    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    As long as souls aren't in jeopardy. Didn't even get into the Holy Spirit ... blaspheming Him is the final jeopardy answer.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Jesus relinquished His glory temporarily while He emptied Himself into a human vessel. He came as a humble servant to be the sacrificial lamb, obedient and submissive to the Father as an example for us to follow. Then when He accomplished His task, His glory was returned to Him. The Father said...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    He said, "Before Abraham existed, I Am" That was a reference to Exodus 3:14, in God's introduction to Moses: Tell them "I Am" sent me to you. It was the Pre-incarnate Christ Himself who spoke to Moses. Later He would reveal Himself fully as the Great I Am. I am the Way, the Truth and the Life...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Well, sort of. But a blind person can give any reason under the sun, not to believe. It doesn't matter what the reason is, they are not capable of seeing the truth until God lifts that veil. That is one of the reasons the Pharisees wanted Him dead, because He claimed to be equal to His Father...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Not about the fundamentals/essentials of the Christian faith. As far as the non-essentials, things we see dimly, of course. To me, we can be certain of some things, hold onto to them and other things take time to understand. God gives us truth in bits and pieces, gradually. Some truth we are not...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    What the soul intent of spreading the Gospel? Isn't that supposed to change minds and hearts, leading one ultimately to a spiritual change? The Bible is filled with dos and don'ts, in irder5 that we follow a righteous path and renew our minds. God draws a person to Himself. He orchestrates...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Really, is this your quote that reflects openness to change ... flexibility? "We’ve had this conversation before. You haven’t changed your mind and I haven’t changed mine. I respect that." You know it's odd that in 32 years I've never met a Christian that adamantly or even mildly claimed to...

    Thanks, but I'm not at all riled, just brushing the dirt off my sandals and moving on. There is no reason to hang around, as he said, he won't change his mind, it's futile.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    The KJV was the most popular. But any translation that would describe the Son of God as "it", needs to be chucked! I'm done.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    No, you said the Geneva Bible is superb and it is your choice and it says "BY Him": "For by him were all things created which are in heaven, and which are in earth, things visible and invisible: whether they be Thrones, or Dominions, or Principalities, or Powers, all things were created by him...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    The Geneva translation concerning these verses is way off the mark: "All things were made by it, and without it was made nothing that was made. In it was life, and that life was the light of men. And that light shineth in the darkenesse, and the darkenesse comprehended it not." Look up the...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Physically _ begotten, born of the virgin Mary ... but not His Spirit. He was with the Father in the beginning. For "in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God ... and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us." John 1:1 &14 ..."who being the brightness of His...

    I just gotta know.....if one will answer....lol

    1. No, but we should use something because if you have a nice Amish Oak kitchen table and nice marble coffee tables, you don't want coffee stains. 2. Yes. Covid got the rest of the lazy people to develop that habit too! 3. My wife won't let me, she gets rid of it. I'll use my towel for couple...

    We’re the two witnesses from the past?

    Your analysis sounds good. But how does the Antichrist murder two churches filled with millions of people who are supposed to lie dead in the streets of Jerusalem? It doesn-t fit the story. The two witnesses are the ones who have supernatural powers, causing droughts, plagues and fire comes out...

    We’re the two witnesses from the past?

    Nope. The two witnesses preach and evangelize the Jews during the Great Tribulation for 1260 days. This supports the remnant Jewish population that is saved in Romans 11. The two witnesses are murdered by the Antichrist and left dead in the street for 3 1/2 days, while the world - filled with...

    They are without excuse

    I am not sure I follow ... Hell reward? Wages just means judgment. Jesus paid the price for 1/3 of the population, maybe more? But remember narrow is the gate to life, wide is the way to destruction. It's life in Christ or death. He is our Savior and that is what we are saved from.

    They are without excuse

    @ VictoryinJesus Right, God gave them over, He let them go _ to their own demise, DESTRUCTION. And destroy means to "put an end to", annihilate. The wages of sin is death. And death is both physical and spiritual. Matthew 10:28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the...

    They are without excuse

    I quote John MacArthur all the time, a great teacher. But I too have disagreements only with some of his teaching and style. A couple are: He believes that spiritual gifts stopped in the1st Century. That is wrong! He also admitted to being a 5-point Calvinist. I can't abide with that. Also, his...

    They are without excuse

    Knowing someone does not mean you believe in them. I know who Joe Biden is. Teenage gangsters ir drug addicts know who their parents are, yet did not believe what they taught them about good and evil. They dishonored them, did not abide in them. Many of them die young. The context of Romans...

    They are without excuse

    Faith and belief are inseparable. "Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, a conviction of things not seen." That is believing, based on evidence and you move forward with that certainty. So being unfaithful is not believing that "God causes all things to work for good". Yes one may believe...
