    Outer Darkness

    I thought to start this thread since I find no one considers this eternal destiny in their calculations as to possible outcomes for humanity. Jude 13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever. Wandering in the...

    Heaven or Hell?

    What about the destiny of eternal darkness? I find it very curious that no one considers this end as a possibility. Yet this is the place for the religious hypocrites.

    Lie of the 20th century in 'christian' cultism

    The sabbath was created for us....not we for the Sabbath. Mark 2:27 Then he said to them, "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath. Following Christ is our Sabbath. (Sabbath means "stop!) Most people work only 5 days a week in our time. No one is...

    There are many believers here who are not Sabbath worshipers.

    Back When Protestants Men Weren't The Gutless Wonders Of Today

    "Phoneman777, post: 434384, member: 6649"]Prepare for head for the following cranial explosion: The Bible says plainly, clearly, without question that failing to warn your neighbor of the error of his way is a textbook act of hatred. "Hate not thy brother in thine own heart. Thou shalt in any...

    How to hold tight to our Joy in The Lord, In the midst of our sorrow.

    The world waits for things to happen before happiness sets in...but we can rejoice pre-emptively! :) We are to rejoice ALWAYS. That is the will of God concerning us. We rejoice by faith knowing that all things...even bad things...work for good in the end. And what an end!

    Back When Protestants Men Weren't The Gutless Wonders Of Today

    If we look at the second principal commandment....and royal law....to "love others as ourselves"...we do see a common basis for all men of all religions to agree on. We can do some things without divine grace. Nothing eternal, of course. The irony is that we don't even have that one down...

    But is it really our Leader that is keeping us divided? Doesn't Acts 2 look like a commune in the Spirit?

    The Lord's Supper; For Jews only?

    Paul's reference to "the feast" entails more than that...The Lord's table is within the feast...."the cup of redemption"....but there are 3 other cups. I'm not saying this to be legalistic. Sometimes we need to know why we do certain things. I think Passover is beneficial (not mandatory) for...

    The Lord's Supper; For Jews only?

    How about Passover...from which the Lord's supper is taken? Paul said... 1 Cor. 5:8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with the old bread, leavened with malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and of truth. For Messianic types...it doesn't say "the feasts" ...

    The waster:

    In the case of Adam...it doesn't say spirit of deep sleep...but simply deep sleep. So then he was entirely asleep. That isn't a problem. But to be spiritually asleep when we claim to see and understanding things...THAT is a big problem.

    How can the same people that see Ecu-mania as wrong....not see that denominationalism is fruit from the same tree?

    Eternal Security

    What do people think about this statement of Jesus ... Mat. 12:32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the one to come. It would seem that we indeed retain free will....and can...

    The waster:

    We can think of the servant that buried his talent here. Sloth is a spiritual lethargy that causes us to not advance in the knowledge of God. I think we all suffer from this at times ....just think of the 10 virgins who ALL fell asleep. We need to be awake. There is a spirit called "rouach...

    Heaven or Hell?

    What I meant was that we tend to see things in black and white but in the kingdom there is ...good..better.. perfect...on the positive side....and bad to worse on the negative side. To judge righteously then we need to see that righteousness is a moving target.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    In Hebrew..IM ( עם ) means "with"...Imanou is "with us" (adding in the vav) El...is God in the singular. A virgin (young maiden) bears a son who's title is... "God (separate word) with us"

    The Problem With The Trinity

    What about this.. יהוה the name of God...in which the letters mean.. . a hand ה behold ו a nail ה behold John 20:25 So he said to them, “Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not...
