    Salvation

    Romans 5:6-9 does not say that the Lord earned salvation for his people. Romans 5:6-11 6 Yet why did Christ, while we were still infirm, at the proper time, suffer death for the impious? 7 Now someone might barely be willing to die for the sake of justice, for example, perhaps someone might...

    Mocking.

    Jesus Christ King Of the Jews So wrote Pontius Pilate on a board to be placed above the head of Jesus on the cross. It was mocking the Lord. But like Caiaphas who spoke prophetically concerning Jesus "it is better for one man to die than for the whole nation to perish" so here Pilate writes...

    Fulfilment.

    What is this fulfilment that the Lord Jesus Christ spoke about? Matthew 5:17-20 17 Do not think that I have come to loosen the law or the prophets. I have not come to loosen, but to fulfil. 18 Amen I say to you, certainly, until heaven and earth pass away, not one iota, not one dot shall pass...

    What does it all mean?

    Saint Matthew's gospel gives us the "sermon on the mount" which is a moral and spiritual fulcrum for Christians, but what does it all mean? Matthew 5:3-16 3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are the meek, for they shall possess the earth. 5 Blessed...

    Changed Morality in the Catholic Church

    Brother Josiah, it seems that you read the CCC with an eye to find fault. With that as an approach fault will always be found. The same approach reads holy scripture to find fault and always finds it, some practise it with what they call the apocrypha and some practise it with all scripture. The...

    Subordination.

    Saint Paul wrote: 20 But no, Christ has been raised from the dead, and he comes before all those who have fallen asleep. 21 A human being brought death; a human being also brings resurrection of the dead. 22 For, as in Adam all die, so, in Christ, all will be made alive. 23 However, each one in...

    Cross reference bible

    I have a number of bibles and some of them have cross references. Among my KJV collection is one from the Trinitarian Bible Society that is packed full of cross references. But I rarely use them. Sometimes they are helpful when they refer to a passage from the old testament that is either quoted...

    2Timothy 4:1 In the presence of God and Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by the hope I have of his coming, and his kingdom, I urge you 2 to preach the word, in season and out of season, reproving, rebuking, or advising, always with patience, and providing instruction...

    Careful to preserve ...

    People are careful to preserve … themselves. If theology is part of personal identity then it is likely that it will be carefully preserved too. Acts 2:38 Peter answered: “Each of you must repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, so that your sins may be forgiven. Then, you will...

    Salvation

    Jesus said: John 15:1 I am the true vine and my Father is the vine grower. 2 If any of my branches doesn’t bear fruit, he breaks it off; and he prunes every branch that does bear fruit, that it may bear even more fruit. 3 You are already made clean by the word I have spoken to you. 4 Live in me...

    Romans 11:6

    Romans 11:1 And so I ask: Has God rejected his people? Of course not! I, myself, am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin. 2 No, God has not rejected the people he knew beforehand. Don’t you know what the Scripture says of Elijah, when he was accusing Israel before...

    Blessed are you when they have slandered you.

    The conjunction in the verse is 'and"; it is slander and persecute and say all sorts of false things against you. It's possible that the Lord is talking about persecution that includes false accusations as well as slanders in conjunction with whatever "persecution" is intended to imply.

    Why don't you door knock evangelise?

    Sometimes I do. I opened the last time that JWs visited; the three were strangers to me, two men and a young woman (daughter of one of the men). But no baptists have ever knocked on my door as far as I know. JWs do every few months, Mormons used to about once a year but not now. I have an Icon...

    (No Debate) I did an experiment.

    Yeah, I've heard that before but is "mediator" the same thing as "intercessor"? The saints intercede for Christians on earth Revelation 5 mentions the prayers of the saints rising as incense before God from the altar. Who would the saints pray for, aside from praying for justice to be done on...

    That's an interesting perspective. I haven't given it enough thought and prayer to have an opinion beyond the very obvious meaning that if you hunger and thirst after righteousness then God will satisfy your hunger and thirst.

    Eternal life

    I think it means being in Christ. Eternal life is Christ given for us and in us for eternity so that we can share the divine nature.
