    THE Gospel

    We are to be as God by walking with God. We are to be perfect as God is perfect. You will deny this of course. And that is because you are using only yourself as the measuring rod. You do not have Christ as your measure. At least not yet...We are to be as Jesus in this world. We are to be as the...

    Against Gnosticism

    Gnosticism is holding the truth...yes...but in unrighteousness. That means a person who focuses solely on the spiritual world while denying that there is a physical world to ALSO get things right in. It is a schizoid worldview...where the Spirit is all important (which it is) but without...

    THE Gospel

    But how does that pertain to you, personally? Knowledge about God is not salvation. The proof of salvation, personally, is to walk as Jesus walked. We can't take credit for believing in miracles or what Jesus has done for ALL men. But we can enter into Him by faith. THAT is salvation for the...

    Against Gnosticism

    Agreed. When we speak of actual encounter with God...this seems mystical to many and some of these will assume that this kind of "knowledge" of God is the same as Gnosticism. But Gnosticism is a heresy that REPLACES the truth with a fable. There is no real contact with God in Gnosticism...or...

    Against Gnosticism

    Real spiritual advancement changes us and the world around us through an actual power and perception. It is more than just in the mind...it is the actual presence of God being manifest to us by being in the Spirit. But there is a counterfeit to this whereby one convinces himself...or is...

    THE Gospel

    How do you know you are saved? I mean besides interpreting a bible verse to your own advantage. Oh, and besides indoctrination. I am supposing you mean a salvation based on a bad reading of Paul as opposed to the conditions for discipleship as per Jesus.

    Sound Doctrine

    I was raised Catholic. The RCC history is a mess wrapped in an enigma. Mary, for instance, was only recognized as "immaculate" in 1854. Reading the bible was forbidden even into the 20th century. And the mass was said in Latin for at least a millenia where no one could understand the rituals...

    How can an ancient text grow in accuracy? I'm done trying to talk to you.

    Non-Biblical Religious Nonsense

    Prov. 8:34 Blessed is the man that hears me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. 35 For whoso finds me finds life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD. Watch and pray.

    Sound Doctrine

    Not the RCC thing? The mass started in the dark ages. The early church had a real meal together. That's what "breaking bread" means. Check it out. The mass is not even remotely inspired by the early church practices.

    Long before Dispie thinking was invented. The MSS is almost identical to the DSS which is about 2,000 years old. The only differences are what scribes would make mistakes in. It's the same text... And your translation was made a few decades ago. (influenced by Dispie thinking) Why are you...

    Are there any informed objections to what I have posted? Anyone read Hebrew here?

    Do you even know what Dispensationalism is? Jesus came to the lost sheep of Israel. Do you understand that or not?

    Do you read Hebrew? יד וְהָיָה, לְמִקְדָּשׁ; וּלְאֶבֶן נֶגֶף וּלְצוּר מִכְשׁוֹל לִשְׁנֵי בָתֵּי יִשְׂרָאֵל, לְפַח וּלְמוֹקֵשׁ--לְיוֹשֵׁב, יְרוּשָׁלִָם. The MSS is the approved text of the Jews....who are the champions of dispie thinking.... yet it says both houses of Israel here. Why are you...

    very confused...no wonder doctrinal stances have no real impact on people. No understanding here. which are Jews and which are gentiles?> Use your dispensational logic...if you know it.

    Another gigantic lie in Dispensationalism is that the words of Jesus do not apply to Gentiles. Again, this is owing to the divisive nature of the doctrine. This time dividing people from the truth.
