Amen! In the beginning, God created everything very good. In the end all of that which is not "very good' will be burned up. For those who have served God, the dross will be gone and only the pure and clean will remain: "For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus...

I do have a commission from God. Part of it is shared with many, but part of it is specifically what God has given only to me. I work at it, but never, never am I satisfied that I have done all that I can. Fortunately, God will take up the slack. I try to pray for everyone especially those I...

Can you honestly tell me that that has never happened before? Give God the glory!

I guess I wasn't here then. I've been in them before, but if it isn't going to edify someone in the things of God, would it be a good thing?

But, does a person have to believe everything that could be or is based on scripture according to some person in order to be saved? "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned." Mark 16:16 What is it that we have to believe in order to be...

I know of no other way. Why would you ask?

We do not have to, but for most part all of us do, because we really do not want to surrender of the death in to the Lord. We like them too much. If we really could unconditionally and without ceasing surrender all to Him, the old man would be finally and completely dead. It is our own choice...

So you are presuming that he was not there because it does not specifically say that he was. That written example is not the only reason I believe what I do, but even if I were to write a long Bible supported discourse, it likely would not change your position. Most people do add or subtract...

This is not something I have thought much about in a long time, so I will simply post here a copy of something I wrote down a number of years ago: The fire that consumes and causes those within it to wail and gnash their teeth is God, Himself. He is the consuming fire [Deut 4:24, Deut 9:3, Heb...

Quite simply, I agree that God may let a person off as He did with David because of David's heart. As to hell, I am an anihilationist, which means simply that I don't believe in eternal torment for unbelievers. I believe rather that they simply cease to exist. I did not want to mention that...

It is not what is missing, but rather than which has not yet been removed that causes us to find still the works of the flesh here as per Gal 5:19-21. If all of are clean, then all will be good. If not...!

Where does it say in scripture that belief in the Trinity of God is essential to salvation? If a person has the Love [Charity] of God within Him what lack of knowledge or understanding will negate that? "And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge...

Everyone around us walking in his flesh without the Lord is dead. They have no Life in them as Jesus clearly said here: "And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead." Matt...

Likely if man's law got hold of him and had proper evidence he would receive that punishment, but to repent to God is another thing, is it not? Consider the one we call the good thief who died on the cross next to Jesus. The man had already admitted his own guilt and that his own condemnation...

We may have a new man in us, but is the old man dead? The old man no longer has the dominion, unless we are quenching the Spirit in us all of the time. "Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth...

As always, God whose judgment it is, would look at the heart of perpetrator. When we see a robber who robbed who simply robbed in order to get something he did not have without having to work for it as opposed to the robber who robbed because he really had some unavoidable difficulties which...

Amen! Sometimes God may show us what is happening or has happened to someone else, but very often He does not. We cannot always believe what another person says even though the person seems to be sincere.

Aborting a child for one's own convenience is likely to always be wrong. But... having said that the final decision still would not be mine even if I were speaking to the woman bearing the baby. I would hope to let her know what her decision meant to the child as well as to her in the long run...

If we were born again, then this would be so.
