    Do you have proof of this? ;) The world hates the US because it serves it's own interests while claiming to be bringing "freedom" to the world. I guess one would have to be outside the bubble to see the amazing hypocrisy. I don't blame the American public so much...they are indoctrinated into a...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    Not according to the bible....You are expressing your own opinions rather than looking to the word. What does this mean.? Rom 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? Rom 6:2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Rom 6:3...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    The biblical position is that when we are in Christ...we just don't sin...not through human effort, but by grace. God will not condone sin. Jesus did not die in order to condone sin. He was resurrected to give us the same power as He has. THAT is the gospel. But to obtain this new life, we need...

    Admittedly I get my info from the media. There has been more than one recent shooting in a church building on a sunday by armed security. And many inner city schools have armed guards and metal detectors at the entrance. These things are going on. Gangs and crime are affecting the young in the...

    "Illegitimate" Children

    Things that were meant in the physical realm in the OT have become the deeper spiritual significance. To be illegitimate in the NT means to be spiritually illegitimate...as in...I never knew you. We need to run the race lawfully or be disqualified. That is the meaning in our time.

    Perhaps I'm mixing the US up with another country that has armed guards in grade schools, churches, airplanes, not to mention a homeland security act that basically gives the law the power to do...well whatever they want. Fear is the prime motivator that makes security the top issue. I don't...

    Jesus’ sheep are God’s elect

    You may be onto something there.

    The media manipulation has turned this event into a circus. American society seems to be a powderkeg just waiting for a chance to explode.

    In spite of the US being a virtual police state, there seems to be no trust in the justice system. It seems poeple are reading in their own prejudices into the events.

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    You are accusing me of preaching a dead religion...how ironic. I have only spoken of walking in the Spirit...which you then interpret me saying as walking in religion. Perhaps you should re-read your responses to me but this time according to what I actually said. That would help the process...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    So you interpret the Holy Spirit as religion? How ironic! It is your religious belief that causes you to grab hold of a non-sensical amnesty for sins where God is not like that at all. The soul that sins it shall die. So you are adhering to an anti-gospel based on a man made religious desire to...

    Salvation really?

    We are placed in the oven. Not too many will endure the heat is takes to become fully baked. We are to be living sacrifices. A living sacrifice has the habit of getting of the altar. You can try obeying the law on your own...or you can obey the law through the Spirit. You can try putting out...

    Jesus’ sheep are God’s elect

    Too often the churches tend to be more like kennels than sheepfolds. :(

    The Church Is Not Walking In Her Full Authority !!

    What is missing is the power of a new resurrected life. Many who abandon the faith think it is by human effort that we are to overcome...and after trying are soon overcome themselves. But the power lies in the cross that kills our old nature...and in the resurrection life of power that...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    Powerful enough to declare an amnesty against sin you mean. Jesus didn't just die to provide a free-for-all...He was resurrrected in order to impart NEW LIFE...a resurrection life that is created in true holiness. Even Gandhi didn't want to sin...and a great deal more than almost any westerner...

    The Cost of Discipleship

    Hi brother Mark! When a person is born from above that one is pure and washed in the blood. But the mind only knows what it has previously experienced. The heart has been trained to love certain things...certain ways. We are not born anew with wisdom...we must grow in wisdom. This is the...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    There is an insidious short-circuiting of the gospel going on. The gospel of Jesus Barabbas...just accept the amnesty and forgiveness for sin! There is no resurrection power over sin in the Barabbas gospel...because there is no cross and no death. It breeds "saved" sinners that have no power. Of...

    The Gospel was changed by God:

    Mock all you want...it is written about the mockers in the last times. :) You are denying the gospel? Are you saying that those who walk in the Spirit will still give into the flesh anyway? The sinless state IS to walk in the Spirit. Paul wrote this type of exhortation to Gentiles.... ;)...
