" No, unless we can have that discipleship with Christ alone, then we do not share in Christ as brothers." Yes, that is obvious, To me a disciple of Christ IS a true believer and follower and, IMHO-the Church (true, in Christ Christians) should be helping, meeting and eating meals together on a...

I kind of see that scripture as being faithful and grateful, all of the workers agreed to work for a Denaria (?) The workers who started early felt jipped, and I probably would have too, lol. But...could it not be speaking of once and agreement is made, it is made. There were no other...

So, you would be a 2.5 point Calvinist. Irresistible Grace used here is nothing more than being forced. I don't think our God is like that at all. Limited atonement (L) say's that Jesus died only for a elect few. What about all of those "whomsoever wills" ALL who call on the name of Christ...

"Yes, this is a better forum than most. That's why I'm here. :) Or, maybe it's a better forum because you are here :) And, yes, Dave and Epi. I like them very much (now, lol) even though we do not agree on several things. I know pretty much what the regulars believe by now, and even though...

You do have a wonderful way with words @Hidden In Him ... I agree with all you say. If per chance, an unbeliever who is truly seeking Him were to pop on here out of curiosity...I think our God would guide them, even on here, lol. "Forums necessitate that one be skilled in debate and...

I have heard it said that God is Just but not fair...could be true when, in our own eyes, we might think of the vineyard workers who all got paid the same, when some worked from sun up till sundown and others came in at the last hour or so... Matthew 20:1-16 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a...

Then how did He enter the upper room if the doors were bolted shut? Did He not ascend to heaven and sprinkle His blood on the Mercy Seat before coming back to earth for 40 days? I always thought that once He was raised it was in His glorified body. I never believed that He was in His regular...

"Hi Nancy! I'm assuming you mean by this question, "What should we as the church look like to those looking in on us from the outside who are not a part of it." (There's another way to interpret what you are asking, but I'm assuming this is the right one)." Spot on assumption! Yes, that is the...

This was spoken by St. Thomas Aquinas, and I tend to agree with what he say's. "I answer that, Christ's was a glorified body in His Resurrection, and this is evident from three reasons. First of all, because His Resurrection was the exemplar and the cause of ours, as is stated in 1 Corinthians...

Here it is @"ByGrace" ♥

I would not agree, you are very hard on yourself...many of my posts have a sarcastic bent, and I am working on that, as it really does not fit me anymore. I have come a very long way with it though, lol!

Jesus was in His Glorified body when they "gazed,saw, watched" Him ascend. Jesus was in His glorified body when He told Thomas to put his very fleshy hand into his wounds. That is not saying that Jesus is not Spirit! You and I are spirits living in mortal bodies. Once we are free from the...

Amen! Reminds me of the unjust judge and the widow ;)

I'm sorry Scott, but I have a hard time following your "logic"?

I'm praying for you too Willie, satan is working overtime lately...I pray that he steals no more joy from Gods children!

I will pray that the Lord give you His you and His peace that surpasses all understanding. And that you realize and believe what He say's about you. youtube you say lauren daigle - Yahoo Video Search Results w In Him, -nancy

"By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." I know there are many ways to love a brother or sister in Christ but, what should that look like to those "without" the Church? Just looking for others thoughts ♥ @"ByGrace"

"Still, "why are you looking into the sky" for what cannot be seen?" "... This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.” So, does "seen" not really mean "seen"?? :confused:

God has given to ALL a measure of faith. "For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith." Romans 12:3

Indeed Helen, We are promised all kinds of trials and tribulations. Yes, yes, yes-He promises to be WITH us through the storms...opportunities to exercise our faith - and that can be tough to do sometimes...
