No they cannot! They do not own the Media. The only dominance is Talk Radio in America. Yes, both sides can "spin," yet the real question is, whose "spin" can be heard?

Biden/Obama Regime placed America in more debt than ALL 43 Presidents before them... combined! It was an attempt to kickstart the economy. They failed with the worst recovery since the Great Depression. It is true that Trump has spent like a drunken sailor. He never ran on the issue of debt...

If you have to earn it, it is no longer grace. If you are speaking of Acts 2:38 and receiving, it is not in the present tense but the future tense. "Receiving" a gift is not rejecting that gift.

We have access by faith.... into this grace wherein we stand. If one is already standing in that grace, it precedes faith that acts that grace. A person who is already justified has access to God's grace. Growth however, is never "into" grace, but "in" a grace already possessed. Faith is the...

It's not "obtained" in the sense of the will activating it. God precedes with grace, free-will can reject that grace. Simply not rejecting a free gift indicates no merit or accomplishment that activates any such grace. Evidence of grace is a changed life; it is the work of Christ in and through us.

I do not see what you are saying as being the Scriptural use of grace. It actually sounds more like human effort, and salvation is tantamount to a better education, pulling oneself up by their own bootstraps and "deciding" to be saved. Turning over a new leaf may sound good, it may make you a...

I can only say that I cannot agree with the scheme of earning grace or influencing God to give grace by our actions. God is not in heaven wringing His hands in despair over our judgement of Him or our "decision" to activate grace.

No. God offers grace in His time. Our response is either to reject it or to receive it in faith with an empty hand.

Nolte: Atlantic EIC Jeffrey Goldberg Begins Walkback of Anonymous Trump Hit

Trump has already proven that he is more for the veterans in four years, and has done more for veterans that Joe's entire 50 years of Public "service."

I just sold my house about 5 miles away from there last year! Fort Stewart is in the area, and most military have out of state license plates are target for easy money. I made it three days when I honked at a jaywalker at the speed of a slug held up traffic. I was pulled over and fined for...

Great question! The only accepted answer is solely the work of Jesus Christ on the Cross and the grace of God. If you add baptism, church membership, being good, or saying you rescued puppies or ate a Kosher diet, you will be rejected.

Poor Jesus, He is too weak to save us apart from us getting wet and saving ourselves.

Yes, receiving the Holy Spirit is salvation. That is what Acts 2:38 says. One of the rules of Greek grammar, as it is in English, is that the verb agrees with its subject in person and number. This is what is said in Acts 2:38: Repent ye, ---------------------> 2nd person ye shall receive...

You have seen this discussed but refuse to see that 1 Peter 3:20-21 says that Baptism is mentioned only as a FIGURE, that is, a shadow, symbol, or picture of salvation. Baptism does not save; it declares salvation. It was as if God knew that this passage would be misused that He ended the verse...

The Scripture bear out that adding any work as a condition of salvation, cancels grace. Adding Church membership cancels grace if you are depending on it to save you. Tithing cancels grace if one depends on it for their salvation. Baptism, the precise words or mode is often times what people...

Spiritual baptism is not a work. Water baptism is, unless you are kidnapped against your will and force to be baptized. God is not water baptized for you. Hanging someone isn't a work either. Circumcision is also not a work, yet relying on it for salvation, cancels grace. The Galatians had the...

I consider that those who do not acknowledge the fact that Mark 16:16 was unknown to the early Church fathers, and has no evidence of existing for the first 500 years of Christian history, have added to the word; and that those who do acknowledge it have added it. Because if they had added...

You can merely believe in Jesus and you "should not perish" (John 3:16)... far from "iffy." You can believe and be baptized and you "shall be saved" (Mark 16:16). Highly "iffy" since the passage is most likely not genuine. It would be the last supporting verse I would use, and never my...

Whether your reply was to something that was said in jest, many Christian give such advise seriously. Are those that stand up to evil and oppose it, missing what is expected of them? Instead of looting and arson, may I delve into where such a question can go beyond looting and burning? It makes...
