Hebrews 4:9 - So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. (NASB) Notice that the Greek word "sabbatismos" here is used no where else in the Bible! W. E. Vine, Greek Dictionary points out: Sabbath rest (4520) (sabbatismos from sabbatízo = keep the Sabbath) literally means a keeping of...

Amen! That's not hard to understand. It's just hard for many people to ACCEPT.

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

Practicing lawlessness is descriptive of children of the devil and not children of God. (1 John 3:10) The demons believe in Christ in the same way that these many people in Matthew 7:22-23 believed in Christ with their head and not their heart. Romans 10:10 says it's with the heart that one...

Even though this shallow ground hearer in Luke 8:13 is said to have "believed," yet he is never said to have been "saved." How do we know that the shallow ground hearer was never actually "saved"? First, his heart condition is contrasted with that of the "good ground" hearer in the 4th soil...

Amen! Judas was an unbelieving, unclean devil who betrayed Jesus. (John 6:64-71; 13:10-11)

In regards to Matthew 7:22-23, these many people were not genuine believers who believed in Christ unto salvation. (John 3:18) Jesus NEVER knew them which means they were NEVER saved. In John 17:3, we read - And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom...

Basically all false religions and cults that claim to be Christian and teach salvation by works strongly disagree with OSAS which has always been a major red flag for me.

Say what? o_O There was nothing baseless about my argument at all and you obviously have a beef with OSAS proponents.

So you disagree with John 7:38-39? The Holy Spirit was not yet given/people were not sealed with the Holy Spirit until after Jesus was glorified. People who are absolutely obsessed with attacking OSAS typically view themselves as "holier than thou" and/or teach "type 2 works salvation."

I was just asking you a question. A simple NO will do. There are people who teach it.

Those who are truly born of God have received a new nature/become partakers of the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4) and have new desires. They have been transformed from pigs and dogs into sheep. The change is more than merely cosmetic, as in 2 Peter 2:20. *These cleaned up on the outside dogs and...

That was not simply my opinion and I properly harmonized scripture with scripture before reaching my conclusion on doctrine. In addition to properly harmonizing scripture with scripture, I cited one commentary from AT Robertson who was a well respected Christian and Greek scholar. Agreed, just...

In John 15:2-6, the branches that bear fruit and remain are genuine believers (like the remaining 11 disciples). The self-attached branches that bear no fruit and do not remain are not genuine believers (like Judas Iscariot). In John 15:2, Jesus mentions branches that bear no fruit and branches...

Those who believe they live a sinless, without fault or defect, flawless, absolute perfect life 100% of the time (exactly as Jesus lived) are suffering from a terminal case of self righteousness. (1 John 1:8-10)

Someone sent me this video yesterday. I have not watched the 700 Club in a while.

I keep hearing people say that UN vehicles are rolling into Australia. Is that true?

Wash, rinse, repeat.

My son shared some videos with me of protests in Australia on TikTok that were disturbing! I can't post them here because of the bad language. Protesters were retaliating against police who were very brutal with the protesters. If these protesters were heavily armed, things might be a lot...

In regards to Galatians 5:4, the present tense of the word "justified" implies that these Galatians were contemplating justification by the law. They were getting side tracked by legalistic teachers. "You who are trying to be justified by the law have fallen away from grace," but had they fully...
