    The Resurrection is for all people (thank you Yeshua!)

    The blood of Christ was universal made for all people. The only sin that remains is disbelief and is not forgive in this age or the age to come. Scripture claims everyone will come to confess that Jesus is the Lord. Some people say that this will come by force from God. My objection is God...

    The Resurrection is for all people (thank you Yeshua!)

    @CadyandZoe Its understandable you have given scripture, which you see as objective truth, so is it in the first post. The question is what do you tell the grieving person who just had a brother lose his life? Wasn’t it Jesus who promised resurrection in John 5:28-29? How do comfort them...

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    Gotta love people who judge others either way it goes. Can’t hold grudges just because people may dislike another human being. God is good and we are called to love others. However some may see themselves in authority to other people. Sure we have government authority. The only spiritual...

    Objections to Sola Scriptura

    Yes it’s important to read the Bible. It’s the only way to build up faith. Romans 10:17 So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. This isn’t trying to put authority on anyone it is simply encouraging people to go and read the Bible, the more you read it out loud to yourself...

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    That is awesome you got out of Calvinism, never heard of it before until a couple years ago, you act as though you have personal authority and can say what goes and what doesn’t go as far as your own understanding. This is why I’m thankful for the liberty in Christ allows to be free, and we are...

    Objections to Sola Scriptura

    Hey that stuff happens out there and truth can be pretty ugly. That is why the sola scriptura doesn’t work. Reading the Bible does.
  8. MatthewG

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    You’re already a Christian, so who needs to teach you @Christophany? Aren’t we meant to go and help those who struggle and have problems and point them to the only solution?

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    It’s so easy to manipulate people, more than anything like people who believe Jesus looks white and perfect with a smile or that he is super built and tough from his carpentry work. None of that is true.

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    The thing is, the true authority is God. The Bible is great, love it, but people try to use it as it as their “authority”, Sola scripture is not even in the Bible like the word trinity. There is 2 Timothy about all scripture but that scripture is talking and referring to the Old Testament...

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    That does help a lot! It will help many people out there, but the Sola Scriptura doctrine is more dangerous than actually reading the Bible for oneself to experience the fulness of truth all together around brother!

    Objections to Sola Scriptura

    Okay, do you need an example? Say there is someone out there right, and they are underneath a cult leader. The cult leader tells the person - if you do something that your eyes can not look at and I catch you, I will gouge your eyes out because this what the Lord had said. The person the cult...

    Objections to Sola Scriptura

    @farouk, when you mention about the Holy Spirit it is important to remember what the Holy Spirit causes, it is not that it will not go against the Bible - but it will not go against what the spirit produces. The Flesh it self causes opposite of what the Spirit desires to cause. That is why it is...

    Objections to Sola Scriptura

    Don't you dislike that when a person comes up to you, and they explain this and that which they have been spend time doing and everything is going on in their own life, then they ask you about yours and you say very little compared to them, and then the continue on about what they are going to...
  15. MatthewG

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    No, this is my first time ever seeing it. Just wanted to prove a point. I do not care to really watch this type of thing. I used to, I already know what I believe personally.
  16. MatthewG

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    I agree with you about the resurrection being very important to salvation in which a person become born-again, doesn't stop people from debating about it though... That is why I hate when you come in and start debating or what feels like debating and also slandering people falsely, but you...

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    Sure it is, people debate about it all the time.
  18. MatthewG

    Romans 10:12-21 (Encouragement Video)

    It is up for debate, @Christophany. Literally everything is up for the debate in the Bible just about it.

    Objections to Sola Scriptura

    Why can't we just say, read the Bible?
