    Can a person be a Christ-follower without falling in lock-step with the institutional church?

    Sad but true. In this age of Laodicea the external church is going to crumble more and more

    Revelation 9:1 - 11 Who are these locusts representing?

    I have read many books on end times and seen enormous opinions on what people think they mean. Here is what I know,. Whatever they are- they are special creatures that are imprisoned to be released for the time specified in REvelation. John describing them is metaphorical as his language...

    Revelation 4:6-8 The four living creatures

    They are four living creatures with unique "physical qualities". You may get many opinions here but these are all guesses and can be anywhere from 0 to 100% wrong. If it was important for us to know- god would have made sure He inspired John to tell us.

    Fear Rules Christianity - True or False?

    A true believer who is grounded in the Word should fear nothing in this life! god gave me a burden to witness to teh JW's and over the course of several years I collected a JW library larger than some kiongdom halls in order to know their minds and use the word againt the philosophy ensnaring...

    Five reasons why you aren't a "true" Christian - Are you toast?

    Absolutely wrong questions!!!!!!!! there is only one thing that determines whether one is a Believer or not. Have they placed their trust in teh death and physical resurrection of Jesus for their sin debt? If the answer is yes they are saved! They have been given a new life, mind and heart...

    Can a person be a Christ-follower without falling in lock-step with the institutional church?

    Depends on which church you mean by "institutional church" I have been a believer for over 50 years and I have never agreed 100% with any church. The disagreements are minor,. Having said that we must be a memeber of a local assembly as is commanded in Pauls letters and in Hebrews 10&12. We...

    im diskusted by my self.

    You need to get over yourself and focus solely on who Jesus is and what He has done for you! If you have emotional or psychological issues, take your meds and live according to what jesus says and not your silly accusations say.

    What is the sin of unbelief?

    Sorry, but no one can be saved without trusting in the death and resurrection of Jesus, or however in their language HIS name is pronounced. Without knowing Jesus and trusting in His death and resurrection- one is lost no matter how "religious" they appear.

    Proverbs 26:5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit. Your insulting is more subtle than Behold but you do insult . You post foolosih responses the you should know better. You reject what a person says about themselves and continue to react according to is a...

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    That is incorrect. Jesus ascended sometime after Mary saw HIm risen in the garden and a week later when He appeared to the Apostles with Thomas with them. Remembering jesus is the OT fulfilment of the high priest, then the following he did in obedience 1. Could not be touched lest He be...

    CHURCH ELDERS MUST HOLD TO THE MYSTERY

    Not so we would be obedient but as an act of obedience. Jesus commanded the apostles to go worldwide baptizing (with water) to all nations not just Jews. Phillip baptized the Ethiopian Eunuch. It is simply showing obedience to th ecommand of Matt. 28. That is not the spirit baptism, that...

    CHURCH ELDERS MUST HOLD TO THE MYSTERY

    That was John the Baptists baptism. Paul baptized the philippian jailer and his family and the few mentioned Corinthians

    CHURCH ELDERS MUST HOLD TO THE MYSTERY

    Without being baptized by the Spirit, one is not saved. Water Baptism is something the church has been doing since after pentecost. It is a sign of obedience and discipleship. And a public declaration we have committed to following Jesus.

    CHURCH ELDERS MUST HOLD TO THE MYSTERY

    Baptism is for a believer after they have received the gospel..

    Freed : From Calvinism and HyperCalvinism )Tulip<>5 Pont.

    You casn't see how you have twisted the Word of God and made it the word of Gods grace. When we leave accepting what is written is true- and then have to expalin what God really meant- we are promoting our own opinioon and not the word of God. You never proved your explanations, though I...

    Revelation 13:17-18 (666)

    Don't interp[ret but accept and understand. 666 is the number of his name or it will be his name or it will be a mark. All the guesses and interpretations sin ce JOhn wrote this are human ego driven. The world will know what teh mark is, whois the antichrist and what is his name and how it...

    fighting demons and satanists:

    Wow! don't know what all that meta[physical stuff means! But we fight demons and Satan with the Word of God only! It is the only offensive weapon god gave us to attack evil. Eph. 6

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    Then you reject the Word of God as written. Jesus claimed equality with the Father. John 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. John 5:23 That all men should honour...

    CHURCH ELDERS MUST HOLD TO THE MYSTERY

    Because water baptism is a command of Jesus. are you here saying Paul would directly disobey this command of Jesus? Matthew 28:18-20 King James Version 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all...
