I have had discussions with her in the past. She talks a lot about God, and being a child of God, but never about being Christian or the need for Jesus Christ to be saved. And on her avatar she doesn't wear the label Christian. Just ask her. Stranger

You do understand that 'Miss Hepburn' is not a Christian. Stranger

Dave L. I believe I answered your last two posts twice. But, now matter, some additional information is added. Stranger

Again, the true Israel is always believers only. The true Church is always believers only. So, again, no. Jesus is not saying that. He said 'upon this rock I will build my Church'. What had gone before was not the Church of Jesus Christ. Stranger

Reread my post (#35). I never said the Holy Spirit was not active in the Old Testament. What I said was the Church has the Holy Spirit in the Person of the resurrected Christ. This was not possible until Pentecost. (John 7:38-39) Do you understand what I just said? We who are...

No, Jesus 'said' upon this rock I will build my church'. Future. Well, the Israel of God was believers only. So? You have plenty of unbelievers in the visible Church today. Stranger

No, they are not. Stranger

Appreciate this testimony. I would like to make one point. It is common in Christianity to believe we have been adopted into the family of God. But that is not so. We have been born into the family of God, not adopted. We are 'real' sons and daughters of God. We, who have placed faith in...

Again, the Greek word for assembly or calling out does not make a body the Body of Christ. It depends on which body is being addressed. I do believe Jesus is speaking to the Church here which He stated in (Matt. 16:18) was still future. Israel had rejected Him and His attention was now to the...

Again, chapter and verse. As I said already. They did not have the indwelling Holy Spirit, that we the Church have. (Ps.51:11) We have the Holy Spirit as the Spirit of the resurrected Christ. (John 7:38-39) (Rom. 8:9) Stranger

Chapter and verse. Do you want me to have to look it up? of course I can. But of course you should provide the address. Stranger

The Holy Spirit coming upon the Old Testament saints could leave just as easily as He came. They did not have the indwelling Holy Spirit we have. They did not have the Spirit of Christ. Stranger

We have already went over that. Repetition means nothing if you did not prove your case before. And you didn't. Stranger

No, they are not. That Spirit which indwells the believers from (Acts 2) to the Rapture is the Spirit of Christ. This makes those of that time part of His Spirit exclusively. The Body of Christ. Israel is not the Body of Christ. Stranger

Oh please, you hurt my feelings. Make me feel...so bad. iqct Stranger

The definition of a 'church' as a congregation means nothing. Yes there was a congregation of believers in the wilderness. That congregation, however was not the Body of Christ. That congregation was Israel. Stranger

No, you are speaking of Israel, not the Church. The Church did not begin, could not begin until (Acts 2). Stranger

I have no regard for it because God has no regard for it. huh? Fashion that. gspw It is God's land so there is no stealing it. He gave it to Israel. muslims have just been squatters. Just like they are wherever they go. Squatters. Just like you. So, get your rug, get your koran...

The Church has never been Israel in God's mind. Only in yours and others. Stranger

The only way of salvation is through faith in Jesus Christ. Yes. But though that is the only way of salvation does not mean that all believers are placed in the same body of the believing. Israel is one body. The saints prior to Israel, from Adam to Moses, are another body. They are not...
