CW you have an icon that shows you are a Christians but question if the bible can be trusted...don't you think by now if they found the bible had been tampered with we would know? There is no much evidence for the bible now its pretty hard to say this unless you haven't done the research. Of...

I am divorced and don't date and haven't in years...I image most that post on here are much younger then I am...but being single can happen at any age! I knew a lady that stayed single until her sixties before she got married...I don't think she was trying to stay single...just never found that...

I don't just believe there is a God, I know there is a God... The bible tells us that God puts the knowledge of Him in all of us. Of course many around the world don't have access to a bible...they don't need to in order to know there is a God. Everything around us is evidence of Him...

That was an excellent study on this passage...very good! God bless

Ok... What I saw was xcrunner71 simply wanted to warn others about hell and how awful it is and to me that is showing mercy and compassion...I mean Jesus warns everyone about hell many time and I sawxcrunner71 simply trying to do what he has learned from Jesus' own words. I really just...

xcrunner...I really hope you don't leave..I read all your posts on this thread and saw NO arrogance at all...I honestly don't know why G2 said that too you... You CANNOT be Lucifer...he is a spirit! You are not. Also satan can only be in one place at a time...so if Sally thinks she is...

. Look at what you said in the first quote on here...you said "People have taken it and expanded the meaning to something almost contrary to the original meaning" So I asked what you were talking about ...where had you head this had other meanings...then you reply you hadn't heard anything...

I believe it means exactly what it says. Its four different types of people that the seed was sow in with four different reaction to it. We know the seed is the message of the kingdom of God because Jesus says that is what it is: Matthew 13 19 When anyone hears the word of the kingdom...

It would be helpful if you gave the name of the book, chapter and verses when quoting scriptures. Also it would benefit you, if you would read this in content. Paul is showing the struggle between the flesh (sin) and the spirit...he certainly isn't saying to follow the law other wise he is...

Ok...what do you think it means? I don't see how it can be any clearer when Jesus says, for without Me you can do nothing. I have never heard of different views as to the meaning of this verse like you seem to have. What are some of the things you have heard? Also you posted John 14:6 which...

What? Why would Jesus (who fulfilled the Jewish laws so we don't have too) be teaching us to go backwards and live by the law which leads to death? Living by the law was trying to 'work your way to salvation'...not accept it through grace alone. Matthew 5 17 “Don’t misunderstand why I have...

Oh ok...my fault actually...sometimes I take things too literally missing the over all message of a post (and here I go again...sorry...its my thing I guess :o) The bible never says Jesus appear in different forms though...He does however work through others and the passage of the least of these...

I am sure He is but its not a surprise to Him either as He warns us about these type of 'Christians' Himself. So He certainly isn't surprised! Matthew 7 15 “Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves. 16 You can identify them by their fruit...

That isn't what the bible says: John 15:4-5 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without...
