In fact, all that is needed is prayer. I suppose that's why Jesus said his burden and yoke were light. Nonetheless, though, making prayer a top priority is something unusual alright, not like the world is doing.

Yeah, no doubt things are weird, alright. My mom even joked we had been taken over by aliens. :D Yeah, this is surely a wakeup call, the worst one in recent memory.

The verses pertaining to this seem to be about the rapture to me. However, this seems to say if a person isn't absolutely holy, they simply aren't going. Well, that seems fair enough! Nonetheless, it's scary cause who could be 100 percent holy like a monk?

Possibly some think they pray enough, but the fruits exhibited by these people show otherwise.

"Apart from me nothing can be done by believers" said Jesus. In fact, people should pray as much as they eat and more. In fact, the works which justify believers come from prayer - and the believers are only mediums of the prayer - since Christ is really doing the works. How much prayer is...

People convinced they are God, pretty much believe it. I suppose Satan is into some New Age Thinking. Maybe he thinks God is bluffing.

Well, this is a huge propaganda message of Satan. In fact, my sister told me once that the Christian life was boring. That was her excuse. In fact, I also remember witnessing to male friends about 20 years ago - and sure enough, there rebuttal was "They just couldn't get sex and be a...

I think there is a huge movement to portray God as "not fun". Well, that's Satan's propaganda message of sex, drugs, and rock and roll, so to speak. However, though, Christ taught us to live "the abundant life" - which is what real human existence is, but we can only understand it by...

No doubt that negativity is a tool of Satan but could also being positive? I mean, positive in regards to thinking God is all about us being prosperous - giving people the wrong idea? But what is promised in the Bible? Well, peace of mind and I suppose the ability to prosper - within reason...

The eternal hell doctrine and possibly the one about monogamous marriage only vs polygamy permission. Yes, the Prosperity thing is also wrong.

A life of strong sincere daily prayer result in works which justify, but they are works done by Christ - which seem to be done by us to people.

God doesn't want things coming between him and you. Just like he doesn't want riches to be more important than him (Jesus meeting the rich man). Basically he wants someone totally sold out to him - mind, body, soul.

Well, one thing it's tied up too much with race. I mean, there's so much racial resentment, that a black person, seen as having special privileges (affirmative action) might not relate to a poor white person - or a white person wouldn't relate to a black person, cause they just see that person...

God only reveals truth to those with an open heart to it. Look at the situation with the Pharisees. In fact, people narrow-minded simply look at verses and come to their own biased conclusion - because they are narrow-minded. In my case, I think the verses regarding Christian Universalism...

Punishment exists for an age, but not eternal (many are not interpreting scripture correctly). Since churches preach "eternal damnation" it simply promotes God as being monstrous - and a hypocrite, since he demands Christians to practice never-ending forgiveness, but doesn't do it himself!

Yeah, stuff like a clean house and car speaks a thousand words.

Satan is trying to divide everyone, no doubt. That's why Christians should stay out of politics - cause that's a big tool for division.

No, I don't think people should walk on eggshells - as in the modern way of how everything is tolerated. Nonetheless, I don't believe a lot of Christians have done a good job witnessing, since so many potential converts are attracted to Satan's lead in some way, knowingly or unknowingly. Satan...

Basically, words are being interpreted differently causing some to believe annihilation, eternal punishment, or some kind of universal reconciliation, mind you, with maybe a lot of harsh corrective punishment. Now, as for some belief stating all ways lead to Christ. That would be general...

No, I think the self-righteous obsession of many Christians has driven so-called "oppressed groups" further toward Satan - who comes as "an angel of light". https://www.raptureforums.com/forums/threads/could-white-conservative-christians-related-differently-to-so-called-oppressed-groups.162443/
