    Growth “The Book of Life”

    Perhaps you overlooked it. "He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day." "Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you." 'The words of Jesus, The Word of God' (and a few other...

    I get it now, I missed this part; "It can not be lost ..." You're saying, anybody not believing "can not be lost" is evil? Am I understanding what you're saying? .

    Look up "do" in a dictionary, and see if "do" do anything without doing the "do". Jesus done did, now you do the "do". Ye are my friends, if ye "do" whatsoever I command you.

    straw-man argument You left out doing it because God says to do it. Jesus says; "Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you." If they're doing what Jesus says to do, I'm not going to judge them "evil". 'from a divine perspective' ... Who's in charge of that? ... I ain't calling His...

    Not disagreeing on any point, understanding that "causes" requires full compliance on our part to come to fruition. "For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure." We do the seeking and doing, and God supplies the "to will" and the "to do". Moses got...

    You hit the nail on the head! "In your patience possess ye your souls." Being the patient (bearing pains or trials calmly or without complaint) willing recipient of "God which worketh in you both to will and to do", is our life. We have to learn that we can't trust ourselves; just little...

    She was probably the first lady evangelist. Many believed because of her testimony. "And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did." And many more believed because she convinced them to hear Jesus. "And...

    netchaplain: I do not see the primary issue as a responsibility as much as it is all being continually worked in us by the Father (Phl 2:13). You could say that He, through His working in us causes us to be responsible, which is being used of Him to manifest Him in us. Better read that...

    netchaplain: The above passage is a good example of those who only profess faith and have never chose to possess it. "Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent" We can start but not finish; "be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life." Otherwise, Jesus...

    netchaplain: I understand your reasoning, but there's much misinterpretation among those who do not consult Bible commentators. "It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God." NOT; "It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, consult Bible...

    netchaplain: Our only part is to ask to receive! Our part is to "doeth". "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven." God gives us the option to "doeth". "doeth" = "shall enter into the...

    netchaplain: Many Scripture passages, because of the way they read, give the appearance of one being saved but do no intend such meaning. Jesus doesn't make silly statements. We have to be in an un-fallen state, before we can be "fallen". Jesus wouldn't give an option to "repent, and do the...

    Growth “The Book of Life”

    netchaplain: For the Christian in this life, there is no greater encouragement than that of being convinced by “the word of truth,” that everyone who is truly “born again” will inevitably enter the eternal presence of God. Excuse me, are you just making that up? That's not what Jesus teaches...
