    ROMANS 1:1 THE GOSPEL OF GOD

    Your statement about "reconcile the earth through Israel" is odd. Peter has a passion to see Jewish people saved and God used that passion in his ministry. Both Peter and Paul preached reconciliation through Christ alone.

    ROMANS 1:1 THE GOSPEL OF GOD

    Doug, you made the following statement "Peter's gospel: Peter preached remission of sins in the name of Jesus (Acts 10:43). Peter taught the gospel of the kingdom (Luke 9:2 Luke 9:6 2 Peter 1:11). Israel would inherit the promise of the Davidic kingdom on earth (Luke 1:32 Genesis 13:15). Israel...

    Felicity Huffman college scandal - 14 days in prison

    She is admitting guilt and taking responsibility for her actions which I think is important. She is also having to do 250 hours of community service and pay $30,000 in fines so she isn't just getting away with it along with the 14 days in prison.

    ROMANS 1:1 THE GOSPEL OF GOD

    No, that's incorrect. There is one gospel and both men preached the same gospel. Peter had an emphasis for most of his ministry to go to Jewish people and Paul went to Gentiles, but they didn't preach different ways to get saved. You can read Peter's sermons in the book of Acts and see that...

    ROMANS 1:1 THE GOSPEL OF GOD

    Acts 10:34-35 34 "Then Peter began to speak: “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism 35 but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right." The Lord revealed the truth of the gospel that was going to the Gentiles to Peter also here in Acts 10

    Communion of the Body of Christ

    In the Baptist faith, we would not call it a sacrament. A sacrament is what conveys grace. We would consider it one of two ordinances of the church.

    prayer bible studies

    What is prayer exactly? The Bible instructs us to pray to God, but why? What is the point of it if God already knows what we are going to say? Prayer is faith based communication with God. Prayer is an act of faith because you don’t have physical “proof” that God is listening. When you pray...

    Is Veneration of the Saints something that is allowed by God?

    As I understand it, veneration means respect or reverence for. I think it is appropriate to respect those Christians who came before us, especially if they did great things or lived great lives. But, I think we have to remember that they had no holiness in themselves. Holiness is from God and...

    5 Causes of the Protestant Reformation (besides indulgences)

    This is what the article says about nationalism. "The period of the Avignon Papacy came at a time when the ideology of nationalism was on the rise. Writes Belloc, “This change (or rather interlude, for the change was not permanent) fell just at the moment when a national spirit was beginning to...

    Prayer needs

    I've been trying to keep a list of prayer needs for our forum in the prayer and devotion section of this forum. I would appreciate it if more members would allow us to pray for their needs. The three or four of us who have participated don't make up much of the whole forum. It is my hope to...

    reasons to leave a church

    After some prayer and thought I decided to go back to the church I am a member of. I was there this morning and they said they are partnering with another church that has been dying to revitalize it. So, I decided to join the revitalization group and help this neighborhood church to revive. I...

    Communion of the Body of Christ

    I had a feeling either you or Josiah would make that statement. But, every time a person speaks symbolic language they don't announce it. I don't do that and neither do you. The fact is, that Jesus used symbolic language often. In the parables and also how he spoke to the disciples. If you...

    Communion of the Body of Christ

    You keep saying this mantra that if it was good enough for 1500 years then it is good enough for you. I find that respond to be really lacking however. If you've studied church history you realize that includes the period of the dark ages when the church became completely corrupt and deviated...

    Communion of the Body of Christ

    I believe your quoting the same passage in three different gospels. He does say that and I would interpret that to mean that he is saying "This bread symbolizes my body." The disciples clearly understood that he didn't mean literally because it was not his body, but it was bread

    reasons to leave a church

    Well, I mentioned the incident with secular music before when that incident happened. The praise band did a part of a U2 song "I still haven't found what I'm looking for" which I thought was an odd choice when we as a church have actually found Jesus or we claim we have who is exactly what we...

    reasons to leave a church

    What do you think are legitimate reasons to leave a church you are a member of? I wasn't a member there, but a consistent attender when the church I was at a few years ago was using some secular music during the service and also playing it before and after the service. I told the pastor I...

    Communion of the Body of Christ

    If your talking about being spiritually present with us, this is not just true during communion but in every single moment of life. Colossians 1:15-17 15 "The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on...
