    Grace vs Legalism

    I usually try to do that, but sometimes even the second time through I miss what I missed. Later when someone has responded to one of my posts and I reread it then it hits me between the eyes just how nonsensical it was because of typos....

    Baptism in Jesus' Name (poll).

    Thank you for the effort, but no... that is not the one. I received the Holy Ghost in 1976 in El Sobrante, CA and at that time the song was sung regularly in assemblies around the SF Bay Area. If you have any oldsters around who remember those times, probably they will know that song. I can...

    Behold! The Lamb of God!

    The personal sacrifice of Jesus was finished! If all of the physical red blood was bled out on Calvary, what was poured out in the Upper Room? Are they the same? I see the Spirit as the Blood of Jesus. In the OT especially in the Book of Leviticus it is made clear that life is in the blood...

    Behold! The Lamb of God!

    @marks Ecclesiastics 3:1-11 To be seen and understood by one with "eyes to see". Yes, and... "In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias...

    Grace vs Legalism

    What do we know and what do we hold by faith?

    Grace vs Legalism

    Thanks for the catch. It seems my typos are on the increase. Maybe it comes with age!

    Grace vs Legalism

    Whose objective? If it is God's, why not? If it is some man's why should we pay him any mind? Perhaps first, a person would have to really be saved for the question even to meaningful to that person. Does any person know that he will never die and always be with the Lord... before he dies...

    Behold! The Lamb of God!

    Remember this is the Baptist announcing the presence of Jesus as the Lamb. Jesus had yet to lay down his life. Can we answer any of these questions? What is required for the sin to be taken away? Where is the sin that is to be taken away? Was there any sin before Adam and Eve disobeyed God?

    Rejoice in the Lord Always!

    "My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things." Prov 23:15-16

    Rejoice in the Lord Always!

    Kudos to the three year old and to those who are able to imitate him!

    With So Many Denominations...

    It may be related to this verse: "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." Gal 6:9

    With So Many Denominations...

    If a person, [or people], does [do] with the Bible what the children of Israel did with the serpent of brass about 700 years after it was made by Moses, then, yes!

    With So Many Denominations...

    Yes, having heard from God and having received His call... and then finding a comfortable pew so as never to walk forward again.

    Baptism in Jesus' Name (poll).

    Many years ago I learned a song in the UPC and even now after more than 30 years these words from it remain with me: "Jesus is the name of the Father, Jesus is the name of the Son, Jesus is the name of the Holy Ghost and all these three are one." I searched for it on the Internet, but came up...

    Indeed, manna, or as Pontius Pilate put it, 'What is truth'?

    With So Many Denominations...

    And to cover their nakedness, what? "And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons." Gen 3:7 "Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them." Gen 3:21 What...

    Faith-based tattoo: as a result of one, did you ever talk with someone? (Poll included)

    Or have never known the Power of God often because what some man has taught... or failed to teach. All of the other things, such as tatoos, should be side issues scarcely worth mentioning, but when they are brought to the fore instead of what God considers the first things, the result too often...

    Cessastionism ,What is it?

    @Anthony D'Arienzo I guess my mind being what it is not, I had forgotten precisely where you stood on this. My simple response is that God indeed has already spoken about all that pertains to us [His revelation], that is to men. However, not every man has heard all that he could hear...
