    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    I hear you. Once several years ago I responded along with a friend to an ad in the local newspaper inviting anyone interested to attend an open inter-denominational Bible study group at a private home. We began attending the weekly meetings really enjoying them. Everyone was allowed and...

    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    What you describe is good. I hope there are still places like that around... were they are at least trying. I believe God honor a sincere effort in that direction In a couple of places I attended for years the pulpit was always open for any member or visitor to speak or teach or...

    Yes, I know! I have been a member there as a Protestant since 2008. That is the forum where I was also once a mod, but that was several years ago. I was moderator along with Catholic Crusader. He's still there but I don't think he's been a moderator for quite a while. What name do you use there...

    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    On another forum where I participated for years, which was owned and administered by a Catholic, one of the wisest people on that forum was an Greek Orthodox priest who lived in Florida. I once knew precisely which church it was, but it has long ago fled away from my mind. I told him if ever I...

    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    Looking back my best memories of the college days are of the fellowship. But... even at that my two best friends were atheists. I never was nor could be although I did try for a while. It would not work. I could not even be an agnostic. My personal experiences with God as a Catholic Altar boy...

    The Half-Gospel.

    @marks Sorry, but communication as I have said before is always a problem. I understand what I mean, but sometimes I really miss what the other guy is saying even when I am trying to pay attention. My bad! Apology not necessary! I don't expect you to believe what I do, but like most everyone...

    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    Don't apologize too much about it. Unfortunately sometimes we learn things we later may wish that we had not... but the experiences may be needed later... even some of the worst experiences... PHD's used to shake me up because never having been even on the approach to one, I presumed they...

    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    @justbyfaith I hear you on this for I have read it before on forums, but it is not what I see on it. I won't detail it here and now. The only way that people can always get it right is to always be in the Spirit led by the Spirit. Most, if not all, church groups [assemblies] practice...

    The Half-Gospel.

    I can tell you what I believe as you tell what you believe. I know what I did when my growth was stifled to the point where I back slid many years ago. I cannot speak for you. I won't give you my point of view if you insist on not hearing it. Listening and considering does not make you wrong...

    The Half-Gospel.

    Not saying your understanding is wrong, but be careful how absolute you are! You can use different words and decide upon a interpretation as people do. How many denominations are there today based upon the same written scriptures? What do you suppose is the difference between them when they...

    The Half-Gospel.

    You wrote off the idea of salvation and walking with God that I saw in those two examples. Was not much, if not all, of what Jesus said and did in parables? And where is the interpretation to be found? In our logical minds alone! According to you my interpretation would be in error, but what if...

    The Half-Gospel.

    You don't believe there are types and shadow also in the NT? You should reconsider on that. Doing so might interfere with what you believe, but sometimes putting on restrictions on like that could limit God's ability to increase where we are. Which one of us knows all that God has for us to know?

    Well It looks As If Our Covid 19 Levels Have Changed Again

    The Half-Gospel.

    Consider these: There was woman with several husbands guilty of adultery who was saved from being stoned to death. "When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? She said, No man, Lord. And...

    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    The types and shadows of Reality are there even as a dead corpse looks quite a bit like a breathing person who walks and talks in the flesh...but the dead corpse cannot breathe or walk or talk. The Reality only comes with and through Jesus. For a person to make it right with God a lot of work is...

    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    Many of those things which some people support almost automatically without consideration of scriptures pointing, or seeming to point, to something else I never learned really even in part until arriving regularly at an Internet forum many years ago. This is not all clear to me by any means. A...

    What Keeps Us From Sinning In Heaven?

    In the beginning of man it was so... that they were in his image, but do you not believe that their image was changed, marred, scarred when they disobeyed God and by and for all of those who followed until Jesus opened a better possibility? God was never dead and men without the Life that Jesus...
