    What exactly does Revelation 14 teach?

    Revelation 14:14-20 is a description of God's judgement and wrath. Back in verse 7 we are told to fear God and give Him glory for the hour of His judgement has come. Verses 12-13 give a word of encouragement to the tribulation saints, then verse 14 continues the theme of God's wrath. I don't see...

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    We have free will to choose. We often choose wrong and that's where evil comes in. He intends us to learn from our mistakes. Let's follow your reasoning and apply it elsewhere. Why would any parent let their child learn to walk? We all know that that child will fall before he learns, right? That...

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    My understanding is that we are all lost sinners. Some of us have a savior. The true son will always return to the father. For His sheep hear His voice and follow Him. John 10:27

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    Salvation is not being addressed in Heb 6. If you would continue to read in v9 the author says he is speaking of things that accompany salvation. Rewards are at stake, not salvation.

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    Maybe the difference is that you knew it was wrong. I think the real problem is when we don't see our sin as sin.

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    You'd have made it to heaven. Once a son, always a son. The prodigal son left The Fathers house to live it up, realized he wasn't where he belonged and came home. So did you.

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    No believer can become an unbeliever. It may appear this way to our human eyes, but God searches our heart. Only He knows our true condition. That person you speak of wasn't saved in the first place or is in a temporary backslid-in state.

    [__ Prayer __] Please pray for me

    Brandon, you've got some good advice here.I'll just add that prayer is the best way to deepen your faith and relationship with our Lord Jesus. Tell Him what is on your mind. Tell Him where you've failed and ask Him for help where you need it. He already knows but He wants to hear it from you...

    Proving pre-trib rapture is false, along with a question.

    Mathew 16:13-20 tells us that Peter knew Jesus as the son of the living God through the power of the Holy Spirit.

    Proving pre-trib rapture is false, along with a question.

    Seven trumpets have a special meaning for Israel. A single trumpet was blown on the wilderness march to gather the princes unto thee. Num 10:4. This single trumpet corresponds to the last trump of 1 Cor 15. The same trump of God in 1 Thes 4:16. The shout is the voice of our Lord Jesus. His...

    Proving pre-trib rapture is false, along with a question.

    There are people being saved during the great tribulation. Whoever did not receive the mark of the beast in chapter 13 couldn't buy or sell. They would probably starve to death. Whoever received the mark brings down the wrath of God upon themselves. All these saints can do is wait for the coming...

    Proving pre-trib rapture is false, along with a question.

    The rapture and the second coming of Christ are 2 different events. At the rapture we are called to meet Christ in the air. 1 Thessalonians 4:17. At the second coming, Christ will touch down on the Mount of Olives. Zechariah 14:4. I believe the rapture of the church is at Revelation 4. The...

    We're not "Pod People"

    It's actually the opposite. The Christian realizes he is lost and needs a savior while the non Christian thinks he can save himself.

    How Long Does it Take to Read the Bible?

    It's a life long journey. It was told to me there are to ways to study the bible. First, with a telescope to get an idea of the whole. Then, get into it with a microscope.

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    It is my view that those are them that believed in vain. They were never really sons. They may have thought they were. The may have acted like it for some time, but they were not saved. That is why they could not enter the kingdom.

    Is the person that believed in vain is saved?

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    So those that have good works will reign with Christ and those that believe will just be hanging around. Is that your view? What about those who practice the lusts of the flesh. Where are they?

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    Non of those verses speak of being on the sidelines. we either inherit the kingdom or we don't. Peter is warning in 2 Peter 2:1 that false teachers had secretly introduced heresies and that many would follow them. They were never believers.

    Abel's sacrifice was acceptable because he offered it in faith.
