    Did Jesus Die on The Cross for The Just/Elect/Saved Whose Names Are Written in The Book of Life OR

    God accepts the payment of His son's death on the cross, that's all that's needed. Receiving it is our faith response of that free gift. For it is by Grace through faith. Faith is not a work. It's simply agreeing with God we can’t save ourselves and we need Him. Trusting in Christ is not a work...

    Hi Magenta, You're right, that's complete nonsense! The Lord sets the condition. It's by His Grace through Faith. Faith is a response of humbling ourselves before Him. By doing so we show we can’t save ourselves. \o/ Praise God! 😊💕

    JESUS CHRIST'S ATONEMENT FOR SIN IS UNLIMITED; How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to life: AND FEW THERE ARE THAT FIND IT!

    Hi MerSee, Jesus said He is the gate in John 10. Verse 7 - “So Jesus said to them again, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.” Verse 9 - “I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.” Of course it helps to read the...

    Did Jesus Die on The Cross for The Just/Elect/Saved Whose Names Are Written in The Book of Life OR

    Hi Cameron, Yes, when they reject the just payment made on their behalf, it is just for God to punish the sinner. Romans 5:17-18 For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign...

    Old Testament Judge and King.

    Thanks again Nehemiah. I'm studying Judges right now and we were asked a question what the difference is between the two. There's a scripture that says, "Everyone did what was right in his own eyes, because there was no king." That's why we have the question.

    Thanks so much Nehemiah6, But doesn't a governor or judge kind of rule over the people. What would be a list of duties that would describe the differences between the two? Thanks so much! :)

    Thanks so much Dino! :) I was wondering what would be the list of duties of a king verses the duties of the judges.

    Old Testament Judge and King.

    Hi guys, What is the difference between a Judge and a King in Old Testament times? I've tried to do some research, but not much is coming up on a search. I looked on Strong's, but it just says king. Can someone please help me?

    Imagine Heaven

    Thanks Nehemiah! :) I was thinking of Paul's experience too. But that wasn't a near death experience was it? I think of his as being similar to John's visions. I think of Stephen at his stoning. He saw heaven and Jesus at God's right hand. Isaiah saw the throne room with God's train...
