    Hi mailmandan, and a very happy and blessed "New Year", if I recall correctly this will put you oh so much closer on the path to becoming a "Retiree" Can you just make one of your statements clear where you say, "We won't need faith and hope in eternity." I reckon the reality of "hope" has...

    Hi Hevosmies, it is much more than a word game, if we are using words to communicate God's plan of salvation for the human race. God set His plan of salvation in motion after the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve "did nothing" to provide a covering for their sin; Gen3:21...

    Hi Grace101, I know you know, I do not believe "it was a set up." :) Doxology: Romans 11:33-36 A Short Hymn of Praise 33) O, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable His judgments, and untraceable His ways! 34) “Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who...

    Hi GodsGrace101, yes I am referring to sanctification as position and practice because I'm referring to two different sanctification's; we are sanctified (set apart made holy) at our 2nd heavenly birth; and we have an ongoing sanctification whereby we grow an mature in Christ through the work of...

    Hi Grace101, I like both of your possibilities and I'm not sure where I stand as of the moment, at least Christians can say we are "forgiven", for Adams disobedience as a starting point. Others, (not me), are saying that it was a "set up" all along and the very beginning of the first "blame...

    Hi Fran, our position in Christ is Justification by the imputed righteousness of Christ; Jesus Christ righteousness becomes our righteousness and this is the reason we are declared "Not Guilty", or "Justified" before a Holy God. When God looks at each born again believer He sees His Son Jesus...

    Hello forum, and why oh why cannot people see that Jesus Christ "paid our sin debt in full" when He died on that terrible Roman cross. The work and fruit of our labor after we are saved by God's gift of salvation, (you cannot earn it), has nothing to do with adding to, or maintaining our eternal...

    Hi Fran, for the world I cannot understand why well meaning intelligent people cannot separate our "Position in Christ." with our "Practice in Christ.", its so easy; God's "Atoning Blood Sacrifice", saves us eternally, that being our Justification and imputed "Righteousness of Jesus Christ."...

    Hi Fran, your a smart cookie, so do the smart girl thing and believe in the blood atonement of Jesus Christ alone for your salvation; we are saved by grace through faith, "Not By Works" Yes heaven is a wonderful reward for Christians, just think, no more tears; no more death; streets of gold...

    Hi God'sgrace, love this bible verse, we do serve a loving God. So that whatever we do if it is leading a bible study; or visiting the sick; maybe helping meet the needs of the poor or washing the dishes at home, we should all do this as if it is Christ our Lord that we are serving. And then...

    Hi E-g, amen and beautiful testimony and I was there myself at the absolute lowest time of my Christian life, there was no pleasure to be found, not even in the old favorite sins, none.

    Hi dokimos, we are "saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, "Not By Works", it is the gift of God." (Eph2:8). Take heart our God is mighty to save and will never leave or forsake you; His promises are trustworthy. "We are "MORE" than conquerors Romans8:37 No, in all these things we are...

    Block out the grace f God? Romans5:20 But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, Hi dokimos, the bible teaches "where sin abounds grace does much more abound", so saying that the more a believer sins, the more you block out God's grace is just a huge biblical lie, As a matter of...

    Hi dokimos, so Eternal Salvation can be forfeited, "how so", please give verses to prove Christians can forfeit their "Eternal Salvation." The majority of scripture points to and supports an "Eternal Salvation." There is a doctrine of the Church called, "Assurance of the Believer." The power...
