    Joel & Victoria Osteen: This Blew My Mind

    1 Corinthians 1:21-24 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a...

    Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 7:6-7 6 But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had...

    The call goes out generally to everyone. Those who are chosen are the ones who come to Christ and receive Eternal Life. Acts 13:46-49 46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and...

    John 1:12-13 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Acts 13:48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were...

    Struggling reading through romans 8 & 9 and Calvinism.

    All anti-Calvinist, humanistic heresy comes from people placing their WISHES above the facts of Scripture. Its inherent in their humanistic doctrines and anti scriptural and anti Sovereignty of God.

    Struggling reading through romans 8 & 9 and Calvinism.

    People try so hard to disprove Calvinism that they become really dumb when doing it. If the Atonement isn't limited to believers and it applies to everyone then it makes Scripture FALSE. There can be no condemnation of ANYONE because ALL SIN has been paid for. The Atonement is OBVIOUSLY...

    John 10:25-28 25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. 26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give...

    Has God always existed?

    No. There can't be a time before God. Because then that would indicate that God didn't create all things. And time is one of the things created. "in the beginning". Beginning of what? Beginning of Time. Hard for us to fathom, but God is not constrained by time or any other of His...

    A list of inspired and non-inspired books mentioned in the Bible that are not part of our canon.

    I would think it is because sitting represents authority and power. Like a "sitting" judge. Mark 16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

    A list of inspired and non-inspired books mentioned in the Bible that are not part of our canon.

    I always wondered why Hanakkuh wasn't in the OT. I wondered why it was a Jewish holiday. Then I inherited my Grandma's bible and she went to RCC. I read through the apocrypha and it was in one of the Maccabees. It was a celebration for rebelling against Rome. Although the rebellion was...

    Observing the sabbath???

    Sin is more than law. Romans 14:23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin. Because the Law is removed. Galatians 3:24-25 24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by...

    Galatians 3:13-14 13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit...
