We must understand that ... "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned." 1 Cor. 2:14. By speaking terms such as "do you want to drink of the living water" by not first...

Wow...big posts! I didn't read it all, sorry. i think Paul said it best..."I had not known sin but by the law" and "the law is our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ that we may be justified by faith". The law is a MUST!!!! the law is like a mirror that shows us where we've transgressed a holy...

Genesisgirl, what if it was Sept 10th, 2001, and you had 5 minutes to speak to everyone in the World Trade center. Would you be a subtle witness? You may not have time to "model" the Christian life...your friends may not have a tommorrow. TALK TO THEM! Give them scripture! If you're a friend...

Be careful here...faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Scripture is essential and the authority on truth.

You can avoid philosophical and theological debates by just addressing her conscience with the 10 commandments. Has she ever lied, stolen, or taken the Lord's name in vain? Then by her own admission, she's a lying, thieving, blasphemer at heart and she must face God on judgment day. Ask her is...

TheLambofGod, Sorry, I'm somewhat confused by your post. Are you a Jehovah's Witness?

You're not alone! Success isn't measured in how many converts, if that were the case, Jeremiah was a failure. We are all called to sow seeds, but God gives the increase. Salvation is of the Lord and it's His timing. Keep sowing the seed! and remember Galatians 6:9, "And let us not be weary in...

Paul's marks, I believe, were his stripes and wounds he got from the beatings and scourgings.

Merry christmas to you all!

First, John 8:58 is a good way to find out just what people think about the deity of Christ. Secondly, John 8:56 tells of a man who is dead (Abraham) and he "saw". Can dead people see? Lazarus and the rich man could see, feel, had memory, had desires...pretty interesting.

What's not reality about a mustard seed..what's not reality about a sower...I think you misunderstand. When Jesus gave a parable, He used actual objects for a lesson. He never made up fantasy, like hobbits or aliens etc... You misquote the scriptures. It says "kingdom of heaven". This is not a...

I'm glad your article mentions this passage...read John 8:58; Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. This would make Jesus God wouldn't it? John 8:56 is a good one too...it says Abraham saw His day, how does a dead Abraham see Jesus' day?

Read the verse...it's very plain... And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; It's a succession of events; he died and was carried. Don't try to place a gap where there is none.

Wow, Gary...big post...If you're going to copy and paste, please give credit to the writer. I'll try to answer in pieces and make this as simple as possible. First, is a parable based upon reality or fantasy? Every parable Jesus gave was told in realistic settings and events. Even if it was a...

It's odd you think that's funny. Jesus was not being a comedian in Luke 16:19-31. Where is the heart of the earth in Matthew 12:40, " For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth". Is a grave...

Luke 16:19-31 is no parable. Either there was a man named Lazarus or Jesus lied. Either there was a rich man in hell, or Jesus lied. Is Abraham also not literal? Of course not. When specific names are named, it's no parable, it's a literal account. What purpose would it be to allegorize this...

Paradise "was" in the heart of the earth, not in heaven. Mat 12:40..."For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." Read the account of Lazarus and the rich man in Luke 16...Paradise was...

Where is paradise located in Luke 16? According to Jesus, it's in the heart of the earth, Mat. 12:40, the same place as Hades, but there was a great divide separating the two, so...before Jesus ascended to heaven and "led captive a host of captives" (Eph. 4:8), the souls of the saints were in...
