    Christians: Why is belief more important than morality?

    Doc- Matthew 7:22-23: Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. God will reject...

    Christians: Why is belief more important than morality?

    Do you think that the rich man who went to hell and begged Lazarus to give him water and tell his family about hell was in denial? This certainly was NOT a parable. Jesus never once used a specific name of a person in any of his parables.

    Christians: Why is belief more important than morality?

    Joannicus, you can't take pieces out of the Bible to fit your story and ignore others. Mark 9:44, 46, and 48 all say "where the worm never dieth and the fire quencheth not." Why do you think Jesus preached more on HELL than on HEAVEN? Maybe because Hell is a severe reality.

    Christian: Is the Bible inerrantly true?

    Wow. If God Almighty can't handle making sure that his Word is inerrant... we have a pretty week God. Not one that I want to serve. But since my God DOES make sure that his word remains preserved and inerrant forever... I'm quite happy to serve him knowing that I'm not making mistakes because...

    Christians: Why is belief more important than morality?

    God is ONLY all-forgiving when a person accepts his free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. Why should he forgive a person who rejects him? And it is exactly the fact that it DOES hurt that some people go to hell- but we DON'T blame God for it- we have compassion for other's souls and seek...

    Christians: Why is belief more important than morality?

    Michel, why don't you look at it in God's perspective? He is almighty, so what HE says GOES. It has nothing to do with whether we like it or not! God set a standard- we don't live up to it, he is infinite AND JUST and perfect. Less than perfection cannot have fellowship with perfection unless...

    Christian: Is the Bible inerrantly true?

    All I can say is that there is nothing in the world that the Bible contradicts, and that evolution is merely a theory, one with many holes. One has to take the creation story on faith, because we weren't there. But you won't find anything that the Bible says is true that contradicts what we can...

    Christians: Why is belief more important than morality?

    belief is technically more important than morality because of the utter depravity of mankind in God's eyes. No one can EVER get to heaven his own way, and by his own righteousness, because they are all "filthy rags" in God's eyes. You can never be "good enough" to go to heaven. Therefore, we...

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    Please: do explain the definition of ETERNAL and its interesting to note: the same word is used to describe our ETERNAL God. If salvation ceases to be eternal, then our God ceases to exist. Because he is obviously NOT eternal, just as his salvation is not eternal.

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    the 'seventy- times seven" bit is about people forgiving people... and of course Christ died for the sins- ALL of them, PAST and FUTURE just like the Lord says "no man will pluck him out of my hand," this means any man- including the believer himself- it's surprising how many people over look...

    Christian: Is the Bible inerrantly true?

    I'd like someone to give an error of the Bible first off, so we can discuss that.

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    I'm quite sure that neither on of you have read the above scriptures carefully, or my explanations of them. Precept, if you look carefully at Galations 1:6, it reads "Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ." The "some people" are NOT...

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    Let's pick this apart...vs 4-6 is talking about a hypothetical situation- SHOULD believers be able to lose their salvation, if they were to come to repentance AGAIN and get saved once again, they would subject what Jesus did on the cross to shame. He died ONCE to overcome death ONCE and...

    Christian: Demoninations - Good or Bad?

    If they followed God's word and didn't twist it they would all believe exactly the same thing.... But these were local churches, to carry out the ordinances that Jesus commanded- Baptism and the Lord's supper.

    Go figure. Look above your response there. And yah I DO believe the Bible, inerrant and God- breathed, and Un- twisted.

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    That is what I am precisely saying that they had "back-slidden." They were not being reminded that Jesus was God, because of course they knew that when they accepted him as saviour. The first chapter of Hebrews is NOT a reminder, but a confirmation of the SUPERIORITY of Jesus over everything...

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    The preacher is not saved, especially if he is preaching another gospel. The "preachers" were Judaizers! People who wanted to pervert the gospel so that what Jesus did on the cross wasn't enough, that one had to do WORKS along with salvation. This is PRECISELY the issue that Paul is...

    Christian - Once Saved Always Saved?

    regarding the blasphemy of the holy spirit: The Unpardonable sin was committed by the Jews of Jesus’ day and it would be “that generation” that would have to answer for the rejection of Jesus Christ as their “Promised Messiah". Many of the Pharisees were saved afterwards proving it was not an...
