    Scripture is not the last word.

    How lovely... I find it interesting that when we look into the realm of who is deceived and who is not, it is always the other person who is deceived and not ourselves. It's alright, I don't have to defend my experience to you. I know how intense the joy was that I felt in that hour; and I...

    Scripture is not the last word.

    I don't think that I have taken many trips there; as far as I know, my trip to heaven was a one-time experience. Though someone once told my older brothers that she believed that I slept in so much because I went to heaven in my dream-life when I was sleeping; I am unaware of whether this is...

    Scripture is not the last word.

    You are in effect calling me a liar...but I am accountable to the Lord for what I am about to say...what I have said to you is true, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost. Inasmuch as you do something to one of the least of these His brethren, you do it unto Him. So call me a...

    Scripture is not the last word.

    It remains true that every scribe that is instructed in the kingdom of God will bring out of his treasure things both new and old. This is saying that new things do come from the minds of those who are faithful; and this is all I am saying. . . . I will say unashamedly that I think that I may...

    No argument there...nothing that you have said there is in contradiction to my point.

    The Righteousness of God

    What does it mean to not die in your sins? Think about this for a while and then get back to me.

    Can a Christian have a demon?

    Rom 11:26, And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: Rom 11:27, For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. When all of Israel gets saved, you can be sure that they will...

    Can a Christian have a demon?

    Honest to God, man, that is a blatant and outright lie... There are 144,000, 12,000 from every tribe of Israel except Dan who will evangelize the nations in the last days. (Revelation 7) Rom 11:1, I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed...

    The Righteousness of God

    Jesus said, Jhn 8:24, I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. But if the doctrine of entire sanctification is not faithful, as you would seem to imply, it is true that everyone will die in their sins. I think...

    Scripture is not the last word.

    2Jo 1:8, Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. 2Jo 1:9, Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 2Jo...

    Scripture is not the last word.

    Mat 13:52, Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.

    The Righteousness of God

    Rom 4:5, But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

    Water Baptism:

    I also had a major experience with the Lord before being water baptized in Jesus' Name. I believe that He called me out before I received that point of contact because He knew that when faced with a decision to receive or refuse baptism in Jesus' Name, that I would not refuse. According to...

    The Righteousness of God

    See Romans 4:5, the application of it is that we are declared righteous because of our faith even though we are ungodly, our identity in Christ is that we are righteous even when we blow it. Our righteousness in Christ is not based on our performance, but on our faith in Christ. So then, now...

    The Righteousness of God

    Justified is to be declared righteous; and this can happen for the person who is ungodly. Justified is a positional standing before the Lord; righteous has to do with the condition of the heart. Hope this helps.

    Water Baptism:

    And I know that. But my point being, that there is an outward indication that someone is truly born again; and that outward indication is obedience to the word of the Lord. The first thing on the list of things to accomplish, for someone who wants to be obedient to the gospel, is to get...

    Scripture is not the last word.

    But surely the Lord has spoken to some of us personally. Jesus said, Jhn 10:27, My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: Surely not every word that has been spoken personally to Jesus' sheep has been recorded by them in the Holy Bible.

    Scripture is not the last word.

    1Th 5:19, Quench not the Spirit. 1Th 5:20, Despise not prophesyings. 1Th 5:21, Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. The above is, of course, testified to in the holy scriptures. The holy scriptures tell us not to despise prophesyings (i.e. utterances of rhema words of God that are...

    Water Baptism:

    So then, what is the delineating factor that determines whether someone is really a true Christian? It is actually false if you consider every Bible verse that speaks on the subject specifically. While it is clear that we are justified by faith and that this is often related apart from...

    Water Baptism:

    It has the power to save (Acts 2:38-39, 1 Peter 3:20-21 (kjv), Romans 6:4, etc.). One can likely be saved apart from water baptism; but as a confession of the Lord Jesus Christ, it will verily result in Him confessing you before the angels of God.
