Hello again Mem, that is one of the BIG questions that the church simply cannot answer. The church (all of it) holds that Adam and Eve were neither inclined towards sin (like we are) nor towards righteousness (like God is) when He created them, that their wills were w/o bias so to speak (or...

Hmmm, but wouldn't being made in God's image also mean that Adam's heart/mind/will were NOT corrupt when God created him :unsure: As far as the rest goes, I think that I'll join @oyster67 and ask you to elaborate a bit more, because some of what you just said is confusing to me, and I'd like to...

Hello again Katelyn (@katelyn_nz), thank you for explaining what it was that you went through. I agree with @Gideon300's assessment above. I would further recommend that you go to see you pastor and tell him everything that you just told us (for his help and counsel, and so that he will know how...

Hi Mem, this is just a thought, but wouldn't "the other way around" lay the blame for Adam's moral corruption, evil and sin (as well ours) directly at God's feet, since "the other way around" would have to mean that God made him that way :unsure: As are mine (unless I'm not thinking clearly...

Hello Katelyn, I'm interested, 1. what is "carnival", and 2. why do you think that it had such a profoundly negative effect on your spiritual life and walk/on your relationship with God and His church, and on your response to His word :unsure: Thanks! Praying for you!! ~Deuteronomy p.s. - I'm...

Hello Jupiter (@Cosmicgyal), welcome to CChat! We're glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us (and thank you for sharing a little bit about yourself with us as well) :) God bless you!! ~Deuteronomy p.s. - one last thing (especially because you are a new believer), it is...

Hello @Leih, welcome to CChat! I'm glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us :) Thank you for telling us a little bit about yourself too, especially the part about how the Lord is working so powerfully in your life right now :giggle: As for the persecution that you are...

Hello @DonnaL, welcome to CChat! We're glad that you found us and joined in the discussions with us :) God bless you!! ~Deuteronomy 1 Thessalonians 5 23 May the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without...

Hello @Banjer51, I'm fairly certain that this is not what you are after, but I'll include it here anyway, just in case. 1 Corinthians 5 5 I have decided to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 1...

Hello again @paul67, I thought that I should also say, welcome to CChat! (seeing that this is the Intro Board) We're glad that you found us and decided to join in the discussions with us :) God bless you!! (Numbers 6:24-26) ~Deuteronomy

Hello Paul (@paul67), I'm VERY sorry to hear about all of the things that you are going through right now. I am praying for you. Also, please remember that we have a Prayer Wall here at CChat that you can use whenever/as often as you'd like to (to inform us of your new and/or ongoing prayer...

Hello Sister (@ketura), I am very sorry to hear about the weakness and disability (and I am assuming pain as well) that you are experiencing right now (your doctor(s) know about it, yes?). Praying for you............. ~Deuteronomy

Hello AnotherTheory, I apologize for the slow reply, but timely is (unfortunately) not always possible for me. Before I reply to what you just said, I have a question for you, are you considering embracing the Christian faith as your own, or are you here for a different reason :unsure: If it is...

Hello anothertheory, as others have already noted, if our sins can be forgiven simply by repenting of them, then why the Incarnation, and why the Cross :unsure: For that matter, why would God the Father send His only begotten Son (the Lord Jesus Christ), the Being who He loves more than any...

This is referred to as the high, priestly prayer of Jesus. John 17 1 Jesus spoke these things; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, He said, “Father, the hour has come; glorify Your Son, that the Son may glorify You, 2 even as You gave Him authority over all flesh...

Hello again Seed_Time_Harvest, the short answer is no, I do not believe that someone who has truly been regenerated, justified and saved by God can lose their salvation .. e.g. John 5:24, whether in this life, or in the eternity to come. This includes the sin of failing to confess our sins (for...

Hello Seed_Time_Harvest, I don't think that can be true, since the elder Apostle John directs his 1st Epistle (incl 1 John 1:9) to Christians specifically, to those, in fact, at all levels of maturity in the faith, INCLUDING himself (IOW, he includes himself in the mix with the rest of...
