Fallacy of Composition.

Excellent reference, @strepho

Paul thought so. Here is his nugget concerning truth. 2Ti 2:15-18 Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman who accurately handles the word of truth. (16) But avoid irreverent, empty chatter, which will only lead to more ungodliness, (17) and the talk of...

I like to dispel the notion that music and singing in church services is the only way we have of worshipping God. Speaking out the anthem of the heavenly elders is a great way to worship God. The correlation between riches in the first column and thanksgiving in the second column is...

Believe the Bible. Peter discerned Satan filling the heart of Ananias whose selfish motives resulted in him lying to God. Act 5:1-5 Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. (2) With his wife’s full knowledge, he kept back some of the proceeds...

I'm saying typical of the display oriented paradigm imbedded in some denominations.

I've been on this site since 2009, using Scripture to advise of Christian doctrine, rebuke or reprove false doctrine, correct doctrinal error, and instruct in righteous, and No, I'm not done yet. John saw many things in the vision he was given on the island of Patmos. These things are what he...

While Christ was on earth He always did the Father's Will. Heb 5:7-10 During the days of Jesus’ earthly life, He offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the One who could save Him from death, and He was heard because of His reverence. (8) Although He was a Son, He...

It's not my view, it's the Bible's.

You might know the acronym B.I.B.L.E. Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. So we ask ourselves this: What does the Scripture say? What does the Scripture mean? How do I apply the Scripture? Here are some Scriptures for you that attest to the relevance of Scriptures to everyone today...

Hopefully you will allow the Scriptures to speak to your heart: 2Ti 3:16-17 All Scripture is God-breathed, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, (17) that the man of God may be perfected, thoroughly furnished to every good work. 2Ti...

The Book of Revelation is so called from the English meaning of the Greek word apokalupsis from whence comes the term APOCALYPSE Strongs Concordance ἀποκάλυψις apokalupsis ap-ok-al'-oop-sis From G601; disclosure: - appearing, coming, lighten, manifestation, be revealed, revelation. Total KJV...

Satan, known as the dragon, causes the wickedness in humanity to flourish. That wickedness peaks in the final conflict, and is depicted in Revelation 13 as a seven-headed beast rising from the sea. Isa 57:20-21 But the wicked are like the troubled sea, which cannot rest, and its waters cast up...

He hasn't accepted defeat, but we are told in the New Testament not to give place to him, and that if we resist him he will flee from us. Eph 4:26-27 Be angry, and do not sin. Do not let the sun go down upon your wrath, (27) neither give place to the Devil. Jas 4:7 Therefore submit...

Satan is on the prowl. He likes to growl. His deeds are foul. His demons howl. Don't throw in the towel, or despair with a scowl. Choose a vowel to spell the word owl.

Humans are not demonic forces, but demons and demonic forces can influence humans, oppressing or possessing them. Jesus cast demons out of many people, most notably the Gadarene Demoniac. Here are some references to supernatural activity impacting people: Eph 2:1-3 You were made alive when...

Fight against demonic forces: Eph 6:12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.

You must fight, and press on @MatthewG 1Co 9:24-27 Don’t you know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run like that, that you may win. (25) Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown...

Here we go with motivational verses: Jer 12:5 “If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, then how can you contend with horses? Though in a land of peace you are secure, yet how will you do in the pride of the Jordan? 1Pe 4:12 Beloved, don’t be astonished at the fiery trial...
