I believe you can. I believe I can. But to have faith and not doubt is actually really hard. Jesus said its a matter of faith but that, I think, does not just come naturally. Like your "end of age" comment, for example. Somewhere, someone mentioned or wrote that and you grasped onto it to...

So you haven't found a Scripture to back up your claim about the gifts ceasing, but you don't believe any testimonies about physical faith healing today. Sometimes, people with cancer are healed by faith. But if I had laid hands on someone and healed them and told you about it, you said you...

I disagree, brother. If all self-interest is bad, why does Jesus describe rewards in heaven?

You made the topic. You show me that it has ended from Scripture, if you can.

Scripture for this? Where does the Bible say that only the disciples during the first century could physically heal? Where does it say that that ceased?

John 14: 12-14 12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If...

So if I find the Scriptures, that will help the discussion?

He also gives believers the power to heal physical sickness in His name.

You clearly said Jesus no longer physically heals today. How are you figuring that there is no physical healing from the Lord today? You said you were skeptical. Why not doubt your doubts?

How are you certain that God never heals today? Are we just supposed to dismiss anyone who says they have been healed by God to support that belief? A woman from the Netherlands was recently healed at a service from a debilitating physical condition that left her bedridden and relying on...

Nothing that I could say was unique to me alone. I know Im called to follow Jesus, be a good wife, be a good mother when my unborn baby arrives, and look well to the ways of my household. I feel compelled to be a strong intercessor and extend hospitality as well. I love pro-life ministry and...

Probably not enough self-references. I am pretty awesome.

Agreeing that God and Christ are the ultimate good, I also believe that God gives us good blessings in life every day like the sun rising, rain, food, and clothing. I believe dwelling on these things and thanking God for them can keep us encouraged, despite all the bad things going on in this...

Thank you. You may be the first one on this forum to affirm my desire to encounter God like that.

I think seeking God's face is great. I meant, I wanted to see God's literal face directly. Im thinking of this verse... Exodus 33:20 KJV 20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

True. I only know one teacher like this.

Is life really ruined on the earth? I believe that Jesus' return will set the cursedness of this world right. However, there is still goodness in life left to experience. Phillipians 4:8 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just...

No. I think questioning people can often have a stronger faith from wrestling with hard questions. And I think God wants us to engage with Him honestly and "toe-to-toe". That would be unfortunate. I just don't think the right response is to assume that no religion is right.

I relate to this kind of zeal. Sometimes, I think I would like to see God's face, even if it destroyed my life. I love Moses' encounter with God and desire similar experiences.

Do you believe that believing in free will disqualifies you from eternal life?
