    The hatred of Jews

    No, everything that you just said as fact is nothing more than opinion. Right wrong or confused that's the bottom line. I think the idea of another "Gods" temple is an impossible idea that slaps Jesus across the face and is such a HUGE step backwards that I feel one would have to wonder if they...

    The hatred of Jews

    Well if the Jews were cut off from Him I could understand your point, but they're not. The Jew can come to Jesus still. The covenant still stands without the Mosaic system in place anymore. Why is this so hard to understand? Why would you assume it's broken if you don't think the same as you...

    I am struggling

    HMMMM, God's chosen people huh? Well what exactly were they "chosen" to do? It's my understanding they were chosen to bring forth the Messiah who all nations of the world would be blessed through. Guess what? THEY DID IT!!!!!!!! WWOOOO!!! They were Gods chosen people to bring forth the Messiah...

    Do You Believe/Are You Baptized of Water and the Holy Ghost?

    I don't find myself agreeing with you very often here on CC, but I couldn't agree with you more on this. I was born again (born of His Spirit) before I got baptized. To be honest I'd imagine this is the way most born again Christians do it. The order seems right. That said I was baptized in...

    Preestination and Free will Questions?

    You are asking about one of the biggest mysteries of God here, in my opinion. How does God work with our wills, to bring about His perfect plan? Ultimately I believe this is just one of those thing beyond our ability to understand. I kind of grasp the idea that God is outside of time and space...

    Gods will vs mans free will

    How is he wrong? The main difference I see between you two when reading your conversation is that you lift up "us", "our choice", "the decision we make" WAY too high to the point it starts to seem like what we "have to do" in order to be saved. It's the same problem those who say we can lose our...

    I am struggling

    Can you please define "Replacement Theology" for me, because I'm not 100% sure exactly what people mean by this when speaking about this issue. Is believing that God chose and used Israel to bring forth the Messiah, they did so exactly how He told them He would, and now Jesus is the only way to...

    Gods will vs mans free will

    Sorry I hit "post" too early on that first reply and had a little more to add. It wasn't until lunch the next day that I even realized what happen, and it was at lunch that it hit me. "I haven't thought about killing myself all day!!!" Then and there I knew 2 things. 1. Whatever this was, it...

    Gods will vs mans free will

    I understand what you're saying and I really want to make sure you understand I'm not disagreeing with you here or trying to correct you. I just want to share with my view on the choice you're talking about here, who get's the credit for it, and how much power is truly in this choice in the big...

    Gods will vs mans free will

    I know, and I don't want to be "ugly" about it, or let my ego get too ahead of itself, but to be honestly debating on a Christian website about if men are born into sin or not is just crazy to me. I understand the larger debate here about men's free will Vs Gods, I get that, we can have...

    Gods will vs mans free will

    This does NOT say they are born "sinless". If we are going to play the game then the rules need to be the same for both. This states the physically obvious, but does not say that mankind is born in a state of sinlessness. Not at all. Again I find it insane to be on a Christian site, debating if...

    Give me your top 10 Christian worship anthems

    I always liked Casting Crowns - Nobody. I can't attach the video from this computer, but I always really liked that song.

    The Gospels and the Mystery

    The word there is aiōn that is end of the AGE, not world. This is the perfect example of where King James Onlyism bites you in the backside. The translation of this word to "World" is a HUGE reason the pre-trib rapture gained so much footing. And it you take this version and lift it so high that...

    Who was the letter to? Unbelievers? Nope. He was talking to/about Jewish believers.

    Gods will vs mans free will

    Something about these verses I saw all wrong before and recently had brought to my attention was me thinking that when Paul wrote this he was talking about the atheist when he said "Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools", and I just kind of laid it over what I see today, but he is...

    Settling the Elect and Predestination Question

    So salvation is put completely on our shoulders huh? That doesn't sound like a great gift, or very good news to be honest. If it's up to me then I guess I'm going to burn. That sucks.

    Gods will vs mans free will

    Sure does seem that way. Crickets since I asked for some scripture to back up their "claim". Which I don't really like saying claim because they really make no definitive statements or case, they just like to tear down what others say that they disagree with, yet never build a case for their...

    Gods will vs mans free will

    So show me the scripture that says we are born perfect. Simple as that. Give 1 that backs up we are born without sin.

    Gods will vs mans free will

    Here are a few scripture that point me to man being fallen from birth. Genesis 8:21 And when the Lord smelled the pleasing aroma, the Lord said in his heart, “I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the intention of man's heart is evil from his youth. Neither will I ever again...

    Gods will vs mans free will

    Okay then, so where does it say we are born perfect and not born sinners? I don't think anywhere.... Yeah you may have to think a few of these things out brother, but this follows perfectly. We are born fallen, every man a sinner, none are righteous, not even one. How can this be when there...
