    Does Anyone Actually Receive The Grace Of God In Vain?

    Yeah, Paul was happy with this lot, the Philippians, confident they wouldn't fall away. As he said it was right for him to think they would go all the way with God, believing and knowing He is always faithful. Php 1:3-7 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, (4) always in every prayer...

    Does Anyone Actually Receive The Grace Of God In Vain?

    2Co 6:1 We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain. Col 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. Eph 4:17-20 This I say...

    What is the rule of faith?

    Hi online friend. Is there a rule of faith? The Bible says faith comes by hearing the Word of God, but I can't immediately think of a Scripture that imposes a rule of faith on anyone. Without faith it is impossible to please God, but is that to be considered a rule? Rules of Faith . . ...

    What do you think about Joel Osteen?

    For some people who prefer the 66 Book canon for accuracy, authenticity and inspiration, the 'poc doesn't meet these criteria, hence their nonacceptance and difference of opinion.

    Link: DIVINE METAMORPHOSIS Evidence Of Change Part One: WILDERNESS, WASTEPLACES, DESERT. These thoughts are an isolated wilderness of loneliness In a mind remote and inaccessible; Inhospitable, cut-off, shut-off; No-one comes here. These lives are forsaken waste places of rejection In a...

    What do you think about Joel Osteen?

    Yes, some do find some parts of the Apocrypha relevant to their moment, which is why the Book of Sirach-Ecclesiasticus was quoted from in the 17th April 2021 funeral service for Prince Philip, the late Duke of Edinburgh. Sirach-Ecclesiasticus 43:11-26 Sir 43:11-26 Look upon the rainbow, and...

    Is John Chapter 6 (esp v32 to end) about Holy Communion

    Hi, To me the parallels are obvious. Nobody literally eats the physical body of Christ or literally drinks His physical blood so we transcend to the spiritual application which is the symbolic ingestion of Christ so as to be nourished and invigorated by all that He consists of. The Lord's...

    What is " The plan Of G-d " in your knowledge, in your own experience, and in scripture ?

    Hi, God's General Plan is for all Creation to be delivered from bondage to decay. God's Specific Plan for those who love Him, whom He foreknew and predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, and called, and justified, and glorified, is that all things work together for their good.

    Do you think God approves of Christian discussion forums?

    Hi, Interesting subject. I believe any discussion that Christians participate in, whether in person or online, should glorify God. In my experience futile online discussions about doctrine are easier to abstain or withdraw from than their offline counterparts. Having hosted and attended...

    Baptism question?

    Act 2:38-39 Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. (39) For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord...

    What do you believe is the most popular false doctrine and why?

    Interesting subject. A few years ago after settling into a particular local ekklesia I was dismayed to discover a missionary couple in leadership, and some others who came into the fellowship later, believed in Theistic Evolution, something which is incompatible with Scripture. This was an...
