    Limited Atonement VS Universal Atonement

    The message, the good news to go out to the world is that Jesus has died for your sins. Yes, its the message the world considers foolish because it doesn't have the sound of sophistication, it requires no theological approval from anybody. The Sprit accompanies this message. It takes what men...

    Jesus and Commands

    I think defining ourselves and others by titles of any sort is tricky business and only warranted by those who feel the need to categorise. God will have the defining say and if we have confidence in our forgiveness and our sympathies go out to those that know not God we are blessed.

    enthusiasm in trimming dying fronds. The ladder placed against the tree decided it was better unplaced. The bod's on the improve though. Getting into a wheel chair yesterday for a shower was a protracted exercise, this morning the same manoeuvre was decidedly easier.

    Jesus and Commands

    Ohhh, I haven't got a clue about those statements and frankly I don't care. It seems that the religious systems feel compelled to cross all the t's and dot all the i's academically all the while building edifices and acquiring real estate as if that's some sort of measure of truth.

    Jesus and Commands

    'The Conflict of the Ages' series of books written by EGW, are enlightening to any person who has a relationship with Jesus. If you are not familiar with them do yourself a favour and get familiar them. Here they are: Any chapter of any of these books can stand alone. Its not like you have to...

    A Woman's role within the Body:

    I'm not familiar with the literacy level of women in Paul's time but is it possible that it was lower than mens? My guess re Paul's pronouncements here is that the women were possibly prattling in ignorance. I can't imagine him shutting down a woman who has something thoughtful to contribute...

    Violating the Letter of the Law while giving lip service to the Spirit of the Law is the practice of hypocrisy.

    yeah, I love the typos. They're a constant companion.

    Jesus and Commands

    It is Romans 7 1stCL. Romans 7 is the experience of those who are in Jesus. Why do I say this? because no unbeliever has the testimony of Romans 7:15-23 The unbeliever does not care to hate sin, particularly coveting. He/she does not struggle against sin. The struggle against sin is as unnatural...

    Jesus and Commands

    I need to be constantly mindful and instant in prayer, even in my sleep. Lust, greed, pride and generally self are constantly wanting to assert themselves. If its not from one angle its from another. However, there is the assurance of James 4:7 'Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the...

    John 9:35-41

    quietthinker said: ↑ Yes, this is right until they are consumed and the darkness will be complete for them. Where will the darkness be then? Gone! When sin and all those who love and practice a lie are destroyed, the whole universe, both animate and inanimate, once more will pulse with harmony...

    I'm wondering if Jesus has cured the battle between your mind and your will 1stCenturyLady ?

    Jesus and Commands

    Would God have given any laws that where arbitrary or superfluous and without intrinsic value? Would God change his mind regarding the value of his laws? Do you think that God had intended to accept fallen humanity on the basis of their performance? For what purpose was the promise was given in...

    Outer Darkness

    The premise you are using is flawed Taken. You have taken scriptures and cobbled them together to support your theory. You have not let the scripture speak its own message.
