"B: Basic I: Instruction B: Before L: Leaving E: Earth" :thumbsup: Author Unknown

While I would have no disagreement with you on that statement. I still maintain that there is no saving grace in communion itself since salvation is totally based on being washed in the blood of Christ alone.

Communion is a honor that every Christian should have the right to partake of. It was started by Christ on the nite before his death and Christians have copied it down through the years. We have done so to show our love for our Savior and remind us of the awful price He paid for every man or...

I think you are reading into the verse what you want to defend.

Please give me the book, chapter and verse that tells us that<"Jesus consumed and served alcohol himself."> The Bible tells us that He made wine at the wedding in Cana. It doesn't tell us that it was fermented or not. I can hardly see Jesus creating ferment wine or booze of any nature when He...

quote=RomansFiveEight;65182639]Methodists used to promote abstaining for Alcohol and used to forbid wine from communion but wine is now allowed; and our approach is more a perspective of responsible consumption. Growing up in the Church of the Nazarene, Alcohol was totally forbidden. In...

Sorry that I mess up the title to my posting I had planned . It should have read, "What is the big debate as to the day when Christ took my place on the cross?"

What does this stand for; IJ

Are you suggesting that Ellen White's prophecies are on equal ground with the Scriptures?

Do we really think that anybody would admit that they went to Hell and then came back to this planet? I don't read anything in the Bible about folks going to Hell and then returning. Nor do I remember reading any secular articles from folks who have made that claim either. I don’t...

You make a good point! I know when I get to Heaven I don't want to come back. I was just wondering what others thought about going to Heaven and then returning for a while.

What do you think Paul was talking about when he penned: "I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth such an one caught up to the third heaven." 2 Corinthians 12:2 ? Also a former minister of the...

How much stock do you put in people's stories that they died and accented to Heaven and then returned?

Gain If I gained the world, but lost the Saviour, Where my life worth living for a day? Could my yearning heart find rest and comfort In the things that soon shall pass away? If I gained the world, but lost the Saviour, Would my gain be worth the life-long strife? Are all earthly pleasures worth...

Thanks Susy Mac. I use to keep a copy of the tracts I liked. They are really just a short sermon which often carry a message that both Christians and non-Christians need to know. It is sad that today's churches don't use them more. .

This has come to nothing but an argument, which in the end no one can win. The truth of the matter is that Luke tells us in Acts that Paul was converted to Christianity. It goes on to explain Paul's teaching on Christianity and the effect it had on the Middle East during his life time. No place...

Sorry my computer doesn't speak Greek to well. Ha! I can accept your definition, of what a disciple and an apostle were. On the other hand, I don't see any scripture that names anyone else as a disciple or an apostle other than the 12 that were disciples Jesus picked, and it appears to me...

The number of apostles is based on the fact that Jesus called the twelve disciples and the scriptures referred to them as apostles. Do you know of any scripture that speaks of more than 12 apostles? The Bible talks much about others who traveled through the east nations of that time, but at no...

That too is a part of the story of the New member of the disciples. For in Acts we read, "10 And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. 11 And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the...

I would say that Peter may have overstepped his position when he suggested that Matthias be voted into Judas' position and then we never read of him again. I am not alone in believing that Christ's replacement for Judas was Paul.
