    Are Some Unable To Be Renewed To Repentance?

    ...and the work of the Holy Sprit is to convict, to enlighten and to encourage, to point out the right direction. If this is rejected there is no other avenue for God to work on a persons heart thus rejection or blasphemy against the Spirit becomes unpardonable.

    The Council of Trent and its support of paganism.

    Thats unfortunate. How can a system that claims the higher ground produce adherents that resent others because they have a different view?... or is it that their enthusiasm will have them travel land and sea to make a single convert and when they have made him he becomes twice as much the son...

    They don't just want acceptance...they want to rule the world.

    2020 is the beginning of the end. From here on in unprecedented events will unfold. Financial crashes, viruses out of control, heinous murders, nations in distress, famines etc will plaster our news media without abating. Jesus told us to watch....to read the signs of the times....to not be a...

    The Council of Trent and its support of paganism.

    Sorry Illuminator your charges don't cut it. Whenever someone points out the the deviation the RCC has taken from the gospel these same old charges against them are regurgitated. It is the RCC who has fabricated a false history. Denial as long as is possible without losing face is how the RCC...

    Are Some Unable To Be Renewed To Repentance?

    Yes, its a serious matter.....God will not be trifled with, Judas is a case in point.

    The Council of Trent and its support of paganism.

    It is clear that even a cursory look at the gospels tells us the Church is built on Jesus, not Peter. A look at Revelation should clarify that beyond question and if you want to dig deeper, the Old Testament. Peter was probably the most outspoken and possibly the oldest but to interpret Jesus'...

    A Wheel In The Middle Of A Wheel

    In spite of your assuredness Harvest, you are trading wisdom for foolishness. Man in his pride has always tried to be smarter than God only to be rebuked by an ass.

    JOHN

    darkness to those distanced from him....light to those who are close

    JOHN

    I think 'without him' would be Lucifers realm....the result of pride and poor choice.....it spirals down from there into oblivion....darkness indeed

    A Wheel In The Middle Of A Wheel

    You have answered your own question excepting you have exchanged the word 'theory' for 'measure'. The principle is the same whether its called development or evolution. At the end of the day when God created he saw it was very good and the scripture states 'and the evening and the morning were...

    The Council of Trent and its support of paganism.

    These are no lies neither is it hate speech historyb. It is the Great Babylon being exposed and the more so as the consumption draws closer.

    The Council of Trent and its support of paganism.

    It appears your bishop is deceiving you.

    A Wheel In The Middle Of A Wheel

    I think this depiction of each day representing 7000 yrs is an attempt at compromise between the theory of evolution and the account of Creation. It removes the need to read the signs of the times and the urgency of watching and getting ready for the Lord's return which Jesus highlighted many...

    JOHN

    Yes, I suppose 'darkness' does seem like the opposite...at least to us it is yet to God, quoting Psalms 139:12 it reads....'even the darkness is not dark to you; the night is bright as the day, for darkness is as light with you'. What is referenced in scripture is that which we are familiar...

    JOHN

    we need to be careful here....it is too easy to ratchet our understanding to a place that contradicts scripture. John tells us in his epistle that the primary characteristic of God is Love and from it flows all else. If we deduce that darkness in this context represents misery / destruction as...

    JOHN

    Going back further than the creation of our world, 'in the beginning' gives us a reference to a realm we are unable to fathom yet still understandable in the sense that we cannot put God in a box. Yes. I hesitate to guess because I do not know.

    Peter's denial of Jesus

    yes, isn't it encouraging to see the parallels throughout the scripture. Solomon even says, 'go to the ant thou sluggard, consider her ways and be wise'. From the insects to the great strength of the elephant who lives on vegetation God has shown a path to those with eyes to see.

    Did the ancient Pagan Religions get picked up as 'tradition'?

    Anybody that picks their nose in a particular way for long enough can call it tradition or custom!

    Do you belong to "the [true] Church" (1 Tim 3:15)?, if so, how do you prove it?

    righto children....behave like the intelligent beings God made you as.

    Hello!

    Hello shineyourlight... we need shining lights here. The darkness and confusion want control......when you see all these things Jesus said, lift up your heads for your redemption draws near. Yeah, those who look forward to his return will have their armour on.....all others only talk of having...
