Because we will not need the gifts of the Spirit that operate in the assembly like tongues, and prophesy in our perfect state of full knowledge. Today we sometimes need a confirmation or exhortation, edification, edification that comes from these gifts, but then we will have graduated to a more...

The rule of hermeneutics of the immediate context speaks of "that which is perfect" is when he sees face to face. 12For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. So taking this into consideration the author is...

Just jumping into the conversation here to make an observation: Though one may have an opinion based on their understanding of church history (whether that view is accurate should be determined based on a thorough study of all church history sources) that the gifts of the Holy Spirit faded from...

First let's address the idea that dressing in a classic style (suits or jackets and ties) is appropriate for church. I think it is, but not because of a religious reason or "church rule". It simply communicates "responsible, leadership, serious," and of course it looks better. Dress styles are...

OK. I hope it is successful. I am looking forward to seeing what he has come up with.

You will probably need some local Christian friends to help you. if you don't have a local church consider going to one tomorrow and asking the pastor for guidance. Maybe that will start a journey for you that will be what you needed. It's hard to advise over a chat forum without knowing many...

LOL. Yes, Just kidding. I haven't been here in a while. I got a message from Robo about a new CC App coming to Android on Labor Day.

You alright?

When you read all of the passages on the day of the Lord you will often see mention of the rescue and salvation of the righteous included in the passage. Theologically the subject of the Day of the Lord always includes the salvation of the righteous while the wicked suffer judgment and the...

1God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 3Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of...

You seem sincere in your questions. I would guess that your brothers and sisters that like Joyce Meyers teachings do not think that you are saved by works but that one is blessed by obedience to the Word, after salvation. Such as the spiritual growth we will experience all of our POST...

Someone may have already posted this but I see it as the Law and the Prophets which God used to speak to the fathers in times past but in these last days has spoken to us by His Son. Heb 1:1. When Peter asked to build three tabernacles the Voice from heaven said "This is my Son, HEAR HIM"...

The Cloud of Glory would suggest that these were THE Moses and Elijah and not just some ordinary people with the same name. Since the author did not explain to the readers how Peter knew, then it would fall upon the reader to assume the most natural reasoning. One that the author would...

Peter heard them discussing Jesus death and departure at Jerusalem This conversation probably contained enough details for Peter to draw conclusions such as he probably heard Jesus refer to each of them by name once or more during their conversation.

Are there any women reading this thread who feel called to fulltime ministry in the areas of evangelist, pastor, teacher, etc? If so please don't be discouraged. The Assemblies of God welcomes women in ministry and provides world wide opportunities for training, education, and credentialing...

I understood who you were responding to. :)

It could be that there were women at Ephesus being deceived by false teachers who were leading them with sensational teachings that they were trying to spread and their husbands whom God would use to correct them and warn them were being dismissed by these wives who thought they had a superior...

Thanks for the Welcome. And thanks for expressing an intellectually honest view of these passages. Good teachers must give students the opportunity to apply rules of hermeneutics to these passages as all others even if their conclusions contradict denominational dogma.
