Personally, I believe that the time to celebrate should be Thursday evening. That's when the New Covenant was introduced - if indeed Jesus was crucified on Friday. It is almost certain that Lord Jesus was crucified earlier in the week. Lord Jesus said He would be in the grave 3 days and 3...

Putin has been making threats from day one. He's all talk. It's not even certain that his nukes will work. His last test of an ICBM was catastrophic, blowing up in the silo. He also fully intends to occupy all of Ukraine. He may prefer not to have a radio active country that is totally...

Honesty would be a start. How about not inflated prices with phony markdowns? It's illegal in Australia but still happens.

I've given up on church membership. I understand the point, I just don't agree. I was born into God's family. I did not apply for membership to my earthly family and I won't apply to be a member of my spiritual family. It has its drawbacks. I am constrained in what I can say at times, especially...

I quoted scriptures to back up what I said. Did you read them?

I obey God's commands. I've said before that the Christian life is a life of obedience and faith. Those who have no faith will not obey. However, I do not live according to a set of rules. I live by the leading of the Holy Spirit within me. The 10 commandments have done their job. I came to...

You should study the New Testament on the purpose and place of the Law. You will find that you are living in the shadows of a covenant that is obsolete. That's your choice. It's not mine. I prefer to walk in the Light and in the new. If all we had to do was obey a set of rules, Jesus would not...

Depends. Some keep track of every member's giving. It's not unusual to have online giving. Personally, I much prefer to remain anonymous. It's not always practicable.

Obviously you know little of the New Testament. Dead people are no longer subject to the law even in worldly matters. Who takes a murderer to court if he dies in a police shoot out? I died to the law so that I could serve a higher law, the Law of the Spirit of Life. You do not obey the ten...

"Ends all debate"? You are joking, of course. Either someone is born again or they are not. God's initial judgement is simple: are you alive or dead? If you are alive, then you will not be found in hell, which is the abode of the dead. There are two salvations. The first is the initial, born...

Mixing law and grace now? Utter confusion. And that is not of God.

I was saved while I was in the military. At the time, the Vietnam war was raging. While I was not directly involved except for one week in the war zone, the military does not take kindly to those who do not show up for duty, especially in war time. Also, I knew nothing of sabbath rules. I don't...

For some unfathomable reason, apostles are now called missionaries. A missionary is someone who goes to a place where there is no church and begins to witness to the locals. The missionary's role is to found the church, appoint elders and teach the basics. Then the church is left to grow by...

The law was given to reveal to man what sin is. It was also given only to Israel. The law is alive, but I am dead to the law. Jesus did not rise from the dead to make me able to keep the law. He transcends the law, living in a level of righteousness that is far higher than mere law. He gave me...

Try again. Come up with some real evidence. You cannot because the earth is a globe. Ask any navigator or commercial/military pilot.

If the earth stopped rotating now, instantly, every movable object would not stop at the same time. The oceans would send tsunamis beyond comprehension over the land. That is somewhat out of the ordinary.

You can be seated inside an aircraft flying at 600 km per hour. If passengers were splattered inside the fuselage, FE adherents would have a point. I've flown a bit. So far, so good. Now if the earth stopped rotating all of a sudden, we'd be in real trouble.
