Zephyr, Would you be so kind as to tell me what exactly you hoped to accomplish by your rude post to Galadriel? I don't think that your speech is "with grace, seasoned with salt." Christ would often tell people what they needed to hear, but He would do it without berating sincere...

A brethren, It's your turn. :wave: Here's the question again, so you don't have to go back a page. 1. Is cashing the check something the charity must do in order to benefit from the donor's grace? Please answer "yes" or "no." After you answer the question, I'll address the...

A brethren, I think we need to keep things as simple as possible so that we can understand each other. I will work on replying to each of the verses you put forth in this post:

I will go through your list of verses one by one with the agreement that everyone of your verses I respond to, you will answer a question. Is it a deal? 2 Thes 2:1-12 In this passage, Paul is dealing with the idea that the second coming of Christ is at hand. He tells them not to be...

A brethren, I really appreciate you answering the questions. Here is one more. I promise I have a point coming, but it is first necessary to have these questions answered. I understand that this might be a pain, but I will do my best to show you the same courtesy in responding to your...

The church of which aggie03 and FC have been speaking of to you is one that you most certainly have read about. You read about it everytime you read about the church in your Bible. Rom 16:16 Salute one another with a holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you. KJV The church of Christ...

Should I just resign myself to the fact that you are not going to answer the questions? I will post them one more time, so that everyone will know you were given ample opportunity to answer them. Once again, all you have to do is answer "a" or "b." 1. Does unwrapping a gift cause you to...

A brethren, I have very explicitly answered your question regarding the Holy Spirit. I do believe the Holy Spirit works in our salvation through the word. You still haven't answered my questions. I have asked very specific questions that all you have to do is type "a" or "b." Why...

A brethren, Why won't you answer the questions?

Suzie, Telling Florida College to take it prayer is certainly a good idea for anyone, but it seemed to serve as an avoidance tactic in your post. Florida just wants to know how Eph. 2: 8-9 teaches "faith alone" saves. We all admit that we are saved through faith, but what is your...

A brethren, Here's a little multiple choice test. 1. Does unwrapping a gift cause you to earn the gift, or is it the giver's grace? a. gift was earned b. gift was of giver's grace 2. When a charity cashes a check from a donor, have they earned that check by cashing it, or is it...

A brethren, Please answer these questions. Does unwrapping a gift cause you to earn the gift, or is it the giver's grace? When a charity cashes a check from a donor, have they earned that check by cashing it, or is it the donor's grace? When a drowning individual grabs onto the...

I don't understand why you made the comment about me disobeying my parents. I never even implied that I had never disobeyed them. There are none that seek after God without the Holy Spirit. But the way in which the Holy Spirit directs us is through the word. Since the Holy Spirit...

The reason that some people choose not to believe is because of their heart. Some individuals honestly want to know the truth, and they are looking for it. When they see the message revealed by the Holy Spirit in the Bible, those individuals believe. Other individuals are closed-minded, and...

If the Holy Spirit didn't enlighten us, none of us would believe. The Holy Spirit enlightens us through the word, or through the Bible. Rom. 1:16 says that the gospel is power of God unto salvation. Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged...
