@Aunty Jane said 'You have to ignore a lot of scripture to push a trinity.' One must ignore more than all of Scripture. Trinitarianism must escape the confines of Definition Logic Language Usage To do this, they invoke mysticism and dualism. To questions you ask the dualism is to invent a...

Well stated exchange. Predictably, I side with Aunty Jane. Barney, you take things personally. AJ and I attack ideas not people. When your ideas are challenged you retreat into victimhood. Great question. Last year my Pastor pissed me off asking a variant of this question. I am not ONLY a...

I believe salvation is instant. Sanctification is like taking a shower. Little by little you become clean. Some people don’t take a proper shower and just get dirty then have to start all over again.

There you go again, falsely basing things on emotions. Yoda said to Luke Skywalker Do or do not! There is no try. You have not repented. Embrace a non-emotional concept of repenting. Repenting is what a swimmer does in a pool when they get to the wall; they change directions. An objective...

As another poster pointed out, it is not about feelings, emotions. Consider the-evaluating your definitions. A true Christian abdicates the throne of being the ruler of their own life. They defer to another as their master, who knows more and loves them more deeply than they love themselves...

A Christian not yet baptized is still a Christian. Learn to honor others more than yourself.

Have faith in God but mind you, keep your powder dry.

Staying in place during societal collapse is NOT 'dying for Jesus.'

Some denomination seems to advance this theory. It goes against the Book of Hebrews.

The RCC now is like the Pharisees of old, except they have no political power. Their claims of authority just become more shrill every year.

Of course it is an insulting expression. From Catechumen | Definition of Catechumen by Merriam-Webster Definition of catechumen 1: a convert to Christianity receiving training in doctrine and discipline before baptism 2: one receiving instruction in the basic doctrines of Christianity before...

It's posts like this turn off so many people as it embraces death, if not suicide. Christopher Columbus is credited with bringing Christianity to half the globe. He did not do this by 'living where God put him.' We have no obligation under God to commit suicide. We have no obligation to put...

They don't need us; they need Christ.

Yes, your concerns are valid. What country to move to is the challenge?

Agreed but no point turning this thread into another Roman Catholic bashing thread. IMO, no denomination is as far from the Spirit of God as the power hungry RCC. Half a Millenia after the Protestant Reformation and they STILL don't get it. Their theological claim to legitimacy is specious.

Too bad this thread was not a poll. IMO, the question pivots on 'Soul Sleep' compared to 'absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.'

Agh, catechumens. Still using your new word. It's so funny how you frequently you invoke a verse of Scripture that does not support your claim in any way. NOTE Mark 16:16 says nothing of the requirements to be a "Christian." Mark 16:16 New Living Translation 16 Anyone who believes and is...

He also does well until he confuses his denomination with the entirety of the body of Christ.

Going strong? Not what I'd call an obsolete translation. If you want to accept half millennia old translation errors as "Gospel" I can't stop you. Make a blessed day!

Ahem. You do know this is the KJV most famous error, right?
