Yes I noticed that too . It got me thinking . It all seems to stem from a manipulation of
God's attributes. Change the meaning or remove just one thing on the short list below and they are led to dozens of heresies.

God's self-existence
God is spirit He does not have a material body and is transcendent.

God is trinity
God's sovereignty
God's holiness
God's omnipresence
God's omniscience
God's immutability
God's justice

God is truthfulness
God's mercifulness

God's love
God's grace




Its like following a map . They start just a degree off course, from there on they keep moving further and further away from the mark . It goes to show you what happens when folks don't get the basics often nothing good follows.

HARK! WHAT IS THIS I HEAR... MORE TRUTH?! SO VERY BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE IT! (oh...and the caps are not 'raising my voice in chat, of which I have been accused... ahem...) They are for emphasis out of the JOY OF MY SOUL! Thank you, Laish :eek:

It is a now, but not yet. The Kingdom is here, but not in its fullness. If the Christ has a Kingdom He is over, then He must be King, right?
He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. -- Colossians 1:13-14

He has a kingdom, therefore He is King.


I thought the following was a good comment on this passage concerning being made fit for the kingdom:

From this it follows that it can only be possessed by saints. There is no merit, but there is congruity. If it be a kingdom of light, then only souls who love the light can go thither, and until owls and bats rejoice in the sunshine there will be no way of being fit but by ourselves being “light in the Lord.” - Biblical Illustrator

(Ps 45:1)

MY heart is overflowing with a good theme; I recite my composition concerning the King; My tongue [is] the pen of a ready writer.

You heard an accent? Wowsers! Aren't I the talented one? ;)
We talk to each other on the phone periodically. We talk about ways we can take over this joint. Oops, did I say that out loud?

I've been excluded.

It's okay, I'll have it taken over before you. You will have to seize it from my iron grasp, Baptist swine!

Sovereign Grace

He sent his troops to Boston
To see the dawn
The Atlantic morn (said with a Boston accent, so it sounds more like "mawn")
The sun began it's trace

The army was a helpless fawn
When my fire came along
A dreadful canon's song
Blew his host to space

No, you typed it rather quietly... "say it, forget it... write it, regret it". ;)

I would take you on in a battle of wits, but clearly you're unarmed.

All the world's indeed a stage
And we are merely players
Performers and portrayers
Each another's audience
Outside the gilded cage

Thanks . . . . I was just speaking concerning the kingdoms over which Christ will be King. The Millennial Kingdom, being one in which Christ will rule for 1,000 years.
Can you show me one verse that states Satan is a king?

The Living Bible, Worldwide English, and NLT are the only ones who use the word 'kingdom' in Colossians 1:13 in reference to Satan's domain. Satan ain't king, Jesus is.
