Give God as always, the glory!

My wife has called it her favorite!

I also enjoyed his short time here, but he is simply gone. Let's keep him in our prayers.

People lean too much on their own brain power, their own understanding... and salvation is NOT to be found there. Solomon wrote about that a thousand years before Jesus was born in Bethlehem: "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways...

That which bars the way is actually the flaming two edged sword which is Jesus which is the Word of God. That is why it was Jesus who was sent to us to bring to us a Way to receive Life to replace the death we already had. People cannot get through Jesus to the right Tree because they are...

@Belflower Welcome to the forum!

There are certainly many who go quickly without thought or prayer through the wide gate of destruction, but there also be a few who seek and are shown the strait and narrow Gate leading to Life. So long as you are looking at only those taking take very wide gate you are missing the most...

When a person reads those verses with the preconceived notions already planted in their minds as taught by most main-line and many smaller church groups, yes, it certainly would be "considered" sound doctrine by the reader as well. The duration of death is certainly everlasting... and death is...

Yes, faith [as per Heb 11:1], but meaning that we really make no assumptions or presumptions based on what we already believe. I believe that our whole connection with God consists of things held by faith and things which we know. The problem is that I also believe we do not know which ones are...

If I decide or you decide it is certainly subjective. With God it is already decided. It is an absolute which means that ultimately tt cannot be subjective. This is God's perspective which a man alone cannot see or understand. The Bible is a book describing with words for men things which men...

Very simply I would suggest a couple of things. For one consider the word "everlasting" and what it really means... not as you have apparently learned it in English but as it might be understood by another in the original tongue. Another thing is the word, "contempt". When someone is held in...

Subjective according to your perceptions and deductions or conclusions and also immoral according to your code of standards. You don't know the God that I know. You don't have not been taught by the Teacher who has taught me... and it is NOT a man. You do not understand nor do you want to...

You cannot find the ultimate standard of morality because you have not really found God. We as believers may still only see it as "through a glass darkly" but see it we do. The darkened glass vision may make us differ in precisely what we believe and in how we react to what we believe, but it...

You are saying you know better than I what I do or do not do. I do really doubt that. Could it could not be that this is one of those things that you have not yet correctly grasped? I admit the possibility of my shortcomings as I do not know all. Who but God does? If we always knew where we were...

The written Bible is the dead flesh of Jesus on the cross prior to his resurrection. Only when it has been consumed by a person and quickened by the Holy Spirit within that person does it become the Living Word of God. Jesus healed no one between His death and His resurrection!

That sounds like Life to me. What the wicked receive is death as per: "This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one event unto all: yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to...

I guess depends on our definition of "being". Ultimately it is not the definition that matters but rather what the reality is. The reality of course is God. If we are enduring with Him to the end of our course, where is the difficulty? I do believe that even the walking dead man has hope until...

Perhaps not what your Bible teaches you, but if it is what the Holy Spirit teaches me, that's OK!

And you don't believe in other tongues. Your words seem to be saying otherwise!
