    What Is Salvation In The Bible?

    Our salvation is our walk with Jesus. We are cleansed and purified so that we can know Him and have His love flowing through our lives to others. Jesus demonstrated through the cross He is worthy to be trusted and believed in and accepted. If you can see that in one sense Jesus dying to pay a...

    What Is Salvation In The Bible?

    "The keys to eternal life" - I wonder how many desire eternal life, or live in guilt and perpetual fear, or live in presumption, or love Jesus. At a distance if you look at a close relationship you will see the interactions and behaviour that is going on. "Now this is eternal life: that they may...

    Where in the scripture is anyone called to be a Christian?

    The Koran is claimed to be the dictation of Gods word. Part of the Torah is dictated by the Lord, the ten commandments were written by the Lord on the tablets. Most of scripture is specific messages or interactions with people, which bring the richness and love of walking with God from the...

    New Prime Minister?

    The truth is our society does not know how to be tough and realistically accept its limitations. But as the pressures increase so will the solutions, which will become more brutal and difficult. You are not talking a woke government here, you are talking a conservative right wing government. To...

    New Prime Minister?

    I agree that continuing into a federation of Europe was never going to work, and the politicians in Brussels were going this way. The problem is a hard brexit was equally not what anyone said was their aim or how things would work out. In reality all the politicians said it would be easy to get...

    New Prime Minister?

    The politics are actually quite simple. We should not have left the customs union and literally nothing has come out of Brexit that was worthwhile. All the politicians understand that in time we have to re-establish reasonable trading links with Europe, and get our economy under control. Boris...

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Thank you for your honesty. I suspect in real life terms, how we judge truth in complex situations that require interpretation and an extended set of ideas and realities, we will always go the way our hearts lay on us. It does not mean we are right in an objective sense, it is the limitation...

    Democratic Party deceit.

    This is an interesting point. Laws are actually made to distinguish between those who do need correction or dealing with and innocents. The question then becomes to the society is what do they enforce and how this is done. It is easy to say here is a law, but how it is implemented is critical...

    Democratic Party deceit.

    The Lord showed in Israel he takes care of both. If one is the richest country in the world, when in this position things turn inward, then perspective has been lost and wealth is destroying ones soul. It seems a vision has been lost, that will conquer the unknown and lay a path to follow. By...

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    You sound like Saul before he became Paul. If you listen to Paul and feel his heart, love is the transforming issue in his life. The trinity has always been something that is a consequence of an encounter with Jesus not because it makes sense, which it does not, or is anything other than the...

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    The argument about God being 3 or one comes down to the value of the cross and the meaning of the resurrection. I have wondered about this my whole life trying to find adequate words to make sense. Jesus is talking about love, forgiveness and trust. We are very lost, hurt, alone, cut off...

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Its is an interesting problem. Imagine Jesus coming and saying "I am God". Jesus would get a following for His status not for what He says. The Fathers discussion with Adam was about not eating of the tree of knowledge because if he did he would die. This is about the status of man verses...

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. John 1:1-4 1 That which was from the...

    Democratic Party deceit.

    As individuals how can we stop a government from being corrupt? The debate about how you get institutions that work, is an important issue. Helping countries to not become victims of drug gangs is an important step. Blaming people for wanting to find a way out of a situation they are born into...

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Jesus is Gods word in human form. Every part of God is eternal, and any part expressed in any form is God and eternal. I used to think God to be God had to be all of Him in any one place. But the Lord is eternal, so dwarfs anything created. How we perceive the eternal will always be limited...

    Democratic Party deceit.

    You will never get rid of them, just make it harder or easier to cope. The problem with idealism, is people will always compromise and find ways around, adapt, feel and work through issues. Prisons are to deter folk who need guidance and keep the most difficult cases out of society. But it will...

    Democratic Party deceit.

    I have heard this argument before. Often immigrants are here because they are prepared to take risks, and anything is better than the life they had in the country they are coming from. To survive in the black economy often means they have to work very hard, because nothing is easy. In the UK...

    Democratic Party deceit.

    With the border the size it is in the south it is impossible to stop illegal immigration. The radical left and global elitists always have wanted to take over everywhere. The strength of the US was its democracy and way of life. The US is still the leading super power, has the biggest economy...

    Democratic Party deceit.

    "it's also TREASON" - as far as I understand treason it is a betrayal of ones own country to an enemy or foreign power. It is easy to get people emotionally worked up using the worst case of betrayal, a treasonable act, but helping immigrants is what the USA was founded upon, as the whole place...

    Democratic Party deceit.

    How many people understand supply and demand economics? Or exploitation of a work force? Or bribes to get contracts? Or lobbying to protect industrial interests which are literally harming people? I have read some who think everything went wrong when currencies left being valued against gold. A...
