    The Amazing Christ

    Yes, I agree with what Jesus says here “‘Go ye in through the strait gate, because wide [is] the gate, and broad the way that is leading to the destruction, and many are those going in through it; how strait [is] the gate, and compressed the way that is leading to the life, and few are those...

    Satan - the most subtle

    Guess it depends on what you believe concerning the Bible, Bob. Many people love to be able to blame Satan, than themselves for their own choices. Whatever you wanna do friend, take care.

    You Probably Believe This Lie

    Is there a choice to walk away from God, by my free-will decision? (Hebrews 3:12-15). But what is the lie that causes a person to lose salvation? Some could say that believe that Jesus Christ has already came back is a lie and a falsehood - and can cause a person to lose faith? That is...

    Satan - the most subtle

    I don't think Satan has anything to do with anything anymore. I believe people are tempted by their own desires and lusts that brings forth sin (James 1:12-15). I believe it is because of the darkness of this world (John 3:19), and not because of Satan, he is said to be done away with...

    The Changing Roll of the Church

    Most of the time, I believe that people pretty much did things verbally until probably the Gospels were gathered and created from Mark, Luke, John, and Matthew. They did have the Old Testament scriptures on scrolls that they read during synagogues (Luke 14:17-21). So I would agree with you on...

    Was Jesus Eternally Tormented?

    My belief tends to lead me to believe everyone went to hell at one point and time. Even JESUS when he died on the cross (Matthew 27:45-54), because he was yet to be resurrected (Matthew 28:6) and show that there will be more after this life. He was promised to be with the person on the cross...

    "fruit" of the Spirit

    Idk I just gave my opinion on. What do you think it means though for yourself? Think about this too @friend of : All through the Letter of Galatians, Paul is warning them to no go back and turn towards the Law but instead to continue in faith on the Lord Jesus Christ, and to walk and be moved...

    Exposition: Why "Absent From The Body/Present With The Lord" Doesn't Support Immortal Soul Doctrine

    No that is understandable, but what about those who choose to not care, @Enoch111. There will people who do not, was there not in Jesus's time as well?

    The Amazing Christ

    “But now you are free from sin. You have become slaves of God, and the result is that you live only for God. This will bring you eternal life. When people sin, they earn what sin pays—death. But God gives his people a free gift—eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭6‬:‭22‬-‭23‬...

    Was Jesus Eternally Tormented?

    Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord The souls that were in paradise and those in prison all had souls that lived in Sheol. Jesus describes the place very well, with the Parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man. “Yes, God...

    Not sure what kind of bird this is, it reminds me of a New York pigeon.

    Exposition: Why "Absent From The Body/Present With The Lord" Doesn't Support Immortal Soul Doctrine

    Yes. It seems to me God breathed into Adam a living giving spirit. And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. then the LORD God formed [that is, created the body of] man from the dust of the ground...

    Important information concerning prayerfulness, and thankfulness.

    Hello to you Reader, When you think about prayer, are there certain things that you ask for? Do you know who you can call out to with what Jesus had show his disciples? Are you also thankful? Thankful to God for the things that he does to the hearts and minds of you as an individual who decide...

    Just A Rant

    It’s amazing the psalm said that God is able to be there in even the toughest and darkest places. To bring forth people to have freedom from darkness and being blind to the truth of what Jesus has been able to do for people. To bring forth new life.

    Satan - the most subtle

    Would agree with you Bob, only the difference between me and most people who have read a bible, is that I believe the devil has been done away with as their is no law for him to persecute people anymore because of the Lord Jesus Christ having nailed the ordinances to the cross. Colossians 2:14...

    The Amazing Christ

    The only reason to ask is just to see what you may say. People can say that have read something, but also sometimes forget some of the topics surrounding with-in the contents of the book. As like for Revelation 4-5, for some reason brings my mind to seeing the Father and the Son together, as the...

    The Amazing Christ

    No one has the absolute facts, but there are things that stimulate and though through the Bible. Have you ever read Revelation 4-5, @Rich R?

    The Doctrine of Millennialism is destroy by Personal Symbolizing of Scripture.

    Can ruins peoples faith due to the fact that people do not have to adhere to traditional ways of thinking. Most things are taught by tradition. Anything that runs different than tradition - requires a break down and building again of once had ideas. Which everything of man can be shook down to...
