The threads here are arguing heresy...each thread The truth is there and the Devil is there fighting it...so all here are not saved...Christians don't argue the false Devil's position


They asked Jesus tell us who you are...everytime He told them who He was they wanted to kill Him

Even in His home town where He spent most of 30 years...who followed Him to catch Him and kill Him...it was the top clergy and He let them get Him...

I agree with you but these other posters are right also .. You can't have freedom unless you are free in Jesus .. The forefathers discussed it and were concerned knowing our form of government and freedom was subject to all kinds of corruption and outside influence .. We have hope if we continue to pray for revival and repentance in Jesus .. I don't think starting a new inquisition is the answer .. But stopping the one from the left that is in progress .. Keep watch and keep praying, I think Jesus is about to make a move in the US for the better ..
That was a odd period in history some say 300,000 got executed during the Spanish Inquisition

it’s called debating ease up a little. your not doing yourself any justice by insulting people in that way.

and it’s a good thing your not the judge of who is saved and who is not

We do not argue opposite positions and debate the Bible with each other...

Paul was doing that with the unsaved..not very much with the saved

Are the sign gifts for today

It's either yes or no

GOD is behind one and the Devil the other...

It's not pre mid and post trib

The Truth if each verse in the Bible is easy to understand..to make an error some times is one thing...but not every thread with opposing views...i said the truth is here...so how would the lie be argued in each thread if the devil's children were not here doing it

Then for goodness sake value them above yourself, if you value yourself as being saved extend the same to your neighbor

I will agree some thread titles and questions are out in left field but I’m not going to say hey you not saved because of these odd titles and questions why because that title just might be a test of my humility

What goes on here is the same as conspiracy theory sites...but this is supposed to be a Christian site

If divorce is just as high in Christian marriages as non...then there must be a flaw in the people and maybe either they are of poor quality or unsaved


Each thread there is God working against Satan

It's sad to say that we are not just not even talking over these threads...

Is Satan a fallen angel....are you guys serious lmao

Then call upon your humility your patience, or romans 12:16

Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.

I adhere to just the KJV in context...we are under NT
so you're suggesting we throw away the constitution and all other laws, destroy the current government and replace it with what, exactly?

love one another?
turn the other cheek?
consider yourselves least; in humility think of everyone as more important than you?

Papal authority ushered in the Spanish Inquisition that lasted for 356 years. From 1478 unto1834.
And that's just one of the many Inquisitions.Aragonese Inquisition of 1248 . Prior to that in 1184 there was the Episcopal Inquisition, authorized by Papal Bull under Pope Lucius III.
Those are but a few. And remember too that Crusades often followed Inquisition.
Humans! We are a savage race, particularly when we believe first that one God loves one sect best.

A Christian nation where people are free to worship Jesus Christ in a lawful manner of their choosing seems wonderful.

A Christian nation where people are free to worship Jesus Christ in a lawful manner of their choosing seems wonderful.
WELCOME To America! A nation founded on many Christian principles, and yet established as a secular nation so as to guarantee, life, liberty, and the pursuit of property. Edited after passage of the 13th Amendment so as to read, happiness.

What influence, in fact, have ecclesiastical establishments had on society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the civil authority; on many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny; in no instance have they been the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wish to subvert the public liberty may have found an established clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate it, needs them not.”
James Madison, [Fourth U.S President, called, "Father of the Constitution] A Memorial and Remonstrance, on the Religious Rights of Man: Written in 1784-85

I'm saying the Bible is there to run govt too...its works for all and everything for living...if Paul had been president of the USA...he would not have secular govt...we need strong Christians to rule...it should be a requirement

In a perfect world all Christians would agree with you. But in real life the world is generally without Christ, thus governments are secular.

However, there is one group of Christians who hold to Dominion Theology. They believe as you are proposing. But that is NOT the mandate given to the Church.

"Dominion theology is also known as Christian reconstructionism and theonomy. Dominion theology states that biblical Christianity will rule all areas of society, personal and corporate. Christian reconstructionism reasons that society will be reconstructed by the Law of God as preached in the gospel and the Great Commission..."
