    Eternal Life is a Harvest Reaped by Doers of Good

    Sorry, I don't accept your view. You lack discernment. Probably a Catholic. Your view is legalistic. Jesus saves us. We are sealed by the Holy Spirit. I don't think you know what that means. I'm done here, no use to continue.

    Eternal Life is a Harvest Reaped by Doers of Good

    You are not discerning scripture. You are missing that God gives rewards for the people who are already saved. About Romans 2 12 For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law >>> So far this is unbelievers...

    This is the true gospel .

    I don't agree that works save us. Jesus did the work on the cross. What works did the man next to him Do? He confessed and believed. People come to Christ on their death bed. Salvation is a gift. It is free and laid in full.

    Eternal Life is a Harvest Reaped by Doers of Good

    Faith in Christ's sacrifice and resurrection. That is what saved means. Secure, sealed by the Holy Spirit. You must be born again to enter into Christ and the kingsom of heaven. No. The scripture is clear - did y you read it. We are saved by Grace through ... not by works. We are justified by...

    This is the true gospel .

    A little bit more concise: "For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures, " 1 Cor. 15:3-4 The wages of sin is death. The good...

    Eternal Life is a Harvest Reaped by Doers of Good

    Absolutely! God has prepared good works for us to do! He works through us. He makes us holy. We cooperate and participate, but Jesus gets all the credit. "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should...

    Did Charismatic movement injure Church?

    That is a good point. What I learned about spiritual gifts is that they are mainly used to help others, not for personal gain. Tongues is a prayer language for personal edification. Unless there is an interpreter of tongues, how could anyone know what the message means. Prophecy is more...

    Did Charismatic movement injure Church?

    I never understood the things I've heard about these churches that handled snakes, barked like dogs ...weird stuff and why would that be spiritually beneficial? The wave of people collapsing going through the crowd? "Are they all pretending? ... Is this real?" I went to a Benny Hinn convention...

    So, are Daniel 7:25 and Amos 8:11-12 related in prophecy?

    Yes, spelling ... actually it was much less than half, he only read 8 lines of 60. He probably won't accept the rest anyways.

    So, are Daniel 7:25 and Amos 8:11-12 related in prophecy?

    Gee, I wasn't even done yet - just finished, pressed the wrong button have way through.

    So, are Daniel 7:25 and Amos 8:11-12 related in prophecy?

    I'll take a crack at it. The Antichrist will soon be revealed and is here now. He attacks the saints, persecutes them, kills them. This is the Great Tribulation, a 3 1/2 years period. The Rider (Antichrist) on the White Horse already went out to conquer and has - almost. He was given a crown...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Considering the Helper, Who contains all the attributes of God and lives in us, who do you think He is? Comparing the attributes of God, the Holy Spirit offers the same: He teaches, guides, councels, leads, gives truth, hears, speaks, is all powerful (omnipotence), searches all truth which...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    That is true. But do you deny that the Father is not the other Helper (Holy Spirit) that Jesus promised the Father would send? "And I will ask the Father. And He will give you another Helper, so that He may be with you forever." John 14:16 This Helper also called the comforter is God, Whom I...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come." Matt. 12:32 When the Pharisees accused Jesus of healing by the power of Satan, that was blaspheming the...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    To Non-Trinitarians, While you argue about Jesus not being God ... those who speak against the Holy Spirit, denying that He is a person even, will not be forgiven in this age and the next. He is God. He is a person who dwells in the believer, that is those who are baptized by Him. He teaches...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Wait a minute, that conflicts with your OP. If you are a Jehovah Witness, how could you write the OP? I know that it is a dead end road to debate with a JW, useless, so I will bow out. P.S. I missed the last paragraph ... You were just pretending - don't do that I don't know you well enough.

    Proof that Jesus is God

    In response to "Jesus raised himself from the dead", you said: You are blind to that concept. John 2:19 John 10:18 Correct. Jesus pre-existed with the Father and the Holy Spirit, which by the way raised Jesus. Check that out, all three raised Jesus. But God became a man and relinquished His...

    FORGIVENESS

    Dont beat yourself up. I dispise liars and thieves, people that manipulate and use others for their own personal gain. The toughest thing is to love your enemies. GOD loved Jacob and hated Esau. And how did He once judge the world with a flood. Let Him be the judge. I comfort in then fact that...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Get ready, He is coming. If you are not ready to bow a knee and worship our Lord and Savior, then I guess you will have to wait and see what happens.

    FORGIVENESS

    Those were lessons you needed. Now maybe you will discern the tares among the wheat. We all have had hard lessons in trusting people. I have someone in my family who is a leech, always with her hands out, expecting everyone to give and for God to provide for her as well without her willingness...
