Since He is Omniscient I think He would be able to see through any such duplicity.

One only needs to go as far as post #2 in that thread to get the truth.

It really is. And I also wouldn't disparage the younger generation like that. He can do a better job of relating the truth to us if we are reading a translation that has His words in it as He desires for us to hear them. If the way that the words are related is corrupted, then perhaps He can...

The kjv is not that hard to understand....anyone with a third grade reading level can understand it. Just get a dictionary for the more difficult words. You will even benefit by increasing your vocabulary. I find that there are substantial, subtle differences that make a difference when...

Eph 5:30, For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. Eph 5:31, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. Eph 5:32, This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. So...

I think that the process begins when we are justified. Becoming absolutely one with Him, would be a second benefit (2 Corinthians 1:15) impaho.

I would just point out the following scripture passage: Rom 8:12, Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. Rom 8:13, For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. Rom 8:14, For...

All you have to do is combine Matthew 13:41-42 (kjv), Matthew 13:49-50 (kjv), and Matthew 25:46 (kjv). Mat 13:41, The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; Mat 13:42, And shall cast them into a...

Hi @brakelite, I believe that you have a theology that amounts to wishful thinking. regards, @justbyfaith

Hi @amadeus, The nature of the punishment is that there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth; and the duration of the punishment is that it is everlasting. The Lord, while we are on the earth, offers it to us to have our sin(s) washed away and the very nature of sin dealt with in eternity by...

Suppose I hit the ceiling of the situation while on earth...this does not necessarily mean that the Lord is going to immediately take me home; for I may be of some use to him on earth, exemplifying His virtue and glorifying His name thereby. Showing that not every Christian in the world is a...

Truly Timothy preached the truth...but Paul in 2 Timothy 4 warns Timothy that there will come a day when people (sitting under his teaching) will no longer endure sound doctrine. Of course there is a broader application in that we know (and see) that in these last days the body of Christ in...

I'm not sure what it is that you are trying to say by this. But I would say to you unequivocably that it is sound doctrine to understand that there are eternal torments and that this is the punishment of the sinner who rejects the forgiveness of Christ. In Matthew 13:41-42 and Matthew...

I do find that any time I begin to contend for this very faithful doctrine in the word of the Lord, that opponents of my pov most often are looking for any flaw that I might show forth to them so that they can say, "see? it isn't true...because it isn't true of you..." (see Titus 2:7-8, 1 Peter...

I am saying that the Lord is sovereign and Omnipotent and loving...and that based on this, He would set apart at least one Bible that contains His unadulterated full counsel (and also make it available to everyone). re #244 (The false gospel of grace).

If we cannot reach the goal of perfection, what is the point in seeking to obtain it? we would just be spinning our wheels... And also, those who do not believe they can reach the goal, impaho, really are not attempting to achieve it; because they believe that they never can...and therefore...

Indeed, all have sinned and come short of the glory of the Lord...however, our sins can be washed away in the blood of Christ and we filled with the Holy Spirit so that we no longer walk according to the flesh. It is indeed what they teach.

The kjv is never in error. But for you, further study is done in a translation that is biased against the requirement for holiness in scripture. If you understand that the kjv is just as inspired, if not more so, than your watered-down translations, then you would be able to see that the kjv...

2Co 7:1, Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. You are looking at it in the wrong translation...in fact, you have rejected the kjv and heaped up for yourself teachers in the...

Dan 12:2, And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. Dan 12:3, And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
