Reading the bible in a different language feels different... I know someone that reads Koine Greek. I wish I could read the original language. I know how much gets lost in translation. But I still believe the bible , N.T. was translated well enough from the Greek to know what God wants us to...

Hi JIF, sorry for delay. This is what Catholics believe: They were saved They are being saved They will be saved There IS scripture for this, if you want it, I'll look for it. They believe they ARE saved if they're not in a state of mortal sin (it's not easy to commit a mortal sin). Venial sins...

I also checked that old bible. It's from 1816. It says Revelation. I should give it to a museum or something. It's getting ruined. Just realized it's 200 years old!! But isn't offenbarung a funny word to use for a book that has so much symbolism in it !!

P.S. What does Offenbarung mean?

They're both right. I have a bible upstairs from 1819. I'll check that one too when I go up next time. Revelation...The revealing of Apocalypse ..The end times. Anyway, what's in a name? It's what's inside that counts!

No comment on Revelation. Only because I don't know that book very well. I read it and it does sound like Jesus. ... Rev. 19:13 John 1:1 Of course the Word was God. It was part of God, was it not? Everything was created by the word of God. In the same way we could say that the Holy Spirit...

Dear LORD We pray for those who love you and wish to do your will while here on earth. Keep Sally in your loving arms and give to her the comfort you promised to all of us...Your strength and your love, may she feel all of this. If it is your will may she have a full healing, and if it's her...

The trinity consists of three persons in One God. God the Father God the Son God the Holy Spirit God the Word does not exist.

You sure don't sound Christian from the way you talk. Posters such as yourself should not even receive replies. You should remove curses and hate from your speech. And next time you read through the N.T., try to pay attention to how many times Jesus spoke of salvation. You'll find that it was...

And this is the reason some of us are here... To learn new concepts and not forget the old ones.

Yes sir!

Every teen should read The Srewtape Letters. Nothing is real to them...most of them. Not God and not the enemy. This book brings the enemy to life. I'll look for the movie.Thanks!

Could I get a rain check? Is my salvation in peril because of this?

I'm not sure if it was Aquinas who stated that proof of God is our search for perfection. We cannot search for something we cannot imagine. If we search for perfection, it's in our consciousness and must surely exist. Only God is perfect, and we're born with this innate desire,,,

What's that? What did I miss now??

Thanks! No. I don't use my phone and drive. It's really dangerous.

Too much. Need my computer.... Won't forget!

I like CS Lewis too. Mere Christianity is the best book I've ever read that explains Christianity.

It changes the nature of our loving and merciful God. And to do this every scripture is twisted to their understanding. I believe it's blaspheming the Holy Spirit.
