What! A fellow who has extorted millions of dollars from the faithful who thought they were giving to God's work, when it went on his big mansion and his fleet of jets? He has lied to the people in making them believe they were giving to God's work when he was keeping most of it himself. He has...

We all try, knowing that we will have to account for our every word and deed on the day of Judgment.

I asked you a direct, respectful question and expected a respectful answer, not an abusive one. If you don't know whether you are a good person or not, that would have been an acceptable answer. So, why not calm down, stop being defensive, and just answer my question?

I'm going to throw a spanner into the works here: Let's look at James: "But someone will say, “You have faith and I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds" (James 2:18). What I see in your post is the importance of maintain the word of faith, but...

What I am doing is to bring the conversation back to the foundation of the gospel, seeing that this is a Christian forum. I know I have said in previous posts that we don't have to comply with the Jewish Saturday Sabbath as a requirement, but I have learned that keeping the Sabbath Day is the...

When we all stand before God in the Judgment, we will be judged on whether we have kept or violated any or all of the Ten Commandments. Sin is the violation of the Ten Commandments. God hates sin, and He is not only a God of love, but He is a God of justice as well. Therefore if we have...

Can I ask you a non-judgmental question: Are you a good person?

If you and I went over the Japan and tried our jokes on them, they would not laugh because of their different culture they would not be able to understand them! Culture is one reason why I laugh at Northern English stand up comedians (when they keep away from filth and four letter words) when I...

True. We are brainwashed! Our gumboots get full of water!

This shows that we are on the same foundation - the Bible!

So if we observe that instead of the Saturday Sabbath, are we still not keeping the Sabbath Day Commandment which is one of the other nine we are required to keep?

Calling a spade a spade is a good thing. I know of a guy called Doug who had a spade, and when they took it off him, he became Douglas!

So, the Ten Commandments includes to observe the Sabbath Day and keep it holy, because God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh. So, if in the Judgment we are going to be judged on how we have kept the Ten Commandments and you find that because you were a lying, thieving...

So, when the crowd's hearts were pricked and they cried out what shall we do to be saved? Peter answered, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and observe the Lord's Day and you will be saved"? And Paul's answer to the Philippian jailor, "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and be baptised, and...

Now, that IS interesting! Never thought of that!

Does it really matter when all things are considered? What does matter is: Have you been born again so that Jesus has taken your penalty for sin on Himself when He suffered and died on the cross?

Keeping the Saturday Sabbath does not prevent a person being born again of the Spirit of God and therefore being genuinely converted to Christ. This means that keeping the Sabbath is not absolutely linked to our salvation, although it is preferable to set aside a day for rest and worship of...

The reality is that we are all going to face the Judgment. The Scripture is clear concerning all of us: "It is appointed for man once to die, and after that the Judgment" (Hebrews 9:27), and "We must all give an account to God" (Hebrews 4:13), and "For we must all appear before the judgment...

Our friend RogerDC seems to have dropped off contributing to the forum. I hope he has not contracted Coronavirus! We should pray for him if he has, because we love him and are concerned about his welfare.

Yes. New Zealanders and Australians tend to be blunt as well. Wow! I'm blinded by science. You know what you are talking about and I can't argue with what you have said, although some of your long words were the same as my doctor's when he gave me a diagnosis, and I told him that he was...
