Hi VictoryinJesus, May God's will be done in and through each one of us, for His Name and Glory's sake. With love in Christ Jesus Chris

Hi VictoryinJesus, What the various denominations do with the money they receive is between them and their Lord. I have no way of knowing how they administer it. There is more than one way to 'give', it is not all about giving money. Time, comfort, love, and personal care can be given by...

'Likewise reckon ye also yourselves .. to be dead indeed unto sin, .... but alive unto God ...... through Jesus Christ our Lord. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, .. that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. .... Neither yield ye your members as instruments of...

@VictoryinJesus - #4,#9,#19 Hello :VictoryinJesus, You began by referring to the people's dependence upon the government for assistance and advice during this present crisis, and to the criticism of the way that the government is handling the crisis coming from the churches. You draw attention...

@VictoryinJesus - #4,#9,#19 Hello @VictoryinJesus I have printed off your posts to consider off-line, for I realise I have not fully understood what you have had to say, or responded adequately. Giving glory to God! Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello @VictoryinJesus, The lie of Ananias and Sapphira, was in claiming to have given all when they had not. Nothing more and nothing less. I did not refer to Ananias and Sapphira in my OP, it was you who mentioned them. I quoted Mark 4:19 in reply#3, because it appeared to relate to what I...

Hello @Dcopypmope, I know that ultimately God's wrath will fall on the disobedient, but now is the day of salvation, and the long-suffering of God is manifest, for it is not His will that any should perish, but that all should come to a knowledge of His saving grace. Praise His Holy Name...

Hi @VictoryinJesus, It was the fact that Ananias and Sapphira lied to the Holy Spirit that resulted in their deaths, wasn't it? and not that they had kept back part of the price. For they were under no obligation to give anything at all. It was required in those that gave to do so with a...

'For whom He did foreknow, He also did pre-destinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. (Romans 8:29) Hello Ronald, David said, 'As for me, I will behold Thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy...

'And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.' (Mar 4:19) Hello @Windmillcharge, At times of disaster, during times of war, and with the onslaught of a pandemic such as this, I would...

Hello there, I have been watching the news, and it is obviously largely taken up with the coronavirus, it's effect upon society, and the measures being taken to overcome the problem's associated with it. But I have left the television screen to come away by myself, for my mind is saturated by...

You may be interested in two links, which my grandson sent to me. They are not written from a Christian standpoint, but at least give two more perspectives to view this pandemic situation from. Covid-19 is nature's wake-up call to complacent civilisation | George Monbiot Fear of Covid-19 is a...

Forgive me @Giuliano, but my mind is tired, and I can't concentrate today, I gave what I could, and directed you to the Word of God, which alone can give the answers to the questions you asked. Thank you Within the love of Christ our Saviour, Chris

Hello @Giuliano, The first four questions concerning God's imputation of righteousness to those who put their trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as their Saviour and Lord, can be found in such passages as Romans 6, and related passages. It is all a matter of the reckoning of faith, by God and by...

@Paul Christensen @Doug Re: replies #63,#68,#69,#70 Hello there, It is good to remember that the truth concerning The Mystery, revealed by Paul in his letters written following the revelation of God concerning it, in Ephesians, Philippians and Colossians particularly, was written to BELIEVERS...

Hello @Giulianno, I have been trying to get online all day, and this is the first time I have made it. I acknowledge your questions, and will come back to answer when I can, but can't stay online now. Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

'Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:' (Colossians 1:26-27) Hello there, @Doug &...

Hello @Giuliano, Though only 12 years old, I was very conscious of my sin, and overwhelmingly conscious of the debt I owed to the Lord Jesus Christ who had died in my place. The word of God, concerning His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, had entered my heart, and taken root, and it's fruits were...

Hello @Giuliano, I was saved by hearing the gospel of the grace of God preached. In which I heard that I had sinned and come short of the glory of God, and that the wages of sin is death, that I needed a Saviour. I heard that God had provided a Saviour for me, in the person of His Son, the...
