    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    Hello Scott....I couldn't agree more and I know there are a few others here who would also....I saw a bit of a reference above to a Robe of Salvation......I am not 100% certain but isn't it described as The Gown of salvation and then The Robes ( plural ) of Righteousness ? One thing I did find...

    That is just amazing, and again very intriguing. He can obviously do whatever He desires as long as it is within the Fathers will. I think it's wonderful because it isn't always Christians who are trying to tell others about the Lord do a convincing job, so to speak.

    Thank you for your kind words. When it first happened I just took it as it was, but once I got a Bible and began to fellowship with other believers, it became somewhat different in even my own mind. Not what had happened, but how ! Jesus coming for the whole world to see when it states He comes...

    For sure. I must say I was very surprised when I finally did get hold of a Bible ( approx 6 1/2 years after that fateful night ) and people would come and show me things in it, I had shared with them which He had answered me or told me about. It wasn't written in the sort of 'kindergarten' way...

    Why water into wine?

    Actually I could have sworn that this 'gentleman' was saying the other day that all the history on the catholic church was all lies, and now he wants you to study history?????

    You ALWAYS put a big smile on my face....I for one am grateful that you are one of those who is able to do what you just wrote there. There is one other person here, where this scripture came to mind , which certainly also applies to you in a big way :" Blessed are the peacemakers." Thank...

    I am aware that I have a different way of saying things at times, which is probably because English is not my first language, nor am I a very learned person...Things kind of just 'spill' out of my heart at times, but like everyone else I still have a ton to learn......Little by little, day by...

    I'm not sure how, I just find a lot of Christians see Him as someone very far off in heaven somewhere, who has had nothing to say or do for two thousand years, also a lot of them have a real problem understanding that when it says He was resurrected ( His body also ), it is a truth, not a...

    Thank you so much, and you are so right, lot of both hurt and scorn, but He always manages to get me smiling again, as do wonderful people such as yourself. You have a real 'presence' of peace, love and patience, which I don't often find. I have not read your account of your friend who was also...

    Yeah they had to have the written word, as they had no direct way to commune with God. At that time He was 'confined' to the inner sanctum inside the Holy of Holies, which is why the massive 'curtain' was rent from top to bottom once Jesus died. His other way was through those rare people who...

    I guess you're right, but being with Christ, one has a deep desire to connect with others in a loving way, but at times the way some respond, it's kind of like having a bucket of ice water thrown in ones face, not the most pleasant of things :)

    General Discussions For Non Christians

    Do non-Christians come onto this forum at all ? I have not been on here for very long ( although I did try being on here back in 2009 I think it was ).... I see a lot of discussion about Christianity on you-tube by both Christians and non-Christians, and I must say, some of them are very...

    I'm sorry, did I send that to you by mistake ? I certainly do know that you did not need to hear that, you are already in 'the know', thank The Lord........ :)

    Got a notice that you had replied to this, but you have written nothing....What am I missing?

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    Apologies for popping in here, but when I saw what you wrote there, a 'light bulb' happened in my own thinking, because seeing it written that way, I now understand much better why there is such dissension . The way I understood the Bible, Jesus received truth from the Father through His Holy...

    Forsaking the Love of God

    It is clear that you are very learned in relation to what has been written by various people since Jesus' death and resurrection, you have included things in your post I have never even heard of, but then I have not had any official Bible teaching, as such.... If you are at all interested I can...

    Nobody Can "Let" God Do Anything.

    I did experience tongues when a pastor and two other believers put hands upon me to receive the Holy Spirit at the beginning of the 1990's ( I was having a hard time trying to hide from them that I was laughing because it sounded so weird, I thought they were a little crazy ), then suddenly as...

    Nobody Can "Let" God Do Anything.

    Were you referring to me or to 'ByGrace' when you sent this? I have absolutely no idea what 'ad hominem' means.... Let me get this straight; You are allowed to write whatever you wish, but we are not? Is that what you are saying?

    Nobody Can "Let" God Do Anything.

    Sorry, what???? Tongues???? Had no idea that is what you were referring to. I'm afraid you have completely lost me here, I don't know what exactly it is that you are getting at. So sorry that what Jesus says to us 'bores' you so ( that is all? ), but please, there is no need to become all...
