you are the one that adds to....


and reject all of His children are saved

you act as if someone is killed

gets sick

or is harmed they do not have the Holy spirit....

this is not true


(assuming you are speaking of the flesh here)







though im glad you havent fallen for the deception all His children speak in tounges



(do you not remember what happened to many of the disciples?)

of COURSE God can protect us from fire
or lions
or sickness
or any single thing


but His will is done

and some of us may die or be harmed for a greater good

and this will not mean they do not have the Holy spirit or arent brothers and sisters in Christ
JESUS SAID IN JOHN 10:1 [PARAPHRASING] "IF YOU DON'T ENTER BY *THE DOOR* [WHICH MEANS THE WAY JESUS SAID] YOU ARE A THIEF AND A ROBBER."

CAN'T YOU SEE THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING?

IF GOD SAID MARK 16:16-20; I CORINTHIANS 12:7-10; 13; ACTS 1:5;8 WHAT CAN *WE* DO ABOUT IT (ISAIAH 55:11)? ISN'T THAT OUR EXAMPLE OF HOW WE GET IN BY "THE DOOR?"

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO BELIEVE, WHAT GOD SAID OR WHAT WE'VE BEEN TAUGHT?

THAT'S ALL I'M SAYING! WE HAVE TO DO IT LIKE JESUS SAID OR WE'VE CREATED OUR OWN "jesus" (I CORINTHIANS 8:5)!

I *NEVER* SAID "WE DON'T GET SICK" AFTER WE ARE FILLED BY THE HOLY GHOST! I HAVE STAGE IV CANCER THEREAFTER! MAYBE IT WAS A "TEST" LIKE JOB; I DON'T KNOW BUT I DO KNOW "I BELIEVED" AND WAS HEALED! THANK YOU JESUS!

do you understand the context of the verses you are posting

when Jesus says He is the door He is specifically contrasting the difference between the GIFT of salvation by grace through faith

and those who try to EARN their way

(thiefs and robbers)

You deny Revelation 22:18-19? GOD SAID "Don't ADD or TAKE AWAY from HIS WORD!" You deny this?

Did the disciples have "faith ALONE" on the day of Pentecost in the Upper Room (Acts 1:14)? Weren't they "praying and begging" although JESUS had PROMISED (Acts 1:5)?
In rev god said do not take away from this prophesy (not the bible, the book of revelations)

And yes, they had faith alone, Yet they were saved long before acts 1: 5

IGNORANCE!

THE ENTIRE BIBLE IS A BOOK OF "PROPHECY" EXCEPT WHAT YOUR VICEGERENT ENTWINED!

THEY WEREN'T "SAVED" BEFORE THE CROSS AND ANYTHING BEFORE ACTS 1:5 OR THE "ONE BAPTISM" IS NOT "SAVED!" WHY DO THINK PAUL ASKED "THE CERTAIN DISCIPLES" IN ACTS 19:1-3 "HAVE YOU RECEIVED THE HOLY GHOST SINCE YOU BELIEVE" (V2)? "HOW WERE YOU BAPTIZED" (V3)?

JESUS WOULDN'T HAVE SAID "HE THAT BELIEVE AND IS [HOLY SPIRIT] BAPTIZED SHALL BE SAVED BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT SHALL BE DAMNED" (MARK 16:16) AND WE KNOW IT WAS HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM BECAUSE MIRACULOUS "SIGNS FOLLOWED" IN MARK 16:17!

NOTHING "SAVES" BUT THE BLOOD OF JESUS (HEB 9:14)!

With "SIGNS FOLLOWING" (Mk 16:16-20; I Cor 12:7-10; 13; Acts 1:5; 8)?

1 Corinthians
12 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.

3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.

8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:

11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.

13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

14 For the body is not one member, but many.

15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?


16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

17 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?

18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.

19 And if they were all one member, where were the body?

20 But now are they many members, yet but one body.

i hope you stop adding to what it means to be born again incog....


:(

i can see some man or woman has pressed this issue deep in you to not see all who are made new have differences in gifts

and to accuse someone who may not have a gift you have of not being Gods child is actually evil assuming they have been made new and are as adopted children already


and you are perverting the gospel to say any specific gift is required out side of being saved by grace through (genuine) faith

Ya know... a lot of people may be watching this back and forth, and although you may be making a valid point here or there, what is coming across is you screaming in people's face with your all caps, and exclamation points. THAT is certainly not displaying love, which MUST be our primary fruit.

And even when a debator acknowledges a particular point you make, you do not afford the same back to him or her, but scream the same 2 or 3 verses over and over again, NEVER pausing to consider Scripture that THEY post.

Please step back, and respond in love.

I do not think he understands the basic concept that everyone name is written in the book of life. Their status is not updated until they die, If they die in unbelief, they are blotted out. If they die after having been adopted as Gods son, their name will remain.

God does not add names, then subtract them if they mess up. then add them again, etc etc.
So, you now say that "everyone's" status is not "updated" until they die ? If so then what is being "saved" all about to you ? If their status stays the same until they die, then what is being "saved" ? You contradict yourself something terrible with these statements here. And your last statement disagrees with Revelation 22:18-22:19 as God clearly states that He may take away "subtract" a name under certain circumstances. But you contend He cannot do that. I think God knows much better what He can do than you do.

lol.. If they were not saved before Acts 1: 5, Then no OT person was saved, you just condemned abraham, Moses David Daniel all to hell.

And could you please stop yelling..

I wish you would explain the same to nonamemcgee. Take a look at the HUGE words he places on the page. Not fair to point out one and not the other, I don't believe. Responding in "love" also requires truth, which some are trying to avoid here.

Exodus 32:32
And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book

(upon judgement if you have even 1 sin on your account your name will be blotted out....... this isnt for some people this is for EVERY single man)


Revelation 3:5

“He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.”


(to be covered from EVERY SINGLE SIN we have done we must overcome....and our name will not be blotted out)


1 john 5


4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?



ALL glory to God



LD...
i hope you come to the truth


and God breaks the false flimsy grace peek-a-boo salvation doctrine from you...


i actually used to believe that garbage too...
but His children are indeed saved forever

not one of us who has been born again will end up in the lake of fire

no matter how you try to twist and manipulate scripture

Well, I think there is a distinction between emphasizing a few words in caps, or bold, or enlarged, with entire posts in all caps, ending in exclamation points.

As for truth, I haven't seen any UNtruths spoken by Noname.

It's hard to accept TRUTH after being "rooted and grounded" in UNTRUTHS for so long! GOD "revealed" these TRUTHS and all I ask is that you "Search the scriptures to see if these are so" (Acts 17:11) but "Only GOD can draw" (Jn 6:44).
