    Since all wrongdoing is sin (1 John 5:17), is it a sin to do evil of any kind?

    Are believers sealed with the Holy Spirit forever?

    I'm just looking for some clarification. Are believers sealed with the Holy Spirit forever? Ephesians 4:30 in the King James Version reads, 30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Is there some future point where believers are no longer...

    Question about the way the Bible is seperated into verses

    Do you think the Bible would be easier to understand if it wasn't separated into verses? I just had a conversation with my Dad who is a Catholic and was trying to explain to him what he's missing when he tries to argue that you need the Catholic sacraments to be saved (this didn't go well, but...

    Biblical proof to put my mind to ease regarding blasphemy of the Holy Spirit?

    So I have schizophrenia and during one of my episodes I said something blasphemous towards what I thought was the Holy Spirit. It was very real to me and it is also very hard to explain. My concern is that it might be possible that I've committed an unpardonable sin. That fear and concern is...

    Can Satan manipulate matter?

    I'm just curious if anyone could shed some light on this question. Many people are convinced that the Earth is billions of years old and that all current life is a product of evolution through natural selection. In order to come to these conclusions people cite evidence that they observe in...

    I have two Bible questions

    I have two questions. My first question is if I spoke against the Holy Spirit and committed the unpardonable sin.

    Is Romans 10:9 meant to be taken at face value?

    If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. ~ Romans 10:9 Is this meant to be as simple as it reads? Not trying to come at this in a different way myself or anything like that - just asking if this verse simply...

    How to get an apartment without references?

    Does anyone have tips on how to get an apartment when you've never rented from someone outside of your family? I'm being told that I should just lie about it and give them the number of someone I know. No one seems to really understand me when I say that I can't because that would be lying...

    Do we have to love our parents?

    First of all I love my father. This thread has nothing to do with him. This is about my mother, who as far as I can see is a narcissistic alcoholic. She has done so many bad things the past 12 years that I wouldn't be able to remember them all. The worst thing she has done though is drinking...

    1 John 4:2 - Testing Spirits

    This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God ~ 1 John 4:2 This passage is very important to me because as someone who suffers from schizophrenia I have actually witnessed a spirit verbally acknowledge that...

    Soul sleep - for and against?

    I know this is a debated topic, and I would like to see the scripture that is for and against this idea. The reason I'm interested is because I've learned a lot through a ministry named Amazing Facts and as they teach it, soul sleep is reality. Everyone else seems to disagree, I would just like...
