Who are you referring to when you reference God? The trinity (whatever version thereof you may align with), the Father, or the Son? Can God die?

No, a thousands times no. The Son of God never had any tendency or desire toward evil. Potential yes, desire... that's blasphemous.

You guys are confusing the word propensity with capability. They are very different. By saying Jesus had the propensity to sin you are maligning His true character. I do not deny that He had free will and was capable of sinning. PROPENSITY an inclination or natural tendency to behave in a...

The following prove that the authority the Popes claim as belonging to them, going back over a century, is far wider than applying to just "faith and morals" for Catholics. What "common good' means, is that if the church decides that what you own is too much, they have the right, even the...

I couldn't agree less. What sacrifice was it for a father who could simply create another? What loss? What risk? But scripture says that God so loved the world, He gave us, humanity, His only begotten Son. The Father sent His only Son to live and to die. He sent Him into this world. If scripture...

You need to study the actual meaning of the word propensity. I agree He could have sinned. And if He had, He, and all humanity with Him, would have been eternally lost. There was a huge risk for both the Father and the Son in taking on the burden of redeeming fallen man. Jesus did have within...

Indeed. And not a hint of surrender, unlike Brakelite

It wasn't. The rift was over the subject of this thread. A refusal to recognise the Pope as supreme authority. That will change. The future global religion will include both. The Pope will be recognised as the global ruler over all ecumenical members, as well as all eastern mysticism...

We should pray in the same manner as we would share confidences with our best friend. No need for putting on airs and graces. Prayer is actually very simple. Honest. Real. Sometimes raw and emotional. But never goes unheeded. The following is an excerpt from the preface to a book called...

Do they? Please elucidate how someone is danger according to your church. Using scripture of course. He did. And there were only a little over 100 members. By 70AD, there were thousands. But yes, still united in doctrine and faith. After 70AD, the 'church' which escaped Jerusalem before it was...

I note the studied reluctance to admit to churches outside of the purview of Rome. Why is that?

Christ had no propensity to sin. He did inherit the fallen nature, but unlike us sin was totally abhorrent to Him and there was not the slightest bent or appetite or tendency to sin.

I will speak only for myself. This by no means is a rule for others. I first became a Christian in 1976. I was 23. I had been smoking weed constantly, and later growing and selling from 17. Then I met Jesus. The next day I thought a walk across the farm to my favourite lake and a joint by the...

And the Assyrian churches of the east, and the Celtic churches of the West. All trace to the Apostles. It isn't about whether or not they had their roots in the Apostolic age. It's about the various influences and circumstances that led to the great falling away in Rome of a church once faithful...

H I have been an Adventist for 27 years. I came into it on the basis of scripture. Since then I have read and heard many attempts to discredit, tarnish, and prove the advent movement false, and Ellen White a liar and charlatan. But that one above, I haven't seen that before. And it's going on...

The principle reason for opposing Catholicism is its teachings regarding the nature of God, and the gospel of salvation. The pagan connections, its history of persecution, the ritualism, and relics, statuary and icon reverence are but incidental evidence thereof,and the inevitable fruits of...

I think the fruits of Paul's ministry may not have been in people's perfect understanding of his theology, but with changed lives. In early Acts just after Pentecost, evidence of the veracity of the message was seen in the understanding of the Hebrew language by the many foreigners in the city...

Just for some encouragement and affirmation as to how important sharing our testimony is.... KJV Revelation 12:10-11 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast...

No. It's not that. The early Catholic church very quickly developed a full and complete dogmatic justification for persecution of heretics... And official sanction for this was granted then by Justinian. And the Vatican still believes they are fully justified in persecuting unbelievers and...

An article I wrote several years ago on the Word based on the following scriptures... Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Psalm 33:6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth...... ....9 For he spake, and...
