    Believers and non believers; what's the difference?

    God is love (1 John 4:7-8 & 16). If you love, you are saved; just like the Samaritan in Luke 10, and those in Matthew 25:33-40, who were unaware of their faith in loving their neighbor, representing love for God. They who believe IN Jesus in John 3:16, include the Samaritan in Luke 10 who never...

    Believers and non believers; what's the difference?

    Many will say to Jesus,: "Lord, Lord..." (Matthew 7:21), to whom Jesus will reply never having known them (Matthew 7:23). Only those who do Gods will shall enter into the kingdom of heaven. And what is to do the will of God who is love? The will of God is for us to love God and our fellow man...

    Believers and non believers; what's the difference?

    There are many who claim they have received the Holy Spirit and are born again, who in truth are they in Matthew 7:23 to whom the Lord will profess never having known. If we love one another, the Lord who is love, then knows us.

    Believers and non believers; what's the difference?

    The angels will do it eventually, but not while the two are growing together. There comes a point when the Lord considers the growth sufficient to commence the harvest. We see the wheat harvest being first in Revelation 14, while the tares are second. In the Olivet discourse we see the tares in...

    Believers and non believers; what's the difference?

    The genuine revival you hope for is what the Lord refers to as shaking the earth again in Hebrews 12:26-27. This revival/shaking of the earth will shake out the things made by man. These things that are made by man are the tares who camouflage themselves as true believers in God and His Christ...

    Believers and non believers; what's the difference?

    And yet the Lord informs us of the wheat and the tares, and for His angels not to pull up the tares, as it would also uproot the faith of many of the wheat. This means, that much of the wheat being intertwined currently with the tares is unaware of who these tares, whom they consider to be their...

    Believers and non believers; what's the difference?

    Yes Runningman, those who truly love God/love, results in acts of loving our neighbor, as is described in Matthew 25:33-40. There are, however, also those who will have cast out demons, proclaimed the Lord, and have done a number of good works, to whom Love (the Lord) will declare, never...

    Believers and non believers; what's the difference?

    They in Matthew 25:33-40 believed IN loving their neighbor, and thus believed IN God and His Christ, even though they did not recognize their faith in love as such. In contrast, those in Matthew 7:23 who did many good works, cast out demons, and proclaimed Christ, did in fact not believe in...

    Believers and non believers; what's the difference?

    There are two types of people; those who believe IN God and His Christ, and those who do not believe in God and His Christ. Within these two groups, however, are those who believe themselves to be believers in God and His Christ, who in fact do not believe, to whom Christ will profess never...

    Why do people just cut off what they don't want to hear?

    Good morning BrightBreezyMorning, Unfortunately, we are currently where the weeds are mixed in with the wheat, and because of such, much of the Word that goes out to others, goes out by the weeds. These weeds are they who when others see them not practicing what they preach, then regard the...

    Are we missing the good news ?

    Hello Pilgramshope, According to the Word there will be many who will think they believed in Christ, to whom Christ will proclaim never having known them (Matthew 7:23). The question then is: What does it mean to truly believe in Christ so that we should not perish, but have everlasting life? To...

    Are Christians more accepting of charlatans then we should be?

    Hello LostSoul, I believe the time is now upon us where the Lord is again shaking the earth, so that those things that are made by man, such as are many who claim faith in what is Christ, but in fact are not, will be shaken out (Hebrews 12:26-27). I strongly suspect that when things begin to get...

    Rectify the Nebuchadnezzar and Daniel timeline dilemma

    You have not provided any answer by simply saying there is no problem, without providing an explanation. King Nebuchadnezzar communed with Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah following their three year internship, after they had learned the Chaldean language.

    Rectify the Nebuchadnezzar and Daniel timeline dilemma

    I do recognize that much of the Word in sequential chapters often returns with data in retrospect to that in preceding chapters. If, however, you will note, after Daniel provides Nebuchadnezzar the interpretation of his dream, Daniel is then awarded great office in his realm. This great office...

    Rectify the Nebuchadnezzar and Daniel timeline dilemma

    In Daniel 1:1, King Nebuchadnezzar lays siege and takes Jerusalem. After returning to Babylon with captives, Nebuchadnezzar orders his chief steward of the eunuchs' to gather certain of the children of Israel from the kings seed and of its princes (Daniel 1:3). These children were to have no...

    The Apostasy

    He that received the seed in stony places and receiveth it with joy, yet has not root (Matthew 24:20-21), are they who have little grasp of the Word. These individuals are they who cherry pick what they want from the Word, and reject that which they do not want to acknowledge. These individuals...

    The Apostasy

    You are quite right, that this isn't when times like those of Noah, or those of Lot are occurring. Those days of carnal euphoria come in after the abomination of desolation, who in allegiance with the beast and the dragon usher in a new system that the whole world who are not written in the...
