    Being 'Born Again'

    Encourage them to pray to the FAther, and for all friends, families, and just pray to the Father in Jesus name, and seek out God with all their heart and ask to be lead by the holy spirit that always causes good things to come, even long-suffering.

    Being 'Born Again'

    Here is a few more questions. This is a focus on what happens when we are born again. 1. What becomes 'new' ??? From with-in when accepting the death, burial, and resurrection - a new creation is made, a new spiritual creation and the the new spiritual creation is different than the natural...

    Being 'Born Again'

    1. Is it necessary for salvation ? I believe that is part of accepting Salvation in acceptance of the death, burial and resurrection. 2. Does it involve a surrender of the will to Jesus ? I believe that when the holy spirit, and the spirit of Christ comes into a persons life, they have a choice...

    What is impossible for God?

    My brother and friend, Ama, I believe the Hell what is known as Sheol is largely misrepresented today by the mass majority of people. They believe hell is a fire place of burning when it is really the abode and realm of the dead, where souls were collected over a period of time in Paradise...

    What is impossible for God?

    There is answer in revelation 22 of where people go and end up. It’s slim information but still informative. Perhaps those of Job ended up in hell just like everyone else did before Christ came and overcame Sheol. Would you consider it plausible @amadeus? Everyone from Adam to Christ all went...

    The bride of Christ had their heads beheaded and killed and murdered, harassed and all the while were encouraged to continue to watch and wait for the return of Christ. (Truly Awe inspiring the spotless, blameless bride of Christ). Nothing like they experienced is happening today in my opinion...

    What is impossible for God?

    Say you have a person who has three children. One turns 18 and never sought after God but you loved that person for they were your child, who ended up killing themselves. Where do they Go? Hell forever? Blitzed and roasted like marshmallows in the Lake of fire? What about Gods love? I believe...

    What is impossible for God?

    Because Jesus died for sinners @amadeus Because of his life, they will receive at most a resurrection… Why would God just create people to die and become nothing?

    The Victory of Jesus

    Thankfully due to belief and faith in Christ you become an adopted child of God. Yes the bride has been taken away, but your faith is what makes you become a child of God following Christ, my friend. I believe John wrote before the destruction of Jerusalem… there is debate of the writing of...

    The Victory of Jesus

    Very thankful that God desires none to perish and he has a way set up that when people die believer and unbelievers they will have a place to stay! They aren’t just lost or completely destroyed! That gives hope to people who have lost parents and children… who people may have been unsure about...

    The Victory of Jesus

    well after that I guess they are outside the gates. “Blessed are those who wash their robes. They will be permitted to enter through the gates of the city and eat the fruit from the tree of life. Outside the city are the dogs—the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idol...

    The Victory of Jesus

    please read this out loud to oneself. Yes he would be right in those who believe, and suffer following Christ are indeed saved to the kingdom of heaven. However Jesus still overcame and had victory over Sin (he died for it), Satan and his demons, hell/Sheol, the grave. Many people have a...

    The Victory of Jesus

    No it doesn’t @amigo de christo. Jesus death and victory was and is for all people. Please stop saying it was only for those who believe. I don’t see anyone being thrown into the lake of fire. what I do see is people being resurrected, with there being two sides. One inside the kingdom, one...

    The Victory of Jesus

    Jesus is victory was on behalf of all the world. That means he has saved all people - because of his victory from death, Sheol/hell, Satan and his demons, and sin (because he willingly paid the price on all of the worlds behalf). There are people who have a problem with that for some reason it...

    What is impossible for God?

    Thank you telling me, @amigo de christo but I wish you would quit telling me. I literally stated what Jesus said… I believe following Christ is important… I don’t go saying for people around not to believe or not look to Jesus… the death, burial, and resurrection and following Christ is...

    Is there any other way to understand Election besides Calvin's way?

    Yes using contextual reasoning with Romans Chapter 9. Asking who, what, when, where, why, and putting yourself up a case in realization of their day in age was different then now today. To me those who were elected and predestined by the foreknowledge of God was because it was meant to be that...

    All people have been saved from - Hell/Satan and his Demons/Sin (Jesus paid for it already), the Grave. That is the victory of Christ for all people. Those who choose to believe and follow after Christ they have a different life following Christ, than those who make the choice not to follow...

    What is impossible for God?

    Jesus said there will be two resurrections not just one. Two, One being One for the believer, One being for the unbeliever. According to what John has proposed in Revelation 22: There are those who may get to enter into the gates of the city, and there are those who are not in the city at all...
