    Matthew 16:24, 25

    We have never been in accord since Constantine, the doctrine of men has been slowly replacing what Jesus actually said and taught with 'interpretations' that alter it to mean something different than what was plainly said according to what their itching ears want to hear. The Church today is...

    Just How Big is the AI Bubble?

    unqualified people are already using AI to replace qualified people by simply filling in the gaps in their qualifications with AI output. Much lower end medical and legal work is already being done by AI with human assistance or sometimes no assistance at all and this trend is moving upwards...

    Matthew 16:24, 25

    I would see the difference as being that I believe the words of Jesus and you believe something based on other teachings. I will never leave the direct words and teaching of Jesus and I doubt you will leave the teaching of the Church in their place so I doubt we will ever be in agreement on...

    Ex Astronaut claims UFOs are actually Demonic Beings

    Since I was a child I have believed, for reasons I can't explain, that ufo's and aliens would be players in the last days. Perhaps this was only a childish fantasy, but I have seen nothing to change my mind that it will happen and much of the things described in the Bible are explained by it...

    Matthew 16:24, 25

    What are you calling Christ's righteousness? Using undefined terms that have different meanings to each reader leads to disagreements where there should be none. And that really doesn't answer questions about works Jesus said were part of his judgment, it leads away from it.

    Is something good because God commands it or does God command it because it is good?

    What would make the clay qualified, its own desires?

    What is 'Prophetic Time' in Bible Prophecy?

    That thinking is the same as of a number of Catholics I've known, one a relative. There seems to be some sort of small sect withing Catholicism that believes this but they (if I understand them) also believe it will be a specific Pope and not the Papacy itself that will emerge as the Anti...

    Matthew 16:24, 25

    Since you quote Matthew 25:34 what is your take on Matthew 25:35-36 which seems to indicate that those that inherit the Kingdom because of their works? It seems he separated the sheep from the goats because of their works to me, those he chose as sheep because they did the works he mentioned...

    Matthew 16:24, 25

    Pay attention to the direct teachings of Jesus above those taught about him by men. That which is said by men is always filtered through their own point of view, it cannot be otherwise, so it should always be considered inferior to the direct words spoken by Jesus himself.

    Thankful for the Dead Sea Scrolls but what does their discovery truly mean as evidence ?

    If you want people to buy something from you, make it easy to buy it. If you think what you write has value and want people to read it. make it easy to read. Black on white is easily read, white on black also easy to read, black print on a bright yellow background is the most readable color...

    Matthew 16:24, 25

    Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. When Jesus said this did he not requiring going works? Matthew 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after...

    Of course I belie e that, without the Father there is no Son and without the Son there is no father and without the Holy Spirit there is no direct presence of them within us.

    Matthew 16:24, 25

    As I see it, the Holy Spirit gives us the ability, not does it for us, and it is up to us to follow through on it. If it were not so then every one of us would become perfected when it came into us. Perhaps semantics is in play here.

    Works are a part of salvation, and out works are not done for us, we do them ourselves. Consider the life of William and Catherine Booth and the Salvation Army origin (There are some very interesting YouTube videos about them if you are of a mind to seek video information rather than written...

    Demon Influence

    But no scripture says God carries us, only that God offers us his help if we ask for it and follow through by acting with the knowledge that he will give us the help as we need it while carrying out our actions. God has laid out a path for us with everything we will need to traverse it already...
