Prophecy, including who is written in the Book of Life could not be fulfilled exactly as He planned if He was not sovereign (having all authority and in control of every event). All events leading up to that moment must be in order. One thing out of place and it effects the outcome. It would be...

"He is before all things and in Him all things hold together. " Col. 1:17 "In whose hand is the life if every living thing. And the breath of all mankind?" Job 12:10 "One God and Father of All, Who is over all and through all and in all." Eph. 4:6 " Man's steps are ordained by the LORD ..."...

If anyone, uncludingbSatan could mess up His plans, prophecy could not be possible. For it is fulfilled with hair splitting accuracy. All the names in the Book of Life could not exist if it was not true. The only way it could be true is that He ordained it precisely. He is all knowing. Your...

All authority in heaven and earth means God is in control. Supreme power to influence His will iver creation exactly how He plans is control. If God doesn't have control, the word does not exist.

That is what sovereignty means. If Satan was able to do whatever he wanted without God allowing it, he would be able to alter God's plan and the world would be in chaos. In other words, God would not be in control. Satan is the Father of lies. He is also the accuser, he lures us into...

Do you think the devastation that happened to Job was just part of a broken world? Satan can't do anything unless he has God's permission. As with Job, everything short of his death was approved by God. Either God is sovereign or not. Again, scripture says He created evil: disaster, woe...

In Him is no darkness, doesn't mean He doesn't create evil outside in the world. I didn't contrive the scripture. He said it and scholars translated it. Which version do you hold dear? God is sovereign and so He chastised, punishes, judges, destroys, kills. He gives life and takes it away...

God disagrees with you! Evil is created by God. In the following translations of ISAIAH 45:7, we see evil, calamity, woe, doom , disaster, troubles, etc., however you want to slice it. CEB I form light and create darkness, make prosperity and create doom; I am the Lord, who does all these...

The Holy Spirit is the only teacher we need - if we have him. ??? But when we first become Christians, we need to receive guidance, education, preferably from a pastor with at least a Masters degree in a Bible based church. One can go off on a tangent if your Pastor does not teach sound...

You are leaning on yournowm understanding. Apparently you are in denial of your flesh -where sin dwells. You still have it. You sound like a young Christian who has not done any amount of self discipleship, examing yourself, Confession. We are at an impasse, can't go any further. You need...

I am in agreement with everyone of those scriptures - with a few different interpretations though. Confession for a Christian is essential, we are told to confess our sins lest we be arrogant and prideful. Those who do not confess their sins lack humility. Confession is the process that God uses...

Well, you are among some who believe that we do not still have the flesh and sin that dwells therein, memories of our old self, old habits. We are in the spirit, IN CHRIST, but the flesh (sarx) wars against the spirit. Are you just a spirit floating Around? We died to the flesh, are no longer...

Casting out demons was considered healing ... and so? I don't get your point. My point was angels don't heal but by the power of God who ordains it. So you think Jesus was crucified because Satan didn't want him around to save people? You actually brought up a good point. Satan was fooled. He...

Yes, Satan can appear as an angel of light. I would say Joseph Smith witnesses that. Right, bad fruit is produced by evil doers I believe all healing comes from God if an angel stirred up a pool that resulted in healing, it. Waa from God. Angels are ministers. Jesus healed in a variety of...

I like that vision. Good question, people always ponder what it will be like. I think it looks like earth, only perfect, more brilliant colors. We look at a beautiful object from a distance but as we get closer, we start seeing flaws, defects. We see that in each of us, in the animals, we see...

Paul struggled with this same problem as everyone does.(Rom. 7) It is a war between the flesh and the spirit. Not to worry, Satan is defeated, he just tries to trip us up. We are in Christ, sealed by the Holy Spirit.

The state of the socio-economic world is approaching the New World Order. History proves that it has gone through many changes. But the foundation of the world was quite different when God made it. You could not prove anything about it. What we see now is what the world has suffered all through...

When the Bible refers the the heart of Man it is referring to His invisible self, soul, the his physical heart. You possess invisible qualities. Your soul is your mind, will, emotions all if which are not something physical. Thoughts can be transmitted by Neurotransmitters, but ideas and thought...

Man is not an animal. We were made with far more intelligence, abilities, talents, creativity and in God's image. What is God's you may ask? We are made with volition, a rational mind, emotions and a spiritual compartment. The TOE is false, based on guesswork, not facts.

He doesn't go out if His way for any reprobates, they are already judged considering He knows the future, whether they receive Him or reject Him. Romans 1 explains that He lets rhem go to do and be what they want.
