    Where is the part about worshipping Mary and the Saints?

    James: explained

    The problem is not that you post scripture, it's that your interpretation (courtesy of your church) is so egregiously wrong. Let's start with John 5:25-29 25 “Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear...

    James: explained

    By what standard is one considered to have veracity? Only God knows the relationship between himself and his children. I don't think that God is using an abacus to count our works. Perhaps I am missing something, or I have misunderstood you. That is not my intention.

    James: explained

    Question. Are you saved by Jesus' blood, or baptism?

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    It should be obvious. Angels say things and people say things. No person should be saying "Hail Mary". And... since Mary is dead (she is dead, no matter what your church says) you shouldn't be praying to a dead person. The Bible says there is ONE mediator between us and Him, 1 Timothy 2:5-6...

    Do we know the year of Christ's return?

    I read the scriptures every day. Jesus said even He doesn't know. If He doesn't know then it would be presumptuous and even arrogant of me to contradict his words. I agree that scriptures also provides clues to when it might be upon us. I believe that just as much as I believe Jesus, I...

    Do we know the year of Christ's return?

    No, I didn't miss a thing this time (but I certainly can). The word generation has many definitions which you can prove to yourself. You are almost 80, are you saying you think Jesus will return before you pass on? You could be correct and if that happens, no one will rejoice more than I.

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    Me! A lawyer?! No, but I am working on the last part of my research for my Ph.D in education. My dad taught me that compassion for others will never fail me, but emotion misplaced is dangerous. There are things that get my blood to boiling such as abortion and child abuse (in all of its...

    Do we know the year of Christ's return?

    Respectfully, that is speculation. Maybe you can help me understand your point of view by telling me what scripture tells us to look for before He comes. Just remember, the Apostles Peter and Paul thought Jesus would return quickly. Martin Luther as well. So did Charles Taze Russell...

    How to be saved (born again) and join the family of God!

    Yes, my friend. The only way to avoid the teachings of men is to read the teachings of Jesus Christ. God Bless

    How to be saved (born again) and join the family of God!

    I never thought about it this way, but what you have said is spot on. Amazing. :)

    How to be saved (born again) and join the family of God!

    Only if you read something into my words which is not there. Isn't that the MO for the Catholic Church. The scriptures don't say anything about purgatory, but they find a verse where they can manipulate the real meaning into a payday for the Church. Thank God for Martin Luther. From the 95...

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    You are assuming facts not in evidence! LOL (Sorry, my Dad is a lawyer). I don't care what happened regarding the teaching by anyone other than the Bible. That's it. If it's not in the Bible I don't care what men taught. Your church taught all manner of theory. There isn't any scriptural...

    Do we know the year of Christ's return?

    Just a quick story. When my mom was a little girl, she went to Sunday School and never missed. In 1948 her teacher told her about the Jews being returned to their homeland. The teacher's interpretation was that this generation would not pass away before Jesus came again. Since then over 70...

    Do we know the year of Christ's return?

    Thank you providing your position. I can respect it even if I don't agree. Second Coming Date Setters Second Coming Date Setters by Pastor Clinton Macomber History has recorded horrible repercussions that came and continue to come as a result of people who ignore the Word of God and think...

    How to be saved (born again) and join the family of God!

    Post snipped. I don't follow Justin Martyr, Augustine, and certainly not the anti-Trinitarian Origen. I follow Jesus Christ and his Word is more than sufficient.

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    An 'angel' is not a human being. This should be clear to anyone who has read the account. What is the Hail Mary that Catholics say so often? | GotQuestions.org

    Do we know the year of Christ's return?

    I do care what scripture says. And it records the words of Jesus. Matthew 24:36 36 “But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.
