    What Things Would you Like to See, Functioning In Church

    Great question! I am commenting on the title question purposely before even reading the things that you would love to see: I know that we are allowed to be the way we are--that is the purpose God has created the world, that all things good and evil should be revealed before the Judgement...

    What is God's "Plan" For You?

    I know that you want to control your thread--even peace, and I don't need to interrupt even if you are making errors that should be clarified. You can decide. But that is how it has been for much of church history. Nonetheless, knowledge increases and all truth is revealed. History now attests...

    Who has the authority…

    Peter confirmed what I have said. But you believe neither him nor I, but have chosen to believe those who have made a religion out of a lie in his name. You have believed a lie and your fate has been foretold.

    Who has the authority…

    I spoke nothing of my own, but repeated the words of the three which you reject, preferring your own three.

    Who has the authority…

    What I have told you Jesus, Peter, and Paul first said. Now I declare it to you and you reject it. Go figure, you are your father's daughter. I am finished with you--you are finished.

    Once Saved, Always Saved?

    Indeed...and the miracles continue, great where things are simple, but obscured in many places by the increase of knowledge. Imagine an iron horse seen for the first time--the sky may as well have opened up. But now, a man drops his phone and never knows if he was saved from being hit by a bus...

    Who has the authority…

    I have been telling you God's truth. If that sounds condescending to you...there must be a reason. The history of the church.

    Who has the authority…

    God knows. The point is--some were, just as it is written.

    Who has the authority…

    I was quoting scripture. God promised He would pour out His spirit upon all flesh through Joel the prophet, it was arranged by Christ, began on Pentecost, and was confirmed by Peter. These things are all written, just as confusion was, and strong delusion...under which you have been a...

    Who has the authority…

    See post #243 ...but No, not condescending...just the facts of what history will attest to, and does. PS...but Mary, do not squirm in disbelief--learn. You don't need even to hear it from me. It is now history.

    Who has the authority…

    Come on now--seriously--we started with Paul saying: 29 For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves. 31 Therefore...

    Who has the authority…

    I expect that it does not make sense to those who have been taught differently and adopted the error of "A" for men chosen for being the least of men, that Christ alone would prove worth. By the same (non-sensical) logic, you might also give all the sons of David an "A."

    Who has the authority…

    He would not remain with all who would take up the name of Christ and stand in the holy place, under the banner of the church.

    Mary is the tree of life!

    No, this kind of thinking, although intended to be honoring of one favored by God, only robs Jesus of His being fully human and qualified to take on the punishment for sin. So...if Mary was deity...Jesus was not the son of man.

    Zelensky Was Offered a Peace Deal to Prevent War but Rejected It, deal was to remain neutral =Swiss

    I'm not sure. Perhaps someone will chime in who knows for certain. I did hear an interview with Putin around that time where he claimed they were about to point nukes at them...where he reasoned that if Mexico or Canada did the same, it would be no different for the US.

    Who has the authority…

    Indeed, that poses no break in and of itself. But it was that which was named by Peter and Paul that that does cause a break. Once "false teachers" were in the mix, the spirit of God did not remain with them. Obeying does not justify the actions of false teachers, prophets, or leaders...it only...

    Once Saved, Always Saved?

    There are a few things that should not be misunderstood...although they commonly are: James was not exactly saying that faith without works is dead, as many understand it. But rather, he simply stated a fact, that faith results in good works...and if not, such a person has died. Which is not to...

    Lol on your “Christian only” take

    My understanding is that he was a deist. Which perhaps gives credit of the increase of knowledge (as Christ foretold) to God, but not to the church--that none might boast.

    Do we actually know that Ukraine was not violating the 90's treaty themselves?
