    Former satanist, now have found Christ

    I have not experienced miracles. But fortunately, faith with which there is salvation promised doesn't depend on experience of that at all. There is basis of the gospel we know, with trusting God who we know is good, having a changed life that bears witness. With having the Bible available to us...

    Questions

    I believe there are those who take very specific passages that they apply much more generally to everyone in everything, such as this case of Paul addressing a problem in a specific church. It is not so with the Sabbath, which was for a much wider application which has many of those who...

    Share Your Interests, Hobbies, Collections

    Many show visual things they make, I do not have that ability though. I have interests, even a number of interests, but none are a hobby to me. Writing I do is like a hobby to me, but I go much further than that, writing stories in the best way I can find, to share and in cases get published...

    Who are the covenant people

    The old covenant is specifically with the priesthood, sacrificial system, and its ways for being made clean before God. As such there were types which were really for directing the people involved with all that toward Christ, who alone was always the effective way for it all. Without the needed...

    Who are the covenant people

    People are all called to acknowledge God and to repent, to turn from sins when they see God's way, and God already makes known to come to God as Christ came and provided for that making it possible. All people are to be reached with this information yet God makes known to any that respond to...

    What is a church?

    Church as it is mentioned in the Bible, all of that in the new testament of it, is used with differences in meaning. But it never was meaning a building. There are any community of believers who generally are meeting together, with activities together as singing and praying, and being helpful...

    One Baptism

    Whatever you call it, the body of Christ in the world now are all the real believers, those really in Christ, whether there is church or not. Our washing from unrighteousness that is contrary to God is the effect of the atonement from Christ who we come to with essential faith having repentance...

    Who are the covenant people

    Did you learn more from that with checking? Circumcision was an outward sign (others then would see the sign among one another then. Things have changed for most since from back then). In Christ there is the reality for real believers who are his followers, that earlier circumcision was a sign...

    If Jesus Joined This Forum . . .

    What if Jesus joined this forum? ? What would be more relevant to ask ourselves is what if we did what Jesus said and showed us? And he showed God's word is for us. And God's will was shown from the beginning, with compromise to accommodate us along the way. And Jesus showed this will of God for...

    everything is predestined?

    Not everything is predestined. Believers are predestined to conform to the image of the Son, Christ, in which should be starting the with us now already, so we should cooperate in that. It doesn't mean all things are predestined purposely, though what will happen will happen, believers with...

    Urgent: Mom Might Not Make It 🥺

    Sunshine will really help. Vitamin supplements will help too. And the Forks Over Knives way, which can be found online, with a helpful book and the documentary, would be very helpful if followed. May God show blessing with real improvement.

    Do you worry about Election interference

    That is really a great issue to any trust being justified. I saw many of the fellow believers around me becoming fully supportive of Trump, and I recognized this direction was making a cult of many of these believers, and for what? I only saw this more and more since. Trusting for America to be...

    Who are the covenant people

    Being baptized is not actually a commandment for us to become, that is shown in scriptures. There is the requirement that Christ said, in the final words shown in Matthew 28, to go into the world making disciples and baptizing them. So, it is required of them to be baptizing. This could just be...

    Psalm 119 - Love for God's Law

    Christ us everything for the sacrificial system for us, the sacrifices, the priesthood, and the ways to be made clean to be acceptable before God, these things in the old covenant were types for what Christ makes available. Animals do not need to still be killed for us, believers understood this...

    JESUS CHRIST'S ATONEMENT FOR SIN IS UNLIMITED; How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to life: AND FEW THERE ARE THAT FIND IT!

    Jesus Christ is the way, those who come to salvation find it in Christ, those who reject him never come to salvation. We were told that way is broad, many reject Christ and miss the narrow way.

    The meaning of salvation

    Salvation is provided with God's grace, through what Christ has done, to us with our response of faith that was made possible, which is always with repentance, in which we turn from sins to no longer be separate from God but be restored to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who says what we...

    Who are the covenant people

    Knowing of the covenant is not part of the gospel for any to be saved. But agreeing that there is God that we need restoration to and repenting with faith that would have us included in Christ who came for us, with the way shown and bearing all that was needed, for our restoration, is. The...

    Do you worry about Election interference

    I've lost faith. I am a believer in God. But I've lost faith in public elections, at state or federal level, really solving important things.

    Psalm 119 - Love for God's Law

    Jesus did not separate himself and what he spoke and taught from the scriptures we have as the Bible. And he never spoke about any of the law that is from God in the Bible coming to any end, as long as heaven and earth last. I do not know how real repentant believers who have Jesus as their Lord...
