    You are not saved yet...not by a long shot!

    Actually the saints rule with Christ...there is no testing for those who have been made to rule with Christ. The testing is for the mortals born during the millennium. We can walk in salvation right now through abiding in Christ. Otherwise we must endure to the end (of our lives) before we can...

    The Moral Law not Abrogated by Christ to Believers

    You may be confusing God's laws with the moralizing interpretations imposed on them by men... Amen!

    Can you serve God in a false religion?

    Some big flaws here...that show an agenda. "The greatest and most ancient church??? Palleese! How could he miss Jerusalem...? an oversight? Or a calculated revisionism? It's superior origin??? Greater than Pentecost at Jerusalem? Greater than the first martyr Stephen? What is obvious about...

    Churches vs IRS: 501c non-profit status

    The real church is not a religious organization.

    Can you serve God in a false religion?

    I don't know about actually serving God but you can be righteous and not a Christian. Of course I'm speaking of the Old Testament type of righteousness...not the eternal righteousness of Christ.

    My feelings about the Christians on this forum;

    The abode is for this time. Jesus doesn't say to abide in Him at some distant future. We cannot bear an eternal fruit unless we abide in Him today. The place Jesus has prepared for us is a place where we have fellowship with God in the light.

    Heavenly Hebrews

    Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. A better way has come that renders the old religion (Judaism) obsolete. Man is not made righteous through religious works of the law. Works of...

    Future Facts (Israel, the Bride, Millennium Kingdom)

    They cannot be all Jewish since Judah only has 12,000 numbered. Israel is distinct and cannot be said to be made up entirely of Jews. The bible always makes a distinction between the 2 houses of Israel.

    Why does God save some and let others die?

    God's ways are always equal. He has NO favourites and He judges impartially. On top of that He tells us exactly what to do in order to receive His life and favour.

    Sanctified and Justified

    Sanctification is both an initial infilling of the Spirit AND an ongoing process of learning to maintain a vessel unto honour. One can only be sanctified as being a vessel that contains the Holy Spirit. The maintaining the purity of a cleansed heart requires maturity in a character that is...

    Which governments are not going to fall at Christ’s advent?

    Man has done nothing that merits a continuance into eternity.

    The other Jesus was not crucified

    You know, the popular Jesus. The one that forgives everyone with no strings attached! certainly not the One that demands everything from us including our lives.

    Religion

    God uses religion...as a carrier of a truth that they themselves don't really understand. Religion has it's own agenda. But God is sovereign and will use religion in order to preserve His words that bring life to many. The irony is that it is the religious institutions that ultimately persecute...

    Blocks to Personal Sanctification

    There is no life without death. This is a clear idea expressed throughout the NT. Paul said...It is no longer I who live. Hence the secret to a sanctified life is not a self-improvement....but a getting out of the way. A spiritual awareness is only possible when the carnal awareness is out of...

    Do You Write In Your Bible?

    I'm a notorious scribbler and verse highlighter. I like writing the Hebrew in the NT margins... lots of fun!

    The other Jesus was not crucified

    There is another Jesus...Jesus Barabbas. He escaped the death penalty...he was saved...he got off scott free! He also has many followers.

    Blocks to Personal Sanctification

    A walk without the cross leads to just more of the same old futility in life. The greatest obstacle to a sanctified life is the avoidance of the cross. Embracing death for our old lives leads to new life in Christ.

    Religion

    Faith pleases God. Religion pleases men.

    God’s reasons for hiding spiritual truths in the Bible

    Pro 25:2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.

    Why do you want Freedom of Religion?

    We don't need freedom of religion. Freedom in Christ is enough!
