    Jas 2:14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not [corresponding] works? can [his] faith save him? That is, can simply believing without corresponding works save them? And the answer is a resounding, NO. Rom 10:8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee...

    Not By Works

    My wife, who is an intercessor, is led to intercede for others in prayer, resulting in many answered prayers, and because of how she presents herself to others, they in return treat her differently and start acting favorably towards her, and if they ask, she then talks to others about her faith...

    The verse you use to verify your statement that the person who fell away was never truly saved, I believe you used it out of context. 1Jn 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is...

    That's not entirely accurate, saying, if you simply believe Jesus is lord and savior. According to Jesus, Paul, Peter, James, and John, a corresponding word is required. You can believe Jesus is you lord and savior all you want, it wont do you any good. If you don't act on that belief, then...

    What if a person is not led to "engage" in the work of God, would that matter? Which is more important, to be led by the Spirit or to go preach to the lost, because you believe you are suppose to?

    I would agree with you that the Father will cut off those who are in Christ if they do not produce good fruit, but I question your understanding of specifically, the kind of fruit one needs to produce for the kingdom of God. Does if have to do with going to church, giving to the poor, preaching...

    Where does the power of God come from for answered prayers, internally or x?

    Let's say you ask God for healing and you get it. Did the healing power of God come from within you or from out? What about if you were to command a spirit to come out of a person, and the thing leaves. Did the power of God drive the thing out from within you or from outside of you? Does it...

    My Best Explanation for the Trinity. Thoughts?

    I suppose that's okay for you, but if I wanted to know the truth of a subject, I both go to God asking Him to reveal the truth and compare scripture to both sides of the argument, putting my believes or doctrines on trial, so to speak. I do this, because the truths of God means more to me than...

    My Best Explanation for the Trinity. Thoughts?

    What is your understanding of a being vs. a person? I'm using the word person, as a whole, such as you are a person, and the word being, like that of an entity with its own thoughts and intents, yet a part of the whole. That is what I was shown. God is three beings in one person, even as there...

    My Best Explanation for the Trinity. Thoughts?

    I hate to say this, but whether you know it or not, you are contradicting yourself, while stating that you agree with the statement of the man teaching Modalism. You say you don't believe the same as the above quote, while stating the same thing. God is not into roll playing. I think, roll...

    My Best Explanation for the Trinity. Thoughts?

    That's not true. God showed me how He is three beings in and as one, and it's quite simple.

    How was the Holy Spirit involved in creation?

    Also, the "power of God" is not something like electricity, but a living being that is the power of God. I would think, if this power of God you speak of, is not a living being, then it would be incapable of grieving. Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto...

    How was the Holy Spirit involved in creation?

    I'm surprised no one touched this post. The Godhead is not called "Father" for nothing. Both He, and the word Father, connotes God is a male. And knowing that Jesus is God the "Son", it too implies He, being part of the makeup of God, is male as well. It would stand to reason that the Spirit of...

    How was the Holy Spirit involved in creation?

    That's a simple one. The holy spirit, which is the blood of Jesus, IS the word of God, and God sent that word when he spoke the worlds into existence. The word itself, or the offspring of the Holy Spirit, through the form of the words that were spoken, both created and upheld all things it was...

    My Best Explanation for the Trinity. Thoughts?

    That was such an eloquent explanation of the Trinity of God. Now would you care to back any of that up with scripture? I can show you scripturally how God is not three minds in one but three beings in one. Even as you are one being and I am another being. You also fail to recognize that God now...

    Future Sins Are Forgiven Verse

    Nowhere in scripture do you see future sins automatically forgiven after the New Birth, it is assumed they are automatically forgiven. It is very clear and scripture that sin causes sicknesses and diseases. If your sins, offenses where automatically forgiven, then there would be no sicknesses or...

    OSAS= House Built on Sand

    The Bible does not say that they had no oil in their lamps, which they took with them. They had oil in their lamps, what they did not have was an extra vessel for the oil like the five wise virgins had. So they had oil in their lamps but because the bridegroom tarried or because he took so long...

    Are children born saved?

    I also just got done showing or proving that without the law, sin is not imputed to the person. Children do not have an understanding of the consequences of breaking the laws of God or of committing sin. So children, in the eyes of God, have not sinned but are righteous souls. And if you would...

    Are children born saved?

    The reason why I left that verse out is because that one deals with physical death and not spiritual death. Romans 8: 2 talks about two different kinds of laws. 1 is has a physical consequence and the other has an eternal consequence. There is the law of sin which kills people physically, and...

    Are children born saved?

    There's nothing that indicates it's a parable either. in fact there's stronger evidence that it's an actual account rather than a parable because Jesus uses real people that existed such as Abraham. In all the parables, Jesus never used any names of people like he did with the story of the rich...
