I repeat. Too much hate.

Before I was born again, during 30 years of going to church, I never had an answer to prayer. After I was born again and was empowered by the Spirit to keep his commandments, and obey His voice, all my prayers have been answered. And, yes, there is a verse of assurance in 1 John 3:21-24 that I...

I bought one of his books and by the second page, I had to stop reading. It seemed there were demons flying off the pages. So much hatred. What does he use to write with? Blood?

I'm the opposite. I like the people but have to ask myself why Jesus said of the Sardis church age, the age of the Reformation, "you have a reputation that you are alive, but you are dead." But after hearing the doctrine, it is quite evident that it is totally unholy and scripturally twisted...

I look at all the verses of the epistles, and do not pick and choose, or take verses out of context. I've tried to help you, but you have itching ears, and choose smooth talking false teachers and would rather not hear the hard truth. cc: @marks

Yes, I do. There are enough warnings in the epistles, it would be foolish to think otherwise.

What I know about Calvinism, I've learned on the forums. Frankly, I was shocked!

No they are not. God's eternal law is LOVE. Loving God with all your heart, and your neighbor as yourself. The Ten Commandments were the ministry of death. 2 Corinthians 3:7-11. The New Covenant is the ministry of the Spirit and goes far deeper than the surface laws of the 10C. Read the...

You didn't even quote what I wrote about Galatians. You seem to think I ignored it. Enoch, do yourself and your theology a favor and read Romans 7 in CONTEXT. Start with Romans 7:7 and read through Romans 8:9. That is enough context to understand what is as clear as day. You will find it is a...

I know you must know by now that Romans 7 is about those under the law WITHOUT the Spirit, and chapter 8 is what a difference having the Spirit makes. Jesus took away our sin, but in Roman 7:13 they definitely still have their sinful nature. You just won't study the context of Romans 7 to have...

Plain literal sense, or what the apostle meant? Which is the truth about a Christian who has already been born again and ALL their sins are cleansed? 1 John 1:8 or 1 John 3:9. If someone cannot sin, is he a sinner, or as 1 John 3:1 says, children of God? They can't both be about Christians. So...

I was referring to what you said, which I agreed to.

Matthew and Mark were both written between 50 AD and 60 AD, but I do believe Mark was written first.

Not if you know Hebrew idioms. LOL

and @farouk I agree that every letter and every space between the letters was authored by God, and not, as you say moved. I also agree that perverse men twisted the Scriptures and came up with heretical doctrines, but I don't think we would agree on which denominations adopted those doctrines...

Gospel Parallels by Throckmorton is one of my favorite books that I received as a gift in the early 1990's. I also believe Mark is the source for Matthew and Luke, but I don't recall learning of this in that book. Do you have the book in one of its editions called Understanding the Difficult...

I agree. At least, I've only found one that comes close, but still there are some things I'd like to discuss with them...

I'm curious which denomination you believe has the truth.

Not that I've found. There are some that are very attractive and designed for itching ears. They require no change in their behavior, just belief that Jesus will take them to heaven anyway. That is why I do not belong to any denomination; I go straight to God for the Author's interpretation...

I don't agree.
