    more and more christians believe in karma and reincarnation

    Well I did not determine Christianity by what I think. Do you think that Christianity is determined by "how we see it"? Are you saying, you can interpret these verses to mean anything you want them to, and they do not refer to apostasy? (1 Timothy 4:1) However, the inspired word clearly says...

    Matthew 16:18

    Repeating your faulty interpretation a second time won't make it any more true.

    Matthew 16:18

    Being the "cornerstone", thus not a "rock", I would suggest if far more important. Jesus, the "Cornerstone", gave Simon the name of "Cephas" in Aramaic, and that word means "rock" or "stone". In the Jewish tradition, given names when older have a meaning.

    Matthew 16:18

    Note: 1 Corinthians 10:4 says that they all drank the same spiritual drink (for they drank from the spiritual rock which followed them, and the rock was -> Christ ). Jesus' apostles disputed who among themselves who seemed to be the greatest among them - Mark 9:33-35; Luke 22:24-26 There would...

    Why I CANNOT Believe in The Resurrection

    When Jesus died and rose again the world didn’t see Him only the apostles and believers, Jesus said He was going away and would send the Holy Spirit to live inside believers. We are still living in the church age and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. “Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers...

    Why I CANNOT Believe in The Resurrection

    “Although I hope to come to you soon, I am writing you these instructions so that, if I am delayed, you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God’s household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.” ‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭3:14-15‬ ‭NIV‬‬...

    Christians Preferred: Are only Literalists True Christians™?

    I understand your point, I think we may be able to discuss it later.

    Christians Preferred: Are only Literalists True Christians™?

    “Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone, in whom the whole building, being fitted...

    How does one get into the New Testament church?

    Scuba Pete says, "News Flash: Being in the 'right' church doesn't save anyone! After all, was the church crucified for me? No. Go read I Cor 1". The answer to this question is, yes he died for the church, the church is his body which was nailed to the cross, the body is where the saved go to...

    An honest question for JW's

    *** w81 8/15 pp. 28-29 par. 14 Serving Jehovah “Shoulder to Shoulder” *** 14 From time to time, there have arisen from among the ranks of Jehovah’s people those who, like the original Satan, have adopted an independent, faultfinding attitude. They do not want to serve “shoulder to shoulder” with...

    Revelation 20 - Earthly Reign?

    Apology accepted. The city has way too many physical details in its description to chalk it up to symbolism. Additionally, the text actually tells us it is literal and physical: Rev 21:18 The construction [endomesis-G1739] of its wall was of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear...

    Revelation 20 - Earthly Reign?

    Agreed. I know that I can get too strong in moments. I apologize for that. It seems the main difference between our beliefs comes in terms of what I consider to have spiritual fulfillment in relation to a spiritual city, the city itself being the bride of Christ (aka, the 144,000)...

    Is this prophecy about Jesus?

    | Is this prophecy about David's descendant Solomon or about his later descendant Jesus? The answer is BOTH! Building the Lord's house (vs. 13). In one sense, it is Solomon who built the Lord's house when he built the temple at Jerusalem. But Jesus also built a house for God; made of living...

    Solitary Christian

    No - 1Corinthians 12:12-31 is specifically talking about problems amongst the groups, when they come together. 1Corinthians 11:17 - 22 makes this very plain. 1Co 11:17 Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse. 1Co 11:18...

    Solitary Christian

    I read a thread, among many, that the OPs wanted to leave the Church and be solitary. ~~Church: Body of Christ. Not a bulding. Not an organization. A group of brothers and sisters in Christ.~~ Yet, I believe its impossible (according to scriptures) to be a solitary Christian (to practice as a...

    Can someone explain the Trinity please...

    The real question is, 'Exactly what church did Jesus establish?' I know you know that the church is God's spiritual house (aka, the spiritual house of Israel), per 1 Peter 2:5 "Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices...

    Whore of Babylon

    You have more confidence in yourself about the issue of knowing God than I do, so I agree with some of your drift but not all of it.

    Whore of Babylon

    Maybe every organized religion is wrong in understanding and belief. Many churches and many man made temples have truly become a den of thieves. What if God isn't served in four walled places of worship erected in the name of God? What IF God is served through love alone? What if all mankind...

    The Holy spirit...........

    Thanks one and all for your opinions - and I understand the reasoning behind some of your answers. However, when it comes down to the "conservative" element in denominations (and that is why I mentioned Roman Catholics in particular, (I might have also mentioned Eastern Orthodoxy), I know that...
