    God is Patient. He allows men time to grow, mature, become familiar with themselves, before they hear about a God they can NOT see. God is also QUICK. Ever notice a salesman.. Tells you about a product, gives you the information, how it works, what to expect, warranties, etc. Then once you...

    Of course you can CHANGE YOUR MIND. I tried to stress, maybe not enough. A mind has its own thoughts. A heart has its own thoughts. Of course one (mind) knows the thoughts of its own (Heart). God does not accept the mans MINDS thoughts as a confession of Belief. God does accept the mans...

    No, don't see what you mean. Are you saying, a man has to AGAIN DECIDE to believe? How so? The man already GAVE his LIFE to God to KEEP the man IN faith, which God does with His indwelling Power. Sure they can. We have duel thoughts. One is from the heart, One is from the mind. God is...

    REMOVED? Huh. I said the complete opposite. The Choice has not been REMOVED... It has been EFFECTED. Inanutshell ~ God is saying; make a choice. When a man makes a NATURAL heartfelt choice...to choose God. He is making a choice VIA His "NATURAL spirit (truth), in His heart. Instantly...

    I do not agree with your wording, that Satan had dominion over Jesus Christ. None have power, lest it BE from Christ, who IS the Power of God. Jesus came to Take upon His body, all sin. Jesus came to Give that body of Flesh unto death. Everything Jesus did, was controlled by the Will / Power...

    God gives us things to influence us, that we might be sparked and interested to come to Him and receive what He has to offer. His Word, enlightenment, faith, promises, comfort, knowledge, wisdom, understanding, forever life with Him, etc. It is there, and any man who wants that; Can "TAKE...

    Agree ~ However a natural man Begins with "his" truth. Which a mans truth is simply what he absolutely believes IS True. A mans natural truth, "IS the mans natural spirit in his heart." Gods TRUTH, is also Spirit. It is Gods Truth concerning Spiritual things. When God circumcises a mans...

    That is why I specifically said, "IF" that were possible. It isn't possible. While also telling you specifically what Sins I HAD ACCOUNTED to me, ARE forgiven, and Never again possible for me to commit. After forgiveness OF those sins; I received the death of my body (crucified) I received...

    Jesus' living soul departed his body the body was expelling "it's" last breath. Jesus' living soul, went to the heart of the earth. Jesus' dead body hung on the cross, was asked for it to be taken down, permission was asked and receive from Pilate. Then His body was removed from the cross...

    Absolutely, an UN-COMMITED man can walk away. Scripture warns to BE SURE of your election of God. 2 Pet 1:10 ....give diligence to make your calling and election sure... IOW - IF one is choosing to commit to God, Be sure. Repeatedly, in Scripture, it is told to us, He makes the changes...

    Not sure what you mean by this. Could you expound. Are you speaking of his body or his soul or both? Do you believe his body and soul were in the same place? Thanks. Thanks for sharing. Asked you earlier. You could have simply referenced a link. It seems you presumed everyone has already...

    The SEAL, is given by the Holy Spirit, and Kept SEALED by the Holy Spirit. The SEAL, is opened, which is to say, the Lamb of God Himself, unseals His Lambs book of Life, which reveals the Names of those WHO, confessed Belief IN Christ. It is opened on Redemption Day, and on that Day, The Lord...

    My two cents... BEFORE I commited, my SIN(S) were. 1) being naturally born from a mans seed Drats! 2) having the Lord give me a good soul, but yipes. It was in my corrupt body and became corrupt. Drats! 3) Not believing in God or the Lord. Drats! Not naturally born believing. That was...

    I use a big boys Bible. If you require little one-liners, single verses; try a Toddler Bible. I repeat what the Lord has approved in Scripture. If you think that "arrogant", who cares? 1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; For his seed remaineth in him: And he cannot sin...

    Agree. "FOLLOWING" is absolutely a freewill choice. There is NO YOKE. To YOKE is to be tied to. Absolutely, one "FOLLOWING" can walk away at anything. Much in Scripture IS SAID about one who begins "FOLLOWING", and "WALKING AWAY". Any man who IS "FOLLOWING", is by default, hearing the WORD...

    I said what I wanted to say and moved on. Hardly a preoccupation! Why do you keep talking about her? She wasn't sure of her own faith, and the Catholics declared her a saint. Very odd! I acknowledged her charitable works, and also acknowledged, Doing charitable works is not the criteria for...

    Now you explain more, what an other poster could not, and was trying to make his attitude be his justification for his claim. Is there not also TWO sabbaths to consider during that timeframe? Was the sabbath, a tradition to attend Temple for the men, then rest, and rest for the family? Would...
