    Is smoking a sin?

    Actually Marksman, it has sent a great deal there early according to statistics anyway. Of course one would have to know what hell actually is sir. It is not the torturous eternal volcano of fire that many promote.

    The First Condition of salvation

    Interesting Wrangler, I consider that the last, as they were judged, obviously one would have to know the will of God before they can do it.

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    We teach that he went back to sit at Jehovah's right hand which would be for a period of time sir. Are you familiar with the prophecy found in Daniel chap 4 about the tree that would be cut down and banded for 7 times? That was about God's throne. Nebuchadnezzar was allowed to be King over God's...

    Is smoking a sin?

    No sir, as the Bible points out Jehovah has had witnesses even before He created humans. True there was a period of apostasy where Christianity seemed to die out, but the Bible assures us that when the last days started His people would be regathered Isa 2:2,3; Micah 4:1-5

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    Yes sir I agree it will be the most horrible thing that has ever happened to mankind, however the Bible clearly teaches there will be survivors Mat 24:22; Rev 7:9,14

    Salt

    Like you said maam, excessive. Strange how things necessary for life can become deadly with overindulgence. In 60's language, I dig salt Heart. I use lots of it, which likely contributes to high blood pressure, but tolerable. I tried to cut down on it, but life can be bland without it. Thanks...

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    We believe the people will be marked (judged) during the tribulation as well.

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    We agree Matt, that Jesus is the now reigning King, however we disagree on when he received the crown.

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    I fully agree that you must love Jehovah and Jesus, and you show this by your obedience to them 1 Jn 5:3 The Bible identifies the faith sir, beyond a reasonable doubt. There will be no excuses upon Jesus' return. We teach Jesus received the crown in 1914, I believe that is true, obviously you...

    Is smoking a sin?

    Did I? Perhaps you might show me where? Accusations are synonymous. It is true I think you are wrong, therefore by the same token you believe I am wrong. Accuse is a much harsher word, but likewise you are accusing me to the same degree. My wishes is to have a scriptural discussion by posting a...

    Salt

    Hi Ziggy, we are composed of the elements of the earth, we are what we eat. Salt makes up a portion of us, and in fact we need it for survival. God's intricate systems that all work together for life of all His creatures is amazing. The more one studies it, the more we see the evidence of a...

    Is smoking a sin?

    May I ask if Isa 43:10 was written before that sir? Who was the first witness of Jehovah? Rev 1:5 gives the answer.

    Is smoking a sin?

    Some say it is a sin, others do not Bob. Me personally I say it is a sin, a disregard for the sanctity of life, as well as a very unloving thing to do to others. I cannot imagine that Jehovah or Jesus would approve of it, but of course time will reveal whether it is or isn't a sin.

    'I Must be about My Father's Business' (Luke 2:49)

    That is very true maam, I was kind of hoping that you might reveal our assignment as Christians however. Do we have an assignment?

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    Jesus did not return in 1874 sir. Matter of fact, he has not returned as of yet. We do believe however that he was enthroned as King in 1914 as I have stated. Many of other faiths believe we are deep into the last days as well, but likely are unaware of what event that signifies.

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    The real truth is, either Jesus was enthroned as King and we entered into the last days in 1914, or not. Time will reveal the accuracy of that. I fail to see why that is a critical issue, unless of course, and I know some like this, one wants to jump on the Ark at the last minute. Many call...

    The First Condition of salvation

    Every single individual that will receive salvation is through the grace of God sir, no one is deserving, as all of us have sinned. Even a baby who dies in the womb is guilty through inherited sin from the parents. Most people should be aware of that. It is critical that one should realize that...

    The First Condition of salvation

    The very first step of salvation is found at Jn 17:3 Bob. Before one would even think about repentance, he would have to come to know Jehovah and Jesus and their requirements. All Christians take in knowledge, and then correct things as they learn about them. I have always loved watching the...

    'I Must be about My Father's Business' (Luke 2:49)

    Hi Chris, clearly believing in Jehovah and Jesus are part of God's will. What else would you say doing His will would encompass maam?
