    Purgatory True of False

    That was a lot of work deleting all those off topic posts.

    Here is Practical Explanation about Next Life, Purpose of Human Life, philosophical/religious facts,

    I think your guru was here before. He believes himself to be equal to Jesus Christ. Jesus gave us Mark 13:22-26 so that we would not be decieved by an earthly false messiah.

    Found a good YouTube series

    I happened across this YouTube series from a ministry called Lion of Judah. I'm seeing some sound biblical principles here. This particular video is regarding warnings against the following which can invite curses: 1. Blood covenants. I don't know anything about blood covenants and rather they...

    Just curious....

    1. I have two memories that I can't discern which was first. One was a nightmare of a ghost popping up its head to scare me. The other was of the pediatrician and I was just past the point of being weighed on a baby scale. 2. Somewhat.

    TIME IS SHORT .

    Moving this to apologetics, everyone should still have access to this topic there.

    TIME IS SHORT .

    For additional evidence of Jesus' critical importance to enter the kingdom look to the torn veil in the temple upon his death. Symbolizing access to God by way of Jesus' sacrifice.

    TIME IS SHORT .

    The kingdom being within does not at all lower the standard of entry. Jesus also said "Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you." The advocate is the Holy Spirit, whom is needed for salvation.

    TIME IS SHORT .

    There is no substitute for Jesus Christ's death burial and resurrection. It is through his resurrection that we also have any hope of eternal life. His resurrection is real, and if it is reduced to an allegory so is our hope for eternal life. We are lead to believe in Jesus and repent before...

    The Greatest Imitation

    Evil should be translated as calamity here. There are some things we are not to imitate. Vengence is mine says the Lord. Also we are to bless and not curse.

    What should Christians think of UFOs and alien abductions?

    Yea, people often say they see a demon during sleep paralysis episodes. Seems impossible for those suffering this to be part of a mass hallucination.

    Jesus washing of the feet

    I was unaware that this was ever practiced outside certain Anabaptist denominations. Who do so because Jesus commanded it.

    A Closer Look at the Genesis Creation Account

    I don't enforce it to this degree. I only want to ensure that there is nothing overly critical of the Trinity and those who hold to it.

    Personification of the earth in scripture.

    I'm picturing earthquakes as physical manifestations of spiritual turmoil. Storms, the same thing. It's as though the earth has a tolerance for only so much iniquity then it spits out the inhabitants. An automatic mechanism for God's judgement? Perhaps it is a word spoken to the earth to...

    Personification of the earth in scripture.

    Then I used the wrong word, anthropomorphism would have fit better with the concept I was exploring here.

    What should Christians think of UFOs and alien abductions?

    What verses speak of an Nephalim in the end times? As it was in the days of Noah could be referring to it. But it is also vague.

    What should Christians think of UFOs and alien abductions?

    All the more reason not to share these conjectures which do not come directly from his word.

    What should Christians think of UFOs and alien abductions?

    If the gospel will not penetrate, will alien conspiracies? If they were so gullible to other nuggets of truth they would already be in some Scientology cult or something of the like.

    What should Christians think of UFOs and alien abductions?

    But who are they going to believe, their father of lies, or the crasy Christians?

    What should Christians think of UFOs and alien abductions?

    Simpson's May 4, 1997 "I was watching, I saw the whole thing: First it started falling over, then it fell over." So called Aliens are part of the picture and are clearly evil. Agreed pointing that out is pointless, as it will not convince anyone to die for Christ in the tribulation. But this...
