    The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !

    If you are suggesting that it pleases God to have the power to arbitrarily put to death everyone except 8, then your understanding of the nature of God is sadly bereft of any depth and wisdom whatsoever.

    The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !

    A person is lost because he refuses to believe in what has already been accomplished for him in Christ through the shedding of blood on Calvary. A person is not saved when he believes and Christ goes back on the cross for that person. The blood is shed. For everyone. And anyone who believes may...

    Can We Please Enforce A New Rule?

    "Can we please enforce a new rule" Enforcing rules in order to establish someone's perception of righteousness, or to reduce the effects of what some find offensive behavior, was the downfall of the Christian Church in the 3rd to 5th centuries. "Everyone must do things our way" said the Roman...

    Can We Please Enforce A New Rule?

    It makes a huge difference. A real conspiracy isn't just a bunch of stuff to make you frightened. The Bible speaks clearly and often of a single global government that will persecute and finally pass a death sentence upon all Christians. That is prophecy. It's God warning you too be prepared to...

    Can We Please Enforce A New Rule?

    @April_Rose How do you tell the difference between an actual conspiracy and a conspiracy theory?

    The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !

    Okay. Not being picky, but there is a point here I would like to touch on. I agree that the ego, the flesh/carnal nature, must die. I would suggest however that such an action we ourselves cannot accomplish. This also must be done by faith in Divine power. Jesus, in His flesh, was crucified by...

    Why Do We Sin?

    KJV Hebrews 4:15-16 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; As is suggested by some who propose that Christ came in the unfallen nature of Adam. but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. In all points means precisely...

    Why Do We Sin?

    And Satan knew full well Who Jesus was. He would have heard God's voice at the baptism. "This is My Son". Those temptations were in part designed with a purpose... Remember the words, "more subtle than any..."... A. To doubt His own identity. "If thou be..." Jesus was born without any knowledge...

    Why Do We Sin?

    Jesus was the Son of God. And He was just as human as you and I. It was through His connection to divinity that He was able to withstand temptation. It is NOT antithetical to anyone's nature to be tempted... It is antithetical to God's nature to consider surrendering to that temptation. To be...

    Some sort of illness

    @FluffyYellowDuck Don't fight the symptoms. Let them do their work. Just drink lots of water and and have fresh air. Temperature, diarrhea, spewing etc etc are all signs that the body is fighting the virus. Don't take pills to alleviate those symptoms.

    Why Do We Sin?

    Jesus was born with the same flesh nature common to man, else how could He be our example? KJV Romans 8:3 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: KJV Philippians...

    Why Do We Sin?

    Great questions April. ( In our m native language your name is Apirera.. love the name, very pretty.) Yes, Jesus could have sinned. He was human. Born with all the human capacities for rebellion... But He demonstrated by His faith in the Father that He could live a life of obedience and service...

    Christian safe-haven in British Columbia

    Not yet anywhere, but getting close. I believe it is time to seek country living homes. One can still travel into the towns and cities to minister, but it will be a lot easier and less painful to take to the hills when the final death sentence is decreed upon faithful Christians. Did you read...

    Christian safe-haven in British Columbia

    It may not be yet, but the time will come when witnessing will be a pointless exercise. In fact even suicidal. "You shall be hated of all Nations for My names sake" doesn't sound conducive to a happy relationship.

    Christian safe-haven in British Columbia

    I would suggest you be careful about sharing your location with believers as well. Those in your own church could well be your most bitter enemies when the crunch comes.

    When Do We Safely Say That Someone Is Genuinely Healed?

    My wife has an issue with carpal tunnel syndrome. In the doctors surgery the doctor asked if she wanted some pharma stuff for her wrists and when I told her we were using turmeric, the doctor laughed!

    No authority!

    I think I see what you're getting at. The reformation stalled because the Lutherans refused further light, and persecuted the Calvinists. The Calvinists and the Lutherans refused further light, and persecuted the anabaptists. The Wesley brothers were rejected by the earlier reformers, and so it...

    When Do We Safely Say That Someone Is Genuinely Healed?

    Today we have a major problem with health. People, particularly in the western hemisphere, are eating crap, not exercising, overweight, and over indulging in stuff that is utterly unhealthy. God is not going to heal anyone who continues to contribute to their own disease. Cancers, diabetes...
