    And who is part of or is to be a part of the Body of Christ?

    This is as false as can be. It's no wonder you react so strongly to the truth. You are WAY out there...accusing God of of doing what evil men did. Apply all your censures to yourself. That would be the beginning of some discernment for you. Acts 2:23 Him, being delivered by the determinate...

    Can Only Mods Solve This Problem?

    Here's the thing. This is not a church fellowship where heresy is censored or church discipline applies. As long as the heresy doesn't break forum rules how can it be corrected? God has ordained that the wheat and chaff grow together. That the grain and the pebbles remain in the sieve. There...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    This was only true before Jesus Christ. You didn't get the memo? Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. He made all men ONE in Him. There is now no distinction between Jew and non-Jew.

    Are Joel Osteen and his wife really Christians?

    All people are not under grace. That is a universalist error. There are two standards that God will judge by. Holiness...and righteousness.The church will be judged against holiness (Be holy for I am holy) And the world will be judged by how they treated (loved) their neighbours. (The royal...

    There are many spiritual believers that don't understand how God will judge the world...outside the church. Some will read about the BEMA judgment in 1 Cor. 3....and assume ALL people will be saved...even as through fire. But this is to mistake the judgment of God's house with that of the...

    It's just that believers are not judged along with the world. There is a different standard to grace than to the law. 1 Cor. 5:12 What business of mine is it to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? There is a judgment for those who are inside the...

    ADDING WORKS:

    A warning to the OP 1 Tim. 6: 3, 4 If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that accords with godliness, he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for...

    ADDING WORKS:

    Don't be discouraged Mark....just put the offending person on "ignore"....we live in a world of filthiness. We can't just leave the planet. Part of the training of a seeker of God is to learn how to cope with the unsavoury elements who do violence to the law of God. We have not suffered the...

    ADDING WORKS:

    You are smokescreening again. Get it over with...tell us plainly... Are we to follow the teachings of Jesus? Are Gentiles to seek the kingdom of God? Try to be honest...

    ADDING WORKS:

    Correct me if I'm wrong....but you get offended with HR because he has such a disdain for the righteousness which is of God. But you shouldn't take it personally. But rather pray for him...and they who see...or don't see...as he does. The blind can be made to see. The ears of the deaf can be...

    ADDING WORKS:

    A very good post and point. There is this disconnect between "feelings" and "evidence". It is a smokescreen.... a salesman's trick to suggest that a lack of evidence is just a lack of feelings. So if a man prays to raise up a dead person...but that dead person doesn't arise...does that mean...

    ADDING WORKS:

    What have you been smoking...or drinking? ;) Nobody believes what you are saying about the law of Moses. Everything you say of me is true of you. You are fully misrepresenting the case for the true gospel. You are against obedience to Christ...the words of Jesus Christ... you almost admitted...

    ADDING WORKS:

    So your testimony is that you do not have the Holy Spirit working through you. You are as any man without God...but with an opinion ABOUT God. So you walk in your own power and not by the Spirit. Your error is so big...because it is fundamental. You are limited to a man's walk WITHOUT God...

    Please explain this.

    Good post... Right on about the OT. And in the NT we have this new element..this new kind of life and walk...introduced in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. A seemingly obscure man but from heaven. And this event in history changes everything. Matthew 13:17 17 for assuredly, I say to you that...

    Can't find an old thread of mine. Help please

    Thank you for for fine and kind words! You are a blessing. :) <><

    I am wrong, I am the sinner

    This makes no sense. Where does the sin nature stay alive if we have died to it? There is a reality gap here. Accepting bible verses as truth is one thing. Learning how they actually work together in reality is another. Is this another way to say that humans can't stop sinning by grace?

    The house of God has already passed through judgment by the time the GWT judgment comes around. 1,000 years before. The Bema seat judgment. So you are mixing in two judgments into one. Judgment begins at the house of God. Israel as a nation would have already been judged along with the...

    ADDING WORKS:

    Actually HR teaches that we are not to OBEY Christ...just make Him our sacrifice. Otherwise it's works according to him. Ask him yourself.

    Are Joel Osteen and his wife really Christians?

    O the show, the spectacle..the circus like atmosphere.. it's just....not really very deep. If the modern denominations are like fast food franchises...then Osteen's church is Dairy Queen.

    Are Joel Osteen and his wife really Christians?

    At a certain level....very beginner level...he would be within the scope of what is acceptable. But it's still not the gospel. So he's a gospel preppy of sorts. Candy floss theology.
