    The obedience test for Jesus’ sign of commitment

    @APAK Perhaps too rich for some. Milk to meat can be a difficult transition

    When Is It Time To Die?

    Don't worry about google or any such thing. Just go with Jesus all of the way and you will be just fine! Give God the glory!

    Looking for advice: Can women be pastors

    And who are the women in the church, but the natural men and women who are are silently receiving while God is speaking though the anointed minister of the moment, be that minister male or female in the flesh.

    Looking for advice: Can women be pastors

    This really got going, I believe, with our involvement in World War II. Prior to that time most of the time it was the man who worked outside while the woman worked in and around the home. When most of the young able men went off to war, the women moved heavily into jobs where for the most part...

    Looking for advice: Can women be pastors

    They should be able to do whatever God calls them to do. The same is so for men. Deciding what God's will is for another person may well get us in trouble with God.

    The thief on the cross !?

    I am aware of that, but perhaps others are not. One way to change it on most any computer is to simply hold the control button down while clicking either the + or the - key to increase or decrease whatever is on the monitor screen.

    The thief on the cross !?

    Sorry for this. To answer your question, Yes. I adjust the size to that which is comfortable for my eyes to read. Many of the lengthy small font posts I skip because it is too hard for me to read them. Unfortunately, I cannot please everyone. Any direction I go someone is likely to be...

    The thief on the cross !?

    Do we not live by faith rather than by knowledge? "For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith." Rom 1:17 Do you know that you are right in every point of your doctrines or do you only believe that you? "All the ways of...

    For your sake it would be better for you if you were right. But if you are in error...? Only God gives the increase! Give God the glory!

    The thief on the cross !?

    So then ask away, but be slow to demand an answer. Sometimes questions with regard to denomination or affiliation with specific church groups are asked to feed a preconceived notion or to win a debate rather to edify anyone. Hopefully your purpose is one to which you are led by the Holy Ghost...

    Looking for advice: Can women be pastors

    @LC627 But... having read all that has been written here, remember that God will use what is available to accomplish His purpose. It is clear that God is no respecter of persons in the end of the matter, but He does have the spiritual role of male and the spiritual role of female, which...

    Golden Rule

    Oh the good that we see even in those who we believe to be lost! God does always know, does He not? But then what was it that Jesus said? "And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God." Mark 10:18

    The Death of Lazarus

    @quietthinker Jesus wept for he knew that most of the people all around him would walk their own ways rather than God' s even if they knew better. God loved them one and all, but even of those who would say the right words, how many would in the end of the matter, do the right things? Jesus...

    Golden Rule

    So then it does bring to my mind what it really means to be in His name. The verse that would seem to apply is this one: "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." Acts 4:12 Is not His name something more than...

    Looking for advice: Can women be pastors

    Consider those God used, as for instance, Esther [queen], Deborah [Judge] and Rachel [shepherd girl]. And then again consider that the Bride of Christ is to consist of both males and females. It is really between you and God, but remember also that no matter which way you go someone will...

    The thief on the cross !?

    And do you suppose that you are the final judge on God's behalf? The background of all of us is sin. Even the best of us in the Lord are still growing. Who has all of the answers always correctly but God alone? "Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again...

    "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." Rom 10:9 "And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" Luke 6:46 And just what is it that Jesus tell us we need to...

    Once Saved....always Saved - Results of Questionnaire.

    Perhaps you are saying Jesus' sacrifice did more than it did. He made it possible for people to be clean and alive, but they still had to do what Adam and Eve failed to do … partake of the Tree of Life while without sin. For Adam and Eve it was a possibility while they lived. But they both chose...

    Once Saved....always Saved - Results of Questionnaire.

    What happens to them usually, if not always, is that they lose their love of truth [their first love] and walk on in delusion believing that they are OK when they are not. They have been deluded and the next thing is they move all the way back out in the world of temptation where they once again...
