    Assurance of the Resurrection

    2Co 5:8 we have courage, and are well pleased, rather, to be away from the home of the body, and to be at home with the LORD. Paul goes on to say, we have courage, and are well pleased, rather, to be away from the home of the body and to be at home with the LORD. Paul is talking about death...

    Do Men Have Authority Over Women?

    Refromed1689, I believe the Bible is one of the best ways to grow in the knowledge of God and the Lord Jesus Christ, and also to learn about the nation of Israel, and even learn from the Lord Jesus Christ about ourselves. However, I accept the Bible as it is, there is Liberty that is founded in...

    Assurance of the Resurrection

    What we have learned so far is that we live in these earthly bodies, that will one day die. Through faith, in knowing the Gospel of Christ and seeing his Light, we realize that God deposits the spirit into our earthly bodies which is a treasure from heaven. The Spirit is the Holy Spirit/ The...

    Do Men Have Authority Over Women?

    Depending on what a writer says it can be either, from Himself, or God. So there is a thing to be cautious about. I do not have time to argue back and forth with another person as no one grows from the situations. God bless you!

    Lets look at the second part of what Paul said in 2 Corinthians 5:5 God, who also gave to us the deposit of the Spirit; In other versions of the Bible you may see ( this given us the spirit as a guarantee) 2Co 1:19 for the Son of God, Jesus Christ, having been preached through us among...

    Assurance of the Resurrection

    2Co 5:4 for we also who are in the tent groan, being burdened, seeing we do not wish to unclothe ourselves, but to clothe ourselves, that the mortal may be swallowed up of life. As mentioned before, Paul continues talking about about we also who are in this tent groan, being burdened, seeing...

Here in these verses we are going to be going over the Assurance of the Resurrection, with the first 11 Verses shared here from his Letter to the Saints in that day in age and see what we can find...

    Do Men Have Authority Over Women?

    Hello reformed1689, In response my brother is this: Anything you read in the Bible not everything is inspired. If the spirit is not guiding, all you are doing is putting demands on others, and it doesn't give room for freedom for thought and thinking in asking God, and by being lead by the...

    Homelessness, why is it a crime

    Hello Rita, Yes sometimes, it just depends on the community of the believers. We have Salvation Army, there is a place not to far away that will give food out every Thursday night for those who are in need of food called the Well. What about where you are from?

    Homelessness, why is it a crime

    Crazy! Thank you for bringing up the subject.

    Homelessness, why is it a crime

    You either work, or you get out! Government / State rules as law instated, can not do much against it, other than push through again for the Law to make it not illegal. In California I believe there is a place so bad with Meth, that if you are found with meth on you, you get slap on the wrist...

    Do Men Have Authority Over Women?

    Just as long as it is not a cult, and people are getting ready to take out the congergation through poison drank. Know what I am saying? Cults are real, and that can happen. As long as the person is using the Bible, and being lead by the spirit I do not think it should matter. From what I...

    Do Men Have Authority Over Women?

    Hello Brother reformed 1689, I do not care personally. Unless we live in the Apostolic Age and we need to conform, but the last time I heard brother reformed 1689: John the beloved is dead. In the context of what Paul was writing had a historical reasoning -> As the women would be come loud...

    Is drinking sin?

    “I have known, and am persuaded, in the Lord Jesus, that nothing [is] unclean of itself, except to him who is reckoning anything to be unclean — to that one [it is] unclean;” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭14:14‬ ‭YLT98‬‬

    Do Men Have Authority Over Women?

    Everyone is equal in the aspect of - No material religion exist today -, however no one is better than the other. God made Adam, and the rib taken from Adam was given to create - Life (Eve). I believe if people believe they are better than other people just because they are a man, or just...

    Who Really, Are the Jews?

    Love you sir! Genesis 49 seems like the establishment of all the (AUTHENTIC) 12 tribes of Israel.

    Who Really, Are the Jews?

    @Davy Genesis 49 Then Jacob called for his sons and said: “Gather around so I can tell you what will happen to you in days to come. 2 “Assemble and listen, sons of Jacob; listen to your father Israel. 3 “Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, the first sign of my strength...

    Who Really, Are the Jews?

    Okay. What is the point again what are you addressing here exactly? It is confusing me. Did not Joshua given land to the Twelve tribes of Israel? And Lot and his daughters slept with him and created two peoples Mobaites, and Ammorites. Nations: Defined in the verse you shared from Genesis...
