    Not By Works

    Just talking this out, something to think about. Genesis 3:7 "And the eyes of Adam and Eve were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons." Adam and Even knew to cover themselves. They did so with fig leaves. What are today's...

    Jesus say: to be save you have to do good

    Sorry to be so long. I don't believe the Lampstand is a church. I believe the light (Candle) is the church. The lampstand would be a holder for the church. I do not know exactly what removing the lampstand equates to. But it is clearly a punishment. Perhaps you are correct about the church...

    Why was not working on a certain day so important?

    What do you think of this? Friday is a day of preparation, so that no work need be done on the Sabbath. Set aside the Sabbath; it is an appointment with God. Are you going to miss it? 1 John 5:3 "For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not...

    Jesus say: to be save you have to do good

    Jesus say: to be save you have to do good

    If you love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind, do you not wish to please him by following his commands? We are saved through Grace, because we are totally unworthy of, and incapable of living in a way that earns our right to His kingdom. Mercy (not...

    What do you believe and why do you believe it?

    Do some study. Studying is the way to learn about God. It's an amazing book. It is shallow enough a child can wade in, yet so deep it can completely submerge an elephant. From 100,000 foot view it is divided into two parts. The story of a nation, and the story of a Man. The logic of...

    global warming will destroy the Earth

    If you read the data (and there is a lot of it), it is very difficult to separate the science from the politics. If you can separate the science, you notice a wide margin of error in the conclusions. Now when one projects out into the future, the margins of error increase as the timeline gets...
