    The Problem With The Trinity

    I gave an answer and then I hit the wrong button on my computer and then lost it all; but I will try to restore the answer by typing the gist of what I said all over again; because it is important that you understand the message (and perseverance is one of the ways that we overcome the enemy...

    Very funny. I take it you're not one of the 144,000? (Revelation 14:5).

    can i take notes when i study the bible

    Except it was never really my desire. But if it happens to be a reality, I am fine and happy with that.

    can i take notes when i study the bible

    "The message of the Bible is so simple that a child can understand it; but so complex at the same time that the greatest theologian cannot plumb the depths of its understanding." I forget where that quote came from, maybe A.W. Tozer or someone of equal greatness in the kingdom.

    To hell with me

    There are plenty of websites devoted to the subject of Apologetics, that will show you sound evidence for the faith, if you actually wanted to believe, you could go to them and find substantial evidence for the faith. To start, maybe try Charlie Campbell. Always Be Ready (ABR) - Christian...

    The Problem With The Trinity

    Now you have that scripture in Revelation wrong. God said He would cause those of the synagogue of satan to worship Him before their feet, not them. Anyone who is in the church of Philadelphia would not consider it a promise that their enemies might worship them. Their attitude towards being...

    The Problem With The Trinity

    I remain unconvinced of your pov (see Hebrews 11:1); for I still believe that Jesus is the Son of God as this is identified by Isaiah 9:6 in the kjv.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    It is the primary tactic of satan that when the word of God has him defeated, he will question the word of God. As he said to Eve, "Hath God really said...?"

    Eternal Security

    Since I am not a connosseur (did I spell that right?) of Christian fruit, I am not sure that I know what you are talking about. The fruit that we bear is for Christ to enjoy and I for one am not so hungry that I actually try to eat fruit off of other people, since I am perfectly satisfied with...

    Eternal Security

    There are essential doctrines (such as the Deity of Christ, which is essential for salvation, John 8:24) and there are non-essential doctrines. If someone wants to divide over a non-essential, I do not say that they are not a Christian (although dividing over even non-essentials is not a good...

    Eternal Security

    It doesn't say, "This is what the Jews were thinking." Read it carefully: Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because (they thought) he not only broken the sabbath, but (they thought he) said also that God was his Father, (and they thought this meant that he was) making himself...

    Eternal Security

    Humanity generally doesn't head towards the light (John 3:19-21); but generally wants to believe that they are heading towards the light.

    For I acknowledge my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me. Psalms 51:3.

    This seems to be the answer that you had for me before: As if implying that I am some kind of Pharisee for bringing Hebrews 10:24-25 to the forefront; and lacking in mercy and without the infilling of the Holy Spirit: and saying incorrectly that I am heaping condemnation on those who don't...

    can i take notes when i study the bible

    Actually, you kind of did... Anytime anyone reads the Bible, it should be in a serious way. I haven't read your book and I know that God has given me great insight into what the Bible teaches as the result of prayer apart from the instructions in your book on How to Study the Bible. I'm not...

    Eternal Security

    Since you also didn't capitalize the word Saviour in this statement, I will "capitalize" on that and bring to your attention Isaiah 43:11: I, even I, am the LORD: and beside me there is no saviour.

    can i take notes when i study the bible

    I'm sure it's a good book and all...but I wouldn't put off reading my Bible until I can get a hold of it and read it all the way through.

    For I acknowledge my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me. Psalms 51:3.

    Also you didn't answer my question above, @Frank Lee.

    For I acknowledge my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me. Psalms 51:3.

    I never said that attending church is what makes anyone righteous. I was simply bringing to the forefront what it says in Hebrews 10:24-25. Of course it is important that the church you attend be be a Spirit-filled, Bible-believing church (that will tell of the love of Jesus, the mercy of God...
