Yes, women can minister in their own role as a woman, but there are certain restrictions that God has placed on them. Going strictly by what the scriptures say, 1) women can teach children as Eunice and Lois taught young Timothy from the time he was a child. 2) women can teach other women as...

I agree with most of What you say. However, the HolY Spirit spoke the words in verseS 14 and 15 and God has never based his laws on what CULTURE dictates or what culture decides is right or wrong. Our culture says that homosexuality is acceptable to God but God’s word says it is not. Our...

I don’t think Paul or the Holy Spirit ever viewed women as “a necessary evil”. They simply serve in a different capacity from men. Just as a servant of Christ is no less in value than a pastor; but the pastor (elder) has responsibilities and a work that the average Christian does not have...

I agree. Christ is NOT saying that His church is going to be built on Peter. He is saying that His church is built on Peter’s confession that “Jesus is “the Son of God.” So the ”Rock” is referring to Jesus and His divinity.

Jesus said, “I will build MY church…” in Matthew 16:18. It belongs to Him. It is HIS church. He is the HEAD of His church—not some man, board, council, convention, or other organization. Eph. 5:23, Col. 1:18. Jesus claims to have ALL AUTHORITY both in heaven and ON EARTH. Matt. 28:18. No...

I think the scriptures can answer this for us if we will just believe and accept what they say. I, too, believe that baptism is a WORK OF GOD; because that is what the Holy Spirit tells me in Colossians 2:12. “ …buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in...

Can one just believe and not repent and be saved? Is repentance not necessary to salvation? Do the verses on faith, that do not mention repentance, then exclude repentance as necessary for salvation? If all of the verses on faith, in John and other books, that do not mention baptism, if...

Yes, I agree with denominational doctrine—baptism IS a work. Baptism is a work of FAITH - Acts 8:36-37 The eunuch said, “ Here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?” Phillip answered, “If you BELIEVE, you may..” Jesus said, “He that BELIEVES and is BAPTIZED shall be...

Do not underestimate the power of Satan. He does not want us to read God’s word. He will definitely try to influence you not to read the Bible. . But God tells us to resist Satan and “draw near to Him”. James 4:7-8 Romans 10:17 tells us that “FAITH” comes by hearing the word of God. Build...

Romans 10:17 says that FAITH comes by hearing the word of God. If you are spiritually weak, the only way to become stronger is to spend time in the Bible. The more you read and study the Bible, the more you WANT to ready and study. You can get “built up” on the word of God. Reading the Bible...

God, in times PAST, spoke to people in various ways—DIRECTLY, as He did to many people and prophets in the Old Testament; and to Peter, Paul, and others in the New Testament. In the first century, no one had the word of God “written down.” It was necessary for God to communicate to people in...

The apostle Peter says in Acts 1:16, “THE HOLY SPIRIT SPOKE before by the mouth of David concerning Judas…”. Then Peter quotes Psalm 109. David may have recorded it but the words were from the Holy Spirit. The apostle Paul in Acts 28:25 quotes the book of Isaiah and says, “THE HOLY SPIRIT...

Those commandments given at Mount Sinai do NOT exist anymore as far as being bound on us. However ALL of them—except one—are given in The New Law of Faith of Jesus Christ. I do not steal—not because of some Jewish law given on Mt. Sinai—but because Jesus Christ tells me not to in Eph. 2:28. I...

If I wrongly accused you of something you do not believe , I apologize. I included you because of something I read on one of your posts, but sorry, I don’t remember which one and have not been able to find it. I believe and accept your statement and my apology is sincere.

Not only do all religions NOT lead to God—all DENOMINATIONS. do not lead to God, either. Matthew 15:13- “Every plant that my Heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots.”

When God said,”THEY shall not touch any holy thing lest they die,” who are the “THEY”. that He is talking about? To whom is this command given? It is given to the JEWISH PRIESTS—the sons of Kohath in Numbers 4:15. That’s who He is speaking to at this time. This verse has nothing to do with...

If gentiles could not touch the Ark, then why didn’t God kill the Philistines who carried it about for 3 months from city to city, placed it on a cart and looked into it? How did THEY escape death? Why were THEY not killed? I am agreeing with you that the Jews could not touch it—because God...

When you say “No one could touch the ark of God”, are you including gentiles from other nations in that ? Because the story in 1 Samuel of the Philistines capturing the ark. prove that only the Jews were not allowed to touch it, because the command not to touch it or look into it was only to...

So where is the SCRIPTURE that says the 10 commandments were for ALL NATIONS but the covenant was only for the Jews? Or where is the scripture that says the covenant was fir the whole world? How do you know that, if GOd did not say so? And He didn’t. Now you have confused me—- because aren’t...
