JIM you are more than welcome to believe aa lie if you so choose. Personally, I will elect to trust in Christ's own words that state a man is justified by faith. I will trust in Pauls words that say a man is justified by faith. I will trust in more than 15 other verses that say a man is...
When I was a child, every year brought the endless wait for Thanksgiving and Christmas, when our whole family would come together at Grandma and Grandpa's home to celebrate the Holidays. In between, there was not a whole lot of interaction between us; as we all seemed a more "distant," sort of...
Right. I did see it drifted into the realm of serious convo in spots though. Not a judgment mind you, just an observation. Kinda sobering when one is looking for humor and hears about the passing of beloved pets/family
I am sorry brother but I have no desire to continue ongoing contention over these matters. I praise God for your courage, boldness and faith even if I do not agree with the basis of your argument.
I will concede that in light of how this was presented, it does give room to misinterpret what I was stating. I was in fact, making two separate case points. 1) That your verse in John was not being taken in context. 2) That I was using Christ's words out of another gospel to illustrate the idea...
I agree with your general concept here Pizza, but I would offer a different perspective. Keep in mind the story of Job; how Satan approached God and needed permission to attack Job, his family, his home, his livestock, and his possessions. While i don't believe it is "God's will," directly for...
Also I would add a quote from my original post to begin with:
This clearly exhorts the benefits and command to be obedient, and promotes the idea of works as justifying our faith though not salvation. I do not discount works; I merely assert that according to the Word of God, according to...
Pizza, I would ask that all admin and mods be brought into the thread "Salvation: Prerequisites for Grace?" As there seems to be contention and misconception presented. It seems that Brother Jim is driven by a spirit of contention and anger; choosing to misrepresent scripture and is consistently...
1) I quoted your post Brother, which credited that verse as being out of John's gospel..LOL! If it is indeed not there than you would do well not to place it as reference if that is truly the case..nowhere did I assert it to be found there. Indeed Christ asked this question which I referenced...
WIP well said, and I appreciate your redirection...yet at what point does one allow another believer to completely disregard the blood of Jesus and the grace bought with His life? It is one thing to take liberty and accuse others of "calling James and Jesus a liar," when none of that was stated...
Agreed. Seeing this alone has steeled my resolve to be committed to the ministry i launched to combat Satan's tools and tactics contributing to backsliding. Anywhere I can hit him where it hurts I plan on doing just that.
1 Samuel 17:34-37(NIV)
34 But David said to Saul, “Your servant has been...
Regardless what Father would determine to do; rest assured this little girl is beloved and precious in His sight. Perhaps he will birth an amazing testimony of her healing and deliverance; to be used for years to come to inspire and encourage others...to bring the hurting to Christ. Perhaps He...
Right. I usually don't forward the facebook share/posts but I could not help but be moved by this one. Things like this make me wanna grab Satan by the neck and shake him something fierce. (Not that this is feasible, but I still want to.)
This 4 year old girl named Hayden is suffering from leukemia and in critical condition. She can barely make sound with her lips as she sings, "Yes Jesus loves me..." Let us set aside that which is besetting us for just a moment and come together in prayer for the precious child.
LOL IKR?? Most non-Christians think we are crazy believing in Jesus too...the Pharisees thought He was crazy for teaching what He taught...many in the disciples' time thought the disciples were crazy for being dedicated to the point of death. Ironically I think Christianity requires a certain...
