    Five reasons why you aren't a "true" Christian - Are you toast?

    Five reasons why you aren't a "true" Christian - Are you toast? 'true Christian'...hmmmm. Am I qualified by someone else's opinion? Am I toast? Ahhhh, far better than toast, toast with avocado and a smidgen of vegemite!

    Should a non-Christian have Christian friends?

    'should' is telling others what you think they need to think or do. How would you like others to tell you what they think you 'should' think or do.

    understanding forgiveness

    The truth is, if you are not assured of forgiveness yourself, you will not forgive others from your heart even if you do a head job.

    Can God be insulted?

    Can God be insulted? We insult God when we refuse the wooing by the Spirit for our salvation.....when we insist our activity is sufficient to impress God to that end.

    understanding forgiveness

    There we have it AJ. Your paradigm turns the order back to front. That is why we find disagreement. You do this because you have not seen the unspeakable immensity of Gods kindness in Jesus. The order you operate by makes mans doing the priority and determiner of God's kindness. It appears to me...

    understanding forgiveness

    If you refuse to forgive others you will loose the ability to believe you have been forgiven. That's how it works!

    understanding forgiveness

    ALL qualify....present continuous; that is the good news to you also. Not all will want the company of one so gracious, just as the older brother refused to come to the party the Father turned on for the prodigal. Those who have a 'holier than thou' attitude (subliminally or not) have hoops for...

    understanding forgiveness

    God's forgiveness is present and active for all people before we ask. It is God's unsolicited forgiveness which is his drawing power. It is the good news which we are to share with those who feel condemnation which in fact is the whole World. The evidence that people feel condemnation is the...

    IS THE RAPTURE FOUND IN THE OLD TESTAMENT?

    This basis for this view is grounded in the belief that when a person dies he/ she is not dead. Isn't this what the serpent told Eve to contradict God's statement? The serpent said, 'you will not surely die' Genesis 3:4

    Growing in Spiritual Maturity - Being, not doing

    Behold claims that you are not forgiven (saved) till one is born again. He pushes this point by putting the responsibility of being born again onto the individual. I say, we are forgiven before the foundation of the World, we just haven't heard about it (news) and to prove this, Jesus visited...

    Growing in Spiritual Maturity - Being, not doing

    In short, point no. 6 1. God wills all men to be saved....we know that from 1 Timothy 2:4 2. Men can resist God's will. Adam's choice is evidence of that. 3. God has forgiven all sin, past present and future. 2 Corinthians 5:19. 'God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, by not...

    Should a non-Christian have Christian friends?

    I never swim in my toilet, it's got a ring at the top; that's the demarkation zone. :clmSmlx

    Growing in Spiritual Maturity - Being, not doing

    You don't see it.....and you make no enquiry.

    Seek : HIS Righteousness.

    Your attitude Behold, is one of preaching AT. It is embodied in the way you present your case. I for one find this condescending as well as distasteful.....and in the post above, you speak out of both sides of your mouth....unaware of it.

    Growing in Spiritual Maturity - Being, not doing

    that's because you don't see it....and because you don't see it or more likely, don't want to see it, you wont see it.

    @Behold & @St. SteVen are you aware there is a third option in this?
