'Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus: Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who hath blessed us with all...

Hello @dave, 'And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him...

Oh, @dave, I have no doubt that I am a sinner - saved by God's amazing Grace. I have a body of humiliation now, while in this life, but when I am resurrected to be with Him for ever, I shall have a new body, a spiritual body, no longer bound by the flesh and it's ways. Praise God! In Christ...

Hello @dave, I am sorry not to have understood you. :) All Israel shall be saved, for God will forgive their sins, and deliver them. Blindness has happened to Israel, that the purpose of God be fulfilled. The veil is over their eyes now, but that will not always be so. I have no idea what...

Hello again, @dave, Yes, Praise God! In believing God's Word concerning His Son the Lord Jesus Christ, His Person and His Work: the believer has 'obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered unto them'. He has passed from death to life, been brought out of darkness into...

Hello again, Beloved of God, You refer to the following passage of Scripture, and especially the words highlighted:- 'The centurion answered and said, "Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I am a man under...

Hello @dave, (beloved of God and precious), Yes, I was referring to:- 'For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. And so all...

Hello @farouk, What I am referring to is:- 'But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.' (Romans 6:22-23)...

Hello @dave, Warning of these things is necessary and important, and, as you have said, taking note of them is vital, especially as the day of Christ draws near. Yet that does not negate the fact that God's promises are sure, and that the gift of life will not be taken away from us. We can...

Thank you, @user, As you can see, by my previous post, I am trying already to derail the subject of this thread, but I did enjoy it. :) Your use of this Scripture is very appropriate, and I thank you for it. It does illustrate the point very well. What an important lesson it teaches! Thank...

'And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days. And ye shall keep it a feast unto the LORD seven days in the year. It shall be a...

Hi @Enoch111, Yes, I agree, yet I have known of those whose main concern has been the world, while their home and family have been neglected. In Christ Jesus Chris

Thank you, Nancy, It hardly warrants a thread, yet it seemed worth commenting on. I like your new avatar by the way. Love in Christ Jesus Chris

[Leviticus 7:26; 23:3, 14, 21 & 31, and Numbers 35:29] Hi there, Reading Leviticus, and the Lord's instruction to the children of Israel regarding the feasts, I was struck by the reiteration of the words, 'in your dwellings'. In relation too, to the keeping of the Sabbath day, and the...

Hi @Willie T, I don't know how to answer that. Just as I have no answer for that of Sovereign Grace. o_O I take Levothyroxine for an under-active thyroid, if I stopped taking that I would probably not have to concern myself about ending up in an old people's home, for I would pop-my-clogs...

Hello @Soverign Grace, I can sympathise with the thoughts you express here. However, we keep people alive with medication, who otherwise would not have lived to the age they have. In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello @jshii, At 71 years I can empathise with your desire to avoid that 'Willow Creek' option. :) I too, like Paul, want to be 'present' with my Lord (2 Corinthians 5:8; Philippians 1:23). However that, as Paul knew, required the Lord's return. That was His preferred choice, which was...

'Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but Thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for Thou hast cast all my sins behind Thy back.' (Isaiah 38:17) Hello @jshiii, Would you please define what you perceive a 'Fundamentalist' to be? and why you believe you are...

Hello @brakelite, I thank you for entering these extracts, for I am totally ignorant about the UN, it's formation and purpose. It has given me the desire to search these things out for myself. Discussing the events taking place within the UK, with my grandson recently, he told me of a tactic...

With respect, @Zachery, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 has been covered in a previous post. You did not accept it then, so you are unlikely to accept it if I reiterate it. However, what can be lost is the reward for faithfulness and enduring unto the end: but not LIFE, for that is a gift of God, and...
