    What is New Testament Faith?

    As you can see by the differences in teachings that we all believe is correct, you can't. The only time we can be sure we are teaching truth is when we quote the Bible, and even that is subject to errors of the version we choose to quote. God reveals His truths progressively Pro 4:18; Dan...

    A look at Luke Chapter 16 - May God Guide this for you by the spirit

    This is a parable I have never been able to come to terms with, the man was a criminal, a thief. Instead of prosecution however, he was glorified. That was a parable I could never quite get, the steward was a thief, yet Jesus commended him. Of course the message in it's proper understanding is...

    Is there a relationship between John 15:1-11 and Revelation 14:18-20?

    Hi Daniel, welcome to the forum sir, great question. To start with this vine is not referring to Jesus, rather God has great anger against it. God's anger for this vine was announced long before as Zeph 3:8. Isa 63:3-6 too speaks of the day of God's anger, speaking about that time. Take note of...

    Born again = Righteous

    There are several passages that identify salvation Joe. It boils down to this sir, those who are truly calling upon His name listen to His voice, and obey.

    Born again = Righteous

    I believe the Bible is God's word, so I believe what He says about death, but you are absolutely correct, that will be the time that proves it.

    Born again = Righteous

    Paul quoted a verse there Joe, it was not new. If you have a cross reference Bible it will list where the verse was quoted from, if not, Paul was quoting Joel 2:32 which reads: Joe 2:32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of Jehovah shall be delivered I use all...

    Born again = Righteous

    No sir, 144k have been selected to go to heaven to rule as Kings and Priests in the Kingdom of God that is coming. The Kingdom you have prayed for sir. There will be an innumerable amount of people that survive the great tribulation Rev 7:9,14 and billions resurrected.

    Born again = Righteous

    Since the dead know nothing, their beliefs have not changed Be God chooses those who go to heaven, you simply cannot baptize yourself with holy spirit Simple, you die. Everybody goes there when they die, even Jesus. He was the first to be resurrected from it, and the remainder will be...

    Born again = Righteous

    Thanks for asking Joe, as you know with the sin of Adam things changed considerably. It was God's intent they fill the earth with perfect humans. With his sin, God had to take a different route to complete it. He foretold a seed that would bring this to completion that would become King of a...

    (Matthew chapter 2) I don’t understand the Bible

    Yes sir, God has always educated His people from the time of the first covenant. He still is, care to venture how He feeds His sheep in these last days?

    Born again = Righteous

    Since your version altered the quotation, I seriously doubt you realize that was speaking about Jehovah, am I correct Joe?

    People claiming to have seen Heaven

    Every account recorded in the Bible of humans seeing heaven was a vision Joseph, if that helps sir.

    Greek Dative of Reference

    For is the connector Pano. Keep in mind the Bible didn't have verses or chapters or even books when it was originally penned. The old testament had been combined and did exist in Jesus' day, as many of the terms he quoted as well as the apostles as found in the new testament were quoted from the...

    Aorist subjunctive

    Sometimes it is easier to understand some passages if you take into account who they were said or written to. For instance the book of Romans was written to those called to be saints, particularly in Rome, but would apply to all Jesus' disciples who were called to that position Pano. These ones...

    1 Corinthians 15:24-28 Explained

    You did great on explaining this RR, but I think a bit off on the time. Everything will be reconciled to God when Jesus hands the Kingdom back. That will take us to the point we were before the sin of Adam. Even after the demise of satan, the demons, and those who follow him, one could still...

    Born again = Righteous

    Do you believe that everyone will be saved Joe? You posted many verses to seem to indicate that sir, but I want to comment on one in particular since you put it in red, I believe you wanted to make a point with me: Who is the Lord that verse is talking about Joe?
