    Did Adam and Eve obtain salvation from God?

    We have another Adam... Jesus Christ. So unless HE be raised from the dead we are indeed all dead in our sins. You have to choose an Adam. I'm with the Lord from heaven on this one.

    The Undiscovered Christ

    I had to check my "show ignored content" list to see who you were talking about. ;)

    Matthew 10:8 - "Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons..."

    Agreed. I think the "All are welcome" idea is the wrong mindset. It keeps the congregation always in first gear...always catering to people making the first step....but then nothing. It is no coincidence that we don't find any spiritual maturity these days. But the ministries are for the...

    Matthew 10:8 - "Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons..."

    What? YAY!! It sure sounded like you were one of those building type Christians....but glad to hear you don't need a certain kind of sacred ritual.

    Matthew 10:8 - "Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons..."

    So you think a person can receive Christ outside a designated building in the absence of organ or piano music....and with unpaid ministry? Is this another of those coincidences?

    Matthew 10:8 - "Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons..."

    Why do you think you need a religious setting for "salvation" to become official? The gospel is to be preached all week....at any time and any place. The weird believers are the religious ones that need a "sacred" space to do "salvation" things. I know what you mean is a religious service...on...

    Is Remarriage after Divorce, Adultery?

    This is hard to judge one way or the other. A difficult question. And one that if known was only initial...people would get around it....and just repent later. So it probably depends.

    Matthew 10:8 - "Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons..."

    Definitely the unlearned. it seems nowadays there are many unbelievers among the believers. So then those who call themselves unbelievers do not come to meetings. We meet in small groups...and there's no fear mongering. ;)

    Matthew 10:8 - "Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons..."

    Church gatherings are not for unbelievers. It is only as church becomes a spectacle when it no longer matters who is in the audience. It is a performance meant to tickle the fancies. Who cares whose fancies are tickled? But the congregation of the Lord should foster the presence of God...so...

    Is Remarriage after Divorce, Adultery?

    This is an awful post and a slight on a godly woman. There's no care for anything or anyone here....other than to slight both God and 1st Century lady. Shameful.

    Did Adam and Eve obtain salvation from God?

    It seems that the higher the access to God....the worse the rebellion has dire consequences. Look at the devil. The devil has access to God....or had. So then his rebellion is without repentance. Adam chose his wife over God...in a way that was very permanent. This is not a case where a human...

    Did Adam and Eve obtain salvation from God?

    Adam is never called righteous as so many others are. Isn't that a curious omission? There was no mention of his own rehabilitation. And the very severity of the fall! Unless a sin was as complete as we see...would such drastic measures be required? I'm not for the judgment of Adam....I don't...

    Did Adam and Eve obtain salvation from God?

    I am very careful in my judgments. I do consider the whole counsel of God. Everything has to work from both testaments...the prophecy and the fulfillment. And the sword does cut both ways...

    Is Remarriage after Divorce, Adultery?

    If a marriage is a joining of the flesh...then yes.

    Do you know what that means?

    How Can You Have Eternal Life in the Kingdom of Heaven if You Do Not Repent?

    The gospel is not trolling...unless...:eek:

    If you were reasonable I would take you seriously.

    Did Adam and Eve obtain salvation from God?

    Actually the problem with the lukewarm Laodiceans is they thought they could see....and that they understood things. Be careful that by pointing one finger...3 others are pointing back at you.

    How Can You Have Eternal Life in the Kingdom of Heaven if You Do Not Repent?

    That would be "according to the flesh". Is it a sin to walk in the weakness of the flesh? No easy answer to that. Don't assume that very many people at all walk in the power of the Spirit. At most...people are influenced by the Spirit and guided by the Spirit....but always walking in the...
