    The Great Falling Away will be caused by......

    Just adding possible causes for the Falling Away that was absent in the post. These are some minor and individual stressful consequences of the GT that would cause one to lose hope and gal from their faith. But those who persevere to the end will be saved. I don't see how this passage, that...

    The Great Global Reset.... is the Great Tribulation

    The altar of Pergamum is in the Berlin Museum. Interest, at Obama's Democrat Nomination in 2008, he had this Throne of Satan duplicated..I remember reading something a out it having the designed measurements and combinations thereof equaling 666 inches for small structures like the podium and...

    The Great Global Reset.... is the Great Tribulation

    Sounds plausible, but keep in mind Bible history has always centered around Jerusalem. And all nations will attack Israel in this GT. The Beast has manifest itself many times in history: Babylon, Egypt, Assyria, Medo-Persian and Roman empires.The Beast warred against Israel each time, enslaved...

    The Great Global Reset.... is the Great Tribulation

    "Then the second angel sounded: And something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood. 9 And a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed. > Literally physical destruction if the world will...

    The Great Falling Away will be caused by......

    Finish your sentence, " ... caused by ...." What? I could offer some ideas. More seemingly unending pestilence, total collapse of the economy, wars, famine. Yes, we are in the "beginning of sorrows", just prior to the Great Tribulation. This will cause many to lose faith and fall away. Was...

    Could this be the system used to enforce the mark of teh beast globally?

    Well, the mark may be part of a future vaccine. They already have the technology: ID2020 and partners launch program to provide digital ID with vaccines And given the likelihood that the purpose of the pandemic is to not only condition us with mask wearing in order to buy and sell, but prepare...

    Do Christians have to forgive everything no matter how bad the sins?

    Forgiveness releases the ill feelings and suffering brought on by the sin: the anger, the animosity, hate and grudges. These are detrimental to us, they block us from experiencing peace, joy and growth. So the forgiveness is not only for the one who sinned against you, but it is for your...

    God's Word does ""not"" teach that baptism is essential for salvation.

    Not water baptism! But salvation, the spiritual transformation happens when we are born again - baptised by the Holy Spirit. Actually being baptised means immersed into the name of the Father and of the Son and if the Holy Spirit. Water does nothing, it is symbolic for the spiritual washing...

    You asked what are tares. The spellcheck switched it to "rates". In the scripture I posted it changed it to "far as". If you read the rest of the post you should habe seen "tares" twice and figured it out since that was your question. Of course you may know this and just are trying to be a smart.

    Rates are weeds that resemble wheat. "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed on his field; but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then far as also appeared." Matt. 13:24-26...

    Not only the unbelieving Jews are legalists, but there are tares amongst the wheat in many churches who are.

    Those who deny Eternal Security

    You apparently aren't reading what I wrote I said the message was to Christian- Jews and unbelieving Jews. I talked about the theme of the entire book of Matthew, being a letter to the Jews, presenting Jesus as their Messiah? KING OF KINGS. It begins with the genealogy from David to Christ...

    Those who deny Eternal Security

    "By their fruit you will know them" certainly applies to all believers and non-believers. But then the scripture identifies who is saying Lord Lord by their claims of prophesying, casting out demons and doing wonders in His name. That is Jesus one commandment to us --- that we practice and fail...

    Of course not but your post reflects that, it was your argument against OSAS. You chose the passage and now of course you back peddle. It is a function of Christ! He promised eternal life if we believe in Him, follow him. He didn't make those promises with strings attached: "If you believe in...

    Those who deny Eternal Security

    So you agree that if we are truly born again, we cannot lose our salvation! Good OSAS! Compare the concept that the Church and Christ are one as a husband and wife to "He was manifest to take away our sins and in Him is no sin". What does that have to do with us having two natures: one...

    Those who deny Eternal Security

    This verse is misunderstood - often. If you examine the context, you find out that Jesus is speaking to Jews, those who lived under the Law, who never came to Him. He did not have a relationship with Him ( "I never knew you"), and therefore did not love, act charitable to His own (Christians)...

    Peter put his foot in His mouth many times prior to being born again on the day of Pentecost ... and then less afterwards. I don't think this is a good argument for eternally security though. Being born from above, sealed by the Holy Spirit is eternal. If we are born again and somehow could lose...

    Pre-Destined Elect - simplified.

    It appears that a teacher of the Law, did not understand what you are talking about when Jesus said in John 3:3 that you must be born again to enter the kingdom of heaven. He didn't understand. No one was born again until after Christ died for our sins. Then His blood sacrifice was imputed to...

    Pre-Destined Elect - simplified.

    Galatians 4:21–31 is an allegory about Abraham's two wives, and the two sons. Paul shows the difference between being born into slavery, by human effort, as opposed to being born into freedom, by the work of God through the Holy Spirit. Ishmael was born into slavery and cast out when the child...
