I agree with KBCid most times. But, yes, I do have a problem with this idea that the Holy Spirit inspires this and that. Then why doesn't the Holy Spirit inspire all to believe the same? The Holy Spirit guides us and helps us. Our learning must come from those much more theologically inclined...

Kepha, I agree but disagree. What you say above is true and tradition was passed on. 1 Corinthians 11:2 tells us that we are to keep the ordinances that Paul had delivered to us. 2 Thessalonians 2:15 tells us to heed the traditions that have been passed down. This is all well and good. I have a...

Jesus accepted reincarnation? Please post scripture.

The Catholic church never believed in reincarnation. Please show someplace that states this as fact. No Chrisitian religion believes in reincarnation. It is appointed for man to die once and then comes the judgement... We get ONE chance. Hebrews 9:27 Jesus to the thief: TODAY you will be with...

Thanks. (except for the problem of evil)

Looks like you have it all figured out! Can't argue with that. Just want to say that the parable of the wheat and the tares has nothing to do with why Jesus spoke in parables. I agree that the enemy has many children.

That goes without saying. Here's my order... Jesus Apostles Early Christians Church Each must agree with the one above. Without the Holy Spirit the Bible is just another book. 1 Corinthians 2:14

You asked if I think it's necessary to follow the law. If you read my posts, you'd know the answer. We do get to know each other's beliefs. So why doesn't it make sense to follow the law? If I know Jesus , I follow it more, not less. Right?

I like to think we're all Christian. However, if you want to understand my belief system, I'm Nazarene. Which laws do you believe are dead?

1. Could John 3 possibly mean baptism? Theologians are split on this. 2. I asked if Luke 16 was a parable. You didn't answer. It's not a parable. Do you know why? It teaches much more than what you said. 3. You mean God doesn't want everyone to understand Him?? How about John 3:16? My point is...

It wasn't my intention to speak about practicing what you preach. Of course one should practice what they preach. You said that you cannot understand why we should preach keeping the commandments if they cannot be kept. So because they cannot be kept, they shouldn't be preached? This is what I...

What's the problem with the words of Jesus: "I have other sheep" HAVE = Present tense Which are not of this fold, I must bring them also, and they shall hear my voice and they shall become one flock". Jesus preached to a woman in Samaria and told her she was speaking to the Messiah. John...

No enemies. Here's how you preach commandments even though we can't keep them...: The parent smokes. Might get cancer of the lungs or throat or mouth. Tells the child not to smoke. The child says: But YOU do. What should the parent do? Give up telling the child not to smoke? Always preach the...

OK So tell me this: John 3:5 To what does "born of water" refer? Luke 16:19:31 Is this a parable? What is Jesus trying to teach us? Why did Jesus speak in parables?

bb The verse you posted above, which I've highlighted, is John 6:29 New International Version Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent." "Believe" meant something very specific in the N.T. Greek. I've often asked for JUST ONE verse where Jesus says that...

Ya (as quoted by bb) I agree. WHY is law vs grace even debated? What's to debate? Let's take the human example, as we love to do. So God is full of Grace. He IS grace. We don't even understand what grace is although we like to make believe we do. So He loves us soooo much that He's willing...

Why don't you quote the verse? Maybe someone will answer you...

Good morning Word of the day... Behoove Love that word!

This is doable...

I'm sure the o.p. means only movies. Some of us don't watch TV..... Try again?
