9:6

    The Father dwells in Jesus and He in the Father. I do believe that the Father is the Spirit who dwells in the person of Jesus Christ, making Jesus' Spirit the Father (see John 4:23-24, John 14:7-11).

    True Trinity.

    I believe that that is indeed what he is saying, as that is the usual line of the Jehovah's Witnesses (as he may be one of those or else a Christadelphian). But I will also let him respond.

    True Trinity.

    They are both the same Person and distinct from each other. Jesus is the Father come in human flesh; distinct from the Father in that He dwells in human flesh. You are only half-right. The way you are preaching it, that is Tritheism. It says plainly (kjv): Psa 50:1, [[A Psalm of Asaph.]]...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    No you didn't. his mother's sister and Mary the wife of Clophas are two different people; otherwise you have two sisters having the same name. Not really.

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    He is there talking about being disqualified from ministry. Why don't you ask that question of the Lord when He is judging you? Jesus is God...and the Man who mediates between Himself and man. The very same scripture says that He is the only mediator between God and man...and He Himself is...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    The verse indicates that the saints are dead in the grave until Jesus Christ returns. And therefore to pray to them is to pray to the dead (necromancy).

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    In the church, who has more authority: Apostles, or those who do not necessarily have the Holy Ghost? There has been testimony on this thread, even by someone who is Catholic, that there are many Catholic Priests who have gone apostate and who are more inclined to preach communism than the...

    Omnipresence of God

    In our understanding of these scriptures we must know that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh (1 John 4:1-3, 2 John 1:7) and that these scriptures declare that He dwells in us by His Spirit; nevertheless He is a Man sitting on the right hand of the throne of God. I believe that He is indeed...

    Isaiah 9:6

    I hold to the kjv, which calls Him the everlasting Father. No; distinct not separate is what the creeds indicate to us. We can indeed see it to mean that if we take into account John 4:23-24 coupled with John 14:7-11. Nevertheless, in Isaiah 9:6, the fact that the son who is given shall...

    What Is Love?

    Also it appears that the apostle is commanding us to be angry in order that we might not sin. Being angry at sin is a major part of having victory over it, impaho.

    True Trinity.

    The Father is not the Son; for He inhabits eternity and is not in the flesh except after He descended to dwell in flesh. However, the Son is the Father in that the Father is the Spirit who dwells within Him as the Person of the God Son (John 4:23-24, John 14:7-11). There is one God (James...

    They will also be accountable on their day of judgment for rejecting His words. If, when the voice comes from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my children," they do not come out; they will definitely partake of her sins.
