Why don't you say what you think? Why would I do your work for you?

I'm shaking in my loafers.

“And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that...

1 good reason why?

Why would I listen to you? Give me a reason.

To me, George Romero's "Night of the living dead" illustrates typical human nature visibly. The same human nature Jesus describes when he tells the Pharisees they are graves that appear not, whited sepulchers, full of dead men's bones.

Paul and John teach the avoidance of sin. Jesus did too but not as noticeably. Can you sin and be saved? “Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:” Hebrews 12:14 (KJV 1900) Sin-tolerant churches are only sending people to hell.

I think very few that profess adherence to the acrostic TULIP are saved. Luther was the first I know of to teach doctrines of that logic. Calvin never taught Limited Atonement. And anyone can use logic to arrive at them without the least change in their heart. So If you can prove and experience...

There is no next relationship. Marriage is for life and any divorce and remarriage is adultery. It is either to remain single until the spouse dies, or reconcile.

How can you have faith in your religion if faith comes by hearing the word? And if your institutional Church style is not found in scripture? And whatever is not of faith is sin?

Paul takes away your excuse for sinning. He says walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. This includes sinful thoughts and imaginations. “Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity...

Great! Annnnnnnd? The Trinity is God?

Does the creed teach God's indivisibility and omnipresence after you read it and think about what it is saying? I see it clearly.

Nit-picking the creed does not address my claim. No song and dance here.

One of my favorites is "Tremors". Graboids are huge worm-like creatures that crawl at high speeds under the ground with snake-like tongue creatures protruding through their mouths and through the ground. They grab people and even livestock. Dragging them back into the big worm's mouth. It...

We used to have a house church and attended others. It is like a "cottage prayer meeting" without formalities.

Here's exactly where you miss it. Paul moaned: “O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?” Romans 7:24 (KJV 1900). If you do not have sin present 24/7 you do not have the Holy Spirit. But does Paul give in and sin? No, but those who do are probably lost and do...

I'm probably much the same, but I'm happy all the time except when around people. If you assess your life and problems, it's always the people you know. My wife is the exception.

“Likewise greet the church that is in their house." Romans 16:5 (KJV 1900) church. A word generally used to translate the generic Greek word ekklēsia, which variously means “gathering,” “assembly” or “congregation.” Grenz, S., Guretzki, D., & Nordling, C. F. (1999). Pocket dictionary of...

What most fail to grasp is that when born again we receive our old spirit raised from the dead in Adam. And since Pentecost, we also receive the Holy Spirit joined to that new human spirit. But our flesh remains the same. So an ongoing battle develops that lasts a lifetime. Paul says: “For the...
