    What or Who is the Church?

    Let's say I cannot explain the verses in an acceptable way to a Dispensationalist. First, there are no Dispensations in the way you conceive the word. BTW, can you think of the first mention of the gospel in the OT? Without looking it up? It has not changed in all these centuries. But Paul's...

    Decision Theology

    Unless born-again, you cannot see or enter the kingdom of God. But a born-again person needs the gospel in order to perceive Christ and live a holy life. Do you think Corneilius was born-again before hearing Peter preach? His works reflected the new birth, but he could not follow Christ until...

    I suggest that you do not understand those passages. As I said. the truth cannot change. The gospel is always present in the OT and the NT. Only we have more of it now.

    Your Question? " Is the New Covenant discussed in the New Testament as compared to the Old Covenant? (Eph. 1:10) speaks of the 'fulness of times'. Time is a factor.

    Dispensationalism

    “Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.” Hebrews 4:1–2 (KJV...

    What or Who is the Church?

    Did you know the OT mentions the church over 300 times? How about Stephen's proof? “This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:” Acts 7:38 (KJV 1900) Church =...

    Decision Theology

    I think they are believers or they wouldn't be there. "The natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” 1 Corinthians 2:14 (KJV 1900)

    Do you believe in the rapture?

    Anyone looking for direct scripture support of the famed Pre-Trib Rapture will come up empty handed. Admits Rapture heavyweight John Walvoord in his book called The Rapture Question (Findlay, OH:1957, p.148). Saying; "Ladd, in contrast to Jones, concedes that post-tribulalional rapture is an...

    Why is this diversity not worrying Christians?

    Only three major divisions exist in Christendom concerning salvation. A. A. Hodge writes; "What are the three great systems of theology which have always continued to prevail in the Church?" 1st. On the right hand, Augustinianism completed in Calvinism. 2d. On the left hand, Pelagianism...

    What or Who is the Church?

    The Church has always been the Church of Jesus Christ. How so? Jesus Christ is the name YHWH according to Jude and others. “Now I want to remind you, although you once fully knew it, that Jesus, who saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.” Jude 5...

    Dispensationalism

    According to Clarence Larkin and many others, (post #68) the Jesuits meant their false theology (that forms the basis of Dispensationalism), to deceive Protestants following the Reformation. Wouldn't this mean it is based on lies?

    Do we need prophets today?

    In the OT, the Spirit was with the believer. Now, since Pentecost, the Spirit is IN the believer. “Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.” John 14:17 (KJV 1900) So...

    When did we recieve the Holy Spirit?

    I think Acts is more about the saved living in OT Israel entering the New Covenant. In the OT the Spirit was with the few believers. But now IN each believer since Pentecost. “Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know...

    Decision Theology

    Jesus says whoever believes has eternal life. So Billy Graham and his forerunner Charles Finney deceived the host of listeners making them think a decision to accept Jesus would save them. The truth is, God saved them making believers out of them. Had they not already believed (been saved), they...

    Dispensationalism

    Clarence Larkin, a famous Dispensationalist said the Jesuits laid the groundwork for Dispensationalism in an effort to deceive Protestants who claimed the Papacy is Antichrist. Says he; “In its present form it may be said to have originated at the end of the Sixteenth Century, with the Jesuit...
