    Old Covenant?

    Every born anew believer has, past tense, entered His rest, and thus is continually "keeping the Sabbath."

    Old Covenant?

    The first covenant was lacking in that it did not provide everlasting forgiveness of sins, provided by the blood of Jesus. This is not the fault of the people, it is finding that the first covenant did not make the people perfect, for they not made blameless by the first covenant. In fact, no...

    If God is Not Sovereign, Then There is No Grace

    Yet another false claim, a denial of scripture, a refusal to accept the sovereignty of God. Claims such as above, lacking any reference to support from scripture, are a diversion from bible studied edification. 1 John 2:2 says Jesus is the means of reconciliation for the whole of humanity. 2...

    Study 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    LOL, this poster sticks to the copy and paste dogma of the dark ages, as he appears to lack any ability to actually study scripture. Paul is speaking of the beginning of the New covenant in 2 Thessalonians 2:13. That conclusion is dictated by the context, Paul elaborates on "how" the...

    Old Covenant?

    I am sorry folks, but several have claimed my view is in error, but have not addressed why the second covenant was better than the first, as both were made with sinners. They have not explained why "if the first covenant had lacked nothing, there would be no need for a second. I have...

    Old Covenant?

    I think you are claiming God's first covenant could not be faulty because God is perfect. This is claiming an attribute of God prevents a verse from meaning what it says. I disagree. The first covenant provided as temporary covering for sin, the second or New covenant provided everlasting...

    Old Covenant?

    For if that first covenant had been free of fault, no circumstances would have been sought for a second. Christ is the mediator of a "better" covenant. To be better means the second had fewer if any flaws. No, I did not mean the fault was in adherence by sinners, as that charge can be leveled...

    Study 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    It is very clear from the context, Paul is speaking of the beginning of the New covenant in 2 Thessalonians 2:13. Paul elaborates on "how" the election for salvation is accomplished. Clearly the Calvinist effort to transform the noun "salvation" into the verb "saved" is their effort to...

    Do We Need to Defend the Bible?

    Either we tolerate false teachers and their false doctrines, or we defend God's Word. Pretty simple.

    Old Covenant?

    The author of Hebrews in his inspired writings said the Old Covenant was faulty. See Hebrews 8:7. Yes, the effort to rewrite the New Covenant using Old Covenant scripture is faulty, as the New Covenant alters the Old, not the other way around. The only reason for the effort might be to...

    Malcolm X

    Malcolm X was a racist, an advocate of terror, and an enemy of Christ. He parted with the Democrats of that day because they were not racist enough against whites, were not terrorist enough to advocate by any means necessary, and were not anti-Christian enough to abandon equal justice before...

    Do We Need to Defend the Bible?

    I see we have 4 Calvinists claiming I have done something wrong. Go figure... They rewrite 2 Thessalonians 2:13 and then charge me with their malfeasance. Calvinism claims it means God did not choose individuals for salvation through faith in the truth. Folks that is their rewrite. They...

    Do We Need to Defend the Bible?

    In Mark 7:6-9 we see Jesus defending God's word against the traditions of men. Beware of those who rewrite the bible to sidestep doctrines that conflict with their man-made views. If the bible says "Your faith" we should not tolerate those who tell us it really means God's supernaturally...

    Do We Need to Defend the Bible?

    Hold on to the pattern of wholesome teaching you learned from me—a pattern shaped by the faith and love that you have in Christ Jesus. Through the power of the Holy Spirit who lives within us, carefully guard the precious truth that has been entrusted to you. but set apart Christ as Lord in...

    Old Covenant?

    If the first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no need for a second or new covenant. A better name for the "Old Covenant" might be worn out covenant, having outlived its purpose. It was a temporary covenant, not an everlasting covenant. What are the features of our...

    Malcolm X

    I very much doubt that is what got Malcolm X killed. As far as "modified some of his views," I am unaware of his exact wording, as often the left say things that sound sane, but really mean they are using deception as a weapon. Only an atheist would say "by any means necessary...." Every mass...

    If God is Not Sovereign, Then There is No Grace

    1 John 2:2 says Jesus is the means of reconciliation for the whole of humanity. 2 Peter 2:1 tells us Jesus bought even those heading for destruction. Thus Christ died to provide the means of reconciliation for "all humanity," as He died as a ransom for all. Every verse rewritten by Calvinism...

    Study 2 Thessalonians 2:13

    The claim my interpretation constitutes an effort to alter God's message is a falsehood, deliberately posted to avoid discussion of the verse. This is all these false teachers have, because they apparently do not even know how to study scripture. We should give thanks to God for you as our...
