    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    The document has a little bit more to comment on than just salvation. And therein is the problem. It is not what it does address; it is what it does not and cannot address. The problems of the 17th century are not the problems of the 21st century and thus an out-moded document is not very...

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    I have already answered that question, and quite thoroughly. Don't be so lazy that you can't look it up just because you are a "Johnny-come-lately." Too bad. I am not going to repeat myself.

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    It was an illustration. If you can't deal with the illustration imagine yourself as a citizen of another nation. Let me give you an example, but first a quote from Wikipedia: So, SG, if you can't understand me, or simply won't, go make yourself a citizen of Saudi Arabia and see what it is like...

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    Jesus Himself said that he did not take you out of this world but has left you in this world. The world is not His. He said very clearly that the world would hate you because it hated Him (Christ). Or according to you Christ hates himself. You have some weird theology.

    I don't know what question you are referring to. The two previous posts including their derogatory language are not worth answering, nor am I compelled to answer any of your posts.

    And yet in all this rant of yours you were unable to answer the question posed in the original question asked of you. Pity.

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    Did I at any time deny its inspiration? Why are you inferring I did? I asked: What is the relevancy of this scripture to your life today: 1 Chronicles 26:18 At Parbar westward, four at the causeway, and two at Parbar. Just because a 17th century document has scripture in it does make it...

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    Hab 1:5 Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you. Hab 1:6 For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to...

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    Yep, just like Obama is the ruler of the lost and not the saved!! The Christians can run roughshod right over America because they are above the law of man and subject only to God's law, and not man's. Are you ignorant of God's law?? Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher...

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    Go back to England then, a couple hundred years or more ago, when the monarch yielded real power. The citizen of the nation had to yield to the authority of the king. You would be the king's subject; he your "lord." The servant, you, must abide by the law of your lord, the king. If you fail...

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    No, God is sovereign, possessor of heaven and earth. He can delegate authority to whomever he wishes. At this time he has given the control of this world to Satan. All we see around is wickedness for Satan is the god of this world. It will remain that way until Christ comes and sets up his...

    Is Obama your god? He rules over you?

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    God allowed Satan to have his way with Job just as God in his sovereignty is allowing Satan to have rule over this world. But you won't admit that inspite of what the Bible says.

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    Truth is relevant to you SG because you know how to post silly images on the internet?? What a wonderful application of the Bible. No wonder you spiritualize the Bible. What does salvation mean to you? It must have some mystic meaning as well??

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    I expect an admission of truth from you. If Jesus was ruling now Isis would not be committing the atrocities they are committing including genocide of Christians in Syria.

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    Is truth always relevant to you? Let's test that theory out? Here is a verse of Scripture. You tell me its meaning and how it is relevant to you in this day; today. 1 Chronicles 26:18 At Parbar westward, four at the causeway, and two at Parbar.

    If you want an example just google "Independent Fundamental Baptist Churches." You will find hundreds of websites, almost all of which have a statement of faith. I don't have the time to type it out for you.

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    What part do I not agree with? The kingdom of God is not present. The world we live in is Satan's domain. He is the god of this world. Christ does not rule this world. His Kingdom is yet to come. And it will in His time not yours, not the CofF, or any other document's say so. I believe what...

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    Homosexuality, lesbianism, transgender(ism), are wickedly being written into a pubic school sex-ed course to be mandated for all students to take. Marriage is not between a man and a wife any longer. They are taught otherwise. Our government, justices, and school systems say otherwise. Yes, it...

    Why should the 1689 Confession of faith be used?

    Such a statement was not needed in the 17th century confessions of faith. One cannot simply say that because scripture is timeless the confession of faith never has to change. Such a statement is foolish and does not take into consideration the culture or the era in which one lives. We are...
