    Problems with Hip Hop

    But I can see why some may have the view that they do about Gospel Hip Hop. Many of the groups that have any type of marketing behind them seem to fall into a catagory where you can barely recognize the focus of their music...not all, but many.

    What exactly is apostacy?

    The reference to Paul that you're referring to is 1st Cor. 1:18. I can see where one may draw the conclusion that because we are being saved, we can, perhaps "withdraw from the process?" But actually, if we look at the phrase "are being saved" we will notice that it is attached to what is...

    What exactly is apostacy?

    Peter, Thanks for your clarification. One question: What is your basis for thinking that salvation wll be eternal vs. salvation being eternal?

    What exactly is apostacy?

    You say God is obligated because your understanding of salvation appears to not be eternal (if I understand you correctly). In other words, you're saying that when God saves us, it has a condition attached. So, if man goes on to live a sinful, habitually carnal life, and even denounces his love...

    Infants in Heaven?

    Let me 1st say that I truly do not know how God deals with the issue of infants...I think that is the most faithful conclusion to draw from scripture... Rom 3:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" ...how is one born with sin? Are you saying that sin is merely a learned...

    Infants in Heaven?

    Genesis 5:3 leads me to believe that ALL are born in sin, because all are born in the image of Adam, which represents fallen man. not to mention a countless number of scriptures that state that all have fallen short....and all have sinned, etc...

    What exactly is apostacy?

    ...or better yet, would someone mind explaining the "falling away" or "departure" that was prophecied in 1st Tim 4:1? Some say these individuals were never saved in the 1st place (aphestimi - to stand aloof)...some say they lost their salvation. Thanks, B

    Church of Corinth, How Do We Know Their Culture

    Great question! Think of it this way. Let's say you and I were close friends for many years. Let's assume that I knew you well and because we were both mutually aware of your strengths and weaknesses, family problems, etc, I would be able to converse with you in a manner that reflected our...

    Have the gifts of the Holy Spirit ceased?

    Yeah, I know... Ray Charles could see that Paul was referring to their paganism from Chapter 10 'til the end. I'm sorry. I could not resist. But seriously... what is Paul supposed to say to them? Is he supposed to just call them Pagans in the letter? Why on Earth would he use, out of all...
