Compassion for brothers is doable, yet we fail at times. Loving your enemies is even more difficult. We are sinners. Jesus is like the Ark in that OSAS and so once you are in: "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor...

He chastised those He loves. Turning them over to Satan for a lesson is temporal. He did that with Job. But letting someone go forever is quite a different thing. Many have lived a life of hell on earth, persecuted by Satan and in the end came full circle back to God.

Well, we've had our bouts. I probably deserved some arrows of animosity shot at me. I have a tendancy to provoke people. Don't recall whether it was about Amillennialism, Non-Trinitarian, Christian Science or the Sabbath? I remember teasing you, telling you to go ask Andy for advice! ;) We can...

Romans 1:18-32 is talking about unbelievers whom "God let's go and gives them over to their sinful lives. These are the reprobates, not believers. "Since the beginning ..." is a reference to just about all humanity except 8 saved in the Ark. But after that anyone who continues to reject...

"THEY" are sinners that never repent, they continously reject and resist God. They are irredeemable/ reprobate. God let them go, (gave them over) to what they desire. He gave them ample opportunities to repent, He gave them all that is observed in the universe and all that is unseen and so they...

Jesus took pause in presenting that concept: Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility consider one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Have this attitude in yourselves...

Hi BarneyFife, how are ya? We can be united _ in Christ _ on a basic level. Remember when we were first drawn to God and He lifted the veil of blindness? We heard or read about the gospel and believed. We were young infant Christians and believed in God, the Creator and the Holy Spirit convicted...

Why don't you show us each scripture that pertains to Jesus fighting against corruption (in the gospels) without the Greek and Strongs? Actually maybe just save that for when you start the thread, "Looking For Matthew chapter 29" and I'll catch ya later!

I didn't pick up on that story about Jesus - "fighting corruption when He was on earth". He came as the "suffering servant", the 'Prince of Peace", "The Lamb Who takes away the sins of the World". John the Baptist, probably wondering why he was in prison, asks the disciples to ask Jesus a...

All this Greek and Strongs cut and paste is really tedious and quite unnecessary. We can refer to them for specific words. Spare us all having to read through a multitude of pages to get to your point. We know the story and history. The whole irony in this is that you, pretending to be a...

@TinMan @MatthewG "... But for Adam no suitable helper was found. So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man's ribs and closed up the place with flesh. Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man...

The first resurrection takes place during the Great Tribulation, at the last trumpet (which I believe is #7). Every eye will see Him coming in the clouds; and many who have been on the fence about Christ will realize they were wrong, especially the Jews who have been waiting for their Messiah...

Rev. 22 does not address your dilemma that I presented. Again, you implied that either all Christians during the GT will be beheaded or thr only ones that will reign are the o es beheaded. This is wrong. Billions who are alive during the Gt will be resurrected (raptured) along with those who...

Not audibly , but some do. I think God speaks to us all the time through others whom He uses to get a message to us, especially Pastors. The prophets did hear God audibly. He sent them on particular missions and so had to instruct them in detail what to do and say. Jesus came down and spoke to...

I agree with most of that except your implying that either ALL Christians during the GT are beheaded or that the ONLY ones who serve as kings and priests were the ones who beheaded. Let's examine the passage: "And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them." ...

That is after the Millenial kingdom, when the first heavens and first earth is destroyed. (2 Peter 3:10) Christians are priests. Raptured Christians receive an eternal body, which does not procreate. Yet there will be humans living long lives , dying, but procreation will continue. Obviously...

Yes. God will open their eyes. He blinded them for a purpose and they have been blind to this day. Romans 11 clearly says when the fullness of the Gentiles is complete ( that means just prior to His Second Coming), he will save a remnant. Likely 1/3 of the Jews, which number some 15 million. The...

We are body, soul AND spirit.The soul of the reprobate is judged. Christians are saved from the judgment of sins. You are either saved ( born again) or not. "And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly, and I pray Gid your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming...

Yes, I gree that our spirit is holy (set apart, purified, wearing the righteousness of Christ imputed to us). Yet our actions at times are fleshly. At this time I think it is crucial to examine how we are put together: body, soul and spirit. Our spirits were cleansed, yet our souls (mind, or...
