Edicts and Councils 1. Initiated in 303 AD by Emperor Diocletian, this was the last and most severe official persecution of Christians in the Roman Empire, aiming to eradicate the rapidly growing Christian faith. Edicts mandated the destruction of churches and scriptures, the arrest and torture...

1 Cor 3: 16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? What this verse is clearly stating is that when Jesus Christ baptizes you in the name of the Holy Spirit, you receive this portal into your being through which both Father and Son can enter. Eph...

In Col 1: 24-29 Paul describes a mystery that was hidden from ages and from generations. Apparently it is still a mystery for many people on this thread. Paul tells us what the mystery is. It is Christ in us, the hope of glory. God's glory is His Holy Spirit which in Isaiah 63: 9-10 is described...

The question is: Is the person truely once saved?

1 John 4: 18 There is no fear in love, but perfect love casteth out fear, because fear hath punishment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 2 Tim 1: 7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Phil 4: 6-7 Be anxious for nothing, but...

I didn't mean that kind of alone. I'm given the key that unlocks the door to understanding, and no one is paying attention. I'm hoping that someone on this thread will read my post #92 and check out all the scriptures I included.

Hi Mikael. I am one of those who feel alone and voice is not heard, yet know I have a message that is genuine and universal for all. My message: God has always existed, is everywhere at once, transcends time, has a mind, heart and will, can create out of nothing, and knows everything about...

What change and the change came before what? Luke 3: 2. the word of God came unto John. The word of God is not referring to Jesus, but the actual words of God which He spoke by filling John with His Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is referred to as the angel of His presence in Isaiah 63: 9-10...

He questioned their sincerity and that there would be no change in them. That's the definition of repentance, a change of mind and heart that leads to a change of action or direction.

That is a silly question. Where in the Bible does it say that you have to breathe in order to survive? A person who repents is in sorrow because of the sins he has committed and turns to God for forgiveness. A repentant person is in a state of remorse. I know, where in the Bible does it say that.

Did I miss the scripture that shows “being baptized is Boasting”? Either for it or against it? Because i didn’t see one. According to John the Baptist, it is Jesus who will baptize, not with water like he was, but with the Holy Spirit. According to the great commision, we baptize in the...

John's baptism was a baptism of repentance. People being baptized expressed remorse for their sins and called out their sins outloud asking for forgiveness in order to get spiritually clean. Their's is not changing from a state of unbelief to a state of belief or faith.

Repentance is a state of being. When God grants (gives) repentance, you are in that state of being. You can't work towards repentance. All works of repentance are because of it, not to get to it.

Hi 2ndTime. I admire that you are a woman who is true to herself and I agree with you on marriage. Many people get married for the wrong reasons. My ex wanted to get away from her domineering parents and I just wanted a family and the sex that came with marriage was the cherry on the top. I...

Probably, but their focus while masturbating was someone that they came in contact with, not someone that they couldn't possibly ever come in contact with. That is why Jesus said that lusting after a woman has committed adultery in his heart. One of the Ten Commandments states that you cannot...
