    Eternal Security of the Believer !

    Then why all warnings about "falling away" or perishing... I suppose those words don't mean what they mean or they were translated wrong... The bible teaches the keeping power of God coupled with the responsibility of man... You read my blog? I've never questioned God's love and enjoy it...

    Eternal Security of the Believer !

    Anybody who argues either side of this topic is only reading the half of the bible they want to support their ideal, not what the bible says orchestratively about this topic. There is a dichotomy concerning the dynamics behind what either argument is based upon that are together in scripture...

    To Preach or Not To Preach

    So you're love for one another extends to Leonard Sweet does it? And Frank? Don't you think that it is judgmental to castigate two brothers because you don't agree? Where is the respect for the opinion of others?

    To Preach or Not To Preach

    Is Mumford the devil and incapable of saying something that is true? I quote Joseph Stalin and Hegel, does that make me and Atheist Communist?

    This post http://truthspeaker.wordpress.com/2010/06/05/frank-viola-joins-with-emergent-churchs-leonard-sweet-in-writing-new-book/ is a pile of garbage. Frank is NOT associated with NAR at all. He is NOT associated with House2House. House2House attempts to use Frank to build up it's noteriety...

    To Preach or Not To Preach

    Frank Viola is NOT an Emergent any more than Billy Graham is a Mormon lover (even though he cleaned up his site's reference to them as a "cult" when he endorsed Mitt Romney...) If people would read rather than trust the writings of broadbrushers they'd know Frank is more biblically based than...

    Bible Study What subject did Jesus teach on more than hell, money, salvation or repentence

    I read George Eldon Ladd's landmark book on the Kingdom of God. It was great but it did not seem to imbue the same character as that in the NT. The one thing that is present in all forms of modern teaching about the kingdom of God, is that all teach from within the presupposition of belonging to...

    To Preach or Not To Preach

    Farouk, What does the author show us about the word "preach" translated from the Greek word kerussein? Another translator translates this Greek word as to teach... But the entire book isn't so much about preaching perse. It also deals with the centrality of "the sermon" and "the pastor" to...

    To Preach or Not To Preach

    David C. Norrington in his own words 2 Timothy 4:2 ‘Preach the Word’ The use of kerusso here is rather surprising as it is used primar-ily for the proclamation of Jesus and the gospel to unbelievers outside Christian gatherings. But here (as in 2 Cor. 11:4) it seems to refer primarily to...

    To Preach or Not To Preach

    Farouk, The book isn't about not preaching.... Its about how the scripture shows us to preach (as an outreach to non-believers) over and against preaching as a regular part of gathering together. Where in the NT does it dictate or guide us to preach to the body of Christ?

    To Preach or Not To Preach

    Late last month I re-published a book that went out of print in England back in the 1990s. The author, now dead, responded to his critics in 2007 and we added 20 pages to this book in this new edition. We made the margins wider and the white space between lines more prevalent so that it is more...

    Let's have another controversial post on inerrancy

    Thanks all, I cannot contribute to this thread any further... Its been an interesting thought process and its helped solidify my understanding and given me further exposure to the other side.

    Let's have another controversial post on inerrancy

    tandemcpl, To resume my thoughts from earlier... The inerrancy folks think, and have said as much here on this thread, that IF we don’t believe the inerrancy of scripture that we are at the same time saying it’s untrustworthy. This is an epic jump in simply logic on one hand and pejorative and...

    Let's have another controversial post on inerrancy

    P31W, Why do you refuse to answer questions about how you relate to God and God relates to you? You were rather expectant that anyone answer your direct question with direct answers.... So how about it?

    Bible Study What subject did Jesus teach on more than hell, money, salvation or repentence

    Vocalyocal, are you addressing me? If so, please detail what you mean by the fifth kingdom and its differentiation from the former four. Secondly, how is God's kingdom, which I agree is manifesting in the lives of real believers, really evident in today's believers who all see themselves from...

    Let's have another controversial post on inerrancy

    tandemcpl, The issue here is over whether we rest in a belief in a belief, like the Mormons, JWs and religionists do. Or whether we are walking with a non-deistic God, one who is able to communicate (not special revelation) with us, where we actually have a relationship with God Himself rather...

    Let's have another controversial post on inerrancy

    I beg to differ with you all... We're missing at least two books in the New Testament, which the actual text we have admits as much. Philippians says that it is the second letter written to this fellowship and 3rd John states that a former letter was absconded and so it is actually 4th John. If...

    Let's have another controversial post on inerrancy

    but when the book tells of missing parts and we don't have the original documents, NO ONE can say the "original" documents are inerrant because we cannot observe that they are. They don't exists and the documents we have shows that some were lost before they could be replicated... This idea...
