    The Very Beginning ~ Large Text

    What I find interesting about it Matt, is that Eve was deceived, but Adam was not, and it was his sin that lost life for his offspring.

    What is Pentecost all about?

    Like you brought out Ben, much can be said about it, it has played in very significantly in the history of Jehovah's people. Matter of fact it was on that day in the year of 33 that God put into force the new covenant.

    The Bible, and interesting fact.

    It has been said, that the Bible is the only book that when you examine it, the Author examines you! I never really thought about it, but found that interesting, how bout you?

    My Father's House

    One thing that God is very serious about, as are most humans because of being made in God's image, is His name. Interestingly, after the 6th plague He put on Egypt He told Pharaoh through Moses/Aaron that the reason He has not effaced them from the earth was to have His name declared in all the...

    I'll take milk?

    I fail to understand the point of this post Bob, you definitely know what Paul was talking about, and you accurately stated what it meant. You as well pointed out that one is expected to grow in the faith, yet you said many words as if you didn't actually agree with that. I am definitely in...

    I'll take milk?

    May I ask what is His name Robert? Romans 10:13 points out if we call on His name, we shall be saved, was that referring to God or Jesus sir?

    What is your take on Hebrews 10:24,25 Arm?

    Ground Work

    Did you know Mike that the entire theme of the Bible involves that Kingdom? In fact Jesus stated it was the primary reason he came to the earth. Interesting huh? Many people are unaware of that.

    First Seed 2

    You know Michael, that was the very first prophecy in the Bible, and the entire Bible is actually based on that. We have seen many accomplishments in the fulfilling of that passage, and we believe that the next big step in it's fulfillment is very near upon us.

    First step of everlasting life

    Hi Ron, of course that is way down the line from first hearing about God sir. No doubt it is an early step of learning about God and Jesus. I think since so many can quote it, very early on most learn John 3:16, and recall learning it very early in their becoming a Christian.

    I'll take milk?

    Keep in mind maam, the growth of a Christian is eternal. Even though there are mature ones in God's congregation, we are all still infants in the truth. Most of us will not come to absolute truth until the end of the millennial reign of Christ, and none of us will ever come to know all that God...

    First step of everlasting life

    Yes sir, my service to God has been very comparable. I wonder that as well, your post reminded me of Romans 1:20 that even if we had never been taught about Him, how His very creation should reveal His existence to us. I know so many do not know Him, and it is hard to accept that upon the return...

    Ground Work

    Yes sir, that is a very good one no doubt. In fact, I lived that as well. Perhaps you too. I would imagine that many of us can relate to that. I left my God Jehovah from 87 to 97, and I really didn't serve Him wholeheartedly till around the year 2000, but my faith has been strong ever since...

    Ground Work

    No doubt all his teachings are precious to us sir, but his example definitely shows us what the world becomes like when the the Kingdom replaces satan's system. How we look forward to, and pray for that Kingdom to come Mat 6:10 I will say that my favorite scripture is found at Ecc 12:13, kinda...

    John 1:1 looked at HONESTLY!

    Yes sir, you answered correctly, John 8:58 was not about Jesus being God, rather it was his answer to their question of how he could have possibly known Abraham. Jesus was well aware of Abraham as he did exist prior to coming to earth Jn 3:13 Thomas knew Jesus as well as Jesus' God Jehovah, as...

    New Knowledge

    With the establishment of the new covenant, and Jesus assigning Paul a great role as a traveling overseer of the forming congregations, Pauls letters were directed to those in the congregations that were called to be "in Christ"; "Saints"; "Holy Ones"; "Born Again", all of which are various...

    I'll take milk?

    Sadly when Paul penned that, some in the congregation had stopped progressing in the truth. It is really easy to understand, Paul makes it clear in this account Arm: (Hebrews 5:11-14) . . .We have much to say about him, and it is difficult to explain, because you have become dull in your...

    What is your favorite teaching of Jesus, Mike?

    First step of everlasting life

    Yes sir you are exactly correct Dan. That is where the divisions come from. Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion, because of free will. And no one can force anyone to believe, Christians are seed planters, as you know it is God who makes those seeds of truth root in a heart. You...

    First step of everlasting life

    From my understanding, few will attain to salvation. We live because God gave us life, those of us who will live eternally is living exactly for the reason you state, because of salvation, that is given to those who receive it through the ransom sacrifice of Jesus.
