Maybe he's Christ returned! If not, he'd certainly make an u-beaut cult leader who clams he is.

So what? The point is, their faith and good works make them "worthy" or salvation - ie, it is not faith alone that makes them worthy and that our works can mean the difference between going to Heaven or Hell.

So what does a believer do when tempted to sin? Are you saying a believer should not use "self effort" to resist the temptation to sin? How does a believer resist sin without using using his free will?

I agree. Rev 3:4 describes those believers who are "worthy" of salvation, because they did not soil their garments, which refers to their good works. Their good works are keeping God's commandments - as Rev 12:17 and 14:17 point out - the saints are those who have faith in Jesus AND keep...

So funny!

Don't know, but he's not short on pride.

I think it's meant to be another of Behold's attempts at comedy. His posts are all very amusing and entertaining.

That's right up there with the most pathetic interpretations of scripture I've ever come across. I'm embarrassed for you. Little wonder you don't understand the rest of scripture. You're clueless. Do you think the "house of Israel" in Jer 5:11 refers to a literal house or building? Is Jesus...

But Jesus is eternally a man - that allows Mary to mediate between us and Jesus - man to man. It's a simple concept that even you could understand, but you don't want to accept it because it's too "Catholic".

The very verse you quoted - 1Tim 2:5 - says "the MAN Christ Jesus"! Jesus is both God and MAN - this means Mary mediates on our behalf, not directly to God, but to "the MAN, Christ Jesus", who is also her biological son - for eternity. Come on, it ain't rocket science.

Good grief. This is surely a joke - no one could possibly be that clueless! I love your sense of humour!

Eph 4:4-14 says it is the Church leads the believers to "unity ... the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ" ... not to mention, infallible doctrine. These things being so, how can you then claim that your personal...

That's true, but Mary is not a mediator between God and man - she is a mediator between THE MAN Christ Jesus and mankind - ie, man to man, not God to man.

Scripture says the Church is the "pillar and foundation of the truth" (1Tim 3:15) and is the "fullness" of Christ (Eph 1:22-23). Where does scripture say the Bible is the "pillar and foundation of the truth"? Where does scripture say the Bible is the "fullness" of Christ? (And I haven't even...

I don't follow your logic:. If your sins don't affect your salvation, why is it not ok to sin? Furthermore, if your sins don't affect your salvation, that means a believer who gives into any and all temptation to sin will still be saved- so a believer can lie, steal, rape and murder to an...

Jesus prayed for unity amongst his followers, but Protestantism is a madhouse of conflicting doctrinal opinions that can lead to all sorts of distress. Meanwhile, over at the Catholic Church, things are much more peaceful, as Catholics rely on the Church to decide what is doctrine...

"work out your own salvation with fear and trembling" - Phil 2:12 Please explain.

So what do you do when you are tempted to sin? Do you give into sin every time, or do try to resist it with your will-power? If you use your will-power to resist sin, doesn't that mean your salvation involves "self-effort"? Or do you believe your sins won't affect your salvation and...

O Wise One ... ever heard of the "law of Christ"? If so, what is it? Furthermore, the word you're looking for is "then", not "than". This primary school error appears in umpteen of your posts.
