    Why was Cain's offering rejected by God?

    Here is what I posted: Finally, I believe this passage of the LORDS respect for Abel's offer, implies: That with divine approval, God shot fire from heaven onto Abel's offering. Also see Lev 9:23-24, 1 Kings 18:22-38, 1 Chron 21:26, 2 Chron 7:1) I said ""I believe"" ""it implies"" & then gave...

    Why was Cain's offering rejected by God?

    Genesis 3:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them. (NOTE: Shortly after Adam & Eve sin. God made coats of skins to clothe/cover their sin. I believe we see here the first instance of the blood of the innocent paying for the sin of the guilty)...

    Justification

    Hi Tim, A different perspective on the sower parable John 12:32 Jesus said, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. (NOTE: We know Jesus was lifted up on the cross. Christ the sower, said he, will draw ALL men. Unfortunately NOT All men will believe) Mark 1:8 I indeed...

    Repentance - Righteousness - Faith - Salvation

    it's unfortunate that people invariably tie the word REPENTANCE to sin. There are many OT verses where a SINLESS God repents. Gen 6:6-7, Deut 32:36, Jud 2:18, 1 Sam 15:11 & 29 to name a few. The baptism of repentance preached by John the Baptist. Is 100% to/for the Nation of Israel. ZERO...

    Are there two gospels or ONE?

    The question I replied to, in the OP, was: Is the gospel of the kingdom different from the gospel of grace Paul preached? My reply clearly points out the differences. Your reply has the facts backwards. Paul, tutored the other apostles to the RISEN Christ's message that now included gentiles...

    What does Jesus's 40 days of fasting mean to you and your life?

    As a general rule 40 refers to testing. There were many mandatory rules for fasting under the law. I have found no fasting requirements/demands given to the Church/Body of Christ. That's not to say that, I believe, fasting has no positive benefits. I believe God rewards any sacrificial...
