Your use of causal relationships between ideas is strange. Your rejection of Bible truth is sad. What good is the teaching of someone who has not received wisdom from God? They will only lead you into the pit. MATTHEW 15:14 14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind...

Let me repeat this to you. We who have come to know the one true God have only one Teacher, the Lord Jesus. No human being can teach us about the things of heaven, because all people are from the earth, not from heaven. The Lord Jesus alone came from heaven and descended to earth; therefore...

Huh? Who says "I believe that simply being here means I am already saved"? I certainly didn't. I think you're putting words in my mouth so you have an excuse to criticize me. The point is simply that you said you are 100% sure that you are saved. Whether you are here or not has nothing to do...

So do I, but it has no bearing on anyone's salvation. You said that you are 100% certain that you are already saved. Now you are saying that you are also asking God for mercy so that you may be saved. You seem to be neither hot nor cold. You are lukewarm before God, and therefore He will...

The Mark verses are the response of Jesus to James and John request a more privileged place in heaven than the other apostles. John and James asked that one of them sit at the Lord’s right hand and the other at His left. Even if they could drink what the Lord drank in order to be saved, it...

Mark 10:38-39 is not about being saved. We are told what Jesus said about being saved in John 3:16, which says that it is by believeing in Him: Everyone who believes in and reads the Holy Scriptures claims to believe in the Lord Jesus, because it is easy for anyone to say so. However, true...

Of course, I am not yet certain of my salvation. That is why I continue to ask the Lord God for mercy, because I believe in Mark 10:38–39. And your belief that simply being here means you are already saved is a deception from the enemy of God, which you have chosen to believe instead of...

John and James believed that they were already saved because they were among the apostles. However, the truth is that salvation was not easy, according to what the Lord Jesus told them. Even though they were among the apostles, since salvation was not something easily attained, they still had to...

Because a person’s clear understanding of God’s Word is based on its literal, physical sense, what is understood in John 20:29 regarding those who “have seen and believed” refers to those who physically saw the Lord Jesus while He was still physically present in the world, and therefore...

That is why they were asking for a position because, for the brothers James and John, they believed that they were already saved. But how could you ask for a position immediately if you had not yet made sure that you were saved? It is truly difficult to understand the Word of God if the...

So that passage is not about assurance of salvation, but about Jesus responding to James and John's request to sit on either side of Jesus in glory. Not the same thing at all. Is it still not clear to you that James and John believed they were already saved, which is why they were asking for a...

I don't see my understanding of John's words as contradicting what Mark wrote in Mark 10:38-39. The context of the Mark passage is provided by the 3 previous verses: You were the one who said that it was based only on your own understanding.

What is more dangerous and frightening is teaching the Word of God based only on human teachings or on your own understanding. NKJV 1Jn 5:13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to...

The scribes and Pharisees never admitted before the Lord Jesus that they were lying. They never openly acknowledged that they were in the wrong, even when Jesus confronted them.

You may not say it, but your actions show it. Actions speak louder than words.

That just is not so. John wrote: NKJV 1Jn 5:13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. Have you asked the Lord what this means? Or did you...

JOHN 20:29 29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. The understanding that people have regarding what we are discussing is limited to the literal and physical sense. However, what God is saying is...

We who have come to know the one true God do not force anyone to believe. All we can do is share the truth found in God’s Word. If you believe that what we are saying is wrong, that is your choice, and I respect that. Anyway, my only purpose is to reach God’s lost sheep. As for those who are...

Instead of sharing the truth, you are defending yourself. That is why that is all you can say.

I don't. This from the person who continually says, "We who have come to know the one true God..." and says that I and others don't know Him. Classic hypocrisy. Even from your own words, you are already doing it, yet afterward you deny it. We who have come to know the one true God avoid...
