    The Religious Mind

    Now I did expect to take some flack over being faithful in the little things...so, @"ByGrace" (Helen), I will pray for you... Because your calling me a j*rk reflects what is in your heart, also. It is the same in practicality as saying, "Raca", i.e. "you idiot". Don't worry, you are not in...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    Again, these are not pillars; but strikes of the sword against your false doctrine that righteousness is imputed only (that it is not also imparted to the believer). You may even be able to block the first two blows with your own sword or shield; but the third blow will do double damage and may...

    The Religious Mind

    I'm certain that Jesus was a Universalist just like you...He believed that everyone was going to heaven and that therefore He didn't really even need to go to the Cross to save us. I believe that I strive to be non-judgmental and un-condemning... And therefore if you are offended at my words...

    The Religious Mind

    I'm not really here to argue. If other people want to argue with what I am saying, I believe that my response ought to be according to 2 Timothy 2:25-26. It does say in 1 Thessalonians 2:2 (kjv) that when the apostles went to Thessalonica to preach, there was much contention from the response...

    ROMANS 9:4 THE PROMISES FOR ISRAEL ALONE ***

    If you read Galatians 3 more carefully, you will see that the blessing of Abraham is the promised Holy Spirit.

    The Religious Mind

    I believe that the Holy Spirit may be attempting to get to the root of something in some women's hearts...as to what is the root reason why they don't wear their hair long...for there are psychological reasons for this. Jesus says, I am He who searches the hearts and reins...

    The Religious Mind

    I don't expect that the truth will be received by everyone; after all, Jesus said that the way to life is narrow and few there be that find it. Which is not to say that 1 Corinthians 11:1-16 is speaking of a salvational issue. However, people's reaction to it does reveal the condition of their...

    What Is Love?

    Jehovah's Witnesses practice it and it works for them. Of course, this is a part of the reason why they are considered to be a cult. Nevertheless, we ought to remember that the word of the Lord is timeless and not to be dictated to by culture.

    ROMANS 9:4 THE PROMISES FOR ISRAEL ALONE ***

    The land of Israel is too small a land for all of the Gentiles to inherit it; and also for all of the people of Israel to inherit it.

    Halloween Street Preaching

    All you have to do is read the scripture in question; and I believe that you will see with your own eyes that it refutes the concept that Mary was a perpetual virgin.

    Estimated Dates of the Events of the 1 Year Great Tribulation of the Earth

    In Romans 6:14, the reason that sin shall not have dominion over me is mentioned: it is because I am not under the law but under grace. All the law and the prophets are fulfilled in two commandments. If I love the Lord my God with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength; and my neighbor as...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    No; I do not maintain it: but the Holy Spirit maintains it as I cooperate with Him. Psa 16:5, The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot. 1Pe 1:5, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 1Jo...

    The Religious Mind

    Hi Rita, Is your husband born again? If he is, then I think that as a born again believer yourself you will be comforted by the Holy Spirit concerning if or when your husband dies before you do. My wife is 13 1/2 years older than me, so she is almost certain to die before I do. If your...

    The Religious Mind

    Also, the reason for these things given in scripture is that it is "because of the angels" (1 Corinthians 11:10). This indicates to me that angels know the delineation between male and female primarily by the length of the hair; and that when men wear their hair long or females short, it brings...

    The Religious Mind

    There's not much that you can do about being divorced or having a tattoo; but if the Lord is speaking to you about your trousers then by all means obey Him. It is needful that we obey things out of obedience to Christ and not out of some kind of need to please our neighbor. If you are married...
