If this is all christianty has

[mjrhealth]

Who? Christ?

Did you capitalize the "H" in Him because you now recognize His Deity?

No because He is Lord, but I dont think He cares over such petty matters that christians make into mountains.

Your grasping at straws, would you have me believe a lie just to please you

Like this bit,

Joh_20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

Jesus asked us to follow Him not a book, religion or men.

Jhn 14:19, Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
Jhn 14:20, At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

Of course not; but Christianity is not a lie.

You don't believe in the living and true Jesus Christ of Nazareth; your Jesus is another Jesus than the Jesus of the Bible (2 Corinthians 11:3-4; John 8:58, Exodus 3:14; Hebrews 1:8-9).

That's it; kick him when he's down, JBF.

I don't think that he was down at that point.

 

[BarneyFife]

I don't think that he was down at that point.

I think he was pretty low when he started the thread, JBF.

 

[mjrhealth]

Of course not; but Christianity is not a lie.

Im not talking about christanity am I, is this not a christian forum, very little truth.

 

[BarneyFife]

But Jesus said MANY shall come from the east and the west and sit at table with Abe, Ike and Jake ... He said His Father's house will be FULL.

John the revelator says he saw a great multitude which no man could number.

When Peter asked the Lord "will few be saved" Jesus did not say "yep, 'fraid so Pete" He said in effect "that is not your concern, your concern is to enter in at the narrow gate"

If we will come to the Lord aright [the narrow gate] He can use us to save others. He saved John Wesley and John Wesley went straight down from the narrow gate to the gate which is wide where folks were striving to get in. Untold multitudes were saved through John Wesley.

Whatever condition the church is in, and there are some good ministries out there, people are still getting saved. The Lord is still working.

That's just good stuff, Billy.

My apologies to you, @mjrhealth, if what @BarnyFife says is true..

 

[justbyfaith]

I'm talking about Christianity, which has as one of its tenets the Deity of Christ.

 

[BarneyFife]

Not sure what you're asking...

Jesus made it clear that His Deity is an essential doctrine for salvation (John 8:24).

If people don't see it as clearly as me, they need to get there....or they will not be saved.

Man, that's just warped, JBF. What do you think happens to distant peoples who never hear the name of Jesus?

@Billy Evmur,

Welcome to the Boards!

Man, that's just warped, JBF. What do you think happens to distant peoples who never hear the name of Jesus?

They are without excuse because of the testimony of creation and conscience (Romans 1 and Romans 2).

 

[justbyfaith]

No because He is Lord,

There is one Lord (Ephesians 4:5), even the Father (Matthew 11:25, Luke 10:21).

You still gonna say that Jesus is the Lord in light of this new information?

 

[BarneyFife]

They are without excuse because of the testimony of creation and conscience (Romans 1 and Romans 2).

What do you think the testimony of creation and conscience is, exactly?

 

[BarneyFife]

There is one Lord (Ephesians 4:5), even the Father (Matthew 11:25, Luke 10:21).

You still gonna say that Jesus is the Lord in light of this new information?

Are you suggesting that Jesus is not the LORD?

He is Lord or He is not.. that dont make Him God, and it is not new... still pressing into that lie.....

 

[mjrhealth]

thats mens religions and that has nothing to do with God, you are the one who is demanding this not Him plays no part in ones salvation.

 

[justbyfaith]

Are you suggesting that Jesus is not the LORD?

No, I'm saying He is the Father.

 

[justbyfaith]

There is one Lord (Ephesians 4:5) and He is God (Mark 12:29 (kjv), Acts 4:24 (kjv)).
