    Limited atonement is a false gospel

    I guess Christ's Father had chosen 12 men to be Jesus's first disciples. The same Person has chosen the church to reign with Christ for a set period of His kingdom. The rest of His created beings, be they human or spirit will be redeemed, reconciled and appointed a role in the Father's...

    Churches are failing as we all know.

    We as humans sure know how to overthink and complicate things. It appears that Jesus kept things simple and to the point. When faced with a demon possessed person, Jesus didn't encourage them to seek out a doctor, who would refer them to a psychologist who would refer them to a psychiatrist...

    Limited atonement is a false gospel

    For me it's all about God. I am simply learning to place my hope and trust in Him in all situations. Its His responsibility to attend to me because I am His, as He bought me with His Son's blood. So no complacency or taking Him for granted. He is at the forefront of my mind. We are in an...

    Limited atonement is a false gospel

    I focus on the Shepherd so I have no fear of being misled or drawn away from Him. As one of His sheep I have no interest in hearing another voice. He said, My sheep hear My voice. He went on to say.... he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know...

    Limited atonement is a false gospel

    Why are you restricting God's TRUTH to the scriptures? When have you experienced Jesus's sheep hiding pearls of TRUTH away from others? Why are Jesus's sheep restricted to only hearing the voice of the Shepherd of history, words spoken 2000 year ago to the lost sheep of Israel? Are you...

    Our Creator made the serpent more cunning.

    Limited atonement is a false gospel

    This is why I responded to the Spirit of our Creator when He revealed to me that I had made the bible an idol, a substitute for the Spirit of GOD. I had the belief that there was my Father in heaven, Jesus my Saviour at His right and the Holy Bible which He sent to reveal all truth. I repented...

    Limited atonement is a false gospel

    So those sheep who didn't have knowledge of scriptures, including Gentiles believers, who spoke TRUTH in tongues, who prophesied the TRUTH, who dreamed TRUTH, had visions of TRUTH were not really Jesus sheep. And if they did receive TRUTH, from where did that TRUTH originate? Certainly not the...

    Limited atonement is a false gospel

    Why is God required to provide scriptures to reveal His truths? That is, to tell certain chosen humans every detail of His plans and for those particular humans to have them scribed or written down. If you can answer this question, I'll be more than willing to answer yours.

    Yes, Jesus was sent to die for all humans but redeem individuals that collectively are His church, His body, His bride. Nothing to do with an inanimate building. To be added to Christ (church) and being possessed by His Spirit is the greatest experience we can have in this life.

    Christ Died for All

    Did Jesus tell the scribes what was on the record and what wasn't? If he didn't, who told you this? How did you come to this conclusion? Nothing in the scriptures says this. It is purely an assumption made by someone and became accepted over time. I have the Spirit of Christ Who has the mind...

    Churches are failing as we all know.

    The great comfort is in the knowing and acknowledging that Jesus is responsible for constructing His church. And that He has His Spirit carrying out that task on earth. No wonder Jesus was quoted in saying, My yoke is easy and my burden is light. So any improvements to His body are done by...

    Thanks. Yes, we have one Father in heaven, Who is God.

    Churches are failing as we all know.

    S But for us who do know God, let's be encouraged that we have eyes to see, ears that hear and hearts that believe. I love the truth that regardless of whether I know, hear or see what God is doing, He is still carrying out His will. Only He knows, if us knowing His will, is beneficial. So I...

    Churches are failing as we all know.

    Again, what is a testimony of what the Holy Spirit has done or is doing in and through you? I love hearing people testifying to the work of the Holy Spirit. They are so encouraging. Jesus is the Head of His body, the foundation of the church. And one of God's truths that I've valued over the...

    Churches are failing as we all know.

    I wasn't referring to the counterfeit, the tares which are the works of Satan and his angels, but the work of Christ and His Spirit in and through the members of the church. I don't care about what Satan does, but like Jesus when He was on earth, I just want to see what Father is doing and get...

    Churches are failing as we all know.

    Who has a personal testimony of being led by the Holy Spirit? Who hears the voice of the Good Shepherd? The church is made up of those who believe in Christ. These are the indicators of those who believe. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils...

    Churches are failing as we all know.

    Yes, a few seem to know what Jesus taught them because they have read it in the bible. But a very few hear what He is saying directly to them. That's OK I guess as He is more than capable of ensuring He gets His truth across. Though should we be encouraging ourselves and others to hear the...

    Churches are failing as we all know.

    But how many actually have a real connection or relationship with the Christ? Where we could honestly say, I know Him personally and more importantly, where He would say, I know you. Many know about Jesus the Messiah but only a few have His Spirit in them. If we are not marked and possessed by...

    Christ Died for All

    Wow. It does seem that the 1000 year reign of Christ is yet to come. With all these wars and so many threats of war it does seem like we are only experiencing birth pains not peace. But this is where interpretation of scriptures vary SO much. What is the Spirit of God saying to the church...
