    US supreme court strikes blow against LGBTQ+ rights with Colorado ruling

    When it comes to racism the Democrats are hypocrites and they will continue to exploit racism in their efforts to divide and conquer America. This is all just a big power struggle for them. They don't really care about equality anyway but only about POWER, MONEY AND CONTROL.

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    The apostle Paul said test yourselves to see if you are "in the faith" and not still in the faith. You need to read Hebrews 3:12 in context. Hebrews 3:8 - Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of trial in the wilderness, 9 Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me, and saw My...

    Globalists working towards dystopia, the world stage setting up for an engineered collapse.

    Yes, once it's ULTIMATELY said and DONE, the sheep (the righteous) will go into eternal life, but the goats (unrighteous) will go away into everlasting punishment.

    Globalists working towards dystopia, the world stage setting up for an engineered collapse.

    Bottom line when it's all said and done: "They get the gold mine, and we get the shaft!" Those kinds of people are the real enemy. I just hope and pray that "we the people" wake up before it's too late. What is their timeline for instituting a global reset? Is it still 2030? The way things are...

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    Here is a good warning, especially for "nominal" Christians. 2 Corinthians 13:5 - Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you—unless indeed you fail the test?

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    <1,,728,arrabon> originally, "earnest-money" deposited by the purchaser and forfeited if the purchase was not completed, was probably a Phoenician word, introduced into Greece. In general usage it came to denote "a pledge" or "earnest" of any sort; in the NT it is used only of that which is...

    What is : imputed Righteousness

    Amen! Romans 4:5 - But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness, 6 just as David also describes the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works:

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    Here is my testimony. I grew up attending the Roman Catholic Church and I was what you would call, "religious but not right with God." I came to receive Jesus Christ through faith several years ago on a late Saturday night. About a month prior to that, my mother-in-law had passed away and I was...

    2 Corinthians 1:22 - who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee. 2 Corinthians 5:5 - Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a guarantee. Ephesians 1:13 - In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of...

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    That's exactly what we see in Matthew 7:22-23. Head knowledge but not heart knowledge. John 17:3 - And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent (which is an intimate, experiential knowledge, found only in a relationship). The term...

    In regard to John 15:2, the branches that bear fruit and remain are genuine believers (like the remaining 11 disciples). The self-attached branches (cosmic connection) that bear no fruit and do not remain are not genuine believers (like Judas Iscariot). In John 15:2, Jesus mentions branches that...

    Salvation is not probation. Eternal life is not temporary life. Jesus is the door. He is not a revolving door.

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    The present tense of the word "justified" implies that these Galatians were contemplating justification by the law. They were getting sidetracked by legalistic teachers. "You who are trying to be justified by the law have fallen away from grace," but had they fully come to that place yet...

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    If the word 'sanctified' in Hebrews 10:29 is used to describe saved people who lost their salvation, then we have a contradiction because the writer of Hebrews in verse 10 said "sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all" (Hebrews 10:10) and in verse 14, we read...

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    I've come across more than a few people over the years who "professed" (key word) to have once been a Christian but are no longer are. When I asked these people how they became Christians in the first place I never got a satisfactory answer. ALL false religions and cults that promote salvation...

    Bible is finally banned in Utah elementary/middle schools for vulgarity and violence!

    Romans 3:23 - All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through our Lord Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8 - For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9...

    The Coming Global Mandates of Evildoers - Ready for the Harvest?!

    Evolution is not what I meant by biology, but I get your point. Ultimately the attack is against the Word of God.
