In practicing what you preach, I've experienced the worst repercussions from close family and former friends. The USA makes provision for conscientious objection to their policies but it costs you in the job market. Albeit The Lord provides apart from that far above what most can imagine. Follow...
As I understand, the main issue with Luther against the RCC was Free Will. This was the purpose of his book "The Bondage of the Will".
Luther said; Paul teaches, Rom. vii. and Gal. v., that there is in the saints, and in the godly, so powerful a warfare between the spirit and the flesh, that...
The age-old question? . "If God is good and wants to eliminate sin, but cannot, he is not omnipotent (all powerful); but if God is omnipotent and can eliminate sin, but does not, he is not good. God cannot be both omnipotent and good." But scripture says he is both omnipotent and good.

original sin, original righteousness (justice). Strictly speaking, original sin is the state of alienation from God into which all humans are born. Original righteousness (or original justice), in contrast, is the state of innocence in which Adam and Eve are thought to have existed before their...
I worked 1/2 day at a cheese factory. The foreman was a maniac. Screaming and cussing me out for my clumsiness in trying to do the job. I walked off, grabbed a quart of rootbeer, and went and soaked my feet at a nearby reservoir. Later the cops arrested him for trying to blow up the factory. It...
You can help the Devil destroy the person by catering to him. Or you can let him reach a state of misery where he trusts in God having heard you point the way.
Most church people trust in their own works to save them. How so? They believe in Free Will and their own powers to "meet the conditions" for salvation whenever they choose. The problem? There are no conditions. Salvation is by grace alone.
I'm showing that the greatest proponents of the pre-trib rapture cannot support it from scripture. How do you expect to?
How about scripture alone? Here's what Jesus and others say in scripture. Please read carefully.
“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice...
YHWH is defined in scripture as Jesus Christ in the NT. How so? The Septuagint translates YHWH as Lord. This is the OT Bible the early Church used. So when they read it, and saw YHWH translated as Lord, it confirmed Jesus is Lord (YHWH). Also, Granville Sharp's rule translates some obscure...
Daniel said; “And in the days of these kings [Old Roman Empire] shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.” Daniel 2:44...
The Millennium is a Pharisee Doctrine, see Jewish Encyclopedia – MILLENNIUM. Jesus taught a much different view of the Kingdom.
First note, the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven are the same. “the kingdom of Heaven is at hand” (Matt. 4:17) = “the kingdom of God is at hand” (Mark 1:15)...
Adam's sin and our judgment in him for his sin was necessary. You will not understand why until you know the reason God created the universe. Paul shares this in Romans and Ephesians if you look for it. I also mention some of the details in: The existence of the universe
If you trace Israel to its roots, it is easy to see they are a religion and not a race. Abraham circumcised his 300+ soldiers and their families, all foreigners. At the time, Ishmael was his only circumcised household relative. But all became Abraham’s covenant seed through circumcision Genesis...
Dispensationalism is a method of Bible interpretation that began in the mid-1800s. It contains many errors. Hal Lindsey, a leading Dispensationalist and author of the multi-million dollar selling book “The Late Great Planet Earth", tells how he makes the Bible fit current headlines: "The...
Things are just as God planned them. Doesn't Jesus ask if when he returns will he find faith on earth? And remember, all that the Father gave to him will come to him. But iIt's much darker than most think.
Martin Luther says;
First, God has promised certainly His grace to the humbled: that is, to the self-deploring and despairing. But a man cannot be thoroughly humbled, until he comes to know that his salvation is utterly beyond his own powers, counsel, endeavours, will, and works, and...
AA knows what they are doing. The kid needs to crash and suffer the results before he will ever consider relying on God who can help him.
Did you know Martin Luther says the same thing about salvation?
The Jews do not agree with you. Here's what they say.
"Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a "Jew" or to call a contemporary Jew an "Israelite" or a "Hebrew."
The Jewish Almanac - 1980
Chp. 1, pg.3 "Identity Crisis"
"Jews are explicitly not a race. Indeed, race is...
