    What if God had written IN STONE?

    neither are we judged by it, because in Him we have died. we have what's known as actual salvation :) it's not a half-saved-but-maybe-actually-damned situation! God is faithful!

    It is True, Those Who Believe in Jesus Christ Do and Those Who Won't Don't.

    concerning the nature of the physical universe, quantum physics has taught mankind that it is only possible for God, and God alone, to fully predict any outcome.

    It is True, Those Who Believe in Jesus Christ Do and Those Who Won't Don't.

    Convince me there is non-alcoholic wine in the Bible/communion

    like the yeast that by their death add the alcohol to the wine which gladdens the heart and is able to ease pain, unless Christ had died, we would not have the joy of salvation in Him. Luke 9:22 The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes...

    Convince me there is non-alcoholic wine in the Bible/communion

    Isaiah 65:8 Thus says the LORD: "As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, 'Do not destroy it, for a blessing is in it,' so will I do for My servants' sake, that I may not destroy them all." grapes ferment into wine naturally on the vine, with no human intervention whatsoever...

    Convince me there is non-alcoholic wine in the Bible/communion

    He shed His blood dying our life and joy and peace in Christ comes only through death - in Him we have died, because He died - and this death produced a new life, because He also rose. i would argue that the strongest symbolic position is actual wine, not mere fresh grape squeezings falsely...

    i do not believe it is Christian behavior to align one's self with any worldly political party.

    Convince me there is non-alcoholic wine in the Bible/communion

    this is a topic that recurs quarterly and always has the same result, as @Dino246 put. the consensus is the scripture doesn't anywhere outright condemn alcohol and that John 2, Acts 2 and Pesach and 1 Corinthians 11 are all referencing alcohol-content beverages. a minority ignore the reality of...

    Convince me there is non-alcoholic wine in the Bible/communion

    there seem to be two separate definitions of "death" in this one statement - - John 11:25-26 Jesus said to her, "I AM the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?" ? even...

    Convince me there is non-alcoholic wine in the Bible/communion

    He has power over life and death, but in Him is no death. death is separation from Him, ignorance of Him: the scriptures define Him as The Life and define eternal life as knowing Him.

    Convince me there is non-alcoholic wine in the Bible/communion

    reality is that John 2 indicates an amount of good wine dulls the senses such that it is difficult to discern afterwards good from poor wine, and that an expert identified the miraculous wine as exactly that kind of good wine. are you a republican, that you exchange actual facts for your own...

    previously covered. Acts 2:13-15 contradicts that presumption, and John 2 does not call it 'new wine' regardless

    what law? how many people were there? who forces them all to drink every last drop immediately? does everyone who holds a marriage supper commit sin by doing so? does Deuteronomy 14:26 me an God is a sinner?
