    Not everyone who says to me Lord, Lord

    Comparative verse, fakes who were doing their own thing expecting to be saved, and somebody with do-nothing faith who says it but doesn't really believe it enough to follow. No, I don't think Christ is talking about maintaining a sinless life after belief, so much as it is an honest effort to...

    Assassination attemp against Donald Trump

    Another thought, where is the Deuteronomy 22:5 crowd on this? A woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment; for whosoever doeth these things is an abomination unto Jehovah thy God. Yes, I know clothes aren't really the point of this...

    Loss of salvation???

    it's sad and scary when Christians begin to drift, pray for those who need to correct their course before they're hearts are made hard and cease to believe.

    sermon on the mount

    sermon on the mount

    well, yeah most of them seem to be, but I'm assuming he's using it as a figure of speech to demonstrate that no one really is truly righteous enough, jewish audience and all.

    sermon on the mount

    We're going over it again, so I though I'd read ahead this time something stuck with me that hasnt before. 17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not...

    Pentecostal view of the holy spirit.

    Been doing some reading lately on the whole tongues thing. Coming from a baptist background much of this philosophy is new to me, hopefully actual Pentecostals will reply. As I understand it most mainstream Pentecostals seem to believe there's two forms of the holy spirit. One that occurs at...

    Stumbling Block or Offended.

    thanks. those translations help, it does sort of imply some level of deliberateness on behalf of the causer, and some sort of pre-exisiting weakness on the stumblee.

    Stumbling Block or Offended.

    It's recently been on my mind the subject of what constitutes stumbling blocks in the bible. From going through what I could find, it seems to be referring primarily to two things, either causing someone else to sin, or trying to get someone else to violate their conscience. Would I be correct...

    He that believes and is not water baptised is saved

    Sort of like if I explain what a ham radio operator is and I say " A ham is someone who gets a ham radio license and calls CQ, but if they don't get a license they're nothing but CBers. Technically you don't have to actually use a radio to be considered a legal ham, but virtually all of them...

    Deuteronomy 22:5 month

    So it's that homosexual month and despite my efforts to ignore it, one got into my facebook feed. It was a photo of what I'm guessing was intended as a wedding gag, it showed a woman in suit and a man in a wedding dress. Being a reactionary I posted a comment, noting a lot of complaints...

    One Baptism

    more water baptism debate, while I'm not dumb enough to risk being wrong personally, I don't think it's a no exceptions policy, much of the writings about water baptism seem to go on the premise that water is available, the ethopian eunich for example. I don't think death bed cases are in any...
