    Is Mid-Trib belief against Pentecostal teaching?

    Not a debate, dear friend just replying to your "What is your opinion on this because I have never attended anything but Pentecostal churches and never have I heard that pre-trib belief was prerequisite to affiliation.....I appreciate any comments....thanks in advance" and giving you my own...

    Casting crowns

    I looked the word "us" (which is what the KJV says) up in the original Greek and the word is "hemas" pronounced "hay-mas" which is a personal plural ie: we, us, our...in this case US and WE. The other translations have written it incorrectly. I'm not a KJV-only person, but the original language...

    Is Mid-Trib belief against Pentecostal teaching?

    Frankly, if you will check my post at the other thread you referenced you will see that I disagree that pre-trib "falls apart" at all. I don't think the whole church are elders.

    Casting crowns

    Maid, you said: In heaven but not in Christ, doesn't make sense. Everything in heaven has it's counterpart on earth...on earth as it is in heaven...I believe the elders here are angels that rule the heavenlies It is not true that everything in Heaven has its counterpart on earth. When Jesus...

    Is Mid-Trib belief against Pentecostal teaching?

    After re-reading this entire thread, I edited my post, Maid. Your pastor sounds like a good guy and if you love the church, then, by all means, go there! It's hard to find a really good, Gospel-preaching church. That being said, I'm a minister, myself, and I tend to lean toward pre-trib or at...

    Should I do this?

    If the TVs were yours and not your mom's and sister's, then throwing either of them away would be fine. When they belong to someone else, no matter how vile the shows on them are, it is a sin for you to destroy them. It is a form of stealing. So, my advice is, don't watch TV. You are not forced...

    I once was found, but now I'm lost

    When you ask "Why did God LET me get this far away from Him" you are blaming God for the spiritual condition you are in. God gave you free will. He isn't a slave-master who will keep you on a chain, forcing you to serve Him. He is a loving God Who desires above all else for you to have a love...

    Is Mid-Trib belief against Pentecostal teaching?

    Maid, your pastor was somewhat mistaken in what he told you. I grew up A/G and have gone to Pentecostal churches all of my life. Some pastors preached pre-trib and some preached mid and post. Obviously, pastors can be wrong. The important thing is to be ready, because we don't know the day or...

    What does this verse mean?

    The word eunuch in the original Greek in which the Bible was written means one who is castrated. In other words, made to be non-sexual. Some were born without the parts to be sexual.The eunuchs served in the temple, so those that chose to be castrated were doing it as a service to the Lord, to...

    I think I might be dead.

    SSAMMOH: Let's look at this logically, or as the Bible would say it, "Come, let us reason together." If you were dead, you would either be in Heaven or Hell. There are no other options. You would know immediately which place you had landed! Because you are still interacting with your...

    How Do I Get Healed, I Have Prayed And Alot

    I highly recommend the book, THE KEYS TO HEALING A Handbook for Miracles. THE KEYS TO HEALING: A Handbook for Miracles by Etty Blaney It is written by someone who asked God "Why? Why do some people get healed and others don't? Why do some healings take so long to manifest? And "How do I get...

    I want to share this with you. (prayer needed)

    No one is judging you or your brother. Sin is sin, in whatever form it comes. Jesus Christ died to save sinners. He loves your brother (and you) with a never-ending love and He longs for your brother to know Him. I will be praying for your brother. The voice in your head that is shouting at...

    In need of help dealing with an unsaved/difficult family member

    I would do my best not to give her anything to talk about. Don't discuss your business with her. Pay your bills (especially anything due her) on time, and keep silent about what is going on in your life. Also, look for somewhere else to live. Ask yourself: "If this sister didn't exist, where...

    Why am I obsessed with this particular actor?

    Since you have admitted that you have had sinful thoughts about this actor, then, I would conclude that you are lusting and lust is sin. The Blood of Jesus is a strong weapon against lust and sin. It breaks the power of lust. It breaks the power of sin in your life. Pleading the Blood of Jesus...
