    Young adult hangout thread

    I'm an old codger who dared to poke his head in and remind you that having twenty or thirty birthdays does not qualify you as a twenty or thirty year old. Many have had as many birthdays yet are not older than half that age. You want to Play? (call it what you may) you reveal your true age but...

    Romans

    Faith is manifest by obedience.....God's word is clear. A mental assent to what is true does not qualify as Faith.

    How the Law harms you.

    Grace is not contrary to The Law but Sin is. Is the desire to live in sin with impunity?.....the definition of sin being the transgression of the Law. The curse of the Law is Death.....not to be confused with the Law itself Argue against your Sin not the Law which highlights it. To argue...

    Romans

    All who love God love God's Law. Loving Gods Law means one upholds it by keeping it. It's simple as that. This is Paul's angle as well as that of all the Apostles. It is also the angle of all the Prophets. Any wrestling of scripture to say otherwise puts one on the side of the rebellion against...

    Why the trinity?

    I think you are reading into the text what is not there. Jesus never refused worship. In other words, he was God.....if he wasn't he would have been a charlatan by accepting worship. When the angel says 'worship God' he is not discounting Jesus as is clear from Rev. 22:13 where Jesus says ' I...

    What is “Mystery Babylon” and her connection to the Antichrist?

    Be certain that Jesus' lament does not apply to you......'As Jesus approached Jerusalem and saw the city, He wept over it and said, “If only you had known on this day what would bring you peace!But now it is hidden from your eyes. For the days will come upon you when your enemies will barricade...

    Play?? ...why play when the Titanic is sinking? It is high time to wake and be sober......there are things upon us with few watchmen.....no time to play..... not even Church!

    The Jesuits ... What is their role? Part 1 and 2

    Truth is not grasped by logic you use. Truth is a facet hidden from proud eyes. Truth does not operate in the way you suppose.

    How should the church service be structured

    How should the church service be structured .... Stop playing Church....that should solve most issues! But how can can this be done if truth takes the back seat to money and status.

    Trump using the Bible as a prop...

    You misrepresent, Enoch. At the time of Police violence there was peaceful protest.....later after darkness fell there was damage done to St Johns.....who did it?.....you assume the earlier protesters.....and to capitalise on your position you say St Johns was burnt down which is also not true...

    The Jesuits ... What is their role? Part 1 and 2

    I would say you are superimposing Mary upon the text.....why? because Mary is not the subject matter of the prophecy.

    The Jesuits ... What is their role? Part 1 and 2

    There is a difference between the symbol (the woman of Rev.12) being the collective of God's people and the individual Mary. The intent of the prophecy is not to highlight Mary as an individual but rather to make it clear that Jesus came from the progeny of faith. The same principle applies to...

    I don't know what you're talking about DPMartin......how have you arrived at your question?

    The wrong Cross

    I might add, it is righteousness which is threatened.....temptation has the ability to blur the priorities. Consider Eve in the garden.....consider your own experience; is there a love for righteousness; for representing God well? All who have this love are surely tested.....and it doesn't let...

    The wrong Cross

    The unregenerate man surely has this problem. The regenerate man however has at his disposable the whole armoury of heaven......he can if he chooses reach out and grasp it.......and overcome.....just as Jesus did. In fact, herein is faith with power manifested. I think of Gethsemane.....the...

    You must not have heard what I said to give the reply you have given....'You confuse locations Enoch....You blame peaceful protesters as violent ones because it serves the paradigm. Doing this is no different than justifying the the slaughter of so called heretics as the RCC has done in...

    The Jesuits ... What is their role? Part 1 and 2

    The people of faith (God's people/ God's Church) are represented by the chaste woman in Rev.12.

    The Jesuits ... What is their role? Part 1 and 2

    It has not passed my attention that you have not answered brakelite's question, 'show from scripture that that woman is Mary.' What I have noticed is the attempt to snow the question.

    You confuse locations Enoch....You blame peaceful protesters as violent ones because it serves the paradigm. Doing this is no different than justifying the the slaughter of so called heretics as the RCC has done in centuries past.
