    Faith is being sure...

    Faith is knowing nothing is certain, but that's okay. Que Sera Sera, "God's will be done."

    Faith is being sure...

    Why is that? Faith isn't hope. It is knowing for certain. For example... James 1:5-7, "But if anyone is deficient in wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without reprimand, and it will be given to him. But he must ask in faith without doubting, for the one who doubts is...

    God is not a man

    Yes .. we have more in common than we have differences. We both believe in Almighty God. I was raised as a Christian, and a 'choir boy' in my youth. :) I discovered Islam in my early 20's, and by the grace of God am still a believer. May we both die as believers. Amen.

    God is not a man

    While I believe the soul is from God and created by God, I don’t think the soul of each person is the indwelling of God. The scriptures show various conditions of the human soul, as well as, at what point the Spirit of God enters to take up residence in someone. But as many as received Him...

    One God or many gods

    I would venture to say that sinner satan is an evil god ( the god of this world of badness - 2nd Corinthians 4:4 ) Thus that would include satan's fallen angels who chose to follow him - James 1:13-14

    WHERE IS THE SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS GOD'S 4th COMMANDMENT IS ABOLISHED?

    Me neither brother, however I believe God is in control of His Words. The bible's old testament scriptures we have today is pretty much the same as the Hebrew or Jewish bible. Then we have the new testament scriptures made up of the 4x gospels and the writings of the Apostles. I believe both the...

    WHERE IS THE SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS GOD'S 4th COMMANDMENT IS ABOLISHED?

    I agree with you right up to here. I don't put as much faith in the Roman councils of men that determined the scriptures as you. I ask for guidance in ALL THINGS. As is stated in James 1:5,6: "5Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding...

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    Your last two sentences (only) are valid.

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    No it refers to all who don't believe the truth... "Therefore God sends upon them a strong delusion, to make them believe what is false, 12 so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness." This is significant for two reasons. Firstly because...

    Understanding the holy scriptures is impossible unless God gives you the interpretation

    Good Scripture! If you read the context of 2Thess.2, from vs.3 on, you’ll see vss.11&12 applies to the “lawless”, those acting ungodly. Christendom has been “lawless” since its inception: for instance, killing their brothers. So it’s no stretch to expect that much of what they “believe” are...

    Aren’t we all really worshipping the same God?

    Gods can be true, but thus far there is no substantive evidence thaat will convince critical thinkers that any exist as imagined. What makes the New Testament true? What makes it more valid than the Old Testament? Jews don't recognize the NT, so are Jews wrong just because Christians believe...

    Aren’t we all really worshipping the same God?

    Some of the ideas can be true, and then they can really attempt to worship the actual God. But, I think many have also totally wrong idea what the worship should be. Bible tells about it: God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth. John 4:24 The God who made the...

    Why So Much Trinity Bashing?

    There is another trinity path one can traverse via the Lords Prayer .. "Father " - "Hallowed be thy Name" Did you miss it ?! -- goes by quick .. What's in a name ? What is this Hallowed name ? and the identity of "The Father" .. .. the Hallowed name .. what is it ...

    Why So Much Trinity Bashing?

    You are attacking words in Scripture Matthew 6:9 "This, then, is how you should pray.." One thing to note is when these sayings take place Starts in Matthew 5:1 "Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2 and he began to teach...

    God is a serial killer (Biblically). We need the Virgin Mary!

    So you only disagree with the threat? You agree with the.. serial killer.:) Malachi 3:6 "“For I the Lord do not change" James 1:17 "....coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change"

    By the way -- if you claim to be a Christian...

    The law and prophets may be alluding to the law of physics and the accuracy of knowing the mechanics of - a sort of knowing what's going to happen before it happens scenario. I have no idea the tools utilized then that helped enable the "prophets" to predict events, but I'm fairly sure they...

    By the way -- if you claim to be a Christian...

    I am thinking that James also says "faith, if it has no works, is dead". That is not in line with the false gospel of grace, which "Christianity" holds onto. I also think that James does not come within the book of Revelation. The "Word", "Word of God", includes the Law and the prophets. In...

    By the way -- if you claim to be a Christian...

    This proves that you are selective on verses in Revelation. 'I am the Truth and the Way' is a claim which you have demonstrated that you don't understand. James 1:22 'Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.'

    question for those who reject biological evolution

    Agreed. Historians and biblical researchers generally agree that the Bible is not an accurate, historical account, and that most of it is apocryphal. So why cite it for anything factual or historical? Except the actual linguists and biblical scholars...

    question for those who reject biological evolution

    It's been a while since I read anything so silly. Just because someone writes "I am Fred Bloggs" does not mean the writer must actually be Fred Bloggs. For example, there is a host of novels written in the first person, not to mention numerous examples of non-fiction written under pseudonyms...
