    Truth or Terror: The Biblical Reality of Apostasy

    I really appreciate the concern, and you’re right, false teaching is a serious and destructive issue. The Bible clearly warns us that false teachers will secretly bring in heresies that can lead many astray (2 Peter 2:1–2). While it’s true we can’t change the whole world ourselves, we’re not...

    Has "Christian Forums" become a Catholic site?

    You're twisting Scripture to force your theology and ignoring the full counsel of God. I'm not confusing covenant fulfillment with nationalism, and I'm not preaching two peoples or two plans. I'm pointing out what the Bible actually says. God made everlasting promises to Israel, not just...

    Has "Christian Forums" become a Catholic site?

    According to the Bible, Israel as a nation and people still has a distinct role in God's plan, and acknowledging that does not deny Christ, it affirms the full counsel of God. Romans 11 makes it clear that Israel has not been cast away, and that God is not finished with them. Paul says, “Hath...

    Has "Christian Forums" become a Catholic site?

    Catholics are not Christians according to the Bible. They need to repent and trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation, not in sacraments, the pope, or religious works. A true Christian is someone who has been born again by repentance and faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation, not by...

    Has "Christian Forums" become a Catholic site?

    ChristianForums dot com is not a place I'd recommend if you're genuinely seeking biblical truth and authentic Christian fellowship. I shared straightforward truths from the Bible and was banned for life without explanation. This experience left me deeply disappointed. It appears that the site...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    According to the Bible, baptism is always connected to personal faith, repentance, and belief in the gospel, none of which infants are capable of. In every instance where baptism is described, it follows a conscious response to the message of salvation. Acts 2:38 says, “Repent, and be baptized...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    Sin does not make demands of God, but God, in His holiness, demands justice for sin. The Bible is clear, “The wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23), not because sin holds power over God, but because God Himself has declared the consequence of sin. Sin doesn’t rule, God does, and He has set the...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    What you’re doing is not biblical interpretation, it’s Scripture denial. You’re twisting the text, redefining plain words, and undermining the very core of the Gospel. Let’s walk through it bluntly with the Word of God in hand, because this kind of error needs strong reproof. You say “God’s...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    Your response is not only confused, it directly contradicts the Word of God. You’re twisting Scripture to avoid the truth that God’s wrath is real, it was poured out on Jesus, and that is the very definition of propitiation. Let's deal with this directly, using only Scripture. You quoted...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    According to Scripture, the concept of propitiation absolutely includes the wrath of God, because propitiation is not just about covering sin, it’s about satisfying divine justice. The Greek word used in Romans 3:25 and 1 John 2:2 is ἱλαστήριον (hilastērion) and ἱλασμός (hilasmos) in 1 John...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    You keep repeating the same error, and at this point, you're willfully ignoring what Scripture actually says. I am not wrong, what I’ve told you is straight out of the Bible, not my opinion. The wrath of God is not just a theological idea, it's a repeated biblical truth, and denying it is...

    What are some of the reasons people don’t like going to church buildings or institutionalized churches?

    Your reference to 2 Peter 2:17 is valid Scripture, but you're misapplying it to defend a man-centered view of Bible study. That verse is speaking about false teachers, not literary analysis. The issue isn’t whether God used metaphor or imagery in the Bible, He clearly did, but whether we are...

    Jesus’ Equality with God: A Sola Scriptura Perspective

    But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.” This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. ~ John 5:17-18 From a Sola Scriptura...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    Again, you are completely wrong about 2 Thessalonians 2:15. That verse does not give anyone permission to add to the Bible or treat man-made traditions as equal to God's Word. Paul was telling the Thessalonians to hold to what he and the other apostles had already taught them, whether spoken in...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    That’s not how the Bible presents atonement, and your objection shows a failure to grasp both the seriousness of sin and the holiness of God. Jesus was not just an innocent man, He is the eternal Son of God, willingly taking the place of the guilty to satisfy divine justice. Isaiah 53:5 says...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    That kind of statement is blasphemous. You’re mocking the Gospel of Jesus Christ with twisted, carnal logic. The Bible says “The preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but unto us which are saved it is the power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:18). Jesus wasn't “killed out of rage,”...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    According to Scripture, there is no room for redefining aionios (αἰώνιος) when it is tied to punishment. The Bible uses that same Greek word to describe both eternal life and eternal punishment, making it clear that both are equally unending in duration. In Matthew 25:46, Jesus says, “And these...

    The Wrath of God - How is it love?

    You may not want to believe that God poured out His wrath on His Son, but that is exactly what happened, because that’s what our sin demanded. Isaiah 53:10 says, “Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him, he hath put him to grief,” and Isaiah 53:6 declares, “The Lord hath laid on him the iniquity...
