    Dispensational Truth - In Time & Eternity

    Reigning with Christ in heaven for 1,000 years makes no sense. Revelation 20 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. 7 And when the...

    While Iran has not officially confirmed a plan to cut the cables, reports indicate potential risks to key infrastructure connecting Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, potentially impacting global data traffic. Impact: A potential disruption could result in decreased internet speeds (higher...

    Folly of enforcing the Regulative Principle of Worship

    I do not understand how a clear and direct statement of Jesus to do something is declared to be only symbolic, not literal. To say Jesus did not really mean we should wash each others feet seems like a reluctance to obey. It makes sense to say this means we are to serve each other, but what...

    DJT Easter message. Really????

    His vulgar language and homage to Allah were highly offensive, juvenile, and inappropriate on Easter Sunday.

    Trump underestimated his enemy!

    Then why did Trump demand angrily “open the f***in strait you crazy b*stards” today in his Easter tweet? It seems like the problem is disturbing him rather hysterically. I am worried about his mind now.

    Dominion vs determinism 2

    Thank you for your support. Philosophical reasoning about concepts like free will and pre-determinism tend to become laborious, convoluted, and abstract. It often clouds the simple self-evident truths of what we experience in life. It is similar to the tedious argument about how nobody ever...

    Dominion vs determinism 2

    This makes no sense. When I first heard the gospel explained to me as a teenager, at a church camp, my own free will did want to come to Christ. I walked up to the altar and accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior. Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will...

    Dominion vs determinism 2

    Convoluted debates on free will vs. determinism are merely a diversion that amuses philosophers. Truth is so simple a child can understand its basic principles. A child is given rules. If the rules are broken, the child is punished or deprived of something. The child cannot tell his parents...

    April Moon Missions

    Very fishy. What is the point of flying around the moon? With far more primitive technology, we allegedly landed on the moon and explored it. In 1969, Apollo 11 was the first crewed mission to land on the Moon.[4] There were six crewed landings between 1969 and 1972 and numerous uncrewed...

    Dominion vs determinism 2

    Calvinists misuse the word “sovereign”. Sovereign means a supreme ruler (monarch) or a state with independent authority, possessing ultimate power, self-governing, and not under outside control. It is often used to describe independent nations, monarchies, or ultimate power over a territory...

    Trump underestimated his enemy!

    Why on earth did Trump in 2002 choose Paula White to be his spiritual advisor? She leads the newly created White House Faith Office, having previously advised the 2016 Trump campaign and the Faith and Opportunity Initiative. Paula White, in 24 years as his advisor, was unable to convince Trump...

    How many here hold to The doctrine of the perseverance of the saints

    Some think faith is works, repenting is works, seeking God is works. They think God just arbitrarily swoops down on a person and puts the new birth into them, and then the person seeks God, repents, and exercises faith. Some people think that you can get saved and no change in heart or behavior...

    Trump underestimated his enemy!

    I voted for Trump and like much of his actions, but this is horrible. Filthy language, praising Allah, on Easter Sunday, is unacceptable.

    Dominion vs determinism 2

    Obviously, God believes that people can see the value of the choice of life or death. He would not tell them to choose life if they were unable to make choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you that I have set before you life and death, blessing and...

    Dominion vs determinism 2

    This logic is spinning around in circles. Our will does change when we ponder the expected results of choice options. We can have multiple contradictory wills within us. We may really want to eat another piece of cake. But as we consider our goal to lose weight, we divert our will to eat and...

    How many here hold to The doctrine of the perseverance of the saints

    Do not confuse getting saved with acting like you are saved. If you think you are saved, but there is no evidence of salvation in your life, what is the point? Do we get saved just so we can go to heaven when we die? Or is there more to it?

    How many here hold to The doctrine of the perseverance of the saints

    Yes, but I did not say that we must do good works to get saved. Once we are saved by grace through faith, our lives should reflect our being born again. If the fruit of the Spirit is not happening in a person, do they really have the Holy Spirit in them?
