    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    Is this the gospel according to CNKW3? You just contradicted yourself in your misleading statements that are based on nothing more than conjecture. The truth is that unless you can believe TO or INTO (Greek eis)...you can't be baptized INTO Christ. Is that logic too much? Do a proper...

    Drawing the wrong conclusions

    Do you mean saved by the power of God as being less than the power of an opinion about what Jesus did?

    Great falling away (is this happening now?)

    Gen. 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. I think this relates to the 2 great commandments. The greatest is to love God...and the lesser of these great commandments is to love others as...

    Amillenialism and Acts 1:11

    Let's go with that! :)

    Great falling away (is this happening now?)

    I see that the churches have opted for numbers rather than content...for quantity rather than quality. Success is being measured by worldly standards...more followers, more money. So from a worldly standpoint, there seems to be no problem. But with the natural build-up of religious adherents...

    Oneness

    Now this may come as a shock to modern ears...but we need to buy from the Lord the entrance into His kingdom. Is. 55:1 “Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. The difference between...

    Oneness

    Everyone is running around with Christ in them...a great potential for glory...but we should be seeking both individually and collectively to further enter into Him. Too many think of salvation is in one step...and are willing to claim the free stuff. But the free stuff is there to attract us to...

    What IS "sound doctrine".

    Sound doctrine leads to sound practice. No one is saved by sound beliefs...but by the actions these produce. If you study more about Paul's admonition to sound doctrine you realize he is talking about the practice of the truth. So if your doctrine doesn't lead to sound practice it isn't sound.

    Shiva the destroyer

    Which in turn reminds me of a story...a true story. A salesman was driving home one day from work and began to hear a ringing in his ear. He thought it was the tires or the engine so he turned up the radio. When he got home and stopped the car, the ringing persisted...all the way to the...

    The Eggnostic

    Maybe a little eggcentric at times.

    The Eggnostic

    This could be an eggzageration of the events. Are you sure things happened eggactly as you have eggsplained?

    John 13:35

    Just look at the tag to this forum..."loving people living community" Now that is a slogan. I'm sure many people come here not seeing the love nor the community. Such is the way of slogans. They are shallow and misleading. Better to be humble ...do the right things...but claim nothing.

    Humility

    Humility sees in a greater context. The proud man only sees himself in every context. A Christian...who knows God...is the humblest person of all. Since he is a constant awareness of the immensity of God. But we can become smug even in our knowledge of God. So we can't become too familiar with...

    God's Way's

    If we take a look at God's canvas we can see that there are things put together that seem to cancel each other out. But in God's world BOTH fit together. (Hence the importance of not trying to understand God's ways with the carnal mind) For example... Rom. 6:23 For the wages of sin is death...

    Crucified life

    Gal. 5:24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. There is a problem with the translations in this verse. The Greek does not imply that we are to crucify ourselves It goes like...."have had their flesh crucified" One can only enter into Christ...

    God's Way's

    Then there is the "foreignness" of God's character to consider. He is not like us. As His friends...or as we are learning to develop friendship with God.... He gets us into situations where we have real trouble with His ways. Are we sacrificial in our love? He is. And He wants us to learn from...

    God's Way's

    Now with everyone doing their own paintings...no two are alike. This tends to separate people based on style, opinions, inclinations etc... But this is not God's will. God wants us to all come to Him to be in His canvas. It is there that we become one....that we become members one of another...

    John 13:35

    I think many denominations come out of a revival. But the denomination itself is just the man-made attempt at preserving something that God did among His people long ago. There is a counsel of God that says...don't go back to Bethel, or Gilgal...IOW God moves on...don't try preserving what God...
