    Am I in the right place?

    Hi Melisand, We take nature and our environment for granted, but if one would stop and think about it, it is proof of a creator. Just think, all the fruit trees there are and that they produce not only food, but they also produce the seeds to grow more fruit trees. Rivers and streams that...

    Bible Study Free from Hell

    Hi Kidron, There is a change in a person that has repented and has been regenerated by God with the Holy Spirit.. I had never heard of someone mistaking Salvation with discipleship, nor have I read any thing about discipleship taught in the NT Church. What I understand about the NT church is...

    The Importance of Denominations

    Hi Jim, I agree with much of what you posted. I found this Web History of the Reformation interesting. Reformation Papacy - Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reformation_Papacy The institution of the papacy underwent attacks by many Protestant reformers, including Martin Luther (Pope Leo X...

    Why Like Cats?

    Hi Wondering, I love my Cat, it is loyal as our dogs were. This is my second Persian The last one, when it passed, jumped up in my bed near me and passed away. It still hurts me to think of her love for me and losing her...I love all of God's creation. Death is an intruder in Gods creation...

    Gnosticism.

    Paul had many false beliefs of the The Doctrine of Christ that he had to defend against. One of them was Gnosticism (knowledge, science). Genostics assigned Christ a subordinate position of His true deity and Godhead, and devalued His finished redemptive work as not complete. That He was...

    When Did The Church Begin?

    Yes, But it was God's plan all along (Omniscience) (predestined)

    Unlearned and Self Willed

    Hi Truth, Your Scripture was good, which brings up another controversy. Those who say we should not celebrate holy days (holidays), But as long as a man celebrates it to the Lord, it is between him and the Lord. What ruins holidays is the commercializing of it, and yes, we should minister to...

    When Did The Church Begin?

    Hi, wondering, As was mentioned, The Church was initiated at Pentecost in The Acts of the Apostles. But the Church, in God's plan was called out before the foundation of the world. In God's plan, the Church was decided before Israel's calling. (Eph. 1:3-8)

    Unlearned and Self Willed

    Hi Jim, I picked up a book called, Doctrines that Divide by Erwin Lutzer. He discusses the doctrines that divide the whole of Chistendom and the many reasons for them, many of the same things that I noticed also..It is a good study.

    Unlearned and Self Willed

    Hi Truth, God is not a God of confusion...the problem is indoctrination...Either by self will (pride or ignorance or both) or by a denomination doctrines of their own self willed beliefs. All false doctrines are by carnal reasoning, and all are influenced by Satan. The one thing absent from...

    Unlearned and Self Willed

    Those who do not know the Gospel and it's doctrine by rebirth (Spiritually) are tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine and self willed carnal understanding. (Eph. 4:13-15) Those who do not understand or comprehend the Scripture, and the doctrine of Christ, tend to think no one else does...

    Bible Study Because He Lives.

    Hi Brother Bill, I Agree, but mainstream worldly Churches or the visible church are grouping these falsehood and self willed deceivers as Christians. Look at all the religious sects of different persuasions that do not recognize the authority of God's word but interpret what they do not...

    [__ Prayer __] Going Through A Rough Time Right Now

    Hi HR, Failure comes from the flesh...the flesh always fails when it comes to Spiritual matters. Learn to discern your thoughts and actions with the Spirit, and when we get off track (and we all do) Christ is always ready to lift us up to victory. Praying for your situation. In His...

    Bible Study If someone doesn't know about Christ, and has never heard of Christ, then where do they go when they die?

    If God has called you to missionary service by the Holy Spirit....Go. If not, support missionaries financially to where your heart is troubled. God is not a tyrant, but their will be no evil in the kingdom to come (Rev. 21:8; 26-27). If you want to see what evil is really like, watch a...

    Bible Study If someone doesn't know about Christ, and has never heard of Christ, then where do they go when they die?

    Hi Seeker, Here is how I understand it. God is not unjust and will judge each one accordingly.. Even the heathen natives in a primitive society know there is a God, just by the order of natural things (as Eugene pointed out) Rom. 1:19-20. For they are they that worship the things God created...

    There are several denominations that believe and teach that between death and resurrection that the body soul and Spirit sleep. Among these and most prominent are JW and SDA. People who do not believe in the Father, Son and Holy Ghost as the trinity do not realize that we ourselves are a...
