    Can the seal be broken? Lack of trust? Grieve the Holy Spirit?

    No...you just spoke against a ton of scripture. You are just cherry picking what supports your misunderstanding of all of what is written. You are not reconciling all of scripture...which is against the Word, against Christ. There is a term for that. With the salvation of God: "old things have...

    The tree of the knowledge of good and evil?

    Knowledge is from God, and is therefore, good. Evil is not good, but knowledge is good. Such is the fruit.

    Can the seal be broken? Lack of trust? Grieve the Holy Spirit?

    Indeed, salvation has come to all, even those who will hear and not follow. However, salvation is forever, or it is not salvation, but a gift from God not fully received. Let me put it another way: One cannot give back the gift of eternal life...because, by definition, it is forever...and if...

    I want to create a new holiday...

    Okay, this is a big issue, and you have posted lots to discuss. Let's give it a go. First off, I was not addressing the feast days per se. The feast days were practices that were to point to some events that occurred (in remembrance), and others that would eventually be fulfilled. The point...

    Understanding The Great Trib

    Why would any Christian even imagine that there is any greater abomination than the crucifixion of Christ? It's so wrong! And the whole idea goes all wrong from there :(

    I want to create a new holiday...

    All of what you have said is good and good to do for a time. But that time was only to be "until I come." Which began in biblical times: "But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you." Matthew 12:28 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new...

    I want to create a new holiday...

    Hahaha...that's exactly what the church fathers did with our modern day Christian holidays!

    I want to create a new holiday...

    That is right...everyday is a celebration of life in Christ Jesus, especially those of great significance. And the church fathers, in spite of their flaws and failures, claimed many of the modern traditional holidays for Christ, that were once Pagan (just as we once were). "Old things have...

    The Israel Of God Is The Church

    Your Original Post is great. But there is another distinction that should be noted: The Israel of the Old Testament are Gods "chosen people", a people who were not a people, chosen out of the nations to be His people, His servants, and a light unto the [other] nations. But the distinction is...

    Can the seal be broken? Lack of trust? Grieve the Holy Spirit?

    "My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand." John 10:29 Period.

    Can the seal be broken? Lack of trust? Grieve the Holy Spirit?

    Sealed is the same as Saved. And none can take you from the Father's hand. Period. "My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand." John 10:29

    Please Argue with me about Head Coverings

    There should be no debate here. If you have Christ, you have your covering.

    Please Argue with me about Head Coverings

    It is simply customary. But if it continues to portray what is good for those that are new to the faith, good to a point, but better if they simply bow their head. Think about what it portrays. In this same way, John the Baptist did not get a hair cut-- his Head was cut off.

    Please Argue with me about Head Coverings

    Okay...now I see what you are getting at. Just as the man portrays Christ in his roll as husband, and priests are men to portray God as male, etc., head coverings are or I should say were, to portray a godly women under the will of her Father in heaven and/or her husband whom is Christ. It is a...

    Rightly dividing the word... What does that mean?

    That's an interesting perspective: The idea of "maturity" in combination with God's "will." Care to elaborate on what that might look like...or what it does not look like in comparison? Thanks!

    There is NO proof text in scripture.

    If you are trying to define the positive by using negative examples in contrast, you have done a pretty good job. But our hope is not in the negative, but in the positive, which is the Way of Christ Jesus.

    Is The Beast Of Revelation 13:1-8 A Political System On Earth?

    Sounds like preaching without listening, like you never read what I wrote. Whatever.

    Clearing the muck of other Covid threads.

    Perhaps it is the rambling, but no, your position is not real clear. First it sounded like you were against the "vaccine", then for it, then against it again. Thus making your support information (the rambling) meaningless. Just state whether you are for or against it, and why. You should be...

    Is The Beast Of Revelation 13:1-8 A Political System On Earth?

    "He, his, and him", refer rather to him who's power is/was "over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations." But it is not good to carry the analogy too far...just as it would not be good to carry the bride of Christ analogy so far as to insist that only women go to heaven. See what mean?

    There is NO proof text in scripture.

    No, that is not at all what I am saying. I am saying exactly what the scriptures say: that God confused all language [including scripture]...which is NOT to say that the scriptures are "inaccurate." But rather, that God has intended it that way, working all things together for good for those...
