    Justification

    If you love your Lord you will keep his commandments :) I agree MC, scripture says its a combo deal (faith plus works) and you and Menno agree with that, no one here disbelieves that (no one is saying "by works alone!") Btw 'plus love' should be included in the combo, because faith without love...

    Justification

    So is that a type and shadow? Deeds in the OT are filthy rags but in the NT Jesus makes us righteous as in our faith 'produces' righteous deeds. Also, does that imply that in our faith our deeds ARE righteous? If I save a lamb that fell into well for instance, and Jesus is my rest (Sabbath)...

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    He said it 'is' but then he said to do this in remembrance of him, symbolic I believe because if it were actually him you wouldnt have to remember if he is right there as bread and wine. Bread is his flesh (that he came in the flesh) and the wine his is blood (the gospel/the lifeline). It's not...

    Revelation says that our robes will be washed white through the blood of the lamb, but Im sure Menno has an explanation on that ;) Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

    Can I run around in your church and shout out "hallelujah!" spontaneously? Cause I will :) lol I believe we all have a sound mind in the spirit of Truth even our brother Menno (whom im noticing to agree with alot lately) I also think long debates were an issue for the apostles and we should...

    Thanks brother Menno, Hebrews was actually the first book I remember reading (yup I just opened randomly and read) and the first line I remember reading was "for our God is a consuming fire" and it has never left my mind. Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

    for a while I felt that church was still not for me but on one occasion God literally drove me to church unaware lol one minute Im at home depressed, angry at my girlfriend and the next im hit with the Holy Ghost lying in town square in the middle of the road as Pentecostals prayed over me :)...

    Justification

    I imagined that if there were a God that he would send me straight to hell for burning the bible when I got high with some 'friends' after school one time. God took no part in my rebellion, that was all me and my frustration with instituted religious pressure... that very episode of the bible...

    Justification

    When I was at my peak of atheism I would have never believed that in a short time I would be on my knees begging God for mercy, that's when I starting reading the bible and opening my eyes, repented and got baptised :) Wow, I never wrote that down before, the bible did not call me to repentance...

    Window shopping one's religion.

    I can't afford to pay tithes, I did ushering but it's impossible now with my job, I actually haven't been going for over a month. I haven't been to confession since God knows how long, but non of the Catholics in my family take church seriously anymore since all the kids are grown up. Actually...

    Justification

    Well a person who believed they could save themselves obviously would have nothing to do with Christianity or the bible nor would want to hear about it, they would have to generate a whole idea of heaven all together to be saved from hell. Do you see the RCC as a bunch of buddhist heathens? My...

    New Heaven

    And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. Revelation 21:1 -------- What does this mean exactly? What is Heaven now if there is a new Heaven? -------- Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not...

    Justification

    Every church has a degree of dogma, that's why even as church goers we should be able to divide and discern scriptures for ourselves because you cannot walk into a church and come out saved you have to do your homework. MC can't possibly agree with absolutely everything that every catholic...

    Justification

    Can we at least define 'works'? To me it's 'action'. In faith you are called to do what is 'right' opposed to wrong. If Gods will is good then you should act on his good will other than being without conviction and going against God by doing what's wrong. Anyone can act good and brag about it...

    Justification

    If we do Gods will we must act on them, if not our faith is dead, our actions justify us and not faith alone. So what is faith without action? According to scripture it isn't faith at all. Faith is action and action is faith? Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk
