    Go, And Sin No More?

    Go, And Sin No More When we study the Bible with others, or talk about Bible study, the topic at hand usually ends up being buttressed by verses that are carefully scrutinized (every word), and defended with much vigor and confidence. “Go, and sin no more.” (John 8:11) Do we believe these...

    Hebrews 11:6 NIV

    "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Have you ever tried to be pleasing to someone you love, especially when you know that "someone" loves you very much, and you wouldn't...

    With So Many Denominations...

    Update: I'm afraid I haven't made myself very clear. My intentions were to provoke critical/analytical thought harnessed by Scripture--not to solicit personal suggestions per se (not that I couldn't use some, of course). With all of the bright hearts and minds I've encountered so far, in the end...

    how can I love the lord & have faith when

    I find it very hard to love God and to have faith that he will answer prayers and fix the really bad things. Some of the major big reasons I have been finding it hard to love and have faith include: How can I love him and have faith - When he keeps allowing me to suffer the ringing sound from...

    Skepticism

    Why is the amount of skepticism rising in Christianity? As Christians we are meant to be men and women of Faith in Jesus, we are meant to believe that Jesus can still work supernatural miracles through believers by the power of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit lives in us Christians, as...

    You are MADE Righteous

    - Lets talk about the Righteousness of God. 1.) Discipleship follows Salvation. Discipleship: is not the keeping of your salvation, but rather its : the LIVING OUT the Salvation that was already finished by Jesus on the Cross....and given to you as "the GIFT of Salvation". Salvation is...

    Just Finished the "Book of Matthew" -- A New Believer's first step to Understanding God's Word

    Phew! I feel like I climbed Mount Ranier in reading the first book I've completed in the Bible: The Book of Matthew. Or rather this was the first time I read a book in the Bible that I actually understood. My first encounter with the Bible was marked by pure incomprehension. The year...

    Staying Positive!

    Blessings, everybody! A friend of mine recently told me to stay positive and joyful, and I needed it. With everything going on in the world, I think the command in Philippians 4:8 is more important with every passing day. So I'm starting a thread for all things positive. It can be a poem, a...

    Obedience and Blessings

    Back in the old testament, God the father spoke to Israel through his prophets. He is a Holy and Righteous God who does not tolerate sin. You can see that when he deals with Israel in the wilderness and also reflected in the law which came through Moses. He promised Abraham blessings, not only...

    Doubting Thomas

    After his resurrection Jesus appeared to the apostles. One of them wasn’t present. Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails...

    The final age of "fear" (Luke 21:26), overcome by "faith" (1 John 5:4).

    The final age of "fear" (Luke 21:26), overcome by "faith" (1 John 5:4). Fear: Luk 21:26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. Faith: 1Jn_5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh...

    Not by works - but by faith

    8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-- 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Eph 2:8-10 Our...

    Faith and Trust: An Equivocation Fallacy

    The word “faith” generates a disproportionate amount of confusion in conversations about epistemology. Colloquially, the word “faith” is interchangeable with the word “trust.” The accusation that we all exhibit faith in our sources of knowledge is grounded on an equivocation with the concept of...

    Jesus' grace saves and "works" are part of that Salvation

    Many in the Christian world have taken one verse in Ephesians and twisted it to suit their flesh. It's the Scripture that seems to suggest that Salvation requires no work, but that's not what the Scripture is trying to convey. Salvation does indeed require work, but not the works of the Law nor...

    Spirit's Work BEFORE Faith

    Here is a simple question: Do we need the work of the Holy Spirit in our hearts before we have faith? I would say yes, absolutely. This is where my belief comes from. There are a few questions that need looked at from Scriptures before we can make a Biblical determination: 1.) How bad is man...

    True or false?

    While we were out in town today we were approached by two Mormon missionaries. We told them we had been born-again Christians for a long time and my husband asked if they believed they would go to heaven. They told us that their place in heaven had to be earned through good works. What do you...

    How Do We Get "In The Spirit"?

    This was a great question asked by @Soverign Grace on another thread. Romans 8:9 "But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his." Simple truths, simply expressed. You are in the...

    Ageing

    I was thinking about ageing last night, how the ageing process affects every one of us. How it slows us down, how it weakens us and changes our physical bodies as we get older. But in comparison as we age spiritually we should become quicker to trust, stronger in our faith, growing in wisdom...
