    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Yes, I know 'redeem' means something is paid for. What is paid for is sin. Those who accept Christ as their Lord and Saviour are those who are redeemed. Yes, Jesus paid for all sin, which includes everybody. But to be a recipient of that payment one must be in Christ. If you're not in...

    How many years ago did Dinosaurs last walk the earth?

    Josho In trying to date the dinosaurs you have to deal with the dating of the original creation. I don't know if you are familiar with the 'gap theory', but you should study up on it as it will provide answers to these questions. Briefly stated the 'gap theory' sees (Gen.1:1) as original...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Who is (1John 1:9) speaking to? Believers or non-believers? Again I ask you, does being 'unforgiven of them' mean we are back into hell? And, again, does Christ's intersession mean getting us back into heaven, or does it mean we belong in heaven? You haven't answered anything, as usual. I...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Indeed, there is only one redemption. The payment was for sin, in total. The person is not redeemed until he comes to Christ. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Your avoiding the questions, as usual. Who is 1John 1:9 speaking to, believers or non believers? So, again, I ask you, does 'being unforgiven of them' mean we are back in hell? And again, and again, does Christ's intersession mean getting us back into heaven or does it mean we belong in...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    You have sin and you have the person. The sin is paid for. All of it. The person is not redeemed until they are in Christ. That is not my invention. It's the Bible. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    What do you mean we were never there to begin with. Who is 1John 1:9 speaking to? Believers or unbelievers? So, again, I ask you, does 'being unforgiven of them' mean we are back into hell? Christ is interceding in heaven for His people. So, does Christ's intersession mean getting us back...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    And those who reject are never redeemed. Not true, I reject limited atonement. Just as I reject your claim that just because all sin is paid for then all are redeemed. None are redeemed until the come to Christ. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    By 'badly worded' and 'cryptic' you mean you're having a hard time evading them. I understand. Again, I asked you, does 'not being forgiven of them', mean we are back into hell? Please answer. Again, simple question, does Christ's intersession mean getting us back into heaven? Or does it...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Your post #16. So, what do you mean by 'being forgiven of them'? Pay attention. What do you mean when you say 'we are not forgiven'. Are we back into hell? Or what? It's not a hard question. And, quit ignoring my question. Is Christ's intersession to get us back into heaven? Or is...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    If you don't cooperate, you are not redeemed. The redeemed are those who cooperate. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    I asked you a question. What do you mean buy being forgiving of them'? Is Christ's intersession to get us back into heaven? Or, is it to show that we belong in heaven? Please answer. Stranger

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Yes, Jesus paid it all and not all will be saved. But not all are redeemed. You're only redeemed if you have come to Christ. Stranger

    A Testimony of God’s Faithfulness to the Broken

    VictoryinJesus I praise God for you and that He has saved you, opening your eyes to Christ. In reading your testimony I was reminded of (Matt.18:5-7). "And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    But what do you mean by being 'forgiving of them'? All sins are paid for in Christs sacrifice, period, to those who have placed faith in Christ. Christ's intersession is not to get us back into heaven. His intersession is to show that we belong in heaven, because our sins are paid for...

    Why is Christianity so focused on Sin?

    Because Jesus Christ has paid for it all, then we who are redeemed are saved. We did not get saved by 'accepting forgivness' or by 'repenting of our sins'. We got saved by accepting the person of Jesus Christ as the Son of God our Lord and Saviour. Stranger

    The Greatest Example Of Forgiveness

    VictoryinJesus I receive your words as a 'good word in season'. Yes, to tame the tongue is an ever on-going battle in this life. And I need to be reminded of this at times. Thanks. I will say that I am doing quite better than I used to. But I always need to improve. We most definitely...

    The Greatest Example Of Forgiveness

    greggordon Not all wrongs done to us as believers are done by other believers. What of those? We don't become become Christians because we accept this 'forgiveness' We become Christian because we believe on Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour. The demonic world is a world of...

    Great Men & Women of God

    Your quite welcome. You should try and obtain his biography. It is full of the Lord's miraculous work in saving this man on an almost daily basis. Towards the end of his ministry he faced off with the native witch doctors in a Mt. Carmel type experience. If I remember right his wife died...
