Hey Deacon I never thought about solar panels and how they would be perfect for the Amish. When I was younger and fished a lot more, and the Amish by me would use battery powered electric motors on their boats. I wondered how they charged them, though. I think a gas station would do it for a...

I rejected your interstation of it. Nice try though. "For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith." 1 John 5:4 Is an evidence statement. you're making a cause claim. Dave

The reason why I posted this thread was because two of the largest false teachings today, in my opinion, mainly stems from the idea that the NT begins in Matthew chapter one, and not at the cross. One, is Catholicism. Who still use the priesthood, and many OT teachings, not realizing that the...

So close. lol The people who seek did not seek to enter God's way, the narrow gate, but to seek to enter their way, the wide gate. Luke 13:24. "I never knew you" is just the Chaff who thought that they were wheat. What does that have to do with the elect? Hebrews 8:6 But in fact the ministry...

Bright, you'd need to prove it with Scripture.

Van I don't know how to explain it any better than the post that you're replying to. # 71 I believe. Sorry. Dave

Hi Dave. Yes, I see the context. The problem is not in the context. You're clinging to a translation that used old English, which always plays with the order. The word "even" was added by the translators to clarify, only it clarified THEIR meaning, meaning THEIR tradition, not the meaning of...

The ongoing faith, the life. Not the initial faith.

Read post #81 it applies here also. Context matters. Dave

Hi Alan The life is the result of the Holy Spirit indwelling because it is Christ who lives in us. The ongoing faith is the gift from God. Nothing has been proven to extend that gift of grace/life to the initial belief/trust/faith before that indwelling. Read carefully...until proven other...

When did the New Covenant begin? Quick Answer: When did the New Covenant begin? The New Covenant began at the death of Christ (Luke 22:20; Hebrews 9:16). This means Jesus lived and ministered under the Old Covenant (Galatians 4:4). This is why some of Jesus’ teachings expose the true spirit of...

The New Testament Begins in Acts Not Matthew When you read the Gospels in the Bible, such as Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, do they sometimes seem to contradict other parts of the New Testament Scripture? For example, in Matthew 6:15, Jesus said, “If you refuse to forgive others, your Father...

Thanks Ben I hear secular terms used to defend sin and error all the time. Love never rejoices in sin, rather, it rejoices in truth (1 Cor. 13:6). Jesus, His Word are truth. These churches will put secular meaning on words to confuse you. Never underestimate the power of redefining words...

Hey Van The answer is right here in Romans 4 1-5 What then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh? For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God. For what does the Scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was...

Hi Alan We enter into grace, and receive life, the gifts of grace, through faith, Ephesians 2:8. By faith, Romans 5:1-2. This is the correct understanding of those passages and fits perfectly with the verses that you quoted. You're stretching the context of grace to include faith, but we begin...
