    Is Tithing required by the New Testament?

    the curse was removed, but televangelists like Creflo Dollar and other greedy scumbags won't admit this, they need the curse to guilt and extort tithes out of you so they can become richer. tithing was for the Jews, not for us, there's no more Levites, no temple, no more animals to sacrifice...

    Is Church of Christ A Cult?

    some of these denominations I would hesitate to call cults but would call them pharisaical legalists from some of the descriptions in this thread. Cults use the same techniques of intimidation, information and emotional control and leader worship. If there is intimidation applied if we...

    The Incorruptibles.

    it's fake, Col 3:25 and many other scriptures tell us God is not a respecter of persons, so no preferential treatment for special "Saints" or spiritual masters. Jesus is the master, everybody else is a sinner

    no secret rapture. no pretrib possible. (duplicate thread)

    excellent post, think of it from a logic standpoint also, why would Jesus all believers that they would suffer persecution, except for the last generation because they're so special they get raptured while every one else has to suffer. It sounds more like an entitlement philosophy to me...

    End Times started long ago (for us). Enjoy Yeshua's Shalom !

    Good scripture verses, nee. Both peter and john in their letters to the church state that the end time have already started after Jesus returned to heaven. John says something like "little children, we are in the last days..." and peter makes a similar statement 1 or 2 peter.

    A Statement From A Recently Turned Non-Christian

    Thinking about it last night, it seems to me what turned the thread poster King James against Christianity was Christian subculture, which has nothing to do with God. It's pretty easy these days to get kicked out of churches for not conforming to a superficial ideal of what a Christian is...

    A Statement From A Recently Turned Non-Christian

    only 35% of bible prophecies are to be taken literally, it makes me wonder if we're all missing the boat. churches teach every word of the bible is to be taken literally, while anybody that studies Jewish history and rabbinical tradition sees that most of the bible is symbolism, parable, and...
