    The Rich man in Hell

    Part 1 The story of Lazarus and the Rich Man is a parable (Matthew 13:34). Once this is recognized the interpretation behind the narrative can become quite meaningful. It is also very important to note the context in which the parable is found. There was a reason why Christ spoke this parable...

    The 2nd Birth is a must have.

    Scripture also says.... NASB Act 13:48 When the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord; and as many as had been appointed to eternal life believed. CEV Act 13:48 This message made the Gentiles glad, and they praised what they had heard about the Lord...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    At least I have the knowledge for eternal life... Do you know the only true God who sent Jesus? Joh 17:3 "This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You (God) have sent. The God that Jesus heard from...? John 8:40 "But as it is, you are seeking...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    On the authority of Jesus himself we know that the categories of "flesh" and "spirit" are never to be confused or intermingled, though the course of God's Spirit can impact our world. Jesus said, "That which is born of flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit" (John 3:6)...

    The Rich man in Hell

    OMG! WEBSTER 1828 Dictionary VISION... In Scripture, a revelation from God; an appearance or exhibition of something supernaturally presented to the minds of the prophets, by which they were informed of future events. Such were the visions of Isaiah, of Amos, of Ezekiel, &c. Something...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    Like this??? Joh 20:17 Jesus *said to her, "Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, 'I ascend to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.'" My God!!! Jesus actually claims to have a God!!! Guess what John also tells...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    The Colossians Hymn In so far as it is used by the "traditionalists" to justify belief in a personally preexistent Christ, the passage in Colossians 1:15-19 ranks right up there with John 1 and Philippians 2. It is easy to see how this conclusion is reached, when the passages read in the...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    Spoken as one whom does not read scripture... But puts his brown nose where it pleases his Pastor! If we may let our Lord and King have the final word. Jesus plainly states, "the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be his worshipers...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    Scott… I’m no Jehovah Witness… But why do you post scripture that has nothing what so ever … to comfirm your point of view??? You speak of the Christ as if somehow that is another name for God, or it’s Jesus' last name! If you are the Christ… It means you were anointed by God! You cannot be...

    God is the Answer to all our Problems NOT the cause of our Problems!

    Really? Please show us... what your talking about?

    Understanding the Trinity.

    Spoken like a child... whom does not even understand that... He is showing scripture... that goes against his Church's written/documented beliefs. Allow me to show you... Who is the one that says Jesus Christ "did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself (v. 6-7)...

    God is the Answer to all our Problems NOT the cause of our Problems!

    Arthur P. Adams, author and publisher, was born November 29,1848 in Chelsea MA, the great-grandson of President John Adams. He was a Methodist minister whose independent study of the Scriptures led him to separate from his denomination in 1878. ALL THINGS ARE OF GOD by A. P. Adams There is no...

    God is the Answer to all our Problems NOT the cause of our Problems!

    Oh... Kinda like another free will thread... NASB Pro 16:1 The plans of the heart belong to man, But the answer of the tongue is from the LORD. CEV Pro 16:1 We humans make plans, but the LORD has the final word. NASB Pro 16:9 The mind of man plans his way, But the LORD directs his steps...

    The Rich man in Hell

    A vision is not reality, it is a way in which God communicates or instructs us. In the transfiguration, the message was intended for Peter, James, and John. Let’s take a look at some other visions. Genesis 15:1 says: "After these things the word of the LORD came to Abraham in a vision."...

    Melchisedec and How Jesus Learned Obedience and was Made Perfect.

    Then you have failed my friend! I'm not baiting you... I'm showing you in scripture that Jesus learned! Luke 2:52 How? By showing your understanding is proven wrong by scripture... Nothing more or less. It's up to you to do the research to find out why your view goes against scripture...

    Melchisedec and How Jesus Learned Obedience and was Made Perfect.

    Really?? Luk 2:52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man. He may not have learned patience Oceanprayers... But He learned! Unlike You.... who completely lacks wisdom! So... What have You learned? Paul

    The Rich man in Hell

    Did you really post this??? Come on Man! I get your view... Mat 17:1 Six days later Jesus *took with Him Peter and James and John his brother, and *led them up on a high mountain by themselves. Mat 17:2 And He was transfigured before them; and His face shone like the sun, and His garments...

    The Rich man in Hell

    Really... define the afterlife! Gen 2:17 but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die." You need to talk with God... Because Gen 2:17 is Sooo much better that burning forever! I mean how did we get from just...

    Melchisedec and How Jesus Learned Obedience and was Made Perfect.

    Now, you know what you sound like when you claim the title Christ... is literally Jesus' last name! Did Jesus take that name Christ from God his Father? Does God have a last name of Christ??? I think NOT!!! Think before you post! BTY, What do you know of Scripture? You only read...

    The Rich man in Hell

    Really... because the wages for sin is death... Yet you say the rich man and the beggar Lazarus just get to bypass this Law of GOD. They rose to life with no savior to die for their sins, as Jesus was still alive when giving this parable ! Please think before you post!!! (Ecc 12:7) and the...
