    Uncovering the Devil's Strategy

    The devil tempts, deceives and lies. But man is certainly held responsible and accountable if we heed the devil and allow him access to our lives. I agree we can't "blame" the devil for our choice to heed and follow him. It is new testament scripture written after the death and resurrection...

    Uncovering the Devil's Strategy

    Spiritual reality isn't always manifested on earth....that is why we must pray and battle that God's will be done on earth as it is in heaven. The devil has been defeated as far as heaven is concerned.....in the hearts of those who have received Christ.....in our new man. But our old man and...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    There is an old true saying is that the solution to one problem is often the beginning of another. Even scarier if the people in charge believe the ends justify the means. God is waiting for transgression to come to the full, before finally judging it all. As in Daniel, and as we have the...

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    There are errors in Protestantism and even more so in recent times. This isn't a competition between "Protestantism" and Catholicism, as I've already said. We happen to be talking about Catholicism versus the true gospel and biblical Christianity as given to us by Jesus and the apostles...

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    I just have noticed that when people have a lie lodged in their mind it blinds them to simple clear teachings of scripture, quite literally. Those scriptures I posted agree with many others. Unless you want to make a case that they have all be misinterpreted. Eternal life is inherited....like...

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    "Ceremonies" belong to this world and the flesh....they come under "elements of this world" of the old covenant......the kingdom of God is not about ceremonies/rituals. The early church certainly didn't have "confirmation" ceremonies, but people received the Holy Spirit in reality. There is...

    Canada wants to join Trump's golden dome defense shield system instead of buying fighter jets

    Well, keep in mind that at best only roughly half of Canada agrees with Mark Carney, and that's only IF there weren't dodgy things going on with the recent election, otherwise it is way more than half who disagree with him, and detest what he stands for, and cringe. Please try not to involve...

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    Oh the carnal mind of the natural man which cannot receive the things of God nor obey them! How it seeks to wrest and twist and splice and dice to justify things that cannot be justified. Show me Jesus and the apostles praying "the rosary" and I will gladly do it. But never mind, because they...

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    Oh dear, I don't know what bible you're reading, but this explains why you are so casual in your attitude. The scriptures are everywhere warning and exhorting the child of God, and for good reason. The devil prowls around like a roaring lion seeking who he may devour, and we have even been...

    A bit of a mess in the White House.

    God's word is always proved so true....there is none righteous, no not one. At different times and in different places oppressors oppress and then the oppressed oppress when they have the chance. That seems to be the story and state of this fallen world and its merry-go-round, sadly...never...

    Uncovering the Devil's Strategy

    Yes, blessed are the humble who don't claim anything for themselves....but give all the glory and thanks and praise to the One to whom it belongs because He is the One who is worthy. The more we go along the more we realize the truth of both our own unworthiness and His worthiness. It is for...

    Uncovering the Devil's Strategy

    Yes, Christ in us is the foundation........just think, His perfection, righteousness, holiness and life are in IN us and belong to our new man. Building with wood, hay and stubble is about building with things that are not of Him, not of His Spirit and not of faith. But if a believer is truly...

    Uncovering the Devil's Strategy

    Rom 3:19-28 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no FLESH be justified in his sight: for by the law is the...

    The new Pope has been selected

    Not at all, I'm just finished arguing with you.

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    I'm glad some are getting saved. What happens to them afterward.....I hope they are leaving Catholicism for the most part? Otherwise they are in danger of losing what they had received in Christ by being led far astray.

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    Show me where Jesus and the apostles "prayed the rosary". Come to Jesus and walk in His simplicity. Religion and rote is of the flesh. It's not something easily explained to those who are not born of the Spirit.

    The new Pope has been selected

    I don't[ wonder at all that you can't "hear" what I'm trying to convey. Come to Jesus and He will give you light to see by...and life.

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    Rote prayers don't sway the Lord. He calls it vain repetitions....like the pagans do. Where on earth does the Lord talk about "praying" a thing called a "rosary" in the word He left us? I'm afraid you've been......deceived.

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    You prefer the words of man over the word of God, to your very great detriment. God warns and admonishes us not to be deceived all over the bible. The devil is transformed into an angel of light....in order to deceive. Open your ears my friend. Wolves in sheep's clothing...in order to deceive.

    I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

    Oooooh, sounds scary brother......and the intimidation is on purpose......and in earlier centuries true believers faced much worse at the hands of that institution. Unfortunately the gospel is not reigning in the Catholic church, or even preached and taught for the most part, or maybe we could...
