When believers don't know what sin is, they need instruction in the word of God. And nowadays there seem to be many called Christians who aren't certain about whether homosexuality is sinful or not. When I came to faith some sins fell off me automatically and miraculously, a work of God, but...

In response to my comment you said there is nothing to SEE here, so I just reminded that we are to walk by faith NOT by sight. :)

They should correct their child, and train him/her up in the way they should go. Amigo de Christo gave a good example of how his father easily dealt with a potential problem, and it was not abusive and worked. What you shouldn't do is encourage and "support" your child to go in the wrong...

Walk by FAITH, not by sight.

But the church has a responsibility to teach and preach God's word...to build up and strengthen itself, it's members. For example: Heb 3:13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

His church is NOT of this world.....our citizenship is in heaven and we are strangers and pilgrims just passing through this world. Here we have no continuing city but we seek the one to come. And He said His kingdom comes not with careful observation but is within us. In THIS world ye will...

No doubt there is truth to that and we all need to look in the mirror. However keep in mind that the gospel is going to be rejected by most no matter what we do or how loving and compassionate our attitude is. We're not here to fix this broken world, but to rescue a few souls out of it before...

He was doing miracles.....many crowds in the beginning but didn't you read how many stopped following Him as time went on. That Matt. 11 scrip is similar to where He says He played a dirge and they wouldn't mourn, so He played a jig but they wouldn't dance. You can try all kinds of approaches...

First of all he is Baptist, so likely cessationist and hasn't received the Holy Spirit since he believed (if he ever did truly come to faith). So limited power and limited understanding at best for that reason alone. Secondly I notice he isn't preaching or teaching the word of God, only...

I'm sure Jesus would and does treat everyone the same, though with individual variations based on what an individual uniquely needs, sometimes rebuking, sometimes speaking kindly. He ate and drank with sinners of all sorts who allowed Him to. He would have preached the gospel of the kingdom...

or they can come to Jesus and allow Him to clean up their life. He came to save, not to condemn sinners, and it's so sad that unfortunately most would rather keep on sinning and enjoying their passing wanton pleasures for this short little life, rather than grabbing onto the life preserver that...

The truth often hurts doesn't it..............but we need to love the truth above our selves. Otherwise prepare to be deceived and deluded.

It would much more useful to see what GOD says about the matter so let's look into His word: 1Co 6:7-11 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded? Nay, ye...

I already spoke to that, and I think you know very well that is not the attitude or actions of those who are truly children of God. What those parents did was criminal and abhorrent, and not reflective of Christ and true Christianity, or true Christians.

The devil tempts by putting a thought into a child's head, and then the child chooses to believe what the devil said over the truth. That is what happens to all human beings to cause us to fall into sin....ALL have sinned, ALL have FALLEN short of the glory of God. Same pattern as Eve happens...

Anyone who doesn't know Christ, being born again of the Spirit, is a lost soul, that is just a fact. As all believers once were before encountering the Lord and being born again. That is not judging anyone, any more than saying so-and-so is tall or is a life insurance salesman or wears glasses...

It's not for us to judge the lost. However, the question isn't whether Jesus would accept a sinner, but whether the sinner would accept Him and His word. I can tell you He didn't and doesn't embrace anyone's sins, whatever they are. He would simply preach the truth in love and leave it up to...

I'm not acquainted with the poster, that I can remember. His name is familiar but don't have any recollection of what he says or believes. I agree sister, that the gifts are given for the edification of the church, but that God could also have more purposes in the background so to speak. I'm...

Something to what you are saying here, I believe. People can be given spiritual gifts and go off and use them while basically forgetting God at the same time and not being in submission to Him. Eg, those who said Lord, Lord, who Jesus said would ultimately be rejected, apparently had spiritual...
