I get your point, don't proselytize. You can't force people to believe but a slap in the face may neede at times whether they feel insulted and their feelings get hurt. Isn't that what Paul did? He stepped on toes, balsphemed their gods, rebuked them, exposed their false beliefs and wickedness...

That is excellent whether you copied it from someone or it is your own exegesis. If it is the later, you must be a Pastor, not that this scholarly work shouldn't be shared on a forum like this, it's just that I don't see it. Normally we get the opinions from average lay people like myself. Most...

God bless you, you need a big heart to do what you do, with a warm smile, positive and encouraging manor. I am sure people appreciate your efforts - thousands. They will come up to you in heaven and say, "Hey, remember me, I was in the hospital and you helped me get through a tough time, thanks...

None of us is qualified to give medical advice, but I can advise you about natural preventive medicine. You are correct in wanting to discard many toxic substances that we are in contact with everyday -there is a long list. Eat organic as much as possible. Avoid processes foods, fried foods in...

My father and his wife had a son who chose to experiment with the boys up the street at a young age and he grew to enjoy what they did. He became gay. I did not grow up with him so had no influence in his life. My Dad worked two jobs and so did not have an eye on what Tommy was up to until years...

Share Romans 1 with them. Tell them God will let them go (cut them out) too. God is merciful and forgiving, giving us many opportunities in our lives to come to Him, when He draws us, when He calls, but He alone knows who His sheep are. Those who are not, He lets them go to their own demise. One...

I did mention we are responsible to care for our own bodies and that includes whatever is in our power, ability or a doctor's - then leave everything else up to God. Frankly, I don't trust Big PHARMA. I use natural cures, am 65, been to the doctor about 6 times in 40 years only for antibiotic...

Well dirt is made out of atoms, but really what is being stayed here js that our bodies are composed of 17 or so minerals found in dirt. If you leave a body to decay, eventually it will turn to a pile of dust - same minerals it was made from ... except for people like Biden, Pelosi, Schumer...

We are spiritually healed by faith. Jesus healed people who had faith in Him. Remember in His home town, people had a different attitude and doubted. Faith is necessary for any kind of healing. The recipient doesn't necessarily need faith for healing to take place, the minister does though...

Not the same person! 3 persons = 1 God. God transcends all dimensions. Jesus has all authority and so that alone proves He is the All Mighty God, omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent. In Hebrews 1, the Father refers to Jesus as God. We do call Jesus the Creator. As you mentioned John 1, also...

Aionios has variable meanings. When applied to temporal things, especially the physical world, this word should be translated as ages, lifetimes, generations, epochs - but NOT ETERNAL! When it is applied to God, His domain and our salvation, then it means eternal. Death and Hades will be thrown...

The Holy Spirit sanctifieds us - He makes us holy. We can't make ourselves holy. The light shines on our darkness and reveals it to us. We learn over time to hate sin. It's a process. We are being tested and refined as we mature. So your willingness to pray everyday and asking for guidance is...

Judas betrayed Jesus at exactly the right time _ after being with him over 3 years ... and that was part of the plan - it was prophesied. He didnt make him do it, he knew he would, allowed it, and Satan entered him as if cooperating with this Divine plan, the sacrificial death of Jesus. It...

Allowing things to happen and controlling the outcome. Because He is in control, the bus won't hit and kill a person whom He has a plan to fulfill. So whether He whispers ir shouts ti his mind ir the drivers, He controls the situation. He might just take me anytime - I'll say thank you You...

Right. And ALL who reject Christ and do not believe will not be saved and the wrath of God abides in them.

I am neither a Calvinist nor an Armenian, but am one who thinks free will is not so free. We are either slaves to God or slaves to Satan. If we were free, we would not be accountable for our sin, nor would there any judgment. We could just float off into our own spiritual realm after death...

Look at what you are saying. "He does'nt cause or manipulate events." So He has a prophetic plan but does not cause it. He just let's life progress as it will, let's the pieces fall as they will and all the pieces just happen to fall perfectly in line with this plan without His causal power...

If evil did not exist, would we know what mercy is? God would not need to demonstrate mercy. Frankly, I don't believe we could have known God as we do without knowing evil.

When I say everything, I mean the significant events, not clothes you. Choose to wear, food to eat, but certainly a job, a move out of state, a marriage, friends, particular people that come into your life as a witness, or to minister at a certain time. Your decisions and what actually...

That's just It, It was all a lesson. God wants us to do good and man continuously fell into sin. And He sent a remedy, opened our eyes and now we can choose good over evil. Job's mistake? Wait a minute, I thought you said that was a parable?
