Grace?
Again, I do think that you are confusing yourself by introducing the pre-destination concept which actually no humans can truly understand. God has Grace all the times. Yet regarding to salvation, the term 'grace' has a stricter meaning in contrary to Law. God applies Law to govern freewills... -

No Charges against God's Elect !
I do think that you are confusing yourself by introducing the pre-destination concept which actually no humans can truly understand fully. On the other hand, the theory itself is rather simple IMO. God applies Law to govern freewills. By the old covenants, humans need to obey His Law one way... -

Trinitarianism: What Non-Trinitarians Believe
The question here is, the sacrifice of one man can save all men, or God's self-sacrifice saved men. The anti-Christ would like you to believe in the former in order to ridicule Jesus Christ. John 20:28 Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus Christ didn't reject Thomas, it means... -

Is God a Murderer?
When a shepherd killed a wolf for his sheep. Is he a murderer? The sheep will say no, no matter what the wolves will say. Moreover, murderer is an accusation in terms of law. So by what law you name the shepherd a murderer? The wolves' law, the wolves however don't have such a law. On the... -

Is God a Murderer?
Planet earth is a place for humans to fully execise their freewill. And warring followed by genocides once upon a time is a human establishment as a reult of human brutalty. God allows Israel to be just as brutal as its surrounding enemies to survive the history. God chose the Jews not because... -

How MUCH Did Jesus Suffer?
When a human sacrificed himself in a painful way to save some ants. I don't think to proper to compare if he's suffered as what the ants having been "sinned". -

There is no God
That boils down to what is meant by "proved". You can't prove my existence, but still we can chat on the net on a daily basis. Faith sometimes is the reality. -

Purposefully distorting Paul's writings.
There's nothing wrong with the contexts. Paul's context means the same with or without the "alone". And James is right. Paul is talking about the covenant. Faith (and repentence) is the only thing required to be saved in accordance to the covenant. James further defines what kind of faith... -

Can a Person Get Saved Without Understanding The Trinity
The Bible is not about how you will be marginally saved, but about how to best secure your salvation status. That's why you are asked to be baptised, you are asked to be holy. You are warned that just saying "O Lord O Lord" may not be able to best secure your salvation status. Believing in... -

Can a Person Get Saved Without Understanding The Trinity
The Bible is not about how you will be marginally saved, but about how to best secure your salvation status. Believing in His Trinity is one of the good signs of God's acknowlegement about your salvation status. God simply told you who He is. -

Did Fallen Angels Have Sex with Earthly Women?
I have an idea, but with not much support thou. They could be other homo erectus. Usually, son of man bears two meanings, 1) a prophet, 2) just someone with a man's figure, or someone looks like a man. Similarly, son of God can be used to describe two separate things. 1) the angels, 2)... -

Is Hell an Invention of the church ?
I know where you are coming from. :-) I was raised in a country (commies) where all kinds of religions are virtually absent. I didn't have much concept about Christianity. I didn't have much concept about the triunic soul/spirit/body nature either. I simply experienced through death to know... -

Is Hell an Invention of the church ?
It depends on how you define soul sleep. I actually offered two views, that is, the paradise view and the 'fallen asleep' will. My preference goes to the latter, because I think that I actually experienced through the whole process call death, till to the 'soul sleep' part. I thus prophesy... -

Is Hell an Invention of the church ?
It is simple, humans uses words bearing multiple meanings to describe things in different situations. It's not uncommon. I already gave an example before, 'Frankie goes to Hollywood" could mean that Frankie would like to be a artist star. You are not more professional then those translators such... -

Is Hell an Invention of the church ?
Actually, it proofs the opposite, you may try to spin the verse or explain them away though. 1 Peter 3:18-20 (NIV) For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit, through whom also he... -

Is Hell an Invention of the church ?
Sheol has a meaning of "grave", but the words are not totally interchangeable. Sheol also means a place storing human souls/spirits. Amongst the ancient Jews, only Sadducees don't acknowledge the immortality of souls. While Sadducees only represent the Jew minority as nobles. Sadducees are... -

Angels can not Sin !
The verse itself is quite self-explanary Even the Greek version will not vary that much. And it is not a good idea for me to trust knowledge than God Himself. And God directed the translation in those legitimate versions such as NIV and KJV. The point is, your translation is not more... -

Angels can not Sin !
2 Peter 2:4 For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment Jude 1:6 And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their own home—these he has kept in darkness, bound with... -

Is Scripture Corrupt?
Human knowledge is never more accurate than God's guidance. Humans eating too much from the Tree of Knowledge to think that they can judge the Word of God or even God HImself. Piece of advice and warning from the very first chapter of the Bible, disregarding how you would treat my translated as... -

Can We Cease from Sinning While On Earth?
I think you are right here. We are aksed to be holy instead of sinless. "To sin no more" should be our will set in heart, we pretend this because God knows our hearts. Other than that, we try our best to depart from sin to reach holiness. Sinlessness is a measurement against Law, while saved...
