Those issues I addressed are all linked to man's perception of the character of God. That is the issue at stake here. And it began in heaven with a war of words and slander and politicking over whether God was worthy of ruling the government of heaven. Lucifer thought he could do better and...

You will never convince me there is not a supernatural spirit, along with numerous others,at work in this world. Not only are they referenced and addressed in scripture, by Jesus Himself, but throughout history many have experienced him in real life, both in league with him and as resistance...

Charlie Kirk's death is a case in point. Why do evil things happen to good people? Why do evil people get rich? Why do evil people get away with murder? Why is there so much pain, suffering, death in a world that God presumably rules over? Right? These aren't easy to questions to answer, and...

The real personal choice has been the same for 6000 years... Since the fall in Eden. Accept the everlasting gospel, ie the everlasting covenant, and live, and not die. Joshua gave Israel the same choice. “And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve...

With the utmost respect, I suggest there is an answer. Theodicy isn't an easy topic to understand, but there are biblical and reasonable answers to people's questions regarding the problem of evil in the world, and why God seems to allow things to continue so long without any seeming justice or...

You are placing conditions on a freely granted redemption. We have no need of qualifications nor do we need to meet certain criteria or conditions in order to receive Christ into our lives and be forgiven. Obedience, sound theology, good works, not one or any of these are essential to receive...

No. It isn't doctrine. They are commandments. What is doctrine is the way we respond to them. Or teach how we ought to respond to them. God says we must obey them. That's doctrine. But there's the rub. How can we obey, knowing our utter weakness and human frailty and the depths of carnality that...

Very wordy self defence which completely ignored the main point of my post. You used one random unconfirmed conversation with a pizza worker. No information regarding his experience or understanding of Bible doctrine, nor any information as to how long he had been a Christian, let alone a...

And that's the thing. William Miller did not set the date. Daniel 8:14 set the date. Miller just happened to find it, and he rang the first. “And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed. ” Daniel 8:14 KJV...

You have. Except that not once, other than repeating about date setting, have you explained why the investigative judgement is wrong. Post 200.

As they have long loved and long followed that which cometh of man and NOT OF GOD . me and an Sda person they are LOST Is this kind of rabid generalisation and condemnation on an entire church community on the basis of the testimony of one pizza worker even allowed on this forum?

Your point being.... Not sure why you are so fixated on that word 'fulfil'. One cannot express his love for Jesus by fulfilling anything. By obeying His commandments, yep. That's what He asks is to do. In response to His asking you to obey Him, do you say, " Lord, Lord, I can do all manner of...

Yes I can. Not that it ought to be so necessary. First, context. Your issue clearly is with obedience. Specifically, obedience to the ten commandments. You question whether they apply to you or not. The Ten Commandments, called the covenant, were housed in the ark of the covenant, otherwise...

Moving house is a tedious exercise. All blessings to you guys. How you're new place becomes a true home...albeit temporarily.

Of course death is everlasting, unless there's a resurrection. Death is also a punishment. It's final. It isn't ongoing. It is not punishing. It is punishment. You say I do not believe in scripture. You say that destruction is not in scripture. I beg to differ. DESTRUCTION KJV Psalms 145:20...

I agree. The punishment, which is death, is forever. Therefore no resurrection from the second death. Note well. The scripture does not say never ending punishing, as in continuing action. It is punishment. And death, after a time (few or many stripes) of real suffering, comes in the form of...

And yet the early church did anyway. Maybe they knew something you don't. He fulfilled the whole law, which included the other 9. Doesn't mean we are free to have intimate relations with our secretary, or go off on folk who cut us off in traffic. Hebrews 4 certainly speaks of rest in Christ...

It isn't surprising that there are some here who don't recognise that the above is written by a Christian, simply because he doesn't claim to be. They don't recognise humility, possibly because they haven't experienced it before... Either in others or themselves. While it is true that we may...

If Christ is your Saviour what have you to fear? He is coming to take you home. Not to punish you for sins He himself bore to the grave.

The first death is inevitable, the second death isn't. It's our choice to accept redemption or not.
