    First Work of Faith: Confessing Jesus Christ

    Did you ever wonder then, why Jesus said that sir? I tend to agree with him sir, that is always the first step, ever hear of a Christian who became a Christian before they ever even heard of Jesus?

    Eternal salvation vs daily service

    We believe that part of Jesus' words apply to our time now 360, during these last days. You are quite correct, endurance for most of us to the end of this system is not about being granted everlasting life, rather it would be our deliverance alive into the millennial Kingdom. The other sheep...

    Searching For The Name Of God

    Hi Walter, we are fine sir, thanks for asking. Did you know that statement applies to all the faithful angels sir. Interestingly though they are mortal, whereas Jesus was the first to be granted immortality. That is a concept that I cannot understand. Perhaps one day.

    Eternal salvation vs daily service

    Hi E, lots of verses in the Bible dealing with salvation. When we sign on to serve God, we sign on to serve Him eternally, endurance is simply in all Christians vocabulary. Generally when God's word mentions life it is talking about the real life, life eternal. A prime example is found at Mat 16:25

    Eternal salvation vs daily service

    Already settled 360, Jesus said the one who endures to the end will be saved. If he is wrong, what hope do we have for salvation anyway? The Bible does not contradict, and interprets itself. So if a person wants to believe that because he believes in Jesus he is saved, so be it, but even the...

    Searching For The Name Of God

    Just part of the assignment Walter. Our assignment is to reach others with the good news of the Kingdom of God, to make disciples that observe all the things Jesus commanded. We fully recognize that most we speak to will not become a Christian, but oh how joyous it is when we see someone who...

    First Work of Faith: Confessing Jesus Christ

    Did you disagree with my statement Rob?

    Searching For The Name Of God

    Following our progressive comments, my usage of it to you was the teaching them to observe all the things I commanded. When I asked you a question, you answered it yes, which may very well be true, perhaps I incorrectly stated it when I asked you if you knew what those words meant, I was asking...

    Jesus : our Sanctification... 1 Corinthians 1:30

    Not to the crowds he didn't now did he. We cannot choose to be born again, God chooses that sir.

    First Work of Faith: Confessing Jesus Christ

    The first work of every Christian is taking in knowledge of God and Jesus Jn 17:3. As you learn more about them then you will either draw away or make changes in your life to align yourself closer to God. Then you continue to press on to maturity in hopes and intentions of serving God for an...

    Jesus : our Sanctification... 1 Corinthians 1:30

    Not at all sir, most people believe in Jesus, but few obey him. There is no shame in not understanding words Be, that is why there have been many dictionaries produced. I will certainly agree with you that if you don't believe the gospel, you certainly will not obey it.

    Mat 28:20 sir

    Re Spirit baptism

    Those baptized with holy spirit are actually numbered in the Bible Joe, Rev 14:3. Itemized by tribe in Rev 7:4-8. And the reason why Rev 5:9,10

    Jesus : our Sanctification... 1 Corinthians 1:30

    Yes, not counting Jesus, the first born again Christians happened on Pentecost of the year 33 CE, which was after Jesus' death as you said Be. All who receive salvation are saved through that sacrifice, again as you stated. Only those who do the will of God will however receive salvation, based...

    Saved by God := Through Faith

    Yes sir, that is our primary works. Can you think of any other works we Christians do?

    Searching For The Name Of God

    Generally when someone asks a question like I did, one would give the meaning don't you think Walter? Jireh means provides; Nissi means Banner; and Shalom means peace sir. In all cases those were not part of God's name, rather the Jehovah part was His name.

    They Are A Detestable Thing?

    Was you asking me this Wrangler, or did you post it in the wrong place sir?
  18. Robert Gwin

    They Are A Detestable Thing?

    Remember Wrangler, all things were created perfect, however Adam's sin changed that. Really difficult to understand why all of creation has to suffer for Adam's sin, but that is the only way it can be justified. Man was designed, as well as all souls to eat vegetation sir.

    Searching For The Name Of God

    You are speaking English Walter, and you used Jehovah in each verse you posted, so if you think it should not be there why are you using it. YHWH is pronounced Juh hoe vuh in English sir. You cant change that it is simply the way it is. Once I was so ignorant I thought Jireh was God's last name...

    Jesus : our Sanctification... 1 Corinthians 1:30

    So you think they did all those things in Jesus' name because they did not believe in him. I see. Best take the Bible as a whole sir so you don't lose your talent to one who has more.
