    What is the basis for the unbeliever's condemnation?

    The "whosoever" is a message to us for our perspective only; since we do not have omniscience, we do not know the future and so it is presented that way to us. But God alone knows the beginning and the ending of all things. This is in the realm of His foreknowledge, His sovereignty. He has a...

    What is the basis for the unbeliever's condemnation?

    I am not a Calvinist; but it is your perogative to misjudge and disregard me. God Bless

    What is the basis for the unbeliever's condemnation?

    No. He has in mind a remnant ( His Sheep), the "elect", whom He will save. They are ordained to be saved. Jesus is the Author and Finisher of our faith and so we are not born condemned. We are all born sinners. Not all are His sheep. I don't adhere to the phrase "eternal condmenation". Aionios...

    The flood of old and now approaching days like Noah?

    It is also interesting why Nineveh, a city filled with wicked people, run by a wicked, godless king would repent after a mere man, a stranger, comes into town, preaches repentance with a warning of judgment, would actually heed his warning and not just laugh and scoff at him ... then kill him...

    The flood of old and now approaching days like Noah?

    His dead body was in the fish, but his soul was not. Just souls went to Hades, the fish didn 't. The earth's bars ( gates if Hades) closed behind me - that is not wear the fish went. He was swimming within his normal range, closer to the surface. He "brought up his life from the pit". Again...

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    John Lennon was a brilliant songwriter, but went off the rails a bit. He got into drugs, delved into other religions, meditated with Maharish Mehesh Yogi and realized he was a phony; but evebtually settled on Marxism. He actually envisioned what this Utopian model would be like 55 years ago in...

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    The BIG PICTURE the Dems have in mind is Globalism, a One World Government. They knew decades ago that the USA would be the most difficult country to accept the end of the USA and relinquishjng of our sovereignty. The WEF (with the UN signed onto this goal) have in mind no borders for any...

    What is the difference between being kind, being a coward or being a suck?

    The knowledge of Good and Evil and the discernment between the two is a key purpose that God has for us, part of our education about life. Love and hate are part of that. Good and evil come in many forms, sometimes come in a mixture. Life is complicated and we don't always see the truth behind...

    What is the difference between being kind, being a coward or being a suck?

    You need to rephrase your question. "Suck" is a verb. How can one be a suck? Is that some aboriginal expression you learned on your walkabout in the outback? Anybody else want to take guess? Maybe it's a leech ... or a vampire?

    WHAT DOES IT MEAN WIVES ARE TO BE OBEDIENT TO THEIR HUSBANDS?

    "Obey husbands as you obey the Lord". That makes sense. Jesus gives us all good commandments. So then if a husband is unrighteous, ungodly, does she still remain obedient? Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be...

    Jesus Followed Satan OR Satan Had Physical Power Over Jesus?

    Yes, He relinquished His glory temporarily. Then remember after His mission _ accomplished _ it was returned to Him! And now You, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world existed. JOHN 17:5 Btw, Jesus is YHWH, the Great I AM, Whom in His...

    Jesus Followed Satan OR Satan Had Physical Power Over Jesus?

    You give full honor and worship to God, our Father. That is good. But you do not give the rightly deserved honor nor recognize the true nature of Jesus - who is equal to the Father. And the Holy Spirit ... well, you do not have a grasp on Him either. But Jesus knew this. "who, as He already...

    Jesus Followed Satan OR Satan Had Physical Power Over Jesus?

    Well, correct, out of 62 English tranalations viewed at Biblegateway,com, 25 say "tempt" and 37 say "test".. The words are interchangeable - they mean the same thing. That was the point of Him being in the desert - not the premise of your thread. The statement was about the Lord. Jesus is Lord...

    Jesus Followed Satan OR Satan Had Physical Power Over Jesus?

    Satan had no power over Jesus. The Father sent His Son, the Messiah/Savior on a mission and his first task was a 40 day fast in the wilderness and temptation by Satan. It was just part of God's plan. Several things were accomplished. 1. Jesus was tempted and remained faithful to His Father...

    The flood of old and now approaching days like Noah?

    The correlation to Noah's time was given _ I think _ to speak of the unawareness and imminency of the coming judgment; not the state of wickedness of the entire world. He destroyed everyone and saved only eight. This time I believe 1/3 will be saved. The world been changed by Christ, much more...

    Thanksgiving

    Does the UK have a similar holiday where you give thanks to God aside from Christmas and Easter?

    Thanksgiving

    Sorry for your loss. But he is giving thanks for where he is now and will be waiting for you. I ask Jesus often to say hi to my family up there, as I imagine their wonderful life in heaven.

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    Maybe the Deep State has something else up their sleeves. I really suspected something big. The assassinatiins attempts didn't work, they lost ... but is it over? Anything can happen from now till Jan. 20.

    What to do with all these illegal aliens?

    The US government reported 650k homeless in 2023, a 12% increase since the previous year. So by 2025, at that percentage increased, that number will be over 800k. Where are all these 12 million illegals going? Moving in with families already here? Something is not right. Only 5% incoming remain...
