    Sinless Perfection. Why do so many teach against what Jesus taught?

    We can't. But God can. They do believe though. The believe the power of the flesh is greater than the power of God.

    Sinless Perfection. Why do so many teach against what Jesus taught?

    The righteousness of Christ is not a coat to cover unconfessed and unforsaken sin: it is a principle of life that transforms the character and controls the conduct. Holiness is the same as sanctification. Sanctification is complete surrender, giving oneself wholly and without reservation body...

    Religion and the NWO

    The forces at work in the Hegelian conflict of the world today in battle to rule the world religiously and politically, are religious forces. To ignore, set aside, or bury this indisputable fact is to place oneself in danger of being enslaved by the very powers that you are seeking to avoid...

    How much is petrol/gasoline in your area?

    Americans on this forum are complaining? The American dollar is worth nearly $2 Australian or NZ, yet the cost of petrol is half ours. We are paying the equivalent of $4 a litre more or less, multiply by 4.5 to get one gallon, that's approaching $18 equivalent per gallon. Okay, I'm not a maths...

    That is so cheap, ridiculous.

    How much is petrol/gasoline in your area?

    That's what I heard. Up to $4 for 98 in some places. Horrors.

    Mary the Queen of Heaven?

    The word Antichrist literally means, in place of Christ. Growing up myself within Catholicism and taught by Marist Brothers and priests throughout my young life, I could not avoid the stark reality of Marian devotion replacing Jesus as Mediator. One might argue that Mary is the mediator between...

    Mary the Queen of Heaven?

    Necromancy. Mary is dead.

    Young rich ruler not saved, why ?

    Yes, situational requirement for the time. I have done that very thing when God asked. Sold all excerpt my car which I needed to get where God was sending me. Today, everything in the house can go tomorrow and I couldn't care less. It would actually be a blessing. None of it would be a...

    Speaking With the Homeless

    Mmmm. Situational suspicion is endemic today, even in legislative guidelines for ministers and elders/deacons and youth workers in churches. I drive a school bus. So many rules is hard to act natural toward kids without protecting yourself from others thinking you are "grooming". Even being a...

    Young rich ruler not saved, why ?

    I disagree. Surrendering all to Christ can be done without selling it to others. For the time being, all we have is Christ's and is at His disposal. Soon, this world will demand and require all we have unless we surrender to the mark. Them the promise is we may then buy and sell. Survive...

    What is necessary to be a Christian?

    Here where we get into deep water. Yes, there is but one God. 1 Corinthians 8:6. But God sent His only begotten Son to the earth to redeem and free mankind from sin and it's consequences. That God sent His Son as His representative tells us that even to this day, we need and have a Mediator...

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    For every nation, tongue, tribe and people to receive instruction in righteousness, truth and discipleship with consistency and without compromise, in direct opposition to the current immoral whims and political manoeuvrings of the nations bowing down to the current ideological extremes of...

    Young rich ruler not saved, why ?

    “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. ” Matthew 6:24 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/Matthew.6.24

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    Making disciples in today's economy takes a lot of money, yes. But in today's political and legal mileu organization is essential.

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    It is true that the condemned are end up in the lake of fire, but what many people get very wrong, is that in the lake of fire they eventually die. The wages of sin is ultimately death. The time comes to all of them, including Satan himself, where the pain will cease and all conciousness...

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    Well, as far as the rapture is concerned, until recently there was no such thing as a rapture being taught. Until the 19th century, everyone was in agreement that what the church awaited was the resurrection. I'll run with that. Rapture theory and its timing isn't a hill worth fighting for...

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    The apostasy of the last days is merely a global continuation of the localised apostasy of earlier centuries. The great deception of the last days is in the global acceptance of man made doctrines that the church embraces. The great delusion lies in believing that God is actually with them. The...

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    Let us not allow this thread to devolve into an the argument over pre-trib, rapture, etc etc. This thread is about how the church in general is reacting to and responding to the prevalence of sin and open licentiousness at every level of society, including the church itself. You said... I...

    Spiritual Declension in the Church and in the World

    I intended it solely as a deterioration in virtue, declining spiritual awareness, general falling away from a former consecration into worldliness and desire for pleasure and money. In some cases, such as was that which affected the Catholic Church from even the earliest centuries, was a...
