Hello Again! I'm going to try to break down my thoughts little bits at a time, and provide some references for my own! I'll start my response with a bit of the logical, and then move onto the Scriptural as well to show where my thinking comes from. Generally speaking, it is impossible that...

Hello again! I'll be replying shortly; just wanted you to know I hadn't forgotten, and appreciate you taking the time to correspond with me!

All those who are His people in spirit, all those who are considered "One in Christ Jesus" (Gal. 3:28) - so all those for whom Christ laid down his life in his redemptive act on the Cross.

@Behold Hello again! If I might ask a simple question - What, in your eyes, did the death of Christ actually accomplish for his people? Hopefully we can have a good discussion about it, though if you wouldn't mind (for my own sake if nothing else) would you please including the verse...

Hello Friend! Firstly, I would like to commend your bravery for admitting the things going on in your life. We tend to paint this perfect picture of what it means to be a Christian in our minds, and a lot of the time miss the part that we all have troubles and struggles - to be in Christ is not...

But Heresies are based on verses - so how can we be sure of anyone's interpretation of these verses? I understand that you are using references to ideas that have been gleaned from a reading of the scriptures - words such as time of the gentiles and apostles to the gentiles are phrases that are...

So there’s really no point in basing doctrine off of Scripture then, since anyone could make it say anything.

Just a question… isn’t the point of teaching to inform those who DONT have knowledge? (I.e. - if you want people to see the truth of what you’re sayin, what harm is there in quoting the passages from whence you get your ideals)

I’m really glad you enjoyed it! Unfortunately, Bahnsen himself has since this was recorded passed on - but he has written many books and other resources on things such as tradition vs scripture and even apologetics, if you’re interested I could give you some titles! Bahnsen is one of my personal...

Bahnsen does an excellent job of dealing with the problems inherent in tradition. Thought you might be interested!

Hello everyone! I know that I often times share books that I am reading - apologies if this gets a bit annoying to some, but this book is definitely worth sharing - Theonomy is one of the best books I have picked up and started reading in a long time. In today’s day and age, ethics is one of the...

This is what confuses me the most - how can we have a direct revelation from God without it going directly against Revelation 22:18? Because if it was literally God revealing and speaking to a person, would that not give this revelation every valid requirement to make it an addition to...

If God gave someone a direct dream straight from him (direct revelation), that would be every bit as canonical scripture as any other book in the scriptures. But uh…. Revelation 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto...

Personally, I believe that to be “dead to sin”, as described in Scriptures, is much like telling someone “You’re dead to me”. Not saying that the person LITERALLY ceases living, but rather that in to you and in your daily life, sin has gone from pleasant to abhorrent - it indicates the Spirit...

I personally like the non-facsimile version a bit more; it just makes it a much more viable study/daily bible than the facsimile, as honestly I cannot read the facsimile very well.

Hello there! I will be honest, I am not sure I know all too much about the error you mean; if you are talking about Acts 7:5 compared to Genesis 13:15 would be my best guess, but I do not want to assume - if you could give me more detail and we could discuss it a bit more in length I wouldn’t...

Hello all! I know it is out of the blue a bit, but I just wanted to share; I have begun slowly making my way through the 1599 Geneva Bible by Tolle Lege Press, and I must say that it is by far my favorite translation I have read - it is similar enough to the KJV to make memorization easy, and...

What I am saying is that people can make the conscious choice to not read the Bible at all… as in, I can wake up today and say “I’m not going to read my Bible today”

Twisted logic? I can type a post in English, Spanish, OR I can chose not to post anything at all.

People can choose to not pick up and read ANY version of the printed Bible. It is not foolishness it is logic.
