But the scriptures/word of God have been read in the hearing of listeners (as God commanded) ever since any of it was written down, which began a very long time before Christ. These were what Paul referred to as scriptures.....which he said could make one wise unto salvation. They didn't have...

The restoration involves the removal/destruction of everyone and everything that is temporal and not in and of Christ. It's appointed unto man but once to die and then the judgment. The parable of the ten virgins indicates the door to salvation will be shut when Christ returns. Every knee...

Couldn't make this up if you tried:

I think you might be getting this a bit backwards.....isn't it rather that anyone needs to be saved and believe the truth first in order to belong to the church? Unless you are basing it on God's foreknowledge. Since we are "elect according to His foreknowledge"...He foreknows who will respond...

Brother I'm sorry but I'm not sure if I'm understanding your point. I don't believe that means they were exonerated....even if God wasn't imputing their personal sins to them before the Law (if that is the right way to understand that verse), the rest of the passage indicates they were still...

It's not that cut and dried. There are a number of factors involved in Christian growth. To begin with each one receives their own measure of faith and grace in the beginning, some receive greater, some less, and in different ways too, since there are different parts of the body with different...

I believe righteous God-fearing Gentiles were saved the same way that righteous Israelites under the old covenant were saved before the cross of Christ.......as the scripture says, "they without us would not be made perfect". That includes Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham...and however many righteous...

Jesus was particularly praying those particular prayers for the believing church, not the lost. Because those blessings He was praying for can only apply to His believing church.......whoever would be saved. He died for the sins of the whole world.........BUT every soul must RECEIVE AND...

God's word can be a dangerous thing in the hands of the carnal mind. Though this was all foreseen by the Lord just as He has foreseen all things and foreknows who would receive Him and who would reject and resist Him. The apostle wrote that the natural man can't perceive the things of God...

In my opinion, this couple is not necessarily engaged in sexual sin if they have stated their intention to consider themselves married before witnesses and are keeping themselves only to themselves. But it does seem to me that they are sinning ethically since they are hiding their marriage from...

If anyone believes God they believe His word, plain and simple, and not the reasonings of man's commentaries. And God's word says plainly and simply that the MAN Jesus was THE LORD from heaven. Jesus Himself testified in so many words as to Who He was, for those who have ears to hear it.

Just think sister, if the Lord is telling people to put their faith and trust in a mere man and give their lives to a mere man, He would be making all believers into idolators. I don't know how well you know the old testament, but everywhere in it, God is called Saviour. Jesus Christ is THE...

Do you think it is "well" for most in Christendom brother? Should we pretend that it is? Trump is ENDORSING AND AFFIRMING FALSE PROMINENT APOSTATE CHRISTIAN LEADERS IN THE CHURCH. Doesn't sound like things are very well at all. What kind of influence does that exert on his Christian...

Not sure if I'm understanding you or not.....I think we are to go by His words as well as His works.. Jesus' words and the testimony of the apostles are spirit and life, but they are for our heart/spirit to receive, not just to inform the carnal mind. We need ears to hear, as well as eyes to...

I don't know if there is a difference between Mighty God and Almighty God, but just want to make mention, that Christ is ruling&reigning now, and according to the scripture it is at His return that He will hand the kingdom over to the Father: 1Co 15:23-26 But every man in his own order: Christ...

I tried to explain it to you when you asked, not that long ago, but you must not have understood.

@marks, @AngelicArcher, @Wrangler, @RonaldDavidBruno Well, that seemed to touch a nerve. Look, I have my political opinions and lean conservative and happen to agree in principle with what Trump is trying to do. Though I'm not sure of the wisdom of going at it the way he is, but that is just...

Shaking my head. People excuse and justify and explain away anything their idols do. They can do no wrong in their eyes.

The point is, your President liked the video, which is why he shared it........that says something.

So interesting that you compare him with Nebuchadnezzar....remember Nebuchadnezzar,, King of BABYLON, took the people of God CAPTIVE and killed many of them. And Trump posted a video about Gaza which included a huge golden statue of himself......that remind us of anything, oh my! Prophetic...
