    Calvin did not invent the doctrines of grace

    Grace and faith work hand in hand to obtain the blessing!

    Any Post or Non-Tribbers in Here?

    No matter what anyone believes regarding how the tribulation will play out; Mt 24: 21, 22 "For then shall be the great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened there should no flesh be saved: but...

    Romans 3

    Being tempted is not a sin. Dwelling upon it... Maybe so. KJV "For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace." Or in the NAS "The mind set upon the Flesh is death, but the mind set upon the Spirit is life and peace." And; "For the weapons of our warfare...

    Believe in Jesus, reject the Bible, is it even possible?

    There is a world of difference between believing in Jesus and faith in Jesus. I suspect that many Christian Church members, just like the Islam believer with Ala, believe in Jesus, but have never repented so that Jesus would forgive them. A person can believe whatever he wants and then do...

    Baptizing

    Baptism Heb 6:1, 2 KJV "Therefore leaving the principals of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and...

    Genesis 1:1 What is your interpretation?

    Hey Aaron... PTL! I know this is off topic, but here's a minor observation: Moses saw the Lord as he passed by, though it wasn't face to face in Ex 34: 1-8. Ex 34:5, 6 KJV "And the Lord descended in a cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord. And the Lord passed by...

    Imagination

    Thank you for the warnings. Sadly, it's seemingly all to easy and more and more common now-a-days for believers to go off on a tangent as they hurry to understand doctrines and spiritual truths. Scripture warns us all that if any man thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing as he ought...

    Imagination

    Pr 6:2 KJV "Thou art snared by the words of thy mouth, thou art taken by the words of thy mouth." Another example of using a negative scripture positively can be done by snaring ourselves from speaking the Lord's word. A word of caution: This doesn't work for understanding doctrines!

    Imagination

    2 Cor 10: 4, 5 KJV "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ."...

    Regarding the Trib, let me add: When the burning mountain hits the earth after the four horsemen come, polluting a third of the rivers, destroying a third of the world's ships, and killing a third of the world's population: it will not hit Russia as they will be taken out by Europe when they...

    Is this possible

    The only thing holy in this world is scripture and the bodies of those indwelt by the Holy Spirit. There is nothing holy about water. Natural objects cannot be spiritual. No matter how great a deceiver the evil one is, he cannot deceive the Lord, ever! I suspect that Moses is the author of all...

    I'm a mid-tribber... lol In Lu 22 were told, Jerusalem will be trodden down of the gentiles until the times of the gentile are fulfilled. A bit after this in the same chapter we're told, Verily I say unto you, this generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled. We can expect three...

    The Holy Trinity

    The Trinity, imo: The Lord said, let us make man in our image and after our likeness. And scripture tells us that we consist of a body, a soul, and a spirit. The body is made of flesh, blood, and bone which is easier for us to picture as our souls and Spirits are less easy to break down. In...

    Is this possible

    Job states in Job 3:25 KJV "For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of has come unto me." Fear is contrary to faith, so that Job opened himself up by his lack of faith. Which seems only natural when we consider how any of us love our kids and if they...

    Is this possible

    I suspect that when someone hears the Lord's word and is called to God and convicted of their sins by the Holy Spirit and if they respond by believing that word with a godly sorrow and confess that Jesus is Lord sincerely, then they shall be save and delivered with the indwelling of the Holy...

    Christ kept the Law of Moses, so....

    Gal 5:4 KJV "Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace." Rom 3:19 KJV "Now we know that what things soever the law sayeth, it sayeth unto them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become...

    “LOVING GOD VERSUS OBEYING GOD'S LAW”

    Jesus was obedient to the OT law because he walked after the Spirit as we're commanded to do under the New Covenant. The law was changed, which is proven by a change being made to a Melchizedek priesthood. The OT law was good and holy, but the law of the Spirit of life along with the New...

    Faith Obeys The Word

    The scripture speaks a lot about faith and this is how I understand it: Faith is a result of communion with the Lord Jesus, who as the author and finisher of our faith puts a mustard seed of faith into our heart when we first repent and believe. So, faith is that form of believing that is...
