    Is having Faith in the gospel considered a "work"?

    Yes, there is a difference! You are correct in your understanding that Jesus Himself is God's Good News to all the world. Jesus Himself is the Gospel of God. Unfortunately, not many understand that. . Many see the writings of the gospel, according to- Matthew, Mark Luke and John as being "the...

    Biblical Timeline leading up to the end

    You did a very good job in separating the three by scripture. We all understand the worlds of numbers 1 and 2. But are you sure you know what #3 is all about? If you are going to try and describe it through OT prophecies, you are going to end up with the "if/then" world of a Jewish kingdom that...

    Is having Faith in the gospel considered a "work"?

    "Is having Faith in the gospel considered a "work"?" I would have taken part in your poll, but you are asking the wrong question! As a result, all of those who do vote, will be skewered for truth on what to vote for. Many are doing "works", thinking that they are doing "the work(s) of God" Your...

    Luke 16 the rich man in hell lift up his eyes in torment

    The problem with an "eternally burning hell of torment forever and ever" is found way back in Genesis. It's all due to a common misunderstanding by most of the "religious" denominations of Christianity. 1611 KJV- Gen. 2[7] And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into...

    amillennialism

    CI, You have neglected to understand that Israel, as a nation, was the physical type of the KoG to the anti-type of the literal KoG through Jesus. Try to let that sink in. All of the OT Prophecies, that were spoken to Israel, were "if/then Prophecies". "If" they obeyed God through faith, "then"...

    Correction: BTW, most professing Christians do not understand what Jesus accomplished in the 70 week prophecy. It was He who put an end to the temple sacrifices, by His own sacrifice of Himself.

    BTW, most professing Christians do not understand what Jesus accomplished in the 70 week prophecy. It was He who put I said that in the KJV, one will never find the word "the" before any of the topics that you posted in red. . The 1611- KJV is translated from the Textus Receptus Greek text, and...

    I agree! However, you need to complete your thoughts on who and what the temple is, that God has been building "without hands". John 2:18-22

    Biblical Timeline leading up to the end

    CI, I and many other B/A Christians believe in the 2nd coming of the Lord (your religious word-"rapture"). However, the timing of that "blessed hope" is not entwined in your religious theory, concerning a period that you call "THE" Tribulation. Nowhere in the KJV shall you find the word "the"...

    Basic Bible Timeline

    All of that was fulfilled in Jesus' first appearance, and the giving of the Holy Spirit to all people of faith in Jesus. For example: "their own field" (Ezk. 34:13) is explained by Jesus to be "pasture" . John 10:9- “I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in...

    We really CAN'T answer some of these

    Will there be a bodily resurrection of the believer into immortality as Jesus is now? Yes! But first, we are only made to be "partakers" of the divine nature, by His Holy Spirit, until He physically returns from Heaven in flaming fire, in the fulness of all His Glory. It is that time, that we...

    We really CAN'T answer some of these

    The Age of God's Grace is symbolically being shown as "a thousand years", which is equivalent to saying " for a very long time", having no defined end by God in time, as He perceives time.

    We really CAN'T answer some of these

    So the question remains: who and when is Rev. 20:6 speaking of? 1. Jesus is The First Resurrection. 2. Blessed and holy [are WE] who have taken part as a participant in HIS Resurrection, being made to be "partakers of the divine nature". 2 Peter 1:4 3. All of such are NOW priests of God and...

    We really CAN'T answer some of these

    Lol. Unfortunately, concerning the maze of beliefs, that have been fabricated, through the use of the term "millennium", is all generated by a gross misunderstanding of when the First Resurrection WAS, and WHO was involved. Rev. 20[6] Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first...

    We really CAN'T answer some of these

    All your questions are answered, once you gain God's perspective on it. Isa. 55:8-9; John 16:13. . John 3:18- ALL, who are physically born in the flesh, through the seed of Adam, are condemned already. But ALL who believe in Christ are not condemned. . Col. 3:3- If you are "born again", through...

    Are You Saved Because You Believe OR Do You Believe Because You Are Saved?

    I agree! Jesus spoke the concept of the trinity plain enough in John 14 [13] And whatsoever ye shall ask [Luke 11:13] in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. [14] If ye shall ask [Luke 11:13] any thing in my name, I will do it. [15] If ye love me, keep my...

    Are You Saved Because You Believe OR Do You Believe Because You Are Saved?

    Are You Saved Because You Believe OR Do You Believe Because You Are Saved? KJV- John 3:18 is the answer. We are saved because we believe.

    Without unconditional Election,no one would be saved.

    John 3[18] He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
