    Pre-Destination, God's Foreknowledge and Choice

    Unregenerate man is able to place their faith in Jesus as their Savior upon the hearing of the gospel and the conviction of the Holy Spirit. God doesn't unconditionally elect any individual to become saved. Christ died for everyone. God's grace is resistible. Once you're saved, you can't loose...

    eyes that will not see

    They actually have a sense & concept: 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and...

    My math teacher once told me that pie are square. :-)

    How to identify good soil?

    I don't think you do. The sower sowed the seed in all 4 grounds. You have to wait for the fruit to show up.

    Is The Earth Flat Or Round?

    Yes. And why isn't a mile in the tip of South America longer than a mile in northern Canada?

    Adam and Eve first people on earth?

    There is only one race of people. There are and have been no other races of people. Red and yellow, black and white are all descended from the single man, Adam and the single woman, Eve; via Noah & his wife. That's the unmitigated record of the Bible. And hath made of one blood all nations...

    Were Nephilim (Gen 6) judged differently by God?

    There's no such thing as "half angel - half human". Sons of God, daughters of men, and giants in Genesis 6 are all 100% human. God judges all humans by the same standard.

    Why are we quiet

    It helps the soul to not listen to the 'news' too much; but rather be a part of broadcasting the good news: (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds) 2 Peter 2:8 (KJV) And he said unto them, Go ye...

    I AM PUZZLED AS TO THE BIBLE BEING THE SOLE AUTHORITY OF GOD'S WORD

    ... keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. John 17:11 (KJV) ... that they also may be one in us ... John 17:21 (KJV) ... that they may be one, even as we are one ... John 17:22 (KJV) All genuine Christians, without a single exception, are...

    Do the Scriptures teach universal redemption or universal salvation, or do they teach both?

    He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3:18 (KJV)

    Is it LAWFUL to kill animals?

    Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. Gen 9:3 (KJV) Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. 13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill...

    What did Jesus mean?

    4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born...

    Interpreting the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus: It's Really Good News!

    I think a better translation is "portion": For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. 6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a...

    Interpreting the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus: It's Really Good News!

    Your video is a farce. The dogs in the account, were literal dogs. Lazarus wasn't one of those dogs. He was a literal man. The rich man's 5 literal brothers were still alive and savable. ... neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Luke 16:26 (KJV) Individual Jews have been...

    NOT EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES WILL BE SAVED

    No. ... without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Heb 11:6 Here are some things the priest, the Levite, the Samaritan, the Samaritans, the Jews, the Muslims, and the Native...

    NOT EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES WILL BE SAVED

    Believing in Jesus always results in being saved, with no exceptions. The believers in John 8 and Simon were saved. John 8: 30. As he spake these words, many believed on him. The text doesn’t say that they outwardly expressed their belief. Jesus discerned who they were. 31a. Then said Jesus...

    He Who Spares His Rod Hates His Son

    God made parents big & strong; and children little & weak, with pain-sensitive padding on their rear ends for a reason. Beat them when they need it. It’s your duty. In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found: but a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding. Prov...

    Does God love everyone?

    God loved every human being, specifically in the sense of desiring each of them to go to heaven when they die (John 3:16, 1 Timothy 2:4). God is love (1 John 4:8, 16) If I loved a person, in the sense of wanting them to escape hell, before they died and went to hell; and God didn't love them...

    The only Evidence of Salvation - by Brother Gregg Jackson

    I agree with most of your post. But I want to say that you're under no biblical obligation to assume that another person is a bro/sis in Christ, based solely on their profession. A profession is just words. You can't see their belief, apart from their behaviors (James 2:18).
