I don't follow the point you are making after 'but I have repeatedly.' I believe I am disagreeing with the same poster, btw. Where does scripture teach that? Isn't it possible that a Pharisee that made that accusation against Christ in Matthew 12 could have admitted that he was wrong about...

The issue in Hebrews 6 is not being able to be renewed to __repentance_. The individual's heart issue doesn't allow that individual to come back. The sin being committed there... unbelief... is in the 'forgivable' category, since unbelievers repent and are forgiven for their unbelief. One...

Any sin, except for speaking against the Holy Ghost, can be forgiven if one repents and believes. But one person may repent of unbelief, but another person not repent. Unbelief is forgivable. Paul was forgiven. But do you think those who do not repent of their unbelief will be forgiven...

Saul lay on the ground prophesying naked at night. David escaped. What kind of cooperation did man offer God for Him to make the animals before man was created? What cooperation did man offer God to make man in the first place? Where does the Bible teach that God needs man's cooperation to...

Saul lay on the ground prophesying naked at night. David escaped. What kind of cooperation did man offer God for Him to make the animals before man was created? What cooperation did man offer God to make man in the first place? Where does the Bible teach that God needs man's cooperation to...

huh? The passage in question tells us that speaking against the Son of man can be forgiven. Do you think the Holy Spirit IS the sacrifice on the cross? That doesn't make much sense.

If someone doesn't believe or doesn't repent and isn't forgiven, why would that have to be 'reconciled' with the idea that speaking against the Holy Spirit cannot be forgiven? People can commit forgivable sins, but not repent and believe and be forgiven. But other people who commit the same...

I might suggest staying away from this leader and his or her teachings. Go with Jesus' teachings instead: Matthew 5:44-45 (NKJV): "But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that...

huh? What scripture? The point is... doctrine not taught in scripture. Where does the Bible teach that Satan uses prayers or that the soul has power to allow people to know what is going on across the world? Some of the stuff Nee speculated... it might be true... or not. It is an interesting...

I believe people can have encounters with God. And some people may since the Lord's speaking a specific scripture to them for their life or get a prophetic word, the prophetic word making firm something out of speaking to them... sometimes. Having been raised in a coastal I remember hearing a...

I lived in indonesia. My wife was really upset to find a bag on the little gate that went to the side of the house we were living in. She seemed to be freaking out but I asked her why she would be scared. It had black sand in it. She explained that was a form of witchcraft. Set a bothered...

While the Bible does seem to imply that curses (or deserved) curses can have power, I cannot find anything about Satan using prayers to God. Some uses of 'soulish' Seem to rely on the concept of 'soul power' from Watchman Nee's work the latent power of the soul rather than anything in...

What scripture do you have in mind if any about sending a curse back to the sender? What does this have to do with your money?

I'm not going to change clear straightforward meanings of words in passages to try to reconcile them. We are saved by grace through faith. Without that, we cannot be saved. Speaking against the Holy Spirit is an unforgiveable sin for which there is no forgiveness in this age or the age to...

We can't ignore the meaning of passages to reconcile them. Some people don't know what 'blasphemy' means, and aren't familiar with the Greek word that means something like slander or villify. But there is alternate wording in the very passage in Matthew 12 31 “Therefore I say to you, every...

Blasphemy means to speak evil of. Blaspheming the Holy Spirit means to speak against or speak evil of the Holy Spirit. The passage in Matthew even offers alternative wording, "shall speak against the Holy Spirit", which is good for those who do not know the definition of 'blasphemy.

I would venture to guess that most Americans with a Christian or non-Christian fulfilled the Old Testament tithe obligation leads in terms of the amount to give. If someone owns no flocks herds or fields in the land of Israel than 0% of 0 is 0. That being said we can learn about principles...

I am concerned with ministers seeking titles, especially with those who insist on being called 'Pastor' as if it were their name. But now they are doing that with prophets and apostles, or those who call themselves that. I don't have a problem with someone identifying their gift and role as...

Think about what those verses actually say. It does NOT say, 'Scripture is ALL that is given that....the man of God might be thoroughly equipped." I think some people have exegetical dyslexia. A soldier is given a rifle so that he might be fully equipped, right? But does that mean that...

Where does the Bible teach this... that if we have the completed canon of scripture, there is no longer need for supernatural revelation. The Spirit spoke to prophets and teachers in Antioch and said to set aside Barnabas and Saul for the work to which He had called them. They went out and...
