This is at the heart of the cross and understood by all who know and love the truth. These posts have clearly proved the truth of Psa. Thanks for taking the time to put forth the truth that all believing Christians have rejoiced in!

[continued from previous post] 5. On the Cross we can see the end of all our sins. ‘And the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all’ (Isaiah 53:6). If my iniquities have been laid upon Christ they are no longer on me. To be sure, there is still sin in me for I still carry the relic of my...

You have to limit the atonement in some way. If our Lord is a ransom for every single person, why are some not ransomed? If He bought with His life, the 'guy heading for swift destruction,' why do some guys still head there? You are limiting the atonement to those who believe or you are saying...

Objection I. "The call of the gospel reaches all men, Titus 2:11; 1 Tim 2:4; Col 1:6; Mark 16:15; Luke 2:10." Answer. It is extended to men of all sorts, Jews and Gentiles, and of all ranks, poor or rich, but not to every particular person, Rev 5:9; Rev 7:9. A warrant to preach it every where...

Nor will the Jews' notion of a guardian angel, if they had it, or an angel attending an apostle, be any proof, Acts 12:15. But many angels, abusing the freedom of their will, by pride or some other sin, quickly fell from that holy and happy state in which they were created, 2 Pet 2:4; Jude 6; 1...

They are represented as now either in heaven or hell, Matt 18:10; Matt 22:30; 2 Pet 2:4; Jude 6. They are unembodied spirits, endowed by God with a very extensive understanding and an active will. And though they can assume bodies of condensed air, in which they may appear to men, Gen 18:2; Gen...

Luke 2:10 English Standard Version 10 And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for ALL the people."

This is a very solid presentation among all who believe and Know the truth. You compare scripture with scripture to refine your understanding which is essential. Those who have turned from truth might suggest this is a theory rather than biblical teaching, it could be they do not understand what...

Romans 3:24-26. ‘Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just...

Both of them are God, correct?

Psalms 38:22 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation. Psalms 39:7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee. Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty...

I completely agree with you, yes, the GOD Father, the Jesus Christ, and Their Holy Spirit are One GOD. Jesus Christ is not Yahweh, He is in the Yahweh. Such Names as Yahweh, Adonai, Elohim, Hashem, are the Hebrew Names and relate only to GOD Father, as well as Jehovah. Jesus Christ has never...

Revelation 1:8, I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the "Lord God," which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. ( Modern Version ) As a first response, this name, "Lord God" is a name of our Lord that is first revealed in the OT in the context of his...

Conflating preaching the gospel with pastoring is a common mischaracterization of many who promote women as pastors. Also citing Deborah is again a common argument - neither of which prove your point. Also Deborah didn't lead the army of Israel, that was commanded by God to be a man's job...

1) Abraham's bosom exists 2) Christ died as a ransom for all 1 Timothy 2:6 3) All people were thus purchased, those to be saved and those never to be saved. 2 Peter 2:1 4) Christ became the means of reconciliation for the whole of humanity. 1 John 2:2 5) Only those individuals whose faith...

It's beyond me why God would prohibit anybody - male or female - from preaching the gospel. I can understand men doing most of the work in the NT since the gospel was given to them but women were still involved. If you unrighteously judge women for preaching/pastoring, then you're against God...

"who privily shall bring in damnable heresies: errors in the fundamental doctrines of the Gospel; such as relate to a trinity of persons in the Godhead; and to the person of Christ, to his proper deity, distinct personality, eternal sonship, and real humanity; and to his office as Mediator...

Mary and Joseph 1. Socially middle class like everyone else in their village 2. Economically. Lower class. How do you know? Luke 2:24, they offered 2 turtle doves which was only allowed for the destitute according to the OT Bonus Question. In the OT was was the normal sacrifice for a 1st...

Jesus is sometimes portrayed as a destitute wanderer or even a homeless person, who had nothing and no place to call home? He is usually associated with poverty and suffering, than with the opposite? But do the scriptures support this popular depiction? The book of the genealogy of Jesus...
