    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    @amadeus 1 Corinthians 13 1 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing...

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    I guess, you are very adamant about it, I dont think it deals with lack of faith. I believe it really does deal with the age and time we live in compared to there time they lived in. If people were still healed today, like they were in the first century, Ama, they wouldnt need to go to the...

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    There were many people whom were Christians, who fell away in that day in age - and they reverted back to the ways of the Law, and that is what the writer of Hebrews here is warning about. People do lose their faith still today but it may not be because of reverting back to the Law, however it...

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    What we agree on is the applicable circumstances which Jesus Christ, and the Apostles base one to focus their life on hope of being able to go and be with God after this life, while struggling in Christ, in dying to ourselves and raising with him. And if they wanted to be sasved from the wrath...

    The Orthodox Preterist versus the Heretical Dispensationalist

    Remeber when Abraham was told to circumscise his whole family when agreed to the covenant with God. That did show he chose them as his nation byt eventually due to whoredom; he would send his Son. Only circumcsion that matters today is the one of the heart not the old snip snip.

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    Im very much about people thinking critically, and studying the bible and looking at things even in history available to them. I dont really encourage people to just submit to what the bible says just cause it says it; study is so important otherwise you could get lost in what one may believe...

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    Alot of the misconception simply is that people believe the bible was written tiday for them and all of it pertains to them, which in my opinion is a mistake. Even so; i must love and respect my neighbor; although they could condemn me for saying no i dont believe the gifts of the spirit is for...

    I respect you and your family and everything @amadeus; however though you bring up a lot of questions and everything like that it is fine. I dont believe like I said ... healings happen today other than the healing of the soul by the renewed rebirthed spirit which is given to those who believe...

    Of course you still dont believe revelation has come to be yet, and we talked before on those things @GEN2REV unless you changed your mind.

    Jesus was not a Jew?

    There is people who claim to be from tribes but that doesnt mean its true. They lost geneology in 70Ad. No one can tell who is a jew by those standards anymore. By claiming im from the Kingdom of Judah. Kingdom of Dan, kingdom of Asher; so on and so forth. The only grafted in of jew is by...

    Jesus was not a Jew?

    Your points dont make any sense to me. Jesus was born of the line of david. He was from the Kingdom of Judah. Meaning Jew. You also didnt answer my other questions; So i dont expect youll accept my taking; which doesnt matter anyway. Wouldnt waste your time with me.

    Jesus was not a Jew?

    Perhaps in faith ; but that doesnt mean you should lay your hope on them. Jesus was not a jew; yet King David was, [4] David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years. [5] In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned...

    The English term Jew originates in the Biblical Hebrew word Yehudi, meaning "from the Kingdom of Judah". It passed into Greek as Ioudaios and Latin as Iudaeus, which evolved into the Old French giu after the letter "d" was dropped.
