    Why Christians Disagree

    We disagree because long ago when the Church was first established and filled with strong, faithful Christians who were willing to die rather than disobey their beloved Savior, it was already prophesied that a sinister evil would creep in among the church and take it over, forcing those who...

    The Proof of Salvation

    "Hereby we do know that we know Him if we keep His commandments. He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not His commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in Him." - 1 John 2:3-4 "Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law." - Romans 13:10 The way we...

    What Christ Did For Us

    "Christ was treated as we deserve, that we might be treated as He deserves. He was condemned for our sins, in which He had no share, that we might be justified by His righteousness, in which we had no share. He suffered the death which was ours, that we might receive the life which was His...

    WHY ARE MANY OF US STILL HERE?

    The Bible actually says it's YOU that hates the brethren: "Hate not thy brother in thine own heart. Thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy brother and not suffer sin upon him." Leviticus 19:17 John the Baptist called them "brood of vipers". Paul called them "bewitched". Peter called them "dogs and...

    WHY ARE MANY OF US STILL HERE?

    When I started 21 years ago, they told me never mess around with the "3 C's": Coin (from payphones), Copper, and Cuties (I substituted "cuties" for what they really said). Today, the payphones are pretty much all gone, I hardly ever splice any copper, and my boss is a clueless female who knows...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Did you know that before the Jesuits introduced Preterism's Antiochus Epiphenes as the Little Horn, it was not interpreted by anyone as such?

    yes, difference between admiration and lust

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    We seem to agree on many things despite our differences about the Little Horn

    WHY ARE MANY OF US STILL HERE?

    You liberal aka progressives aka communists just love throwing the "h" word around, don't you? BTW, I'm still waiting for an answer to my two questions: Does Satan force us to sin? Does Satan barricade the "way of escape" out of temptation? I expect that the courts of heaven are cheering when I...

    WHY ARE MANY OF US STILL HERE?

    Unless you're one of the lucky ones who'll be born twice but alive when Jesus comes, well hey!

    WHY ARE MANY OF US STILL HERE?

    To say the letter of the law is gone begs the question: is it possible for a man to keep the spirit of the law and not lust after the unmarried woman with which he's engaging in full blown sexual intercourse? Of course not. If we're keeping the spirit of the law, we're by default keeping the...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Agreed. You may not accept that the Little Horn in both its phases is the Roman Empire/Papacy, but there's no way it's Antiochus the Chump. I've given you several solid reasons in post 439 for why he is disqualified. The Holy Spirit says, "Come now, let us reason together." There's nothing...

    WHY ARE MANY OF US STILL HERE?

    Death by 1,000 cuts seems to be the Christian's lot in this life.

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    That's assuming the Antichrist has yet to arise, assuming the Antichrist is a single evil person who will arise and sit in a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem, assuming that that rebuilt temple is actually the "temple of God". However, Paul said there was a "restrainer" preventing the rise of this...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Everytime I hear the word "symbology", I can't help but think of this scene back when I was a Hollywood watching heathen.

    WHY ARE MANY OF US STILL HERE?

    I heard a preacher say one time we're either born twice and die once or we're born once and die twice.

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    No, friend, you can't even get up out of your corner, much less go any distance with the truth that exposes Antiochus as having nothing to do with the Little Horn. I've shown you that Antiochus Epiphenes IV was mocked by his contemporaries as "Epimenes" which means "Madman". I've shown you...

    WHY ARE MANY OF US STILL HERE?

    The letter of the law and the spirit of the law only seem to be at odds in Scripture because a crucial element is often overlooked: our motivation. Those motivated not by love for God and man will seek God's acceptance by fulfilling the letter, but Jesus came to show us that His acceptance of us...

    WHY ARE MANY OF US STILL HERE?

    Humans can't obey the Ten Commandments? Really? Does Satan put a gun to our heads and force us to break them? Does Satan somehow barricade our God-provided "way of escape" out of temptation? See, true Christians are courageous enough to admit that all sin is a choice, and if we love Jesus...
