    Amen. And it is said to different people. Did Jesus say to you, `This day you will be with me in Paradise?` or `Get behind me Satan?` Jesus said those words to different people.

    OK. All of God`s word is for us to read and learn from, however not all of it is written to us personally. Some is for individuals, some for groups, some for nations.

    That saying was said to the people of Israel under law. So, are you saying that is religion?

    READ ALL ABOUT IT !

    That is really something to take note of. very good. We can be `right` in our truth but wrong in our attitude, so we need to `speak the truth in love.` (Eph. 4: 15) And that is a challenge. I do see you two ladies, (I think) do this.

    Thank you, yes the vessels are mentioned in 2 Tim. 2: 21. very good. I was referring, (and should have quoted) about whom is given etc. (Luke 19: 26)

    A polite question for pretribbers

    Hi stunnedby grace, I think you are talking about what Jesus told the people of Israel who were under the law. That is why there is judgment for them. Remember that Jesus paid the price in full, therefore no judgment. We will receive rewards for working by the Holy Spirit and not doing things...

    The Unity of the faith.

    Hi Bob, Now if you mean `church leaders,` being the organizers of the public meeting, then, no. You see they have to bow to the (unlawful) laws of the land - respect (any religion), tolerate, (any sexual behaviour), inclusiveness, (all gender types etc) However, if you mean `church leaders,`...

    Favorite part of Church or the Gospel

    Hi devin, My favourite part of the Body of Christ is the network of relationships in Christ that I see around me and know is happening throughout the world.

    The Unity of the faith.

    Millions have chosen that path throughout the world, it is just we don`t know them all. I trust in the Lord, the Head of His Body who has done, is doing and will do an amazing work in people`s lives down through the centuries and across the world. I do not measure the Lord`s work, (as some do)...

    The Unity of the faith.

    Hi Matthew, Thank you for asking. As I look back over the centuries, I see that the Holy Spirit has been guiding the Body of Christ into all Truth. We know that the Apostle Paul gave the Ephesians the whole Counsel of God, (Acts 20: 27) but also warned them that errors would come in. (Acts 20...

    The Unity of the faith.

    Agree that Israel and the other nations have not as yet laid down their arms. That will happen under the Lord`s rule (from above) through Israel over the nations. And those other comments are good truths, that we stand for, thank you.

    If that was so, Bob, then what would be the use of standing for truths now?

    Hi Enoch, So, can we look at some truths of the Statement of Faith you adhere to? Maybe we can find more truths we agree on than not. Marilyn.

    A polite question for pretribbers

    The Body of Christ revelation was not revealed until the Lord ascended, was made Head of His Body and then sent the Holy Spirit to reveal the revelation to the Apostle Paul. (Eph. 3: 1 - 7) Thus, Daniel could NOT have been talking about the Body of Christ.

    A polite question for pretribbers

    God`s word says differently. First resurrection - is to LIFE. Second resurrection - is to condemnation. (John 5: 29) The law of first mention applies. So, whenever someone is resurrected it can be ONLY to life or to condemnation. It means the TYPE of resurrection not an order. Always good to...

    A polite question for pretribbers

    Hi ewq, Now Jay said - Everybody, whether saint or sinner, is resurrected to face the final judgement. That is what I was referring to. And yes, we are `judged` on whether we operated in the Spirit or in the flesh. (1 Cor. 3: 12 - 15) However, the judgment is NOT whether we will live or be...

    The Unity of the faith.

    So, I hear from everyone so far, that a great Truth of Christ is that He has saved us. That is the very first truth we need to accept if we are to be set in the Body of Christ. (1 Cor. 12: 18) Good that we agree there. Moving on to other great truths, that incidentally people have been...

    The Unity of the faith.

    Hi stunnedbygrace, Glad you joined us in this discussion. Yes, we need to trust the Lord and be guided by His Holy Spirit. So, (no. 2) can you tell us some of the truths we need to know and stand for about the Lord, so we are not `tossed to and fro...?`

    Good reply, there Matthew. So, can you tell us some of the truths of Christ that we need to stand for against the errors?
