    Simple trust in Jesus Christ? Where did you pick that up in the Bible? Did your pastor tell you that? I have heard people say just accept Jesus Christ as your personal lord and savior. Isn't that so cheap and so easy??? when Jesus said this and this is recorded in your Bible: Matthew 7:13-14...

    Does God welcome everyone into heaven?

    I did not say, it is in the Bible. Elijah was taken up in heaven. And assuming he came back, where is it written that he came back? And assuming he was taken up to heaven and [you say] he is again found at 2 Chronicles 21:12-15 Then Elijah is somebody who went up to heaven and came back again...

    Does God welcome everyone into heaven?

    That is why I posted the NIV translation showing he said it as translated by the NIV. We have bestowed by God an organ called the brain, for us to use reasoning and common sense which "everybody" doesn't use often that is why "everybody" could not grasp the truth. When in doubt, when things...

    It is true that Jesus said what is written in John 3:13 but to whom was he talking to? Let us read the entire context not just one verse and erroneously jump to conclusions The picture below is from JW.org JW representation of Nicodemus and Jesus John 3:1-13 New International Version (NIV)...

    Does God welcome everyone into heaven?

    Save from what, you asked? Let the Bible answer because this is our basis of faith. 2 Peter 3:7-12 New International Version (NIV) By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly. But do not forget this one...

    I have heard in one heaven a martyr will be met by ...

    What Would Jesus Do (about the current problems)?

    I am surprised at some "pastors" saying that Christ will reign for just a thousand years. What I know is Jesus Christ will return to earth but will not make a touch down. He will wait midair for the people he will save [those who died and those who are alive] Not my opinion but that is what on...

    What Would Jesus Do (about the current problems)?

    Jesus Christ will return surely, as to when is another matter. But this is what he said: Matthew 24:33 New International Version (NIV) Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. What are the things we should see further? All the signs were shown and...

    Matthew 13:36-43 New International Version (NIV) Then he left the crowd and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.” He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man.
