    What is being a Christian?

    Irrespective of what any system says, Jesus says he is THE truth. We could ask, the truth of who or what? I propose he is saying, the truth of God, the way to God and the life of God. Is he a liar?

    What is being a Christian?

    Truth according to Jesus is a person, namely himself. That's quite a different approach to truth being an abstract idea. I guess we decide who to believe.

    What is being a Christian?

    agendas!....hmmm, I guess we all have agendas but not all have an interest in truth. Interestingly, Jesus said, 'I am the truth'.....a bold statement if ever there was one. We all will evaluate this and decide to our enlightenment or lack of it, the truthfulness of it.

    Which major Christian church in the U.S. is closest to the truth?

    In the early days the disciples saw Jesus through the lens of their Jewish programming. It wasn't until after he was resurrected and spent another 40 days with Jesus that they began to join the dots in a way which emboldened them unprecedentedly. It appears Paul and Luke wrote more about this...

    Which major Christian church in the U.S. is closest to the truth?

    The truths believed by the early disciples was also a dawning. It was the conviction that Jesus was preeminent. This conviction is even now in the minority.

    What Is Important to You to Do before You're Gone?

    What Is Important to You to Do before You're Gone? I guess it's our doing, either much or little which consumes the human psyche. We evaluate ourselves and others by the 'doing' factor. It stands in contrast to trusting God's doing. We have been gifted with life (no doing of our own), every...

    How can there be life after death?

    Evidence is never a persuader for those who refuse it. We can see that from the accounts of the religious leaders regarding Jesus. That said, nobody can dismiss or evade the evidence of the Spirit's work on the hearts of all mankind without consequences. When people reject, it is a conscious...

    Luke 11

    Learn primarily of Jesus; his methods, his words, his travels. Be patient with yourself and don't jump to conclusions prematurely. All will fall into a cohesive perspective in time

    New to the forum.. is the new testament the most reliable current bible??

    That which is of first importance is to KNOW that Jesus is your Saviour. Let this knowledge underpin and determine the rightness or wrongness of all you learn.

    What was the mark on Cain?

    What to say except I don't think you get it. .....and I can see by your reply you think the buying and selling has to do with economics? Whenever has the conflict / war going on between Satan and Jesus working through their respective followers ever been about economics? Was Jesus crucified...

    What was the mark on Cain?

    I'm sorry Anchorite but we see differently.....and it's the difference between seeing or not seeing that determines the priority embraced.

    What was the mark on Cain?

    Rev. 13:18 speaks of him who has wisdom....and I guess this means the ability to discern what is being communicated Wisdom and discernment are bedfellows ....and you ain't gonna get it by consulting a dictionary, thesaurus or translation of Ancient Greek. Here is a parallel re wisdom....If you...

    What was the mark on Cain?

    That is for you to figure out Peter. Wisdom is like the oil five virgins were told to buy.....cuz without oil there is no light or light that is going out. Speaking of 'oil' could it be SAE 30? C'mon, read between the lines! Hear what the Spirit says to the Churches!
