    The Church The Papacy Says You Should Join

    You lost me with all the religion-speak. The warning stands.

    Three earth ages

    You do not understand what it is that has been given, nor who is speaking. I did not mention myself, nor do I claim anything other than Christ. What you have said, you say to Him...and this according to Him, not me.

    The Church The Papacy Says You Should Join

    No...that is a misunderstanding of what salvation is and what has been given: We become (In the twinkling of an eye) One with God, in God. It is no longer we who live, but God who lives in us. We are no longer separate. We "enter in" to the immortality of God, becoming the same yesterday...

    Reasons why many BACs are spiritually blind

    You need to call the blind something else. One who is born cannot reenter the womb. This blindness is not unlike that which came upon Israel, but they are not the born again. Israel are rather the dead in Christ who's salvation is according to promise and in death, of whom Christ was the Last...

    'Who is able to make war with him?'

    The seven times are seven days of the creation (of the creature). The question is rather "Who is able to escape the flesh and the world?" The answer, is: Jesus Christ, the Son of God, would laid down His life in the flesh, that He may take it up again in the spirit.

    Lose? You kid yourself. The fallacy is anyone thinking they could go back after being born. You must have missed that lesson. You have learned nothing, have gained nothing, and therefore have nothing to lose. PS, But do take heed, the warnings were for you who think you have something but...

    Three earth ages

    No, that's wrong, not biblical. The scriptures must be spiritually discerned, and the hard sayings and parables of Christ are proof. That is the truth of what is written...and not everyone, in fact no one understands, except spiritually. On the contrary, what you did with Romans 8 is "here a...

    Three earth ages

    @n2thelight This is good when it comes to teaching the principles as they were made manifest in the likeness of their heavenly counter parts, but not in the plain truth. In other words, God has spoken in the world and by creation [only] in the likeness of the subject, by using manifest objects...

    Three earth ages

    What "pseudo-science" creeping into the pulpits would you be referring to, and what "pointers?" Care to elaborate? .....Ah, I now see that you have in post #10. I'll have a look. Thanks!

    Three earth ages

    n2thelight, This is man's thinking. You can discover much through science, but all of it comes under the umbrella of men speculating about what they can understand at their level. That is like a group of kindergarteners theorizing their playroom. Even if they come up with the fact that parents...

    Hidden with Christ in God

    That is a much better position. Even so, I would have to say that Muslims and Samaritans are not on par...but I get your point, and agree. The problem that comes from overstating, however, is that love becomes religion and religion becomes law, and then we have a sect of believers who are...

    Hidden with Christ in God

    What "requirements?" You seem to overstate what Christ summarized in just 2 commandments.

    Any thoughts on this??

    I guess I can be glad I didn't buy his book. He doesn't know the truth, and is certainly not one to listen to.

    The Church The Papacy Says You Should Join

    There seems to be a considerable amount of misunderstanding as to just what a sinner is and is not. A sinner is one born of the flesh under the linage of Adam prior to being saved by Him who came to save. Once saved from being a sinner, they are no longer a sinner. What the apostle John wrote...

    The Church The Papacy Says You Should Join

    Again you rattle on with your misunderstandings of the scriptures, reading and quoting them without understanding. Nonetheless, "experiential knowledge" is not saving knowledge. Knowledge (in that sense) does not save. You are proof. You personify it. Thanks for pointing that out!

    Can a Saved man choose to be Lost?

    The correct answer lies with God rather than with men. When one enters into a covenant with a man, he can break his covenant because it is with a man. But what God enters into with a man cannot be changed...because, even if the man is not the same yesterday, today, and forever...God is. "The...

    Spirit-Filled Members: Please Comment

    First...Paul's words were and are approved as authoritative by the providence of God over His word through these many generations (which no man could do). By Paul's word there are indeed prophets during these times, and there is an order placed over them. That order indicates that there are...

    Is The Rapture A Literal Event?

    Yes, Jesus is both the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Those designations do indeed identify Him, but also our place with Him, and also Israel, the dead and the living in Christ. Those of the house of Israel whom Christ came for are the dead, for they died in their sin. They were...

    Is The Rapture A Literal Event?

    No, it was just a strange time. They were like recovering alcoholics given the power and words of God...one minute amazed and unsure, and the next minute speaking with authority. By design (by God) this has made for a near Schizophrenia and divided nature to the church, prolonging the days until...

    Is The Rapture A Literal Event?

    Yes, kind of like the idea of being born again. (Duh!) Yet there are still many who are befuddled like Nicodemus.
