    The Oddities of different teachings through organization(s).

    So thank you for your encouragement @Earburner, cause that is all you seemed to be doing while we were talking about Topics dealing with Revelation, and Topics dealing in other matters. I don't have to accept what people talk about on this board, but can be understanding in why people believe...

    The Oddities of different teachings through organization(s).

    I may not fully agree with everything you may say, but I love you either way it goes in Christ, @Earburner. People have the choice to make on their own to seek out God in faith, just as much as the rest of us human beings out here in the earth. Some people don't have bibles, they only have...

    Just going along with what you are sharing here my friend. Believe me I believe that Jesus Christ has raised again, by God. I believe that people are believers in Christ are now the temple of God - in which the Spirit of Christ dwells, and the Holy Spirit of God. While in this life people who...

    Heaven Or Oblivion: Natural Man Theology

    I believe hell was a real place, it had two places in it (Paradise - and the prison part), but according to the Bible it is done away with, according to John in Revelation 20:14, Robert. Yes, Hell was once a place, Even Jesus died and went there. Until it was done away with. That is why I do...

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    Still Prayed for God to take the thorn away, and it was not done. It’s message for us to understand that some things are not taken away, but I do believe things can be overcame by the spirit. Just we still f-up from time to time… no matter how perfect a person may see themselves by their flesh...

    Oh yeah? How cool. The Bible sure has a lot of wisdom found within it. Praise be to God for the Holy Spirit, and the spirit of Christ which indwells a person who choose to believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of the one God sent, down from heaven, who once was known as the Word, Jesus...

    Biggest thing about prayer is you are drawing near to God. Hearing your situations, I went in and out of church and prayed sometimes before I really became a believer in Christ. It doesn't matter how many hours you work, and sure do understand what you mean by burnt out. I do not think it...

    What is the purpose of prayer?

    James to his audience suggest they do the same James 4 New International Version Submit Yourselves to God 4 What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you? 2 You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you...

    Why did Jesus tell the thief he would be with Him in paradise that same day?

    everyone who died before resurrection went to hell. paradise and prison is part of this place but separated, Jesus went to paradise so did the man. The Logos of God went and proclaimed a message to those in prison. God rose Jesus after three days. Jesus spoke a parable about the place dealing...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    It’s just a view, as described in Post #11. No one has to believe anything, test information from the Bible and history. I don’t see the big deal. It shows no one has any authority over scripture that is why I asked the question. Most just claim cause they have a Bible they have authority...

    There sure is a lot to it. Especially when it comes to what a person believes, it’s always the word of God that helps transform lives.

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    Paul prayed three times, my friend @HIM, for the thorn to be taken away whatever it was. Even the Lord said that his grace was enough for him.
