The whole idea of a "saved" status is the result of a human neurosis that doesn't trust God to judge properly. We are all at God's mercy....always. Let us drop the foolishness of a guaranteed salvation...which only serves to prolong the carnal mind. A true "saved" person is not concerned with...

In the next age.....after Armageddon and the new heavens and new earth are established.

When Jesus returns at the first resurrection....which is the resurrection of the saints. Yes, and rules with a rod of iron. No he must wait until he is released.

Paul didn't set up any structures nor did he set out to plant churches. He planted Christ. God gave the increase and the rest of it. People try going around God trying to do His work for Him. The result is dead religious "structures." These are robotic empty and lifeless. God's way needs to...

Just remember that the Bereans were noble...but unbelievers. A person who always looks to chapter and verse is a babe in Christ at the most. The bible points us to Christ...who IS the word. But the bible serves as training wheels until one has that spiritual connection. After that the Spirit AND...

I corrected the unclear answer I posted...the future.

I actually do understand the kingdom of God. Here is a question for you....When Satan and his demons are locked up for 1,000 years....who then is the Lord of this world during that time. Think carefully. If Jesus is in our midst physically (in the future) ...and running the show...then the...

You have a flawed explanation but your conclusion is sound nevertheless. :)

These are all dealing with the same issue so I'll stack them together for a response. 4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the...

But only if you will receive it! ;) The same goes for today.

Let's try this. I believe that God has presented us with a picture of the human heart in the description of the tabernacle. Unlike the physical heart which has 4 chambers...the invisible part of the heart has half that many (no surprise there)....namely 2 parts. There is the larger part and the...

Elijah....John the Baptist. Elisha....Jesus. baptism in water.....baptism in the Spirit.] The rule goes like....first the natural THEN the spiritual. 1 Cor. 15:46 The spiritual, however, was not first, but the natural, and then the spiritual. Can you conceive of the idea of the shadow or...

We are made perfect in Christ. Now that sounds like a religious slogan that is meaningless and powerless to change our situation. That is....it sounds that way....until God actually intervenes.

Which are? Please explain...

The bible is about people who have experienced God. Not people who have a set of beliefs about God. Stephen looked up and saw God in heaven...so he said "I see" But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God...

Belief IS like this. Faith is something else. If I say...do you believe you can walk outside today? You would probable say yes. Then I can ask you. So what did you see/experience in your walk? Then you would be able to tell me (if you wanted) what you saw. Now in that same way I ask you...do...

Re-read the OP. You are making this about true or false. If you drive a car...does that mean you no longer are able to ride a bike? See how your modern reasoning goes? You are not being logical...never mind biblical here.

And the second step is to walk in that life...just as Jesus walked. In HIS power.

I'm not blaming you...but you are a product of the modern way of thinking. You are unable to learn because you have been taught a superficial "truth" that stops anything else from going in. It's a very effective way to stop people from going deeper in their walk in the Lord. This isn't about...

I'm only speaking of what is written to us all in the bible. Here's a question for you. How many churches teach that half of their number will be shut out of the kingdom because they are like lamps without oil (based on the parable in Mat. 25). Of course nobody considers that they could...
