    Who is Jesus?

    What do you think then of Psalm 2:7, Acts 13:33, Hebrews 1:5 and 5:5? All say that God "begat" Jesus "this day". The word "begat" indicates that He had a beginning, and "this day" implies creation for a "day" is a measure of time and a part of creation.

    Matthew 6:14-15

    It would be wise to make a difference to sins committed BEFORE your conversion and sins committed AFTER. Sins before conversion are forgiven ON CONDITION that you believe in, and confess Jesus Christ. This averts damnation. Sins after conversion are forgiven ON CONDITION that you uphold the...

    Matthew 6:14-15

    The Book of Matthew does not address salvation from ones sin ans sins. It is a Book on the Kingdom. And for the Kingdom, works are required, the overall work being OBEDIENCE (7:21). Even in John 3:3-5, where the fundamental qualification for the Kingdom is taught, rebirth is by FAITH (vs.3...

    The Bible

    "They" have been trying to change the Bible since Moses began to write it. What they underestimated was what the Bible says about it. "And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth...

    Who is Jesus?

    Jesus is the Name given to a Man. Matthew 1:21–25 reveals TWO things; Jesus is the Name of the Seed of the woman, promised in Genesis 3:14-15. According to Genesis 1:11-12, the immutable Law of "KINDS", our Lord Jesus must be 100% man. Any living creature with seed can only produce its own...

    In the beginning

    I suppose you could call it that. But Lucifer most probably does not have the power to cover all the earth in water. That is the domain of the Creator. "Theory?" Certainly. But, what do you think of the evidence?

    In the beginning

    Yes, all those years ago, when it was shown to me, I rejoiced. If you are really interested in all this I can recommend a book by G. H. Pember, called; "Earth's Earliest Ages". It is probably out of print, but you might get lucky at Schoettles Publications in the USA...

    In the beginning

    Here's the evidence; Genesis 1:1 is a complete stand-alone sentence in the Hebrew. The word "creation" ("bara" - Heb.) is not used again until God made the living creatures. The rest of Genesis 1 uses the word "asah" which means "to build or make out of existing materials". That means, except...

    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

    I'm personally glad that slavery has somewhat been abandoned (it is alive and well in many countries). And I value my status as a free man. So don't get me wrong when I report that the Bible regulates slavery - not abolishes it. Under Law the release of slaves was only on the fiftieth years -...

    Amen - and added to this, was the name of Jesus ever mentioned at his inauguration?

    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

    I think we have just discovered how far apart we are. I find only Christians or non Christians in the New Testament. And ALL are to be about building the Church and not a political state. 1st Corinthians 3:9–16; 9 "For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s...

    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

    Aaahhh. Civil Law. But did not Mr. King teach Civil RIGHTS? But no matter. I'm glad to her that Mr. King taught, "turn the other cheek". And that he taught his fellows that it was blessed to be persecuted and downtrodden ... or? Nebertheless, I respect your view.

    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

    That's accepted. But have you got time to show the scriptures on civil rights in the New Testament so we can establish what is truth and match it to Mr. King's speaking? Thanks, and no hurry.

    I agree with you without reserve.

    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

    You have a seemingly good argument, and I respect it. My counter would be to say that there is a huge difference between the Old Testament and the New. In the Old Testament we had a Nation with fixed borders. This Nation was a political entity among other political entities. WITHIN Israel...

    Ya say ya want some evilution

    The bottom line, I think, is that science actually supports creationism. But men don't want it to be so. God accuses men, not of superstition, that is, believing nonsense. He accuses them of "HOLDING the truth in UNRIGHTEOUSNESS" (Rom.1:18). That is, they have the truth, and hold it, but tell...

    Amen. All agreed.

    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

    I'm glad this Forum is moderated, and you brothers do a great work. I'll abide by your decision whichever way you go. But here we have a great opportunity to discuss, not racialism, but whether a Christian should involve him/herself in the politics, management and government of this world before...

    Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

    Your lady friend would be shocked to read about President Trump in Daniel 4:17; 17 "This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he...

    You learn a lot from the Cults and false religions .

    Quite. The sickness is the same because the germ is the same. In parable, a garment, or "covering", if we interpret scripture with scripture, is one's works (e.g. Rev.19:7-8). The first effect of eting from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil was a perception of "nakedness". So Adam and Eve...
