    Are You Saved Because You Believe OR Do You Believe Because You Are Saved?

    Belief is sometimes confused with knowledge. Just knowledge will not save you, as even the demons "believe" and tremble. His sheep hear His voice, but they also FOLLOW Him. It is called abiding. John 15. Abiding is like the consummation of a marriage, where you become one. And it all starts...

    Could the disciples have lost their salvation?

    Let's see your scriptural example of someone who has died from such a curse to physical death. Unfortunately you are not rightly dividing the meaning of flesh. It always surprises me when Christians don't know that the carnal nature is called "flesh." There are two meanings for flesh. The carnal...

    Could the disciples have lost their salvation?

    Luke 22: 31 And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. 32 But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren.” 33 But he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You...

    Could the disciples have lost their salvation?

    Only that the apostles were men God knew would endure to the end, even unto death. But we must also endure to the end, and cannot take it for granted as some today do.

    Could the disciples have lost their salvation?

    John 17: 11 I am no longer in the world; and yet they themselves are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name which You have given Me, that they may be one even as We are. 12 While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name which You have given Me; and...

    God's Word tells Us =Jesus IS God!!

    I gave up denominationalism in 1970. After that, the Spirit lead me to the full gospel and I was baptized in the Spirit in 1977. Our New Covenant is whole, nothing has ceased. I hope you realize that Cessationism is a denomination in itself and is man-made human reasoning to delete items from...

    God's Word tells Us =Jesus IS God!!

    Just a few years ago I prayed that God teach me HIS meaning of His Word, that denominationalism may have perverted. Since then it is amazing how my understanding has exploded! I suggest everyone pray that prayer.

    God's Word tells Us =Jesus IS God!!

    One thing I find interesting and even profound; I was filled with the Spirit and saved before I knew Jesus was God! I guess you don't have to be a biblical scholar to be saved, like some who believe only Trinitarians can be saved. ;) God is bigger than that. I believe we will be surprised to see...

    God's Word tells Us =Jesus IS God!!

    I was past 30 years old, and had gone to church all my life, when I read this verse and received the epiphany that Jesus is God. I even wrote it in the margin of my Bible. When I was young and in the Seventh-day Adventist denomination until I was 23 years old, I was taught that Jesus used to be...

    Street Preacher cries out: The soul who continues to sin will die

    Have you noticed that there are many people who use the modern versions that do not include the rest of Romans 8:1, the 'condition,' and believe that all they need to do is believe in Jesus, and they can sin up a storm and still be saved?

    What is Your All Time Favorite Sermon?

    I have two. Both by Dr. Jack Hayford when I was a member of The Church On The Way in California back in the late 70's. The first one changed my life. It was called Integrity of Heart. I was in love with a married man, and had absolutely no power in myself to stop seeing him. I tried many times...

    So, What is our personal standing?

    It is based on our ministry. We are all to spread the gospel. 1 Corinthians 3: 5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one? 6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor...

    So, What is our personal standing?

    Well, of course, I don't believe it is money or riches, but gifts of the Spirit for ministry.

    What I found amusing is he said it was "ONLY" 25 1/2 hours.

    The name Antichrist in the Bible

    Yes, it is a spirit of antichrist that can affect many. As I said, there have been many past leaders against God's people.

    The name Antichrist in the Bible

    Yes, I too am reading "man of sin" literally. I also see him as the Antichrist of the last days, though there have been many like him in the past, such as Nero and Antiochus Epiphanes IV, and maybe Hitler.

    The name Antichrist in the Bible

    I disagree. I think John is clear that there is "the" Antichrist, but anyone with that same spirit is antichrist. Also Paul. 1 John 2: Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the...

    Seventh Day Adventist Beliefs

    Yes, that is at the second coming. The alive didn't go in some secret rapture 7 years prior.
