Hey Stranger... I actually believe Peter was in Rome. Not for as long as those of the RCC believe, and I certainly believe he didn't establish the Church at Rome. I haven't followed the 80+ pages of this thread all the way through, so if there is something you want me to view on this topic...

Don't let me get away with it either!

I understand what you are saying but don't comphrend or grasp it. I was never in a legalistic situation. Doctrine is not synonymous with legalism. It appears that legalists beat you over the head with the term. But that doesn't mean all doctrine is legalism. I believe the Bible and all...

Matthew 28:18 KJV And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Jesus said he had all power.

My take on doctrine is that it is seriously important and it is equally as important that it be in truth. Everyone has a doctrine if we call doctrine a system of beliefs. Even if you believe we must just love one another and not bicker about what is or isn't truthful in the bible or in a...

QUOT Hebrews 6 is talking a bit more then simple repentance from dead works. 6:1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, [2] Of the doctrine of baptisms...

Never mind... Found out what you meant in another thread.

Aspen Can you define dualism in the context you are speaking about for me? Thanks

Hmmm.... Well, i don't recall reading about we can't hear his voice and live. Did I miss that in the Bible? You have opened a can of worms with that statement! But I actually agree that the Church (especially its leader) is important in hearing and even seeing God. That leadership must be...

That would be a great thread idea: the difference between knowledge, understanding and wisdom.

If you want to be humble (as we all should) first be humble to God. There isn't a person on this board who would ever admit they aren't humble to God. Myself included. However, if you do not acknowledge truth about God, you aren't humbling yourself to God.

Sounds reasonable. No doubt there are angels that guard. In a sense Lot had two. Exodus 23 also speaks of somewhat a guardian angel. Even Jesus said he had a league of angels ready to help him. Peter had angels break out of prison.. .. Whether or not we have personal guardian angels who...

Romans 8 says we are MORE than conquerors through him that loved us. What does it mean to be more than a conqueror? I can only think that its because its already been conquered for us. Love, Jesus and I will add truth....

I have very little scripture to back this up... But I believe Satan and his minions aim towards Christians. Afterall, why bother with them if they don't believe and technically are already on your side? Overall, I don't think Satan can conquer a real Christian... But yea... He can seriously do...

Wow... I don't really have a problem with Sword's approach. I think he could elaborated as to why. But maybe he just wanted to get the ball rolling first. I've done that as well, though now I would rather give a little backup info.

I suppose they could. When Peter tried to rebuke Jesus for his telling them he must be crucified, Jesus said get behind me Satan. But he said it to Peter, or at least responded to what Peter said.

What would be that reason? Where do you want to go with this? I don't always remember my dreams, but the last ones I do remember were in colr.

I have great respect for farmers and all working men and women of like trade.

I have actually been thinking and trevailing about this. That is, that you are having these debates. They aren't happening here on this board, I presume. I haven't heard their side. I'm sorry, but I can't comment. I can say something about legalism in that I can be somewhat of one. I...

I'd like to say a few things I believe about the Bible for discussion: 1. I believe the Bible is God's "user's manual" for us. Its basically our guide on how to live our life and prepare for the hereafter. Its good instruction for our flesh-man and our spiritual man. Key scripture: 2 Tim...
