Hi JLB Yes,,,I've always believed this but am beginning to consider baptism. But it does make sense to me... one has to be born of flesh: Body and soul and then also spiritually: Spirit Thanks!

No BF. I have a low opinion of the Reformed/Calvinist faith that attributes to God evil and the sins of man. I guess you didn't catch the sarcasm. Be assured of this. God loves all of His creation - us. He gives to each and every person the opportunity to become saved or He would not be a...

Yes BF. At least you admit what Calvinism teaches. I respect this. God is responsible for all evil and for the sins of mankind because God predestinated everything including everything that happens to each person. coffee:

If you know Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek you should grace us with your knowledge instead of using Strong's. Dontcha think? I know a Christian theologian that speaks 7 languages and he does NOT use Strong's. If I remember correctly....you might be questioning the divinity of Jesus. So I'll ask you...

1. I've already replied to those verses you keep posting. Do you read any other verses in the bible or just those? 2. You don't have to believe anything. But you should remove the designation of Christian under your avatar so that others will not be confused as to what a Christian is.

Actually Christian Soldier, it's rather blasphemous to believe that God created evil and predestinated all acts of mankind... even sinful acts which makes God the author of sin. Also, you seem to lack knowledge... You seem to be unable to understand what JUSTICE means. Could you give your...

Christian Soldier,,, If you are UNABLE to distinguish between the books, or do not take the time to do so,,, it means that you're not well versed in this topic. The Book of Life is a list of all saved persons. A name in the Book of Life can be blotted out. Let's try again: This is from the...

You see BF,,,, you're so indoctrinated you can't even see what's right in front of you. But it's OK....all reformed believers are like this. Jesus doesn't seem to happy with those that are cut off... So MAYBE HE didn't CAUSE them to be cut off?

Here's 1 Corinthians 11:27-29 New International Version For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves. New Living Translation For if you eat the bread or drink the cup without honoring the body of Christ, you are eating and drinking...

You didn't post scripture. There are two different accounts about a fig tree. Jesus wanted to curse the fig tree that DID NOT BEAR FRUIT... this is because Jesus expects us to bear fruit otherwise our faith is useless. James 2:17 17 So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces...

You jump to too many assumptions and it's very difficult to post to you. There is no such concept of a creed being Catholic, Lutheran, AoG, etc. Creeds are for all CHRISTIANS. You do not accept any creed, developed by the early church to affirm what Christianity believes, because you are not...

nedsk.... Understand what I'm saying.... If someone does not accept that the host is the actual body and blood of Jesus it does NOT make them become unable to be saved. If the bread is the actual body of Jesus,,,,then that is what they're accepting EVEN WHEN it is being done as a symbol. It is...

Well Behold... We do agree about something! Ain't that always the case. Now if we could just get ALL Christians to ALL believe the same... it would be wonderful. How about a Protestant magesterium? sml

Love your avatar! Here's the problem: Persons that write CHRISTIAN under their avatar and then do not hold to ANY mainstream Christian beliefs should not be allowed to use the title CHRISTIAN. Christian means something very specific. A person cannot give Christianity a definition that is...

Jesus said it BF.... NOT me. Jesus said that if a branch IN HIM does not bear fruit... it gets taken away by God....the vineyard keeper. If you want to believe that it's a failure on Jesus' part... so be it. I believe it's a failing on the part of the believer that does not believe that good...

I'm not debating the Eucharist. I'm saying that you cannot condemn a person because they cannot bring themselves to understand something the same way you do. CCC no. 1271 VII. THE GRACE OF BAPTISM ⇡ The sacramental bond of the unity of Christians ⇡ 1271 Baptism constitutes the foundation...

We are instructed to have the same mind as Jesus.. To think as He would think.... To behave as He would behave. I wouldn't say this is the same as having the same fullness of God. Are you a LDS believer? It's not that God is not able... it's that we cannot have THE SAME mind as Jesus. That...

Listen carefully.... Jesus said to eat His body and drink His blood. If He meant this literally, and I think He did,,,,then it is good for the CC. (I'm not Catholic BTW). If Jesus meant it metaphorically, then it's still good because we all must believe in Him and obey Him. §What you're...

You judged my state of salvation 2X that I can think of. We can judge the behavior of a Christian or Matthew 18 would make no sense. However, we are not able to judge the soul of a person... only GOD can now the state of a person's soul.

The other member stated that we are like little Jesus'. Jesus did NOT require exhortation to behave properly. WE DO. So I'd like the other member to explain how we are little Jesus' IF we need to be told how to behave.
