Christ is Risen!

I come from a post-supersessionist position. I comprehend the supersessionist position. That said who can speak to every little nuance someone may hold on any given position? Yet concerning the OP, I don't agree that is a slam dunk refutation of supersessionism. I think we all concede the...

This topic is one that is based in time, Once Saved Always Saved. Yet this perspective speaks nothing of God's eternal view. Let me pose a few simple questions to stimulate thought. 1. When is salvation for the believer enacted? 2. Will God be surprised by who is saved or not saved? 3. For an...

This actually is a fallacious argument. How would one know to honor the Shabbat unless you were told? Is this just something all infants just know intuitively? Or perhaps this is just an attempt to derail that OP?

4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in...

Moody is a great school! Liberty University is the #1 online. I would pony up and get the accredited degree if you want to go towards vocational ministry. Especially if you desire to teach in the future at a college or university, almost everywhere will require an accredited degree. Here I...

You are being misleading. I believe this is the Hebrews verse you are speaking of: Hebrews 8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion sought for a second. No one disputes that there is an old covenant and a new covenant, yet you use the language...

Pro Jesus Anti Paul, Simply by your screen name it seems you seek to divide. Yet I will continue with you for a little while. Let me ask. Who disregarded all the words of Christ? This is your straw man, and a false accusation...not very Christlike. Also you addressed nothing in my post to...

8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, "In you shall all the nations be blessed." 9 So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith. - Galatians 3:8-9 There is one gospel...

No you are nonsensical and intangible because of your interchange of concepts and topics. Semantics... But rather than doing this he said she said thing, with you continually building straw-men lets look to this passage... "Look at Galatians 5:6, a crucial text in seeing Paul and James in...

I am not using the word incorrectly... Tangible adjective 1. capable of being touched; discernible by thetouch; material or substantial. 2. real or actual, rather than imaginary or visionary: the tangible benefits of sunshine. 3. definite; not vague or elusive: no tangible grounds for...

Richard, Words take on meaning in a context, and can have different implications depending on how you use them. The semantic domain of a word can be very large in any given language. For my chosen word 'tangible', this is how I was using it: Tangible: • clear and definite; real: the emphasis...

Here is another straw-man argument. But something to ponder...by placing their belief, faith, trust, and confidence in His Son's work...is something we all must do to please God otherwise God's wrath remains on us. Religion.

Richard, Well no, I never said we are saved by our tangible works. We are saved by God; our salvation is in Christ. Your post is a straw-man argument.

If your faith is not tangible it is dead because faith produces fruit, tangible evidence of faith. A tree that produces no fruit is worthless and is cut down and tossed into the fire. Not only that, the confession of faith is a tangible act. Confessions are so tangible that men are imprisoned...

Richard, Both of these quotes are yours. #1 "In the dictionary the word “religion” is defined as what man does for the God they think exists. However, true Christianity is about what God has done for mankind." #2 "Salvation is the work of God. People would do well to place their faith in His...

I know, and neither am I.

Oops... :blink: I meant this for the OP....LoL.

Awesome testimony! Praise God.

To the OP... It seems you already have your answer in mind... So why ask us? Yet I agree with Oz and Wormwood that not all speak in tongues. But you seem to be questioning God's desire for all to speak in tongues by citing this verse: Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to...
