    Ephesians 2:8-9 - a grace by faith salvation

    Yes sir, I fully agree. I am really interested in how it plays out in all honesty. The Bible indicates at the return of Jesus most will be executed, I can only teach what the Bible reveals, but it does throw up some red flags in my mind.

    "This Generation" declared by Jesus.

    Do you realize that was a two-fold prophecy Scott? It had a fulfillment with the destruction of Jerusalem crica 66-70 CE, but will have a much larger fulfillment soon, encompassing the entire earth.

    Which translation do you think is the best English translation?

    I say he is a god, or god as the verse literally stated "and theos was the Logos" and god was the Word. So then why do you accept your versions rendering of God, and yet not accept Jehovah's name as it states?

    For those who think Christ is not God.

    Do you think there is a more diverse word that Shalom Joe? I think it would be hard pressed to come up with one.

    YHWH, Elohim, and Theos

    A guy could miss out on studying the less important things Byrd. Most of us have limited time, I know vowels exist, that is good enough for me.

    For those who think Christ is not God.

    Jehovah is the only creator sir, the only one in the Bible with that title. His first and only solo creation was Jesus, who became His master worker, and assisted in all other creation. Why do you teach Jesus is called the only-begotten of Jehovah, a title that is exclusive to him.

    Is drinking sin?

    Yes sir, many are deceived, as satan is very good at what he does, but for Christians that is an impossibility as God will not allow it. He limits satan in what he is allowed to do to His people.

    Power to become

    Nope, it didn't help those in Mat 7:21 sir. You might take note as well, you either get life or death, that was what God said, He does not torture people in hell. But if you are correct and He does, I will be there right beside you as I will not worship a worthless god.

    For those who think Christ is not God.

    Although I shouldn't be surprised, I honestly did think that you would attempt to answer it.

    Ministers and Stewards - Judgement Not a Prerogative of Man

    I may be misreading you Matt, but Paul most likely was martyred over 30 yrs before John. We believe John was still alive in 98 and penned his gospel in that year sir, something that I just learned a couple of weeks back.

    Fear and anxiety in the bible

    No doubt most of us fear what's ahead sis. None of us really want to die, but I am hoping that I do before the tribulation. You and I know what a privilege it would be to survive through it, and we know that many will, but it will be far from pretty. Jehovah is going to allow man to rule until...

    The LORD Is My Rock = II Samuel 22;1-9

    May I ask, who is the LORD maam?

    Confusion of the "sign" gifts?

    Good post Grace, I would say you hit the nail on the head.

    Power to become

    We cannot choose to be born again Be, but we do have the option of choosing life. Most Christians are not born again, but will be every bit as happy as those who were called sir.

    THE WORLDS HATRED - Jesus's response to Judas (Not Iscariot)

    If a person has not been persecuted because of their faith today, best to wonder why Matt. It truly gives us joy, in a way, yes in a way as none of us like to be persecuted, but we can rejoice in being persecuted for Jesus' name. 1 Pet 4:14

    Ephesians 2:8-9 - a grace by faith salvation

    Prime example of why the Bible has to be taken as a whole Chris. Faith does not guarantee life, nor does works, both are involved by capability. Jesus told some zealous workers that had done many powerful things in his name that they were workers of lawlessness, why? Because they chose to...

    Is drinking sin?

    Same as before, drinking is not a sin, and no one has to drink. The Chief agent and perfecter of our faith did, but there is no commandment that we have to, unless of course we are in the covenant arrangement, and if we are then every passover we would partake.

    "This Generation" declared by Jesus.

    Christ was the first risen to immortality, after his enthronement sometime the first resurrection occurred Rev 20:6; and like your verse finishes, and mentioned at 1 Thes 4:17 as well those who remain to his coming will meet him in the air. What many call the rapture sir. Your passage is...

    Who Really, Are the Jews?

    I agree Davy, none of us can be absolutely sure who they are, but we certainly are able to identify the Gentiles, the other sheep that is in Jesus' fold. In fact he told us we would be able to identify them by their fruits. The little flock of Israelites will have the same fruits, but it is...

    YHWH, Elohim, and Theos

    YHWH is easy to research Byrd, it is God's literal name as written in the original writings recorded for us first in Genesis 2:4 and occurs more than any other name in Scripture throughout the Bible. Every single translator of English versions who translated the Divine Name as a name translated...
