Would you say this is the meaning of Jesus when he said you must be born of both the water and the spirit? That both elements (water and spirit) are needed to be fully Baptized?

How would you handle such things as the current FICA taxes which are already above 10% when the employee and employer portions are added together?

Fulfillment of prophecies in progress. But I think there will be an interim period. a switch over lag, between introduction and its full implementation (just guessing here). BTW, devaluing the dollar is also known as inflation. Something easily accomplished with it being disconnected from any...

What is your understanding of "While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the interior and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples and asked them, 'Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?' 'No,' they answered, 'we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.'...

For total taxation of for an individual tax such as Federal income tax?

Everyone should use cash whenever possible, and have economic commodities for when it can no longer be had. Consider that the day of the Mark is coming, you will get to choose between if and being denied the necessities of life. (Of course it could still be more than a lifetime away, or maybe...

The Church of Accommodation, the New Age Church where everyone is welcomed without question and gets to believe anything and everything they want without regard to what the Bible actually says about and often in addition to it as well. Led by unsound doctrine that pleases people without...

Avoiding teaching of sin to avoid offending the sinners is a growing trend in many Churches today. Only preach about positive and wonderful things that make you feel; good and avoid the nature and consequences of sin, the need for repentance and reform of a sinful lifestyle, the sort of thing...

We live in an age where everything you say to investigators can and will be twisted and distorted to mean what they want it to mean with no regard to what it actually meant when you said it. Way back when, I met and talked with one of the surviving Branch Dravidian's who told me he willingly...

In its simplest form, I would say sin is standing in opposition to God instead of cooperation with him. If that is accepted then the question shifts to how do we know when, or if, we are doing this? Of course, this requires acknowledgment that God exists, at least in some form, in the first place.

If this was actually possible, if it truly worked, someone could really clean up in Las Vegas with it. Gambling is, after all, based on predicting human behavior to the largest extent and if it is predictable there is no random chance involved.
