    Reasons for believing in the Bible as the literal word of God.

    Interesting? Perhaps. Of course none is in its original form. How do you account for the inaccuracies and things that are totally untrue?

    Reasons for believing in the Bible as the literal word of God.

    So, how did all of these Bible authors come to describe God as a refiner? Because God was speaking to all of them.

    Reasons for believing in the Bible as the literal word of God.

    It's interesting to me that numerous authors of the various books of the Bible never knew one another, lived during different eras and different locations and yet all said the same thing. Let's take the verses that refer to God as being a refiner or a purifier. 1 John 3:3 And everyone who...

    Why Would Noah's Flood Have Been the Best Way for God to Cleanse the Earth?

    So, I guess you didn't understand the thread title: Why Would Noah's Flood Have Been the Best Way for God to Cleanse the Earth or the similarly worded question in my OP: Why would the flood have been the best and the most efficient way for God to have cleansed the earth of the saturated evil...

    Why Would Noah's Flood Have Been the Best Way for God to Cleanse the Earth?

    I'm actually writing this a second time, because I accidentally deleted it. So please take time to read it. :) Yes, we know that God's way is always best, but that's different to knowing why he chooses a particular action. God does read hearts. Note. Does read. Just in case you doubt that...

    What do you think of these passages?

    The inner man, or the person themselves will rejoice forever. See here... Strong's Hebrew: 3824. לֵבָב (lebab) -- inner man, mind, will, heart The inner person - "I was there." See Strong's Hebrew: 3820. לֵב (leb) -- inner man, mind, will, heart (Proverbs 17:3) . . .Jehovah is the examiner of...

    Investigating Bahaullah's Book of Iqan

    Oh dear! Well lets see how we are doing in that regard shall we? 1. You are of course correct in saying that the writer of Hebrews was contrasting the daily ritual sacrifices with the superlative value of the "once for all" propitiatory sin-atoning sacrifice of Christ...you get a tick for...

    The Power Of The Mind

    Deut 4:20 But as for you, the Lord took you and brought you out of the iron-smelting furnace, out of Egypt, to be the people of his inheritance, as you now are. Proverbs 17:3 The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold, but the Lord tests the heart. Ezekiel 22:20 As silver, copper, iron...

    What was the point in creating the universe?

    If God already knows who will go to heaven, then why bother with creating a universe, put people in it just to see who will qualify for heaven when he already knows the answer? Might as well create those people and put them into heaven, and skip the whole dreary trial of earth life.

    What was the point in creating the universe?

    1. Not everyone goes to heaven, according to the Bible. Jesus said the meek would inherit the Earth. (Matthew 5:3) I believe free will is a gift God gives to all his intelligent creatures, one he will not take away. 2. Those counted worthy of eternal life will have been thoroughly tested and...

    Signs of The End: A Baha'i View

    Dear LadyB, If We read the Bible, we see the teachings of Jesus has been fundamentally spiritual, not materialistic. Even as He said: "You must be born of Spirit" and "There is Spiritual Body and Natural Body" The Messengers of God, had spoken of spiritual resurrection, not physical. But as...

    Predestination

    "You have examined my heart, you have made inspection."—Ps. 17:3 "Serve him with a complete heart and with a delightful soul; for all hearts Jehovah is searching, and every inclination of the thoughts he is discerning."—1 CHRONICLES 28:9. (1 Chronicles 29:17) And I well know, O my God, that you...

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    Well what if we sin? Then the question you should ask is How much sin would it take? Adam lost the universal ball game by one sin, and that sin was not even a large one by man's standards. I mean he didn't commit adultery, or murder or steal. He didn't beat his wife or get drunk or...
