    WORK, is simply Doing a Service. Men can DO a Service in the Carnal sense. Which is specifically Doing a service for MAN, himself or another man. Men can Also DO a Service in the Spiritual sense. Which is specifically Doing a Pleasing service for GOD. IF a man is NOT "with" God; Nothing the...

    SIN in a nutshell IS rebellion AGAINST GOD. The key word is not SIN, but rather the key word is AGAINST God. Everything hinges on; Being AGAINST God Or Being WITH God Because all men are naturally born, from a natural seed of a man who Rebelled AGAINST God, ta da, ALL men are naturally Born...

    Everyone has their own stories of hardships... And man if you can't look back, and laugh, bitterness can creep it's way in and for some folks, last a life-time. I have one sister that she and I not only look back and laugh, we were laughing way back when, which too bad, is not the case for our...

    Are you catholic?

    LOL. Funny. But sad, noone bothered to explain the gesture. I can relate. On "vacation" at grandmas house; (my grandma that had 10 grandchildren but only accounted 1, and didn't like the rest) and my 3 sibling and I were not the 1, lol. Anyway our mom would give us four kids a nickel to...

    Gun Control

    Personally I think some guns are like art, pleasing to the eye. On a grander note...Scripture speaks over 230 times about preparedness. I would rather be prepared then not. You know, like carrying a spare tire! Or Jesus appears and a man didn't prepare himself to be redeemed. God Bless, Taken

    Gun Control

    We have a TV, but don't watch TV. Occasionally a movie....but mostly, use a flash drive to show rotating pictures of family and churches and old barns and structures and natural scenery we take while traveling. Today's TV broadcasting....UGH, nausaiting. God Bless, Taken

    Gun Control

    Perhaps one of your children will keep them for a future grand- great- or great, great grandchild. I have acquired ( not stamps ) but letters, pictures, documents, diaries, Bibles, and other things, that family members kept, but didn't really want, nor did descending generations... Great...

    Can you choose God?

    Freewill is term in Scripture. It is about Freely making an offering to the Lord. First is was freely offering and presenting animals flesh and blood unto the Lord. Now it is a man freely offering (called presenting) .. "his" whole body unto the Lord. Rom 12:1 God Bless, Taken

    Actually it is the whole of Scripture; but people like you who can not believe in Gods SAVING grace being Once and Sufficient... Ya'll require the one-lines, like an elementary student who requires a billeted fact sheet. So, we appease you, and still you whine and make up false accusations. TO...

    Once Saved....always Saved - Results of Questionnaire.

    That's dandy for actions between men. THat does not apply in an action between a man and God. Well...uh, ya He does FORCE YOU TO KEEP YOUR SALVATION! But then you were warned, it's permanent. And by the way, the KEEPING has nothing to do with the mans efforts; It is ALL KEPT By the Power of...

    Can you choose God?

    This is where I go a tad bit further back and perhaps on a larger scale. Agree nothing is new under the sun. God knows all things (we don't). Not a "reincarnation" type of thing, but simply Gods Knowledge. Two parties are always involved.. The Creator God and the Created man. Each MUST make an...

    Once in Heaven, can you lose your salvation?

    God is Love. He gives blessing to all, His mercy to all, and is Just to all. It is His desire we BECOME LIKE HIM. Taught to LOVE ALL, even your enemies whom one strongly dislikes (hates)....and? Then should we say, THAT ^ is NOT LIKE GOD? God Bless, Taken

    Once in Heaven, can you lose your salvation?

    Yet another of your false accusations. I am not required to teach you every step of Gods WAY. However I know His Way and have claimed nothing in contrast to His Word; John 17:23 ...the whole world may know..God hast loved them John 9:34 ...born in sin John16:26 ...sin; disbelief in Christ...

    Error! There is DOUBLE... Your carnal understanding of Gods Word. Gods spiritual understanding of His own Word; that I agree with. Precisely BECAUSE Jesus took upon HIS BODY the SINS of the WHOLE WORLD, and GAVE HIS BODY TO DEATH... And I was crucified bodily WiTH HIM... I have ACCEPTED HIS...

    Once in Heaven, can you lose your salvation?

    More bluntly = You are steeped in your personal carnal understanding. You are without Spiritual Understanding; which IS Gods Understanding of His own knowledge and Word. And Yes, because YOU rely on YOUR carnal understanding; Gods Spiritual Understanding Is a conflict for you. Gods Spiritual...

    Once in Heaven, can you lose your salvation?

    Yep, I agree scripture says God hated Esau. Yep, I agree with scripture that says God Loved the World. Jesus offered His flesh body for the Life of the World. God loved us first. Some people are MUCH loved (beloved) Some people are MUCH disliked (hated) I trust what Scripture says. I...
