What of the covenant in Jesus' blood per Matthew 26:28? Isn't that in affect now so that we can be forgiven of our sins?

How we want to be loved doesn't change as a result of becoming a believer. How and why we love others changes. Loving in a self sacrificing way, giving of ourselves without expecting something in return. This is the love of the believer, a love like God's love for us.

Jesus wasn't dead yet when he called out: "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" But even though you misunderstood my point, going of on a tangent about the afterlife.

I'm not sure if Ukraine would have had the technical ability to maintain them. Wouldn't be able to count on Russia to keep them from becoming duds over the years.

The south wasn't permitted to leave the union, neither would California be permitted.

I believe Psalm 103:12 "As far as the east is from the west, So far hath he removed our transgressions from us." So we have a God who can forgive and forget sins yet he is omniscient. Its a variation of the old paradox, can an omnipotent God make a rock so big he can't lift it? Can God who...

The descendants of the serpent refer to all people who are spiritual descendents of Satan. They are all who have not been born again of the Spirit of God. Those born again are God's spiritual descendants. There are only two sides to this war. Most are not possessed by Satan, but are more...

Satan is more intelligent and crafty than any of us humans. He knows the scriptures and he knows his days are numbered. There is no reason to teach him. You will not change him, and his fate is sealed. To think otherwise is pure arrogance. It should be clear that the scriptures were speaking...
