    Meaning

    savagewind, You are misquoting people or are not understand properly, what the Bible actually says. At Psalms 12:6,7 we are told that God WILL protect His words from all generations, Isaiah 40:8, 1Peter 1:25. If the message of the Bible is changed, it is no longer God's words!!! Does that mean...

    Question for the Evangelical Community

    E.R.M., In Theology, the branch that deals with Salvation, is called Soteriology. Scriptures on this subject can be found throughout the Holy Scriptures. It really does not matter how the vast majority of religions teach their members, because the Bible says that we will all stand before...

    The KJV: A question for defenders

    Derry's Wall's, The truth from God can be found in almost any Bible, you just need to do more research when reading many Bibles, so as to understand exactly what is being said. There are many Scriptures in the KJV that are not understood by ordinary English readers, but if you compare the...

    Scientific Proof of a Soul

    AlexandertheGreat, Even though Christians are happy when something in science or archeology proofs what the Bible has said for thousands of years, it is not necessary for belief, or faith in Jehovah, The Almighty God, who created all things and is the source of all life, Revelation 4:11, Acts...

    What does the leaven represent, which must be cast out?

    Why then did Jesus come to the earth?? Jesus told his listeners to repent and get saved from that wicked generation. There was only one WAY in the first century, there is only one WAY today, Ephesians 4:3-6. Any time you have divisions, one is not right, so there is no reason to have more that...

    Conscience: Simple, Powerful, Infallible

    joe1776, I hate to say it, but your reasoning is untenable, when you compare facts to opines. In the very first place, our conscience, which is called our superego, is extremely rudimentary when we are born. We all develope our conscience from learning from our parents. If the consciences of...

    Producing life from non living matter

    Ricktheheretic, We really don't have to accept anyone's word about the origin of the universe, especially when the Bible tells us!!! The Bible tells us that God, whose name, in English, is Jehovah, created the heavens and the earth, and all the things in it, Genesis 1:1, Acts 17:24...

    Producing life from non living matter

    FearGod, There is nothing wrong with holding to opines, if they are based on facts. The best way to learn is to go to the Bible, and try to learn what it says, instead of what someone said it says, without having already made up your mind. The reason that mankind will never create life, is...

    The Kingdom of Heaven is within you

    PopeADope, First, what is the Kingdom, that Jesus was speaking of?? A Kingdom is a government with a King and subjects. Remember the setting in which Jesus said those words, Luke 17:20,21. A Pharisee asked Jesus when would the Kingdom of God come? Jesus said that it would not be easily...

    Scripture discourages Marriage

    Throughout the 7th chapter of 1Corinthians Paul writes much about marriage. He is not really trying to discourage anyone from getting married, but he is trying to make people see that, for putting the most time trying to spread Christianity, it is much easier if single, for marriage brings many...

    I have another question for YOU to ignore

    savagewind, Remember what Jesus said to the religious leaders; You hypocrites, offspring of vipers, Matthew 23?? Jesus was talking to Nominal believers, In name only, Titus 1:15,16. Jesus knew they were also hypocrites, so he told them to get away!!!

    616---The Number of the Beast

    Skwim, The reason 666 is correct is, it is for a reason. Notice that the Bible says that it is a man's number, Revelation 13:18. In the Bible,the number 7 is used as a perfect number. The number 6, a man's number is imperfect, just as man is imperfect. The reason that 666 is the number of...

    If Human Error Isn't the Cause, Then Where Do Scriptural Errors Come from?

    Skwim, Scholars have found out, over many years, that is is impossible for any human to copy the whole Bible, much less Translate the whole Bible, without making mistakes. Something very important to think about, is the fact that God, Himself has promised that He will protect His word from...

    Jesus was a Jew. When did his followers stop being Jews?

    GeelongFams4WldPeace, The truth is Jews are still Jews when they become Christians, but they are then, Spiritual Jews, just as Gentile Christians are also Spiritual Jews, Romans 2:28,29. The actual time this started was on Pentacost of 33CE. This was when the Holy Spirit was poured out on...

    How are they not defaming Jesus?

    sovietchild, You are absolutely right, but there is more to this than what you mentioned. Every time a person calls himself a Christian and then does things that God condemns, he is causing people to blaspheme the name of God, Romans 2:23,24. You cannot do that with impunity!!!

    How far can one go in not taking the Bible literally?

    Skwim, The Bible speaks in many different ways, such as hyperbole, metaphors, Parables, analogies, types no antitypes, and literal. Very few things are said in the Bible that are mentioned only once, so if you want to find truth, look up all the Scriptures that pertain to any subject, and...

    Atheists are not guilty of sin

    PopeADope, We all sin!!! Even David who was a man after God's own heart, was born in sin, Psalms 51:5 Ecclesiastes 7:20 says there is no man that does not sin. 1John tells us that

    I have another question for YOU to ignore

    savagewind, Here is a point that should be taken into account, when contemplating Jesus' teaching. Jesus was not always sweet and nice to his hearers. Jesus could read people, and when he had tried to teach them several times, he knew that his teaching was not getting through to them, so...

    Jesus was a Jew. When did his followers stop being Jews?

    GeelongFams4WildPeace, This is an example of type and anti type. The Jews were God's chosen people, but they would not obey His laws. When Jesus came to earth, he said that none of the Jews were obeying the Mosaic Law Covenant, John 7:19. Peter even said that the Jews could not obey the Law...

    What "the end of days" means to you. Open to Abrahamic faiths.

    Savagewind, If you had learned the Bible while you were associating with witnesses, you would know that obedience to any man is relative, you should obey the ones taking the lead in the congregation, as long as what they say is Bible based. We must obey God rather than men, Acts 5:29. Our...
