    Understanding God’s election

    The lust of the eyes can be for many things besides sex. You are avoiding the issue that Jesus said what comes out of a man's heart, not his physical body, is what defiles him.

    Understanding God’s election

    the Sabbath

    Neither Peter, James nor Paul said what you're saying. They witnessed that the law was an unbearable yoke and burden, and the pharisees who insisted that gentile Christians must get circumcised and keep the law were troubling them and subverting their souls. Do you seriously think they would...

    Some thought about "Jews"
