    It is what it shouldn't be

    Do we need to define knowledge first? awareness or understanding especially of an act, a fact, or the truth : actual knowledge in this entry. b. : awareness that a fact or circumstance probably exists. source: A dictionary Knowledge is an awareness of facts, a familiarity with individuals...

    The Color of Righteousness

    Hi Biblica I must say that I do see some problems with your statements. I'll address two that I read above... you could reply or not - I have no desire for an argument but only discussion. I agree with you that some become transformed overnight and for some it takes some time. I just don't...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Yes. Salvation is a gift and is to be treasured and taken care of. We can know right now, at this moment, that we are saved. There is no way to be sure that we will be saved at the time of our death.

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    There is no gospel in the reformed faith. No need for one. God will be doing all the choosing - not the person. So what could there possibly be for a gospel that would bring them to salvation?

    WATER BAPTISM CAUSES DIVISIONS

    Jack,,not that I disagree with you,,, BUT baptism does not have to be mentioned in every teaching in order for it to be a command. Romans 10:9-10 is speaking about what saves us - initially. No need to mention baptism with every paragraph of scripture. If it is mentioned only one time...that is...

    WATER BAPTISM CAUSES DIVISIONS

    No. Here is what I stated: JESUS COMMANDED the Apostles to baptize. He told them to teach ALL NATIONS what Jesus had taught and commanded. Baptism is a commandments. God does not make requests. It doesn't matter if Paul spoke about batptism OR NOT.... JESUS commanded and we must obey. Paul...

    What is the difference between the gospel to the Jews and the gospel to the gentiles?

    Micah specified which Bethlehem because there were two. Micah 5:2 2 "But as for you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,.... Second, Micah “stuck his neck out” even farther when he identified the city as “Bethlehem Ephrathah.” Few people probably realize that Palestine contained two towns named Bethlehem...

    The Color of Righteousness

    A carnal Christian is a contradiction in terms. Carnal means flesh. It means the person is living by the flesh instead of by the spirit. Paul warns against this in Romans. Romans 8:5-9 5 For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are...

    The Color of Righteousness

    What's a carnal Christian?? Is this akin to being a TRUE BELIEVER? One is either Christian or they are not. One is either a believer or they are not. A carnal Christian most probably is not Christian.

    The Color of Righteousness

    You do have a thread on your skin color, however. How about this.... How about we stop talking about racism and just treat everybody as if they were nice persons..... until they aren't anymore. No matter the skin color. Do you realize that the more you TALK ABOUT IT....the worse it is? Do we...

    WATER BAPTISM CAUSES DIVISIONS

    Paul also didn't say we should take a shower, but everyone seems to do this. So you believe Paul? 1. JESUS commanded the Apostles to BAPTIZE. Matthew 28:19-20 19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20...

    What is the difference between the gospel to the Jews and the gospel to the gentiles?

    Interesting. You most probably know that: There were also two Bethlehems at the time Jesus was born. One was in Judea and one in Galilea. Micah 5:2 2 "But as for you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, Too little to be among the clans of Judah, From you One will go forth for Me to be ruler in Israel. His...

    It is what it shouldn't be

    How is faith proof? IS faith proof? If I could PROVE something... why would I need faith?

    It is what it shouldn't be

    How are beliefs problems? Are you suggesting that there should be no beliefs? YOU believe there are no beliefs... so YOU have a belief too. You know Zbme... there are 3 causes of problems/suffering: US OTHERS NATURE I don't really know what you're getting at here, but it seems to me (which...

    Another possible terrorist attack thwarted...seven arrested in Sydney as police ram their car

    It was not linked! Depends what one means by linked. Maybe the two groups were not linked by group... but they were certainly linked in INTENT. The PM of Austrialia looked dumb and weak and weakness feeds evil. Only after a few days and much criticism did he state that Australia needs to...

    What is the difference between the gospel to the Jews and the gospel to the gentiles?

    Certainly, Abraham was called out of Ur to establish a new religion... to establish the new teaching that there is only one God and to introduce that new God. To start fresh,,,,sometimes a person has to leave their current invironment. I don't think a tradition is the same as an embellishment...

    What is the difference between the gospel to the Jews and the gospel to the gentiles?

    Agreed. Agreed. As you must know...the Didache and the Epistle of Barnabas (not to be confused with the gospel of barnabas) almost made it into the NT. (canon). Never read Fox' Book of Martyrs...sounds like I should have. Yes sir. This was his entire trip. He did dislike all that idol worship...

    What is the difference between the gospel to the Jews and the gospel to the gentiles?

    So could we accept Catholic tradition too ?? Sounds like Abraham ran FROM something and not TO something. What say you?

    What is the difference between the gospel to the Jews and the gospel to the gentiles?

    Neither one of us is an Apostle. Do you realize that this is a special designation meant ONLY for those that walked with Jesus? Do you realize that to be included in the NT, the writer had to have known Jesus or an Apostle? Because you witness does not make you an Apostle. Because a person can...
