    love your enemy?

    Discovering the enemies of the children of Israel and what to do with them was always a black and white thing in the OT. They were to kill all of the "-ites" specifically named. In Deut 7:1-2 seven peoples are named in the Promised Land to be killed. Deut 20:10-18 lists only 6, excluding the...

    Study the Bible for Truth's Sake

    Very simply I am sure, "on the Lord's side"!

    (Refuting) This Going 2 A Church (Building) Saves You Doctrine!!

    While I have no problem using and applying the word, Christmas, as many people use it and apply it, I would be slow to break it into its original components which would like have a more Catholic meaning: The mass of Christ. No problem with Christ [anointed one or Messiah], but the word, mass...

    Love

    @Jenniferdiana3637 It would seem that Jesus agrees with you... "For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your...

    ...being justified by grace...

    You are quoting his words, but who is He? My point is not about whether or not a person believes that Jesus is God. What you or I read and understand from his words that you quoted may not be seen yet by every person born of God for reasons unbeknownst to us [See Isaiah 55:8-9]. But bringing...

    Forsaken

    Even so like Moses who apparently became so angry on the LORD's behalf that he proceeded to disobey the LORD! "Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring...

    ...being justified by grace...

    Why would you ask such a question of anyone? If the answer really should be, yes, according to what God knows, how would you or I or anyone else know without a revelation from God? If the answer, on the other hand, really should be, no, would not the only source of the correct answer also be...

    ...being justified by grace...

    Are we getting there yet? "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." John 14:12

    Jesus

    I will stand with you on not arguing today and simply remembering him as we should do everyday! Merry Christmas to you as well!

    Merry Christmas

    @Jenniferdiana3637 Welcome to the forum and a merry Christmas to you!

    I doubt that God incarnated, but believe Jesus is God

    Similar perhaps to zombies claiming they are alive because they perceive [what does a dead man perceive?] themselves as walking around participating in what men have defined as activities of the living. Does not God has a different take on it? What is reality?

    From Nut to Minister

    Hmmmm bait? Who would then be the intended prey who would so hunger for such a prophet, such a man? Is this how one might go about luring and catching a devil fish? [The devil fish or giant devil ray is an endangered species of ray in the family Mobulidae. It is currently listed as endangered...

    Forsaken

    If we were to place a horse in a large duck blind and then released all the blood from all carefully measured number of donors into the blind, it would certainly be possible. But... getting the horse into the duck blind might present a problem.

    From Nut to Minister

    Is that bad? I really don't know the difference between Methodists and Baptists either. Are we in trouble with God, if we don't? Also, though I have heard of them, I do not know the difference between the teachings of John Calvin and Jacobus Arminius. But on that last sentence you spoke about...

    Merry Christmas Everyone!

    By Clement Clarke Moore 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions...
