Luke 18:8I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?†How bad is it now to find faith? The Lord's cryptic message is a telltale sign of when we are in the latter days when the times of the Gentiles is coming...

Another thing that is wrong in the NIV is the use of the word "commit". Commit does not always mean "I will" as in making a religious commitment. Commit as used in the Hebrew term means to "roll away", thus the burden of what is being committed is being entrusted to another, thus declaring...

Westcott's father was of the Ghost's Guild: a scientific society dedicated to the study of the paranormal. How much influence that his father had over him can be seen in how Westcott had translated Romans 8:26-27 in error. Romans 8:²⁶ In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our...

I agree but even with sinning brothers, we are to lean on Jesus Christ for guidance, trusting Him to direct our footsteps away from such situations that may be to our detriment, but reach out in Christ's love, He shall enable us to do so. Galatians 6:1Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a...

If God would judge us by our wicked imaginations: how would He spare those that are His for playing somebody else's wicked imagination and be entertained by it? Matthew 6:22The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. 23But if...

Why did God flood the world? Genesis 6:5And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. 7And the LORD...

In regards to fellowship in the church. If the brother or sister do not repent, then they are to be excommunicated so that they may repent. Once they do repent, they are allowed back in to have fellowship. In regards to personal relationships outside the church: we have to keep in mind...

It is by believing in Jesus Christ is how one is saved. The fact that the sinner is believing is a work of God, Himself. John 6:44No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. John 3:18He that believeth on him is not...

Re: Hi, Just think.. of Anti/Christ. Against God, Christ & Their Eternal Unchanging W Antichrist as defined as "against Christ" is not being applied that way in the Bible. Antichrist as applied in the Bible means "instead of Christ". 1 John 2:18Little children, it is the last time: and as...

No. Samuel was His believer under the Old Covenant in representing the God of Israel by. Now that the New Covenant has come, His believers, both Gentiles and Jews, are representing God through the Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.

The point of references was that God has judged the Amalekites by the same intent of what the Amalekites had sought, irregardless of the infants. I suppose one could be spared and raised in an Israelite community but to what end? There would always be a chance that he or she would not be...

The true witness of the Holy Spirit is given by the scripture. John 16:13Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. 14He shall...

It has been reproved. Citing semantics and being non-applicable are your deflections. That is the patented rationalization handed down: I am aware of it. When one has been raised on a creed: then like me: I will fail to see that the church, and those I have trusted around me to know...

I disagree with your pastor, Eric. Especially when you started the OP like this: I would strongly suggest you go to the scripture as kept by those that loved Him and His words in the King James Bible to learn of Jesus Christ. John 5:39Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have...

John 14:16And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. Now by...

We have a poster in the forum that believes in the distinction of the faith OF Christ as meaning different from the faith IN Christ as implying reference solely to Christ's faith and not the faith of believers in Christ. So does that mean that there is no one faith either? Now in regards to...

Jesus never testified that the Spirit would do that and neither did John the Baptist. This is reading inbetween the lines to infer that the Holy Spirit acts on His own accord, thus removing all distinction from other spirits in the world as they seek after them and after a sign of receiving...

Believers were warned not to believe every spirit but test them: that means you cannot even take the so called millions of testimonies that declares that one can receive the Holy Spirit again especially when there are different results and signs coming from it: and not just tongues that comes...

Moving to present day: Jesus as the Son of God does not allow His followers to return evil for evil and that includes genocide. Matthew 5:38Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: 39But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall...

Apply the previous verse for the reason why: 1 Samuel 15:2Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt. Seems to me that Amalek was planning a little genocide of their own. Otherwise: the promise...
