    That the temple might be built.

    I am interested in the Jews rebuilding of the Temple. It was a good article but seems most still hold to the Dome of the Rock being the location where the Temple needs to be. But, even if they decided to build it away from the Dome it would still be on the Temple Mount. And I assure you...

    Rome vs Melchizedek

    Concerning Matt. 6:15, first of all, Matt. 5-7 does not describe the rules or law the Church is under. They are the laws of the 'kingdom'. Second of all, it doesn't say the believers in the kingdom will lose their salvation. It says they won't be forgiven if they don't forgive. In the...

    Rome vs Melchizedek

    kepha31 (Eph.2:8-9) says nothing about faith must come first. It says very clearly that "....by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." You need to pay attention. (James 2:24) is not speaking of when the...

    Rome vs Melchizedek

    Yes. Once a person has accepted Christ as their Lord and Saviour, have believed on Jesus Christ as the Son of God, however you want to word it, they are declared righteous by God and have eternal life. Never to be taken away. Stranger

    Secession should be considered and allowed

    Yes, God set you free. But, He did so by buying you. At a very high price, His Sons blood. Just because God purchased you at a high price, doesn't make Him evil as a slave owner. (1Cor. 6:19-20) "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye...

    Rome vs Melchizedek

    No, what you are saying is that (Eph.2:8-9) seems opposite of what you are saying. So, what do you do? How do you explain it? Harmonize it? You don't. You just believe the Scriptures that appear to teach that the believer can lose his or her salvation. Stranger

    Rome vs Melchizedek

    No, Scripture says faith is simply believing. (Ehp.2:8-9). Which you fail to harmonize with your 'loss of salvation due to no works' theory. Yes, I have read (James 2:19-20). "Faith without works is dead." Which is true. Without the works, the faith that one has is dead. It's...

    Secession should be considered and allowed

    Are you a Christian? Were you bought and paid for by God, the price being the life of Jesus Christ, His blood? Yet you say slavery is wrong? It is not that slavery is wrong, but who is your master. You have bought into the 'social gospel'. The 'goodness of mankind'. I notice you give...

    The School of the prophets: God's rules

    Really? You and God. Impressive. So its not a Trinity, but a Fourfold. Father, Son, Holy Spirit, and Michael V Pardo? Sorry, sounds too strange for me. Save your breath. Turn me into the moderators if you like, there are those who will hear you. But I don't need your instruction. Stranger

    Rome vs Melchizedek

    Actually, it is. Simply believing. And James illustrates that because he is not talking about the faith that results in being declared righteous before God. Something you failed to address. You simply give me an 'opinion'. I gave you Scripture which you could not 'harmonize'. Stranger

    Rome vs Melchizedek

    The 'works' attributed to Abraham in (James 2:24) occur long after his initial salvation.(Gen.22:1-13) Righteousness was already imputed to him. (Gen.15:6) His works were a product or fulfillment of his salvation. They played no role in his being declared righteous by God. (James 2:23) (Eph...

    Rome vs Melchizedek

    I certainly don't say we as Christians can 'sin boldly' without repenting. But neither do I say these verses you have given say the Christian loses his or her salvation. You say in your post #9 that all Scripture must harmonize. How do you harmonize the Scriptures you have given with those...

    Cowardice of so-called 'stars'

    Exactly. (Psalm 2) " Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. " The...

    Protestant Apostasy Pending?

    Indeed, through the Scripture I will contest with others what is right or wrong. Scripture being the 66 books of the Bible. Hopefully, we can come to an agreement. If we cannot, then I don't sacrifice what I believe Scripture to teach just for the sake of some pius unity. Pseudo unity...
