    What did Jesus die to save us from?

    Man's view that God is as an Uber Pharaoh, a reality that overtly operates by tit for tat. This view has informed a faulty picture of God, subsequently robbing man of any real security......particularly in the religious arena. God's efforts to correct this view have also been doggedly dragged...

    What did Jesus die to save us from?

    The meaning of the expression 'paradigm shift' is underestimated/ misunderstood/ dismissed. The term 'born again' is precisely a paradigm shift. It primarily means one cannot arrive at any meaningful conclusions by employing the natural principles of man which are based on denial and the...

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    The crusaders believed the bible and went out slaughtering wholesale.....I guess they didn't believe it the way I do.

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    Firstly, what 'many' call anything is not authoritative and secondly, the 7 year tribulation is a misplaced interpretation of the many My question pertains to a direct explanation from the scripture of the term 'God's wrath' I am not asking if God's wrath is man's wrath which man superimposes...

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    Genesis 2:5-6 'Now no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth, nor had any plant of the field sprouted; for the LORD God had not yet sent rain upon the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground. But springs welled upfrom the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground.

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    The story of Noah ie, his boat, his warnings and the flood are types which mirror end time events. Salvation is for all men but who will go into the Ark? Is Salvation restricted because there's not enough room? From memory it was calculated 475 cars would fit on one deck on Noah's floating zoo...

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    2 Peter 2:5 tells us Noah was a preacher of righteousness. What do you think Peter meant by that, what was Noah telling any who listened? ..and where did Peter get his information? .......or could it be that Noah was giving them lectures on baptism or preterist logic? :)

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    Isn't 'us' separated from God quite different to God separated from us? I guess that begs the question what is wrath, in particular, God's wrath? Do you think the scripture might explain it?

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    You mean Noah was building a boat the which had never been seen before......the size of which no doubt took decades and nobody made any enquiry? I suppose my guess work would include him telling the people what he was up to and why. Do you think they laughed at him telling them water from the...

    What is the one true Church?

    Yes, I understand, they are catholic facts who have based their reality on out of context cobblings; they are not the facts as presented in the scriptures. The guardians of Israel, the religious elite did the same thing, they used scripture and killed the Prince of Life

    What is the one true Church?

    What he is trying to do is nullify an institution given in Eden to sinless man by using scripture out of context.....that is/ are the catholic facts the which the greater majority of Protestants decidedly go along with.

    How to stop confessing sin.... another view.

    yes, Jesus knew what men would do to him yet he submitted to them nevertheless......for in this God revealed his glory (in submission) In this love was manifest....where being pushed to the limit by men and demons he did not retaliate with overt power and force. That's why Jesus didn't die in...

    How to stop confessing sin.... another view.

    God's justice and God's wrath has a different flavour to that which you are attempting to portray. The flavour you are trying to portray is that of the deductions of sinful man; ie that of the world where revenge needs to be extracted and appeasement takes the form of blood before the scores...
