    A Personal Saviour?

    Roots of sin

    Nope. Sin is defined as: Man disobeying God by either doing what He said not to do or by not doing what He said to do. Just think if He told me not to eat the fruit from that tree over there, and I did anyway once I just couldn't stand the pressure anymore.... seems small in comparison to what...

    The Sin We All Break, Yet Can Easily Avoid

    Pard, You had me all the way to here: I have to disagree just a little. God looks upon our hearts, not our works because none of us can fulfill the Law entirely anyway, right? Even to hate in one's heart is the same as murder. He is Jesus and Yahweh and Yeshua. He is also The Holy One of...

    What Is “Fear of the Lord�

    There are all kinds of fear. The fear we should never have is one that leads us to either cowardice or that of self-loathing by condemning ourselves with scripture. 'That said, here is a short sample that I hope is helpful to you: Hebrews 12:5-9 says, "And ye have forgotten the exhortation...

    Pearls Before Swine

    The Principle: Casting Pearls Before Swine "Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces." (Matthew 7:6). Of course, these words of Jesus are allegorical. I doubt that any were literally casting...

    Ignoring Romans 2: An Error of Exegisis

    I found this portion of an article by a Theologian at: http://bible.org/seriespage/study-and-e ... mans-21-16 At first glance it appears that Paul is referring to any non-Christian and affirming that if they're good enough—as demonstrated by their works—they will be saved. In fact, he has...

    Ezekiel 28

    I found this article portion at: http://www.christiancourier.com/article ... ezekiel-28 Hope it helps. (1) The king of Tyre had been appointed by Jehovah to his place of authority (v. 14). God is the ruler of all nations (Psalm 22:28), and he places the dignitaries in power, and he likewise...

    Matthew 7:21-23

    It's always best to read what has been written before any single verse or so. Matthew 7:15 - 23 (New Living Translation) 15 “Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves. 16 You can identify them by their fruit, that is, by the way they act...

    Im gay, my father killed himself

    What a terrible thing to say to someone who has just lost his father like that. The scriptures do not claim homosexuality as a demon, but as sin. Did you ADD to the word of God? Is that a sin which will not be forgiven? Tricky, isn't it? And dumb. You and I were bought with a price. So was this...

    Im gay, my father killed himself

    JAMES 7: 14 - 25 (New Living Testament) Struggling with Sin by the Apostle, Paul 14 So the trouble is not with the law, for it is spiritual and good. The trouble is with me, for I am all too human, a slave to sin. 15 I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I...

    Im gay, my father killed himself

    Inquisitive Skeptic, First, let me say how sorry I am for your loss. I know what you are going through because I have two brothers-in-law who committed suicide. Jim took his life 2+ years ago. He was very special to me, and I loved him dearly. Bobby took his life over 4 months ago. I had only...

    Loving the Lord

    I've read that many times over the years, and You're right about having an intimate relationship with the Lord and how that is key to this commandment as well as to everything we do. Recently, I was meditating on this scripture when I saw something that startled me so, I sat straight up with...
