@Marymog The old men I mentioned are not just physically old men. The apostle Paul speaks of the old man and the new man here and a couple of other places: "That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in...

The "how often" is as often as we are remembering Him. How often should we read the Bible or pray in remembrance? I read and pray daily, but as with eating our natural foods, just once a day is probably not enough. When I am on forums such as this one, I am continuously interrupting my read and...

Perhaps the word condemn might not so easily fit, but... "Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees." Matt 16:6 And also: "Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God." Matt 22:9

Just don't get lost in the shuffle, my friend. Belief in the trinity is not going to disappear and even people who read what I wrote are not so easily going to change positions. The Pharisees in the time of Jesus had a lot on their side, and for the most part they and their followers were...

Oh, I have expressed it before, but often in the midst of so many scriptures and so much disagreement, people cannot see the forest for the trees.

Yes, this is what the man of flesh is as a result of what Adam did in the garden. But then came Jesus onto the scene and into the hearts of people through the Holy Spirit... So then who was being called righteous by the psalmist here? "For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the...

"The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun." Ecc 1:9 But Solomon in all of his wisdom was writing about the flesh and the things of the flesh for which there would indeed a be final death, but...

Perhaps one of the stronger arguments I have found in scripture against the trinity is found in John 17: "Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be...

Or perhaps it is that doctrines only take us so far in the right direction and then will they divide us? Remember the verses that our friend @bbyrd009 has often quoted at least in part on this forum? "For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her...

Strange isn't it how God works? I started as a Catholic and had never read the Bible when I was drawn into the UPC. Of course they soaked me in their own pet doctrines [who does not?], but they also taught me beginning at age 32 to read the Bible. Except for one serious period of backsliding I...

Without "eyes to see" who is able to see your halo alone or among many?

"And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me." Matt 10:36-37 "He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son...

@bbyrd009 does not come from, presently, [as I understand him], I believe, an organized group of men with many conclusions already drawn prior to the beginning of any discussion. While he may admit as I must also admit to still holding to some of those conclusions as well. Right or wrong, would...

Yes, but exactly what is it that He sent? Is Jesus the Messiah? If, yes, then just exactly what is or was Jesus? Then again what exactly are Christians... according to God rather than according to men?

Exactly so! Give God the glory!

Give God the glory, my friend!

Actually the best testimonies are on behalf of the Jehovah's Witnesses who for the most part refused to cooperate with the Nazis and suffered greatly as a result. But... not many mention them other than to say they are a cult. Persecution of Jehovah's Witnesses in Nazi Germany Jehovah's...

Just keep on holding on twinc.

But, do not forget that a minister is only a servant. He is not the boss. That job belongs to the Head.

Nein, mein Freund, das is nur ein Mensch.
