To me those verses mean that anyone who has his foundation right and retains that foundation to the end or his course will be saved. The foundation as per... "For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ" I Cor 3:11 ...is Jesus Christ. Without that foundation...

If we all did act that way, it is unlikely that there would a multitude of Christian denominations. Maybe we would all already be finally and completely at home with God.

Even so, but not every non-Catholic subscribes to that "false idea".

What if we are the tabernacle and we have to use what God has given us so that we may move first into 1st heaven and then into 2nd heaven and finally into 3rd heaven? 1st heaven is the place of saved, but unclean beasts. 2nd heaven is the place for the saved beasts who have been cleaned...

What is entertaining to Jesus? If we are entertained by something that He would avoid, should we not do likewise?

Remember when Moses smote the rock instead of simply speaking to it? "Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so...

Yes it is very sad where people have gone in spite of all that God has done for them. We too often look to man's purpose and/or to what man would do instead of looking to God's purpose and/or what God would do.

I did not? Hmmm, you really do think you know a lot. What is it you have done to know so much? "... According to your faith be it unto you." Matt 9:29 Knowing nothing of the miracles God has done in my walk with Him over the years and the answers I have received, you sure do draw some off...

Hmmm? So you have already decided? Is there no room to grow? No room for change? "And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man." Luke 2:52 "He must increase, but I must decrease." John 3:30 "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know...

What if the three heavens can seen in the types and shadows of the three levels of Noah's Ark, or the three parts of the tabernacle in the wilderness: Outer court, Holy Place and Holiest of Holies?

I also nearly always skip over such posts as well. I am really here on this forum for a few reasons, one of them being to learn. After a while I simply see certain names and usually move on to another post or thread rather than even taking the trouble to read the text. Some I skip because they...

And some who really have a gift of tongues from God might disagree with you. Do you have a gift of tongues from God? I have been speaking in tongues in prayer since 1976. What do you know of me or of my gift from God? How does a person receive the gifts of the Spirit as you understand it...

Apparently the guests invited to the wedding are saved, but they would not be part of the Bride: "Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and...

Neither do I regularly use commentaries although I have them and do at times refer to them. The commentaries are like the other people on a forum. At times they can be helpful and at times their information seems very wrong to me. Those who wrote the commentaries were also people... and usually...

I've been reading my Bible in the three languages for many years and could not and would not stop. It does feel different, but that does not mean in a bad way at all. It is to me very good. It gives me a very different perspective at times. The newer translations may be better according to...

Sometimes it take a while to understand our friend @bbyrd009 . But then when you believe that you have learned to understand him at times you still will not. Then if you are sincere and ask nicely he will helpfully attempt to explain. Give God the glory!

@GodsGrace I don't know it is funny but it is quite different from the English or Spanish or Italian. I don't have any ancient Bibles, but I do have two old ones. I have my mother's Bible given to her by my father for Christmas in 1940, three years before I was born. I also have a German...

While what you are saying makes sense, what does it mean to God and His Way of communicating with people? If the translators are able to do better because of modern technology and methods as well as better sources or resources, indeed that could be good thing, but if they or we are communicating...

Thank you friend for sharing these things with us. I would insert the following comments: It was not so much that Joseph died as it was that he pleased God and was given a double portion in terms of inheritance. His two sons received the same 1/12 portion of Jacob's worldly goods as each of the...
