No stump too difficult.

Huh? Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 2Pe 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should...

Are you suggesting something, Curtis? Not sure how objectively you are coming at this topic.

Yes, and the Christian that slips and falls into sin, rather than being cast away without remedy, incorrectly described as having fallen from grace, can access more grace in order to be restored. Heb 4:14-16 Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens...

Who Falls From Grace? Gal 5:4 You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace. They made a good start but were turning away from God who called them into the grace of Christ: Gal 1:6 I marvel that you are turning away so soon from...

Yes, Paul writes that only a right relationship with God can define a descendant of Abraham, spiritually speaking. "For no one is a Jew who is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical. But a Jew is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not...

No. The implication there is that being a Jew is the criteria for salvation, when in fact being a new creation through faith in Christ is, even for the Israel of God (Jews that are followers of Christ). Gal 6:14-16 But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus...

Case in point . . .

My observation after doing some time with this denomination is that their procedures, protocols, and programs are geared to authoritarian oversight for the sake of organisational dominance. They are not unique in this, but along with the vehement ceasationism by some it was an obstacle and...

Context first. Then application. 1Pe_2:5 you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 1Pe_2:9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special...

Simply for not being predetermined for salvation according to Calvinist diatribe.

Yeah, I was just messing around with my post about the Nazarenes . . . although Act 24:5 For we have found this man a plague, a creator of dissension among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.

Nazarene. Mat 2:23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, "He shall be called a Nazarene."

A little over thirty years ago I was given medical advice to drink more water. I was told that the nature of my outdoor work was such that if I didn't rehydrate regularly I would continue to suffer the painful health problems that had led to my seeking medical attention. I am now fastidious...

As the Lion of Judah and the Lamb that was slain . . . and much, much, more.

Believe the bile? That threw me . . . until I realised it was a typo. Bible, phew!

And then there is the Book of Revelation . . . disclosing further horrors to come at God's command.

I appreciate Paul's epistles more every time I read them, which is every day.

The entire Bible is the Word of God. If not it's just another book.

Of course. Still does in my sector. God's equipping of whomever with supernatural powers and the mandate to use them is a lesson in itself. Elijah had good reason to prove the superiority of God given the scenario. Believer's Bible Commentary 2 Kings 1:2 King Ahaziah fell through the...
