Joe, I appreciate your ideas, thanks for sharing. Another question though if you don't mind, do you see salvation as being eternal? Please understand I do know the concepts you present yet I do not embrace them. Most people who hold similar views you do deny the eternality of condemnation...

Prentis, I am beginning to think our posts are falling on deaf ears. No one here is self justifying. It is the word of God that tells us we are justified. It seems to me you have no confidence in the scriptures and you are attempting to strip everyone else of their confidence.

Dragonfly, I have some verses that might help with the definition of faith. Mark 25:36 36 But Jesus, overhearing what was being spoken, said to the synagogue official, “Do not be afraid any longer, only believe.” Faith is not afraid. Mark 11:24 23 “Truly I say to you, whoever says to this...

Joe, Perhaps I could have used appear instead of stand. It seems you and I view the scriptures differently. I do not know of anyone being able to receive the Holy Spirit after judgement. The every knee will bow verse again shows when Jesus Christ is revealed and has judged the wicked it will...

If it is you choose to not have confidence in God and His word that is your prerogative. By having faith in Jesus Christ and the teachings given in the Holy Bible we can have confidence at the judgement. 1John 4 15 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in...

Hebrews 9:27 27 And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgement When the wicked stand before God in all His glory they will have no choice but to say "Jesus is Lord". It will be proven to them, yet God does not seek those who demand signs and wonders but...

Romans 5 1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, I am not justifying myself by believing what the scriptures teach.

2 Thess 1:5 2Th_1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: 2Th_1:11 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure...

Johnny, Psalms 8 4 What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him? 5 Yet You have made him a little lower than God, And You crown him with glory and majesty! 6 You make him to rule over the works of Your hands; God does not need anything He is self...

I am the one claiming to have no insecurities because I believe. My salvation is reliant on the word of God being faithful and true and Him doing His work through me as scripture promises. If I were to listen blindly to what you are saying I would think Noah might not build the ark. I would...

Romans 10 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, 9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10 for with the...

I would like to start with your 1 Tim verse. The better translation is here: 3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. This directly coincides with scripture as is shown here. Ezek 18:23-24 23...

It sounds like a great time was had by all. That is Awesome! BTW...What does UHCA stand for?

Summa, Honestly curious, do you believe all of those books to be the inspired word of God? Why or why not?

Joe, 2 Cor 5:8 John 12:26 Phil 1:23 We have confidence that when we fall into that great slumber we will be present with Christ. To the OP..... I have no idea sorry, hats off to Webers if that was all calculated alone though. I think those estimates are quite conservative though.

Trust is the same as faith. Trusting God is believing what He promises. Trusting God is surrendering your life to Him.

Neo, You are mistaken. Jesus claimed there are those with a different father. John 8:44 To speak of salvation it is to confess and believe. Romans 10:13 Believers make up the body of Christ. 1 Cor 12:14 Scripture teaches that there are churches of Christ. Romans 16:16, 1 Cor 14:33, Gal 1:22 I...

How many times does God need to say who are children are? You still have not addressed this verse I posted.

I am a part of that very Church that you are because I believe. I am united by the Holy Spirit with all believers! I am seated in the Heavens with Christ because I believe. Jesus Christ is my Shepherd because I believe. If it is you have a different gospel please tell me, but to be a part of...
