    You people

    Should they? The Father spoke loudly like a trumpet at Sinai, and Israel quaked and kept their distance. The Father spoke again at Jesus's baptism, but the Jews were too deaf to hear. Interesting don't you think, that the Father does have a form. And the Son was His image. The Father isn't some...

    The deepest human desire. - The longing to be safe at home.

    I think we, like the prodigal, would go anywhere where our Father is. It just happened to be home. But if the Father wasnt at home and we wanted to be at peace with him, we'd go anywhere for that wouldn't we?

    You people

    The Jews who sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, (supposedly) but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. John 5:18 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/John.5.18

    Is your faith defined by what you DON'T believe? - The anti-doctrinal stance

    How about anti lie? “10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who...

    Science is bringing us closer than ever to proving God is real

    A wolf will also eat you if you are alone in the wild. A gorilla in the wild will not tolerate you if you get too close. How many millions of years did it take for species to learn empathy? In the meantime, how did they survive? Survival of the fittest supposedly. But then after millions of...

    Science is bringing us closer than ever to proving God is real

    Science can never explain love. The self sacrificing acts of love on behalf of others. Science is predicated on self preservation. Survival. The very opposite to the nature of the God Who created all things. Science can observe one species surviving due to dependance on the death of others. It...

    If churches are failing, how can they be improved

    I believe that was precisely what I was saying. And yes, the scrutiny over appetite is absolutely valid. It isn't sidetracking or deviating. It's a God driven challenge to overcome the flesh. “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. ” 1 Corinthians...

    Turn the other cheek, or turn over some tables? - When do we do what?

    You won't find an example of any incident where Jesus reacted in self defence. He did react in His Father's defence... "You have made My Father's house a den of thieves".

    If churches are failing, how can they be improved

    Getting it right about Israel isn't going to cure the church of worldliness and lukewarmness, but it certainly will force apart the current Zionist links between church and state. That can only be a good thing. Who is true Israel? Is it the physical nation fighting for its existence in the...

    We Are Acts 29

    I would draw your attention to Revelation 14:6-12.

    If churches are failing, how can they be improved

    I would say the same as you, except I don't want to alienate 3/4 of the Christian population.

    Why don't you say what you really mean?

    If churches are failing, how can they be improved

    Jesus has already told His church what to do.. “15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods...

    For what reason was Jesus to be called the Son of God?

    That's an interesting text. We all appreciate the concept of self sacrifice inherent in those words, "I lay down My life", but I think most get it wrong (and I could be added to the most after this) by claiming that the Son raised Himself up from the dead. I disagree with this view, on account...

    Where did we get The Bible? - A IN-DEPTH STUDY

    Hyperbole is sometimes a good tool to make a point. Not sure I would agree in this instance.

    Where did we get The Bible? - A IN-DEPTH STUDY

    That's nonsense. Children manage to read Shakespeare and recite his plays in their yearly dramas. If someone has trouble reading the KJV, is likely because they don't read it often enough. I have no issues with it. I can read it aloud in modern English, "translating" or paraphrasing as I go...

    Are We in the End Times? How Long Do We Have?

    Nebuchadnezzar had a dream. A great statue. Daniel, under urgency, held a prayer meeting. Told the king a great deal of information, but basically, a history of the world, beginning from the kings time and ending with Jesus coming to change the world forever. We are living in the toe nails of...

    Choice of doctrine is driven by religious preconception - Spirituality is an individualized journey

    Tell you what. I'll give you two titles to help you out. Steps to Christ...The title of the book tells its mission. It points the reader to Jesus Christ as the only one who is able to meet the needs of the soul. It directs the feet of the doubting and halting to the pathway of peace. It leads...

    Choice of doctrine is driven by religious preconception - Spirituality is an individualized journey

    And so says someone who has never read one of her books, much like who judges an intricate but biblically valid doctrine on the basis of the little he thinks he has learned from those those who oppose it and understand it as little as he does.

    Choice of doctrine is driven by religious preconception - Spirituality is an individualized journey

    From AI... MY QUESTION...Did Ellen White ever say or write, " Sunday worshippers are of the devil" ANSWER... There is no evidence that Ellen White ever wrote or said the phrase "Sunday worshippers are of the devil." In her writings, Ellen White consistently taught that the seventh-day Sabbath is...
