Always thankful and rejoicing...always! :)

I agree. And when people interact...they remember twice as much. The church meetings of old were participatory. And Paul would "dialogos" (dialogue) his teachings to the church.

Our sins are only slain at His cross. So to enter into Zion and kingdom life we need to pass through His death...so that we are free to enter into His life. Our cross we bear in our own efforts to follow Christ. We will never enter in this way. His cross is towards His life. Once we enter into...

I agree with holding lightly to this doctrine. I tend towards Bi-nity. That is where Father and Son are Elohim....and the Holy Spirit is but an extension of the love between Father and Son. At times the Spirit is treated as an "it"...other times as a person. So there is a great mystery at work...

As a sojourner and pilgrim who so appreciates any kindness given. We approach God in our need of Him. He approaches us to fill our needs.

And to think that the cities where Jesus preached...will fare worse on judgment day than Sodom. Now, that is high-mindedness!

Should I fear what a man can do to me? I only fear God.:)

"This generation"...meaning this humanity....this time of human beings. (This age) Mankind.

We are grafted into Israel...as Ephraim. The fullness of the Gentiles.

When a person falsely sets himself up as a teacher ...and is in grave error... that person needs to be discredited. That is reasonable. Should we give credit where none is due? You have a repetitive agenda....and stomp your feet thinking your frustration is going to make it more true. Most...

See that's the thing. When we are conformed to Christ...we don't have to hide from God. In fact, God always sees our true condition. Jesus didn't come to hide us from the Father...but to reconcile who we are with who He is...in Spirit and truth. What you are speaking of is not of the Spirit...

Thank you Scott. It's good to chat with a brother. :)

I like that word...valiant... from the French vaillant ...as in...vaillant guerrier (Brave warrior) We are to add to our faith "virtue" (Gr. arete) according to Peter. This is a manly courage...the courage of a warrior. If we confess Jesus before the world...He will confess us before the Father.

Welcome here Acolyte! If you don't like the tone of some here, there is an ignore feature so you can be spared the strife and grief. As with anything in this world...you gotta take the bad with the good. :)

When you consider that the enemy has succeeded in turning the gospel inside out...to the great pleasure of many.

A righteous person admits his sins. But he also seeks to make restitution. One day Jesus went to a house of one Zacchaeus. He has extorted more money ,as a tax collector, than he should have. He decided to repay double or more to those he had thus robbed. Jesus declared salvation had come to...

Mainly agree. I think people put too much trust in their own beliefs and then justify themselves based on their beliefs....and endless circle of presumptions. We will be judged by our works...what we have done with what we have been given. As is plainly evidenced for all to see...except those...

The breach widens...

A strawman. You had the right idea at first...although somehow reducing the effects of a carnal adultery. But this doozie.. but it will only save those that truly believe it does. That is so far from the truth... Does gravity only affect those who believe in it? Do the unbelievers in gravity...

Adam not only sinned but he also hid himself....due to his loss of innocence. God had to go find him. His confession was an excuse...that Eve made him do it. Of course Eve would say...the devil made me do it. But they couldn't deny the fact that they had eaten. Their whole perception of life was...
