Catholicism was not the “first Christianity” there was. Study history. Jesus said in Matthew 16:18-19 that he would build His church. He did exactly that in 33AD. The New Testament is FULL of references to Christ’s church in existence. Acts 2:47- the Lord added to the CHURCH daily those...

I appreciated your honest heart. Let me encourage you to read and study your Bible, especially the New Testament Which is the testament of Jesus Christ. 1 Timothy 2:9 says “women adorn themselves in MODEST APPAREL… with shamefacedness…which is proper for women professing godliness with good...

This post contradicts such scriptures as James 2:24- “…NOT by Belief Alone.” Acts 3:19 - REPENT and be converted that your sins may be blotted out.” If repentance is necessary for the removing SINS, then there is more you have to do than believe. And then Faith is not the ONLY THING that...

I should also add that Christ’s new law of Faith changed everything about how we worship God. Just as God gave a “PATTERN” for the Tabernacle and a “PATTERN” for the temple, including its worship, even so, God has given us a “PATTERN” for His church and its worship.

If you will look back in chapter 5, Moses tells them in verse 2 that God made a “covenant” with the people who were there at that moment. Those who “are here today, all of us who are ALIVE.” That was the people of Israel—the Jews. He says The people who were before them—their fathers, like...

Just exactly WHERE does the Bible say that “ just because God has things for us to do, doesn’t mean we are not saved until we do them.”? I have NEVER read a scripture that teaches that. I believe that is just your opinion. But there are many scriptures that teach OBEDIENCE is necessary to...

God has put certain laws in force and they will be in effect until the end of time. For instance, gravity. Or the laws of nature. Also, the Bible tells us that choices have consequences, and God has certain “rules” or laws that are always going to be true—like you will reap what you sow...

It is helpful to know that the Bible does not lump ALL WORKS together, as men do. There are at least 5 different kinds of works discussed in the scriptures. (1) there are “boastful” works as mentioned in Ephesians 2:9: these are works that originate with man—works that he can “boast” of...

And yet, James 2 says we are JUSTIFIED by works and NOT BY FAITH ONLY. The Bible does not contradict itself. So if your belief contradicts other passages in the Word of God then that belief is wrong—not the Bible.

There isNO EVIDENCE that Saul was trying to “pray through” to salvation. Jesus has already told him there was something he MUST DO and that he would BE TOLD what he must do. He is waiting on instructions from Jesus. You are simply ASSUMING your position without a shred of evidence or proof...

Saul of Tarsus persecuted Christians UNTIL…he met Jesus on the road to Damascus. Acts 9 He was blinded by a very bright light but Jesus talked to him and told him,” I am Jesus…” Saul BELIVED and asked Jesus, “What do you want me to do?” Let’s just stop right here and ask yourself what do...

You “get” saved when you obey Christ’s commands just like the people in the New Testament did. God gave us commands and then He gave us “examples” of people being saved in the first century. Some of the confusion about that is because there are 2 different laws in the New Testament. (1) is...

“Receives” is still a present tense verb.

This makes no sense. First, second and third person has to do with PRONOUNS. You said Repent is written in second person plural. The only pronoun in t the first part of that sentence is the UNDERSTOOD you. It’s an imperitive sentence and the subject is not stated but understood. (you)...

Sorry, but just because you say so is not proof. That sentence proves nothing because the verb “receives” is still in present tense. You have no proof.

I’m not sure I understand your question. Verse 22 of James 2 says that “faith” and “works” work together. It’s not one or the other. It’s not one without the other . It’s both working together. It’s pretty simple; if it’s not by faith only (verse 24) and He says faith and works work together...

I understand that the context of that sentence talks about something in the future, but that does not make the verb “receives” future tense. To be in future tense it would need to say you will be receiving a package tomorrow. Please give me proof or a source that says the word “receives” is a...

I don’t know whether he was or not but his case has nothing to do with what the Bible says. How people RESPOND To its message is up to the individual and between them and God.
