    Scripture the Greatest Gift to Mankind,pt.2

    It's like @Iconoclast has no idea how this works? I'm being serious. It's like he is totally ignorant to the realities of the Work of the Spirit of God as HE testifies to the inner man of a person the truths of the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Scripture the Greatest Gift to Mankind,pt.2

    You do realize heretics and false teachers use the Scriptures to lead people astray, right? Your argument is ridiculous.

    Scripture the Greatest Gift to Mankind,pt.2

    If Scripture didn't exist, word of mouth communication would still happen in order to tell about the greatest Gift--Jesus Christ the Righteous One. @Iconoclast, stop causing people to pit Scripture against the Son of God. Your religious nonsense is getting ridiculous. This thread should be...

    The greatest gift given to humanity

    It's the message of Christ that saves people--the Word of Faith--Christ Himself. The preaching of Christ would have still gone on--HE CAME TO THE EARTH AND PEOPLE PREACHED ABOUT IT--and the Spirit of God would still keep regenerating folks for thousands of years. Think about it. It's the Gospel...

    The Old Covenant and the New Covenant are the same Law..

    I've died with Christ--dead people who are no longer a part of the first creation cannot be restricted by law. I'm part of the new creation that is governed by the Spirit.

    The greatest gift given to humanity

    I do not have much to say, but i will say this... The Pharisees had the written word, and treasured it, and then nailed the Son of God to a cross. @Iconoclast, you are repeating the same mistake as the Pharisees. And, can i just be honest here? This thread is dumb.

    Is the virus a sign of end times?

    The term "edifying" in Scriptural context means to be built up into the Lord Jesus Christ--matured, strengthened--all that video did was tickle ears. Once again, Biblical Preaching carries with it certain expectations. For instance, 2 Timothy 3:16--Teaching/Doctrine, reproof, correction, and...

    Is the virus a sign of end times?

    Sure, a pastor can have any sort of speech he wants to have. But not every speech is a biblical preaching.

    Is the virus a sign of end times?

    Not every sermon? Then it's not a biblical sermon. If Christ is not the centerpiece of preaching, then it's not biblical preaching.

    Is the virus a sign of end times?

    1. Other sermons were not posted. 2. It's not my bases, the Word of God requires those things concerning preaching.

    Biblical Penal Substitution

    We could never be a sin offering--therefore He wasn't a sin offering in our stead, He was a sin offering for our benefit. Let me know if i need to clarify that for you.

    Biblical Penal Substitution

    I know this isn't directed to me, but i'd like to offer what Hebrews speaks concerning this, particularly Hebrews 10. Especially Hebrews 10:8-10 8 First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them”—though they were...

    Is the virus a sign of end times?

    First, This was not biblical preaching--it was philosophy mixed with conspiracy theory mixed with some quotations of Bible passages. Christ was not presented nor His work, nor any call to follow Him. Nothing was expounded from the Bible. This did not belong under the category of Biblical...

    CESSATIONISM AND HEALING

    Ok, is this authoritative? Is this statement, thus says the Lord?

    Biblical Penal Substitution

    Haha, thanks bro! Hey--i love the fact that we are all learning and growing and we are serious about understanding the great works of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! We need a greater revelation of His love (Eph. 3)! May it never be that my replies or responses dim the fact that i Love my...

    Biblical Penal Substitution

    Thank you for your reply! I appreciate your explanation. I have two questions: 1. Do you believe Christ was a sin offering? A yes or no will suffice. 2. Why did you not pull in the greater context of 2 Cor. 5 as Paul is explaining the greater realities of the New Covenant in Christ, as...

    Biblical Penal Substitution

    I'm not disagreeing with anything here really--but your view does not explain why people still physically die.

    Biblical Penal Substitution

    Oh yea? Then why do we still die?

    Biblical Penal Substitution

    I was thinking-- I believe the reason we have different "theories" of the atonement is because we see the atonement working in different aspects of Scripture. For example--when we view the atonement through only the lens of the LAW, we we see only the "Penal" aspects of the Atonement. Which...
