There IS a significant difference between the two words! So why is it used interchangeably?? And, I do not know why it even bothers me!!! Lol.

I have often wondered about the "age of accountability". It seems that the Hebrew tradition of the Bar and Bat Mitzvah might look at the age of 12? And then you have a scripture about 'he who knows to do right and does not, will be judged' it's in the bible in some variation, lol

"When Jesus returns will He find true faith in the churches?" My guess would be, very little.

Hello @friend of , "I've noticed that younger generations have far less engagement with the churches I've attended recently. I look around and see the pews packed with older folks, but youth seem to be a rare sight. Is this a sign of the times? In a few more decades, churches are foreseeably set...

Hi @farouk, "It" is referring to the FREE unmerited GIFT of salvation. David believes that to "accept" that awesome gift from the Lord Almighty is considered "works".

...Would you refuse the Gift of God??

"Only the self-righteous would accept it. Hard core sinners who only grace can save will not." Is there scripture to back this?

"Or God making salvation available to the self-righteous who because of some inner goodness, choose to obey." Nobody can eve get saved in this way...not one good, no not one... "This of course turns the gospel into law and involves salvation by works, not grace." This still does not address...

Because the fulfillment of His sacrifice had yet to be completed? JMO.

I am trying but just cannot click with this kind of logic Dave. "The word gift is an important one in the Bible, and it is good that we understand its definition and implications. In the New Testament, there are several Greek words translated “gift.” Some of these words are used in contexts...

Probably getting settled in his new place in town?

"The power is in the blood." Amen! Just check out @Triumph1300 signature :D

Hi Dave, I have a question for you; do you consider it "works" to receive a gift?

Yes indeed...that's why I said "...but he won't say..." "he needs professional spiritual help from someone who knows what they are doing.." I hope he will seek that help..." PS How do you get that cross icon? Man you have all kinds of em up your sleeve! LOL

No he does not. But he claims to have the "Truth" and that he himself is one of the 7 spirits in Rev. I would like to know his "name"...but he won't say..."these kind come out by prayer and fasting". Just saying ♥

So am I GG. He brings the spirit of anti-Christ, division...I refuse to entertain him any longer.

I am not at all a litigious person, and if Sovereign sues him, it does not mean she is in un-forgiveness.

I agree... go for it @Soverign Grace It is not like you are taking a brother or sister to court and it's not about the money. This man's lies IMO, need to be exposed. So many innocent people are so run down by that time, they just say forget it. I would sue the guy. JMHO ♥

I myself am very impatient at times, and proactive as well when waiting...trying in my own strength always just made more anxiety for myself though, lol. I still have those days but, nothing at all like it used to be, He has come through always so unexpectedly, and in such a way that I could...
