We're here to tell ! :oops:

I like what you said about the new person that might be on board. This is basically the only reason I even discuss this. Why argue it with a mature Christian who knows what he's doing??

So you're saying what also @lforrest is saying? Are you saying that if someone IS REALLY saved, they can't get unsaved... Or are you saying that if someone is saved they will Always obey God? Please clarify. Maybe you're saying both...

OK. Is it possible for a born again believer to live his life like in 1 Corinthians 5:9-13? What if he does?

You're right. I can't do it, even though I've been upset with Him at times. I never left Him. I don't believe I ever will. But does this mean that it's impossible? If it's impossible why does Paul keep exhorting us to stay on the path, to endure. to keep up the good race, etc? If we couldn't...

Oh. You mean when the prodigal son was walking toward the father, he was not dead physically? That is soooo good to know. If you are SPIRITUALLY DEAD, YOU ARE SPIRITUALLY DEAD. The spiritually dead do NOT end up in heaven. Jesus said HE IS THE LIFE. If You're DEAD, you don't have the life...

Since I'm a little child, I will not answer you. However, Jesus did say that the Kingdom of God belongs to children. So I'm happy. BTW, 1 John 2:1 does NOT support your point.

How am I adding words to scripture?? Luke 15:24 "For this son of mine was DEAD (the son was dead when he was in the world after leaving home) And has come to life AGAIN" (this means the son already had life before, then lost it, when he abandoned his father, and now he has life AGAIN) It's...

Jesus tells us what ties them together Himself: There is more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents. Luke 15:7 There is joy in the presence of angels over one sinner who repents. Luke 15:10 We should rejoice because a Brother was lost and has become saved. Luke 15:32 God is joyful when a...

We were discussing John 3 NOT BAPTISM. I'm baptized (Catholic) and I DO believe in doing what Jesus said to do. This includes being baptized. I was taught theology by the CC and I taught there. I learned Protestant theology in the Nazarene Church. Protestant baptism is different. For your...

I agree with you. What do you mean by "Not the other way around"? Luke 15:24 is very clear. It can't be any clearer. The son was saved and living with the father. He asked for his inheritance, which the father did give him , and that was ALL he was going to get. In Luke 15:21 the son...

I don't believe it's at your peril. I believe that if we do our best, Jesus will cover for the rest. It's at the point that we no longer wish to serve God or abandon Him that we become lost once again. The N.T. is clear is saying that IF we endure, IF we hold on, IF we continue to believe, then...

Yes. I take everything Jesus said literally. He had only 3 1/2 years on this earth. He didn't waste words. Every time He opened His mouth to say something, He said something important and for our benefit and salvation.

You're right. WE are under the New Covenant which is superior to the Mosaic Covenant. At what point? We will Always sin. If we are IN CHRIST, we will be forgiven. But God knows the heart. He will not be mocked... We must be sincere in our efforts.

There is no condemnation for those who ARE IN CHRIST. Romans 8:1 But regarding Adam and Eve, are you saying born again believers have more than they had BEFORE they sinned or after?? Before they sinned, they had preternatural gifts that we do not have, even as born again believers. They were...

He may have been a son in name, but please read: Luke 15:24 "For this son of mine WAS DEAD, and has COME TO LIFE AGAIN, he was LOST, and has been found". The son was saved. Lost. Saved AGAIN. Plain as day.

Right. But do you mean this thread???

See post no. 88 Here is what you said: I find it fascinating that you were allegedly taught by the Catholic Church where you also taught the belief and also allegedly taught by a Nazarene Church yet you can not accept water baptism. Both churches have similar teaching on both. First of all...

OK!! Amen.
