    What Is Gods Heart

    @Truth David was a good example of a flawed man who sinned and when confronted with it did the right thing. The first choice for our example should not be David, but Jesus, the one who never sinned and never had to pick the pieces caused by his own mistakes and put them together again. We may...

    Yes!!! God does draw all to Him as HE is unwilling that any perish

    And He can only do that with our permission. The power is all of the God, but He gave the choice to us. This where God limited Himself. Men must turn the reins to their own hearts over to God. Likely this will have to be done more than once for God to get all the work done in us that needs to...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    When Jesus overcame the temptations of his own little world contained in his flesh, he had was then complete in that he had overcome all the temptations of a man. In those temptations was the death of men. They were dead because Life was lost when Adam and Eve followed the lust of the eyes, the...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    Something was already there: God "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Gen 2:7 This was how it was with the first man Adam, but that man corrupted himself and his death was the result. All of...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    I really don't follow how you arrived at your conclusion. I see and agree that wisdom was brought forth from God, but this doesn't mean Jesus existed before that. Not if Jesus was previous a part of God as the Word was a part of the Father and was brought forth... Before that there was no...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    Sitting on the throne would be God [Father] himself. He could not open the Book, because He had limited himself by His own Word when He gave men rule over themselves. Men however had blocked themselves out. They could not get into the garden past the flaming sword and partake of the right Tree...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    But although Jesus did pre-exist the birth of the baby in Bethlehem to Mary, did he not also have a beginning prior to that carnal birth? "I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    Who told us to believe what? I Believe what I do and strive to live for God accordingly by submitting or surrendering to Him daily. Some things that I believe may be wrong, but if they are and God considers a change essential, will He not direct me correctly? I do trust Him even if I do not...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    So then does the one who begets precede the one who is begotten? Who existed first? If one did, then one had a beginning and apparently the other one did not. I am using logic, but this is not necessarily supporting what I believe. Rather it is showing the difficulty or even the impossibility...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    Are the three supposed to be equally God? Then why is that the Holy Ghost is always shortchanged by the writers of the epistles in the NT in their opening greetings? For example: "Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    Just to clarify for everyone let us presume to define God. What, we cannot? Yet some will say that God has no beginning and no ending. Is that not at least part of a definition? Can God create another God? If He and does then the new "God" would have a beginning rather than no beginning, ...or...

    Pray for my wife

    Thank you for that @"rockytopva I remember listening to RW Shambach over 40 years ago when I still lived in California. Is he still alive and preaching?

    What Is A Christian?

    Hmmm? I don't agree with your casting aside that verse for that reason, but something we probably can agree on is that Jesus is the Resurrection and Life. Why would people who are dead already need to be judged? They receive no resurrection because the only resurrection is accomplished through...

    What Is A Christian?

    People perhaps read it and other verses that should at least raise questions, but too many people do not really want to question what they have believed for many years and maybe even all of their lives. God's truth can stand scrutiny if it really is truth. Do we have it? We can stop seeking when...

    WHAT Is the Trinity?

    Looking only at your first numbered question. Why is it necessary to believe something not clearly spelled out in scripture or in our heart? I see the possibilities and the support for a belief in a trinity, or not, in scripture. I have yet to hear anyone provide a good answer to your question...

    What Is A Christian?

    "The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish." Psalm 1:4-6

    What Is A Christian?

    People who are already dead require no further judgment. All that is needed is for someone to throw the dirt over their faces when their time to walk around in death is finished. They had hope until they ran out of time.
