Being saved can be seen from the point of view of applying for that salvation, not because that salvation was already obtained, since one has been saved from something that has already happened, not from something that is going to happen and is still in the future: Rom. 8:24 For we were saved...

Rom. 2:3 But do you suppose, O man, that while you judge those who practice such things and yet you do them, you will escape the judgment of God? 4 Or do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, because you do not know that God in his kindness is trying to lead you to...

According to Jesus that is false. Matt. 7:21 “Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of the heavens, but only the one doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens will. 22 Many will say to me in that day: ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and...

It is inconsistent to quote Paul with the intention of denying what Paul himself says elsewhere. Did Paul really believe that when the dead in Christ die they would immediately go to live with Christ in heaven? Ask yourself: did Paul believe that Christians who had died before were already in...

No one is free of sin ... and still lying is one of the causes of a person not entering the new world that God will bring (Rev. 21:8; 22:15; 1 Tim. 1:8-11). Anyway, this topic is not about LYING.

Rev. 21:8 "But as for the cowards and those without faith and those who are disgusting in their filth and murderers and the sexually immoral and those practicing spiritism and idolaters and all the liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This means the second...

Sorry, but honestly: I don't have to believe any internet story. We got a saying in Spanish: "el papel aguanta lo que le pongan." that is something like paper holds whatever they write on it.

Can you, please, stop talking about yourself, and start talking about Jesus' teachings? Fictional stories on the internet often come from self-centered characters trying to draw attention to themselves. It is the way to impress others that false shepherds often use.

Good question. You can ask yourself this one, and maybe you'll get the answer: If someone wanted to follow Christ in the first century, could they do it on their own or did they need the apostles of Jesus?

Make sure you weren't born out of the wrong father, like these guys here. John 8:42 Jesus said to them: “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and I am here. I have not come of my own initiative, but that One sent me. 43 Why do you not understand what I am saying...

Considering seriously what Paul says to the Thessalonians in 2 Thess. 2:9-12 ... I conclude that God delivers from religious lies and demonic practices people who sincerely love the truth and sincerely desire to do things the right way (John 8:32). Without a doubt, among the people Jesus refers...

I can understand how passionate you are about this matter. Without a doubt, if God gives someone miraculous power, who wouldn't feel privileged? But since there are so many deceitful emotions, psychological problems, and demonic activities that deceive many without their realizing it... you...

I am a JW. On one occasion I had to preach in a house where they practiced spiritism. My preaching partner realized that in an adjoining room they were doing a consultation with a spirit, so he told me while the person who received us left for a moment towards that other room. I told my...

Jude was not possessed ... Do you seriously believe that the holy spirit of God is a person, and that this person is incapable of casting a demon out of where he is?

Thanks. Then I ask: How is it possible that within a church so many people are speaking strange languages saying that it is the spirit of God, and among them there is someone possessed by demons? The logical thing is to conclude that in reality NONE of those people had the holy spirit of God...

We got many other testimonies about that modern practice. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/2010735?q=Gift+of+Tongues&p=par Do you think the questions these honest Christians asked are reasonable?

"Real Supernatural Tongues" ... according to whom? To you? Some of my brothers were Pentecostal before. This brother of mine related: Read his testimony here https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/101976528 I believe what my brothers tell. I don't believe any internet story, since internet is...

Yes, I do. I am polyglot ... Neither do you. In the first century not many books were written because they were expensive and it was a luxury so you had to speak a lot... in many languages so that the truths of the kingdom of God would be known in far away places on earth. Today there are...

Well, if you are able to speak languages, you should also be able to write them... Why don't you show us the languages you know how to speak by writing them down? Then someone will be able to translate, as Paul says: 1 Cor. 14:5 Now I would like for all of you to speak in tongues, but I...

Two of the purposes of the first century "gift of tongues" were 1) to identify the community that truly had God's full support, and 2)to rapidly expand the truth of Christ's kingdom to territories with different languages. What today is called the same, does it fulfill any of those purposes?
