I attended church yesterday and heard a thought provoking message entitled, "Would you Love Jesus if He were Broke?" In other words, would you Love Him without the promises?

You guys all realise do you not that God describes His church with 2 principle definers in revelation. Here are they who keep the commandments of God and have the faith and testimony of Jesus...and the testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy. Revelation 12:17; 14:12; 19:10. Would it be too...

Exactly. Well, Islam might. But Islam isn't the Antichrist. They don't uphold Christ with one hand and trample upon His authority with their feet.

That's actually a fair question. We don't discuss Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, Mithraism, or any number of other "isms" anywhere near as much as we do Catholicism. Considering there are over a billion Catholics in the world... About a sixth of the entire...

And there it is. A denial of the atonement through the blood of Christ.

If they are genuine and are in a true relationship with Jesus, He will take them out of that communion,, as He has done for countless others.

But the wheat aren't in the world, they are in the kingdom of God. That's what the parable reveals... The kingdom of God is like...Satan doesn't care to sow tares in the world, the world is already his. His concern is to disrupt and corrupt the church, so he sows the tares there....among the...

Does any of the above negate the choice of the Christian to walk away? For example, Jesus promises never to cast away anyone. That is encouraging. But does He override the choices mate by any? Once we become a Christian, do we lose the power of choice? Remember, 2Thess. 2:3 is within the...

@PinSeeker That falling away has a double fulfilment. It was first referencing the great falling away in the early centuries of the church in Rome that was at first in a true relationship with the Lord, but in later centuries apostatized in favour of the baubles and splendor of civil power in...

I was thinking of the expression in 2 Thess 2:3 that has reference to the man of sin, or Antichrist. That falling away...apostasia...from Strongs... 646 ἀποστασία apostasia ap-os-tas-ee’-ah ‭ ‭feminine of the same as 647; n f; TDNT-1:513,88; {See TDNT 116} ‭ ‭AV-to forsake + 575 1, falling...

You have to realise however where these tares are. Jesus's isn't talking about the world. He's discussing the church... Where the wheat is. Outside are unbelievers sure, but they aren't tares sown by the devil in the church.

I think the Greek word for apostasy has the same meaning as divorce. While God will never file divorce papers against us, we may do so against Him by believing a lie and walking away from truth. Divorce has the essential ingredient of a sound former relationship, but that relationship broken...

“For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. ” 1 Corinthians 2:16 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/1.Corinthians.2.16 “2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law...

An explanation of what that expression actually means comes a few short verses later... And it isn't about or physical death... It's about the old man, the former corrupt carnal fleshly spiritual nature that is crucified with Christ... “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not...

You misquote me, attributing to me your personal accusation, and then have the audacity to double down on that without seeing the need to substantiate it. I think you are too young and immature to be discussing theology on a Christian forum. Come back when you grow up.

What does loving your neighbour look like? Isaiah 58

Language reflects the customs of the culture that speaks it. Nearly every culture, from Babylon through modern times, rested on the seventh day. As languages developed, the name for the seventh day of the week remained rest day. In the mid 19th century, Dr. William Meade Jones created this Chart...

Let me guess. Sunday?

Are not Christians spiritual Israel? Is not the promise made to spiritual Israel that God's law is written upon the heart and mind? The very same law as written on stone? “2 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: 3 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the...

Define "numerous". Then give all the examples you can find. Not saved except they go to church on Saturday? Interesting concept. I do understand however why you would think that. After all, the Sabbath commandment is a law right? And one can appreciate, from scripture, that murderers...
