Christians do unto others as they would have other do unto them. They were persuaded to commit to Christ. Just how this was accomplished is up for debate, but all of us agree we are to spread the word through persuasion, not compulsion. The idea of conducting the ministry of Christ by...

In Matthew 25: 31-46 Jesus teaches about the end of the age of grace. He will begin is Millennial reign, sitting on His thrown. Some have read this passage and conclude, mistakenly in my opinion, that Christ's division will be based on works. But I believe "giving to Christ what He needed"...

Thanks, but since Christ was accepted by some (His disciples such as Paul) the chronology does not seem to have carried worthwhile weight. Does Christ's fulfillment of prophesy get negated if either timeline is accepted as the correct one?

I see where a construction project for our shipyards was recently announced. The potential problem with all very expensive military hardware (like the B-2 bomber) is we should avoid putting too many eggs in one basket. It might be that low earth orbit hypersonic weapons might destroy most...

The verse is a compound sentence, with subjects, verbs, direct and indirect objects. There is no separate thought. We should always give thanks to God for you as beloved by the Lord. Subject, =We; Verb = should give thanks, direct object = God; indirect object for you the beloved. We should...

How would the addition to or deletion of the timeline discredit Jesus?

1) Addressing my qualifications rather than the topic. This marks the poster as a deceiver using fallacious argumentation. 2) Totally made up false claim with no evidence. This again marks the poster as a deceiver using fallacious argumentation. 3) Totally made up false claim with no...

More absurdity posted by the non-stop fount of falsehood. Many will seek to narrow door is scripture, many will NOT seek the narrow door is Calvinism.

Yet another Calvinist falsehood proclaimed to derail discussion of the truth of the gospel.

Still this buffoon tries to hid is ignorance by hurling idiotic insult. He did not know the difference between continuing in the present and continuing in the future. These false claims are the house of cards, Calvinism is built upon. Many seek the narrow door precludes no one ever seeks...

Yet another denial that the Doctrines of Disgrace are destructive heresies. But no response to the overwhelming evidence. 1) The lost seek God, thus total spiritual inability is a destructive heresy. 2) God chooses individuals for salvation through faith in the truth, thus individual...

I see Luke 11:10 has been trotted out as if the verse supported the idea that none ever seek God, because if they did, all would find Him. Again, utter biblical nonsense. Who decides if a prayer will be answered? The person persistently knocking, trying to talk with God, or God who decides...

Folks, this poster made a false claim about Greek grammar, then rather admitting error, changes the subject to my qualifications. Thus his character is confirmed. The present tense indicates an action that is in progress, such as the sun is "rising." It does not indicate the sun will continue...

In Colossians 1:3-5 we see that our hope of everlasting life with God is at least part of the basis for our faith in Christ and our love for God's chosen ones. And we came to have this hope, faith and love because we heard, and learned from the gospel of truth.

Why does it matter whether 5000 years BC or 4000 years BC is the date for the first human according to scripture? Adding another example of where numbers found in various early texts do not agree, only reinforces the belief that errors have been introduced in the transmission of the inspired...

I like to look at the CSB to compare various renderings of a verse under study. I prefer the NASB as my primary study bible, but I have a friend who thinks the CSB is best. The use of Yahweh rather than LORD, the NASB choice, does not bother me, but that change did bother many, hence the walk...

First, when continuity is meant, the perfect tense is used. Second, Luke 13:24 says many seek God and do not find him, such as those seeking God by works rather than faith. Romans 9. So your "undoubtedly" find Him is unbiblical nonsense. You seem to be advocating a rewrite of Romans 3:11...

These false teachers rewrite none seek God to none ever seek God and then claim those pointing out that is a rewrite are rewriting the verse. Yes I know they are pretending to be idiots but it bothers me that folks who claim to be Christians would be so deceitful. None seek after God could...

There is no reason to continue. I pointed out where I thought your OP was off the mark scripturally, and you do not see any reason to discuss the issues.

When I was a young person, the pulpit uniform was a dark suit and tie. Now, a goodly portion of preachers dress informally. But most avoid short pants, and open shirts. It is hard not to make accommodations with the cultural norms of your audience. Vulgar words are increasingly heard on TV...
