I see them as the same thing -- good works. :)

er... more frightening than sad!

Ok, I know you don't believe in the Bible Codes but no need to be sarcastic. There isn't just Bible Codes but hidden messages in names, Bible numerics and even the Aleph Tav signature of Jesus positioned at significant parts of the scriptures. And all these just show a computer savvy...

You may think that's "all I know" but that actually says a lot. Many Christians still see an angry old cov God who punishes. Many Christians will fight for the right to tribulate.

That has to do with attitude and motives. I'm not saying you do good works for the sake of doing them or to show off to others how good you are. I think you are intelligent enough to understand that. But the way you live your life will be itself a testimony to others. The way you talk minus the...

Our behaviour has nothing to do with righteousness. Whether you behave right or not, you are still righteous. Why simply becos its by grace not works. Grace means not only NOT getting the punishement (hell) you deserve (that's mercy) but getting the blessings you DON'T deserve (that's grace --...

Yes Tatu is wise for his age. Wish there were more young men like him instead of those Wild Boys surfer dude types (I'm talking about a generation that fed on MTV and talk like MTV) Anyway, righteousness is a gift. Either you have it or you don't. It is also a person really, cos the Bible says...

God is more willing to give then you are ready and able to receive. The number of fish caught were limited by man -- He told them to let down the netS, man let down one net. The oil for the pots stopped when the widow could not find any more empty pots. The multiplication of the loaves...

There are a thousand and one reasons why some people are poor and some are rich -- from laziness to corruption to rejection of the Gospel to lack of wisdom to tithing to lack of grace to wars... Personally, I believe the main reason is the gospel. Where the gospel has gone to and been...

I think the accusation that WOF is saying that other denoms twist scripture is loaded. I am not from a WOF church, and I don't really agree with everything taught, but I'd have to say that it is an excellent movt of God that: 1. Restores the authenticity and authority of Scripture and people's...

BTW, there is a very easy and logical way to prove that healing is in the redemptive work of Christ. 1. The curse of the law includes EVERY type of sickness: Deuteronomy 28:61-62 61 Also every sickness and every plague, which is not written in this Book of the Law, will the LORD bring...

Why couldn't Isa be talking about both? First the sicknesses then the spirtual (sins)? Afterall, Jesus often forgave sins as well as healed at the same time during his earthly walk -- the double cure. Again, Matthew would not have quoted Isa 53:4 in the context of physical healing if in the...

Cool! You wouldn't happen to know whether it says pre-, mid- or -post-trib do you? *L

Again, the sinful state/condition of man (thanks to Adam) is not "healed". Like I said, that's like broken English, a misue of the word. I say this because you'll never find our sinful state or sins (actions) "healed" in the Scriptures. Our sinful state/condition received "justification". We...

That's one of my favourite Psalms. In just three verses, you have forgiveness, health, protection, prosperity and long life. And if forgiveness is in the atonement , so are the rest! :clap:

BTW how many of you here believe that you will live to experience the rapture by the grace of God?
