Wow, I sure see that exactly opposite of you Rob, but at any rate we all sin and fall short of the glory of God. Rom 3:23. The sad thing is, if you are correct in your understanding that means like Adam, we chose to sin.

I hope you are correct Joe, however I cannot see it by Scripture. May I ask your understanding of Acts 20:29,30; and how that has revealed itself today? Had to go back and edit my friend, messed up and called you sir again. ;)

Future sir.

No sir, although some may interpret it as such, remember the Bible must be taken as a whole, it does not contradict.

There is always hope, and there is a guarantee that some will be granted everlasting life Mat 7:14. The sad truth is however, unless Jesus is wrong of course is that most will choose the road to destruction v 13. Many think they are saved right now, and if Jesus came right now perhaps that would...

Hi Amad, been a while since we conversed my friend, nice hearing from you sir. Rev 20:5 is an interesting verse because the final part of it is actually referring to the next verse not that one, I wonder why Bible translators break it there. The anointed of verse 6 are the first resurrection...

Yes sir, in fact that title applies to both Jehovah and Jesus, and to many others as well, but Jesus to us is the primary Lord 1 Cor 8:5,6

That one is too easy sir, as it is actually self explanatory, he seen Jesus and not the Father, same way as seeing a "chip off the old block".

Although the Church is made up of many individuals, they are one body that work together for the whole Vicky. Not all have the same function, yet many functions have to be done for any organization to be ran and function (Praxis). If you think of God's Kingdom as a government perhaps that will...

It would be very difficult for a new disciple to be able to recognize false doctrine Joe, but of course as time and knowledge of a growing Christian progresses it will be much easier. It is true that we reject false doctrine, but our goal is to help others to know God better, so in our rejection...

Not really on topic, but we agree with your understanding that Matthews gospel was written first. We even believe it was originally written in Hebrew, do you believe that as well Mike?

Hi Smile, welcome to the forum sir. All perfect beings are "one" by being sinless. Jesus said he and his Father are one at Jn 10:30. They are both spirit beings, they both reside in heaven, they both will live eternally. Some differences are that although it is impossible for us to understand...

What is the gospel? That could be talked on perhaps eternally Joe, in a nutshell it is this, what is actually the theme of the Bible: The vindication of Jehovah’s sovereignty and the fulfillment of His purpose for the earth by means of His Kingdom under Christ, the promised offspring That is...

God has one name maam, you mentioned it early in your post. Do you know of any other name for Him?

I believe God is just as well sir, that is why we teach: (Romans 6:7) . . .For the one who has died has been acquitted from his sin. And that all with the exception of those who sinned against the holy spirit will receive a resurrection, and will be brought to perfection and will be judged after...

In your original post about Christians being fools, Paul used it in a good way was the point of the passage, we are "fools" by worldly wisdom. But in context, who was the real fools, the believers, or the wise ones of the world.

I have wondered about that myself sometimes as well Joe, I am not exactly sure how to do what you are saying, I thought it was automatic when you posted a reply.

Most of those things do not apply to define salvation sir. Salvation is simply receiving the gift of everlasting life. Nothing more, nothing less. Like I said for most Christians it is yet a millennium away Rev 20:5

I am sorry maam, you used the term invited, that is what I meant by being called. Those who go to heaven have been selected. Since you like doing further research lets look at one verse Paul used to them he said: (1 Corinthians 1:2) . . .to the congregation of God that is in Corinth, to you who...

Amen Joe, faith without works is certainly dead in itself.
