I can totally agree with you that far far too many are way to eager to accuse others of heresy. The letter in Revelation to the church at Pergamum is a lesson in that very thing. KJV Revelation 2:12-16 12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the...

You know Jay, I couldn't care less if I were to be labeled a heretic by the church... Any church. But I believe absolutely that truth matters. So I'm not going to be so arrogant to suppose that I couldn't possibly be wrong in the above assessment. That's what my current thinking is. If you have...

It is not up to the church to decide what the scriptures teach. It is up to the church to obey what the scriptures teach.

The position that it is of no consequence what men believe is one of Satan's most successful deceptions. He knows that the truth, received in the love of it, sanctifies the soul of the receiver; therefore he is constantly seeking to substitute false theories, fables, another gospel. From the...

Okay, so the above answered B. You were asking about A. But is not eternal life included in 'anything" above? KJV John 11:25-26 25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: 26 And whosoever liveth and believeth...

@bbyrd009 KJV Luke 11:5-12 5 And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves; 6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him? 7 And he from within shall answer...

Here's how I see the gospel. Jesus said “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16 Jesus told Nicodemus that God “gave” His Son. This is the everlasting gospel. If God did not...

Yeah, I got that. And just to be clear, I am a trinitarian... But not in the way the creeds demand.

The fact that Jesus Himself promised A. eternal life...aka conditional immortality... And B. That He and the Father would be more delighted to answer prayers than a loving earthly father. Both fairly good reasons to expect both don't you think... That's the meaning of faith after all... Trust...

Sadly, your necessary development of the trinity formula also included the slaughter of millions of Christians in the Gothic, Heruli, Vandal, and Visigoth nations who were, at least according to their enemies, Arian. It is doubtful that those conciliar declarations would have survived had it...

Lol, yes. It's called draining the swamp. Now where have I heard that before???

Duchesne who was quoted... Was a Catholic priest and historian... The quote came from one of his books Early History of the Christian Church, 3 vols., John Murray, London, 1923. Alfred Newman cited above was a Baptist historian who helped found the southwestern Texas theological seminary...

An interesting text when contextualized with the church of Rome. The church of Thyatira is a type of the medieval church of the dark ages, having within it the spirit of Jezebel who led Israel in to sun worship...Baal... KJV 2 Kings 9:22 22 And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said...

That's a very good question. What kind of character has a sinner developed during his probation on earth? Has he developed a love for righteousness, or a love for selfishness? Has he developed a love for the company of those who love Jesus, or a love for the company of those who hate Jesus...

Amen. Indeed we do. It will be 45 years for my wife and I next year, which duration I can only describe as miraculous.

Hell is only for those that God knows would hate heaven.

Scripture was said to be the model and basis for faith, but the Catholic Church in the 'magisterium' was reserved the sole authority to interpret and teach that scripture. Their word in other words was the final authority, not scripture at all. In requiring it's members to obey the magisterium...

That is wonderful John. All the very best and congratulations. Have a great day with the family.

I can agree with the gospel part, depending on what version... Serious doubts about the 'notes'.
