    Where Did This Belief Come From?

    Brian2 Okay I understand..... I was thinking of a book in the bible with the title "Gospel of Grace"! I was saved by GRACE through Faith working out my salvation with fear and trembling. We can do nothing to merit the grace, justification comes by faith. a work of grace that God performs in our...

    Where Did This Belief Come From?

    Acts 20:24 But I make my life neither dear nor any account to myself, so as to finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus: to testify fully the gospel of the grace of God. Romans 3:24 And are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ...

    How easy is it for Trinitarians to misread the scriptures?

    I'm asking how you understand Jesus statement at John 17:5. . "And now, Father, glorify Me in Your presence with the glory I had with You before the world existed." What does that mean to you?

    How easy is it for Trinitarians to misread the scriptures?

    I’m sorry to say but if you are relying on one sentence answers to your questions then you will never hear the truth in fullness. Ones like sojourner (and virtually all Trinitarians) relish short UNCONNECTED sentences about their belief. The reason is that short sentences rarely contain more...

    Christians lead people away from Christianity

    I hope you are right. I also think angels and the spirits of the righteous dead souls (Saints) influence us with their prayers and intercession as well.

    Christians lead people away from Christianity

    Reply part 2: God has desired faithful children the whole time, and has drawn near to ALL who want to know Him, and love Him, thats throughout all time, and culture, all divisons! if anyone of us in any circumstance, culture, sexuality, time, truly wish to know and love God ,He will manifest...

    Why is hell eternal?

    Ok....theres a bit of a misunderstanding here. Let me explain. Im not saying God will force his enemies to come to heaven. Also, im not saying a sinner would suffer a moment vs christ suffering a few hours. Let me put it this way. Sinner dies without Jesus. Goes to hell for say 1 full year...

    Why is hell eternal?

    Nothing could be more benevolent then for God to execute vengeance upon his enemies eternally, it would actually be the opposite of benevolence for God to forces his enemies to spend an eternity with him in heaven, also Christ who had infinite virtue suffered for hours before he went to the...

    Watchtower Governing Body: Are They The Exclusive Channel For God??

    First of all "For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight." HIM is not a sure word. It probably says "same" referring to not the person of Jesus but the heavenly realm This is where we part ways. The Bible is not Jesus. Jesus is The Word...

    What does 'Jesus' ie Yehoshua being called the word of God mean?

    In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. God has no beginning and end. In the beginning was the Word. When it says 'in the beginning' the word is first manifestation of God.It has the beginning and probably and end. We can compare this with the matter...

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    Right on brother!!! A gift is a gift is a gift, period, salvation is free to all who have trusted alone in Christ alone for salvation. That is the absolute gospel truth.

    we never asked jesus to die for us

    I seemed to have jumped into the middle of a conversation, so I moved this up. All through out the bible, God provided proof and explanations for those who asked, he is no different now. It appears to me that pretty much every person who has a story, sinned and 'suffered' for them. This...

    we never asked jesus to die for us

    Actually, that is an excellent question, Maize. One site 'thestillsmallvoice.com churns out the usual:- The Bible tells us that "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners" (1 Timothy 1:15). God is a just God who must punish sin. The Bible says that "the wages of sin is death"; and that...

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    A few things.... I think saying that OSAS requires pre-destination is taking quite a bit of liberty in itself. There isn't a convincing connection between the two. You could use one to support the belief of the other, but each is completely interdependent. Secondly, simply listing a host...

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    Christians are saved forever once they accept Jesus as their saviour. They are born, again of incorruptible seed which yields the fruit of everlasting life (1 Peter 1:23). They stand before God clothed in the imputed (credited) righteousness of Christ, and not in their own (2 Corinthians 5:21...
