    Bible Study Do we love the truth!

    This is a pretty cut and dry statement, but it is hard to follow to its logical conclusion. We give evidence that we hate God every time we sin?

    There truly is a lot going on spiritually inside our hearts. Here is one thing: in Jesus lives all the fullness of the Godhead, therefore, with Him living in our hearts we are completely full... For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the...

    Maybe you could explain the "proper context and references" that puts the three Greek verbs in 2 Corinthians 13:5 (which are all present tense, active voice, and indicative mood verbs) into the future. Do you • not know yourselves , that Jesus Christ is → ►12 ἢ10 οὐκ11...

    It's not a game. You say the verses I quoted can't be true because the verses you quoted must be true. That is not a good argument. However, I would answer your question by saying that Jesus' departure from earth was necessary as He said, but was only temporary because, as He said, "I will not...

    What does this mean: "Now the Lord is the Spirit" (2 Co 3:17)? What does this mean: "But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him" (1 Co 6:17)? What does this mean: "God is Spirit" (Jn 4:24)? What does this mean: "We will come to him and make Our home with him" (Jn 14:23)? What does...

    This is the hill on which you're going to fall on your sword? Jesus can't live in our hearts because His location (sitting or standing at the right hand of the Father) is stated in Scripture? How do you make sense of the many dozens of Scriptures that say He does live in our hearts and that we...

    I know it was. I was just having a little fun with the subject.

    It proves the axiom, "You are what you eat". Jesus has in Him the nutrient, "eternal life". And it is not metabolized. Therefore, since it is not metabolized, if you eat Jesus, you have eternal life. And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12...

    You need to check again... Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified. (2 Co 13:5) Just as it is impossible to merge the three, it is impossible to separate the three...

    You and I see that these verses are pointing to a real thing that is going on inside our hearts. And we revel over the fact that the God of the universe, our creator and redeemer, lives in our hearts. But to many, these things are not real, but just words on a page to be parsed. We need to help...

    No, but any believer can baptize other believers. No, but a non-believer can marry people if they are licensed. Absolutely! Why not? No, I think that one is closed. Your boys aren't doing that either, are they? I don't know what purpose that would serve. God is the only one who can forgive...

    There are many things wrong with this post. I'll just pick five things to refute. First, Christianity is bigger than the ritualistic catholic sect. Everyone knows you all think that almost everyone outside your church is lost. But you must know that many people outside catholicism think the...

    Those are some very odd statements. It is almost as if you do not realize that Jesus resides in your heart. You do know He's in there, right? Here are some verses to heighten your awareness. If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make...

    Yes, of course. All saints (i.e., all true Christians) are in the royal priesthood. In that sense there are NT priests.

    Have you never read John 6:45? It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me. (Jn 6:45) Do you not know that under the new covenant we don't need human intermediaries? No more shall every man...

    We do have a direct line to God. What in the world are you saying? We need to go to other people to get to God? That thought is anathema.

    Peter not the rock nor the first Pope

    Sorry, I should have explained instead of just blasting out Scriptures. There are no Bible verses that say that the NT church has priests. I posted all the verses containing the Greek word for "priest" to show that. Walpole pointed to several verses that have the greek word for "elder", which...

    1 Tim 5:19Do not receive an accusation against an elder except from two or three witnesses. Titus 1:5For this reason I left you in Crete, that you should set in order the things that are lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded you— Heb 11:2For by it the elders obtained a good...

    Acts 15:23They wrote this letter by them: The apostles, the elders, and the brethren, To the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: Greetings. Acts 16:4And as they went through the cities, they delivered to them the decrees to keep, which were determined by the apostles...

    Acts 2:17‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. Acts 4:5And it came to pass, on the next day, that their rulers, elders...
