    True Trinity.

    Spirit. I agree. I don't. Why not? Isaiah 9:6 tells us that the son that was to be given would have the name of, among other things, the everlasting Father. Now I have actually seen people explain this away; but in order to do so they have to change the scripture as it is written not...

    Do you belong to "the [true] Church" (1 Tim 3:15)?, if so, how do you prove it?

    @Ernest T. Bass, I have seen legitimate miracles of healing that have been legitimate and of the Lord; so no, they did not cease at the closing of the canon of scripture. As for ecstatic utterances, if you know your Bible you will be able to point out the places where it speaks of people...

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

    Except that the word of the Lord teaches otherwise; and it is more of an authority on the truth than is the church; since it is written by the apostles of the church; and apostles have more authority than your average priest as he is going to write the doctrine of the church. Are you really...

    What Is Love?

    I'll never forget that day that someone gave me an award for humility and I pinned it up on my wall. :D:p:cool:

    True Trinity.

    I don't consider that this understanding is an essential for salvation; However I would mention to you @amadeus, that within the creeds is the statement that believing in them is indeed an essential for salvation. So if you must see a biblical precedent for the Trinity in order to believe in...

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

    If the woman is Israel, then the seed of the woman are indeed her biological offspring. It is a major hermeneutic of the Bible that it is to be taken literally except in cases where it is clearly parable, metaphor, or simile based on the surrounding language.

    True Trinity.

    Alright, I suppose that someone who is younger will be able to benefit more from what I have written.

    Do you belong to "the [true] Church" (1 Tim 3:15)?, if so, how do you prove it?

    Col 2:13, And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Col 2:14, Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to...

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

    How do you figure that I do that? I acknowledge Christ's Deity; something that you deny: which is also an essential for salvation (John 8:24; John 8:58-59; John 10:31-33; Exodus 3:14). In the above verses, the Pharisees and scribes understood that Jesus was claiming to be God (and that if we...

    True Trinity.

    Could you elaborate on this, please?

    Do you belong to "the [true] Church" (1 Tim 3:15)?, if so, how do you prove it?

    Heb 13:8, Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. 1Co 14:27, If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. 1Co 14:28, But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him...

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

    Gen 1:1, In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Gen 1:2, And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Gen 1:3, And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 1Jo 1:5, This...

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

    In order to keep the Jehovah's Witness doctrine, you obviously have to change scripture so that it fits your view.

    All kinds of subliminal messages in that thing.

    Translation? Why? the whole of the thread doesn't substantiate your pov.

    The year of discrimination.

    The year of discrimination may indeed be prolonged in the sense of when it shall come; and therefore this thread is less of a prophecy and more of a doctrine; That as soon as a political party that is against Christianity gains power again, the government will be certain to discriminate against...

    Do you belong to "the [true] Church" (1 Tim 3:15)?, if so, how do you prove it?

    That's okay; because I bump the threads that I think are important from time to time.

    Do you belong to "the [true] Church" (1 Tim 3:15)?, if so, how do you prove it?

    Then you should be able to write at least three paragraphs on what it does say. No, it does not say anything except that I don't want to derail this thread or convolute things by making repetitive posts. The information is there for you if you want it.
