    Faith alone questions

    Hello Don, Ezekiel 36:25-27 is all about things that God needs to do for us (so that we can come to saving faith in Him .. see the text in bold). IOW, that passage says nothing about our faith and/or salvation by faith alone. Ezekiel 36 25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and...

    rejecting salvation?

    Hello Bryony, the Bible warns us not to do so (to continue to reject Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord once we know who He is) in statements like the following, Hebrews 3 7 Just as the Holy Spirit says, “TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE, 8 DO NOT HARDEN YOUR...

    Bible Study How Can These Be Reconciled?

    I think I agree with this too. I struggled with the qualifying phrase "face to face, like a man talks with his friend", but it's easy to understand what Moses meant in context (see below), especially if you consider the manner/form that the Lord chose to present Himself to Moses in (a pillar of...

    Bible Study How Can These Be Reconciled?

    There must be a lot of bad ones :eek Here is John 1:18 in several different translations. They all seem pretty similar to me. What translation are you recommending over these? New International Version No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest...

    Bible Study Rejecting False Assurances

    Wow Bill, keep being blunt brother :) What an incredible ministry the Lord has blessed you with! I also agree with your point that many live Christianity as a religion, most believing that they will "get to Heaven" because they are basically "good people" (at least that's what I've run into...

    God's Will?

    Hi Jim, there's more to cover, but since you've brought this subject up twice now (if it's ok with you) lets start with the issue of "proof-texting" first. You posited the entirety of Ephesians 2 w/o verse #'s to prove that my exegesis of v8-9 amounted to "proof-texting" (which means that you...

    Skeptical...

    Adam and Eve were both created w/o a fallen nature. Jesus is the only person who was ever "born" w/o a fallen nature. HAPPY THANKSGIVING :)

    [__ Prayer __] the neighbors, yet again

    Very sorry to hear this Brother! (I guess it's not bad enough to involve the police?) Praying for you and for your neighbors (and for the situation they've created for you :sad). God bless you! (Isaiah 40:31; Isaiah 41:10; Jude 24-25) --David 24 “The LORD bless you and keep you...

    God's Will?

    Hi Jim, just FYI, I used Ephesians 2:10 (right after commenting on v8-9, in fact :)) as the ending to Post #58 (just one page back in this very thread). Since it has a bearing on my reply to your last post (post #64), I'll re-post that section of Post #58. Here you go...

    New Again :)

    Hi Mike, thank you for your very kind words and your fellowship and support :) They are unexpected (I'm a Calvinist), but they are GREATLY appreciated. As for being followed, no worries, I like the company :) Plus, I already have Someone following me around 24/7 who I couldn't lose even if I...

    Growth Coerced marriage

    I assume you mean something else than an "arranged marriage", so please elaborate a bit more. What problem are you trying to find an answer to?

    Who is in charge

    Hi Daniel, first off, WELCOME TO CF :) As for your question, I'll let St. Paul answer it for you. There is much in this passage that needs to be carefully considered and understood, which includes both the duties of the wife to her husband as well the duties of the husband to his wife...

    [__ Prayer __] my pride :-(

    Praying for you (and in agreement with you about NPD). I am hopeful for you (and for your friends/family) that you don't have it (it sounds like you don't), but thankful (one way or the other) that the Lord has worked so powerfully and made such a profound difference in your life. Thankful too...

    Bible Study How Can These Be Reconciled?

    Thanks Bill :) I never considered the possibility of this until I heard Micheal Card singing about it. Perhaps I heard it taught but didn't pay as much attention to it as I should have over the last 30 years, but I don't think so. You know, it's simply amazing how powerful music/songs can be...
