I'm not so much making a point than asking a question. From what I'm seeing, nowhere in the new testament do I see Christians called to war or rebel against their government. My limited understanding is that some of Christ's followers were expecting him to establish His kingdom and kick out...

Hi, I know that this could spark a passionate debate - and my purpose isn't to create disagreement - but genuinely wanting to see different (and respectable) perspectives on where the bible, and us as Christians fit within this viewpoint. Even if we disagree strongly - can you please keep this...

Looks like Scott Morrison is stepping in and putting a stop to the China-Victoria Belt and Roads agreement. I'm so pleased to see that even though this is a subject that the media to date has been deafly silent on - that it didn't get past our PM and that he's been working to bring it to the...

Thank you so much David again for your reply... I appreciate your replies, and on each one - there's something that rings with concerns I have had for so long that have been ignored locally. ie: This is a question I have asked so often. The people that I have been with I believe are genuine...

Thanks so much for joining in David H. I really appreciate your reply (as well as others). I'm still not sure where I stand regarding the sign gifts continuing or ceasing - but you have hit the nail on the head with the exact same problem I have faced. In my own journey I've spoken to...

My question would be whether or not He see's me as a good an faithful servant. The only thing I long for is to hear those words when I finally meet Him face to face. I have no questions or cares of why so many things, etc - I just want to know that I'm pleasing Him and are being faithful with...

Hi Josho, I truly would love to see a revival, and what our nations need truly is for people to come to the truth of the knowledge of Jesus Christ, and to put their trust in Him and turn from their wicked ways. Everything you have said is good and desirable, and I believe your heart is truly...

Thanks so much Bobby Jo for your reply. I really appreciate the feedback from a "modern day prophecy believers" perspective. Just to confirm - your take on this is that Nathan was speaking on behalf of God, and not his own opinion, and that true prophets made false prophecies in the name of...

Thanks so much @Hidden In Him for replying. That's a good question. I guess for me - it is that they were truly speaking on behalf of God. Not sometimes hearing God, and then other times it wasn't God - it was just themselves getting it wrong, or they were being deceived by a different spirit...

Yes. Many years ago I decided to try and understanding why OSAS believe what they do. (I didn't believe in OSAS but there were many people I respected that did hold the OSAS view and I couldn't see how they could possibly even consider such a concept from where I stood) As a result of a...

Hi all, A little while ago I created a thread Genuine Questions for Cessationist's I'd like to start by saying thanks to all those who are not cessationists that respected my request and allowed me to hear out what cessationists believe and the cessationists that answered the questions I had...

I believe it does - in that those who have been saved have their spirit aligning with God's. Our spirit hates sin (even though we may struggle with it in the flesh). We repent (choose to turn away from sin) because we hate it, just like He does. Our spirit loves Him (and because of that love...

I think there's more to it than just left vs right and politics. The conflict and rage over masks is triggered by FEAR. One side, FEAR that the virus is going to kill them, and they have no hope - their saviors have not come up with a cure yet - and they're angry that others would dare put them...

Amen. And can we also please pray that God would turn this tragic event around to glorify Him and work for His purpose. Just like with Joseph, what the enemy would use for evil, God would use it for good.

The question I have here is "Righteous and Fair by who's standards"? Personally - I do not hold that people have no choice. Rather I believe that people do have a free choice, and that they are without excuse because the evidence for God's existence is throughout all creation. (Romans 1:20)...

Inspired from another thread going on at the moment - one of the more passionate conversations I've seen over decades seem to come on someone's understanding of the Godhead. Respectfully I ask - I don't want this to be another thread explaining the Godhead as I've seen countless summaries - but...

From what I understand COVID is not new. It's been around for a while and is part of the SARS virus, but has some interesting or unusual attributes to it. As for scientific analysis - I'm sure it has been studied quite a bit - however has some of these studies been manipulated for an agenda...

Thank you for trying to explain your concept - but I think we're on two different wavelengths sorry. I can't follow the logic you're using that separate's one from the other. (Also just to clarify - when I looked up the word ginomai - I got that from the Textus Receptus, which is where the KJV...

Hi Truther, Yes - I believe I follow... I don't understand that at all. Our word? What is that? I also apologise here - but you've completely lost me. I may need more sleep but at the moment I can't follow that sorry... This I have some problems with... You're saying that Jesus was...

I'm sorry Truther - I don't quite follow you here... It says that the Word was with God, and the word Was God? That means that the word was God, correct? Then it says that all things that were made were made by Him (the Word), and nothing was Made that was Made. This means that the Word was...
