    The old nature and the new

    I believe as you do that we all are given the ability to "Choose" but I believe that ability comes from God as Jesus states in John 6:44,65 We are all born in sin so our natural instinct is to sin, unless that nature is changed (and we are powerless to change it) we will continue to reject all...

    wHY DO cHRISTIANS CONTINUE TO INCLUDE THE WISEMEN (Magi) IN THE NATIVITY DISPLAYS?

    So now I seem to be accused of wanting to eliminate the wise men from the Christmas story, I guess I am missing something here, I started this post by mentioning that the wise men were not in attendence at Jesus birth, I agree they are, and should be, included in the story of his birth but not...

    wHY DO cHRISTIANS CONTINUE TO INCLUDE THE WISEMEN (Magi) IN THE NATIVITY DISPLAYS?

    I am not saying it is in anyway harmful to mention them but I do think it is harmful to promote a LIE,and pass it on to future generations, read the Gospel of Mathew (The whole of chapter 2) and you will find that "The Young Child" is mentioned 9 times and a babe is not refered to as a "Young...

    wHY DO cHRISTIANS CONTINUE TO INCLUDE THE WISEMEN (Magi) IN THE NATIVITY DISPLAYS?

    I suspose your right but on the other hand it is promoting a lie the same as displaying the navel on Adam (who was made from dirt and not born of a woman) in the painting of him reaching out to touch the finger of GOD or the Sculpture of Michelangelo's David as a young Jewish man...

    wHY DO cHRISTIANS CONTINUE TO INCLUDE THE WISEMEN (Magi) IN THE NATIVITY DISPLAYS?

    I believe that most Christians are aware that the wisemen from the East did not attend the birth of Christ and yet generation after generation feel it is necessary to include them in the nativity scenes that are displayed why is this?

    What are God's laws now for?

    Off hand I can't think of any LAWS that God through Christ has given to those of us who live in the age of Grace and no longer under the law but I do believe He has given us some powerful requests such as those He spoke in the last two verses of Mat.28 and in the words of Mat.5, 3-10....God...

    Understanding and interpretation

    I think I understand what your saying ...For instance If Jesus and God are one in the same , How can Jesus be setting on the right side of his self.in Heaven?

    what DOES the Holy Spirit do? confusing.

    If someone can quote me a chapter and verse from either the Old or New testament where robbing God refered to money I would appreciate it as tithing in the bible was to my knowledge given in the form of live stock and grain, correct me if I am wrong (I often am, if my wife was living she would...

    Resurrection and Ascension

    For what it's worth, and that isn't much I agree with your thinking as only one person in history has been resurrected, a number of people have been raised from the dead only to die again, I believe that this is true not only of Lazarus but also those Saints who came out of their graves after...

    Did anyone get Raptured?

    I dont believe anyone but Jesus has been Raptured but than again I guess we have to define the word raptured as we don't find the word in the bible, as we know Jesus was taken back up to heaven after His resurrection but than we read in the second book of Kings 2:11 that Elijah went up to heaven...

    When Did Nakedness Become A Sin?

    I realize that nakedness is refered to as shame but where and when did it become sin.or is it?, Adam and Eve covered their bodys with leaves and hid from God because in Gen.3:10 they were naked, and even God wanted to know who told them they were naked, I realized that they were unaware that...

    Creationism And Sinfull Nature

    What that tells me is that God is not ALL powerful if He allowes Satan to do what ever he wishes with his called out people,elect,chosen or what ever He chooses to call them, look at poor Job even God says he was a good man but allowed Satan to do every thing to him but kill him, what kind of...

    Creationism And Sinfull Nature

    In reading back over a number of posts that were posted in another question and answer forum I came across, one that gave me pause to wonder. We are told that sin entered into the world through one man Adam and was passed on to every proceeding generation (i.e. we are born with a sin nature)...

    Why Is A Bodily Resurrection Necessary?

    This may seem like a foolish question but I quote the reformer William Tyndale when I say "If the soul be in heaven, tell me what cause is there for the resurrection" which makes sense to me when you consider that our bodies were designed by God to inable us to function in the world He created...

    Miracles of Christ

    Well worth remembering, but have you ever wondered as I have if these Miracles of Christ had never happened would the world of His day and ours accept Christ on His words only without the evidence He gave to them who came to him, for as I recall many would be deciples after hearing what He had...

    I believe I was blessed with a visit by the Holy Spirit on 1/10/78 at 6:30 A.M. in Huntsville Al.....The following is a reaccountment of that experience: On the night prior to my recieving what I believe to have been a Spiritual certainty that GOD not only really exists but that HE is...

    Was The Law Of Mose Set Aside At The Cross ?

    I agree with what you say yet He (Jesus) did change some of the laws given to Moses in that He said to no longer stone to death adulters or disobediant children, approve of divorce, hate your enemys, and others, isn't that doing away with at least part of the 613 laws origionally given to Moses?

    How Do You Know If You Are Saved?

    I don't claim to know that I am saved I only choose to believe that I am, There are very few things in life that I can say I KNOW but many things I believe and hope for.
