    Discussion I am now doubtful , about my salvation.

    Romans 10:9 AMPC Amplified Bible because if you acknowledge and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord [recognizing His power, authority, and majesty as God], and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. Put your complete trust in Jesus and righteousness...

    I committed the unpardonable sin

    The unpardonable sin is exactly what the Bible calls it, and Jesus elaborated on. It is to blaspheme, (speak out against God), the Holy Spirit. You can blaspheme Jesus, and be forgiven. The Pharisees claimed that Jesus, who had the Holy Spirit, had a demon, therefore calling the Holy Spirit a...

    Holiness Pentecostals: Why Does Everyone Hate Them?

    Since this thread has been resurrected, Any claim of an aspect of God that is not His love is opposed to the Bible and is false doctrine. Loveless "holiness" is paving bricks on the road to Hell, or even a holiness that diminishes love. A holiness that would have someone tell God, "no," is not...

    I Cor 14:3

    I think that it's very questionable to make exclusive rules bases on such statements. Can prophesy serve to edify, exhort and encourage, clearly. Can it also serve to warn and correct, from other scripture, I think, it's also a clear, "yes."

    Being tempted

    Funny thing is she's praying what I said to her on Sunday for me, and so is my pastor. He says it's only fair, but I don't think it's fair at all. There should be a no boomering clause in anything I say to people I love. They don't see it like that.

    Being tempted

    ...and yet, our enemy is defeated, and greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world. How can it be both? I don't know, but it is. I have a friend who is downright angry at how hard life has gotten, but I know that God has great things for her. I wish I could hug her until she sees...

    Discussion spirit of Christ and Holy Spirit differences

    I've never thought of it like that. If I understand, then, you're viewing the term spirit of Christ more poetically, as a way to express the new creature we become and not as Jesus's Spirit, different from the Holy Spirit.

    Discussion Changed in the twinkling of an eye?

    The explanation of the verse lies in the verse. 52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. At the last trumpet. Yes, we are new creations at the moment of salvation, but we...

    What are some ways you share the gospel?

    What for you is the minimum might be a filthy rag for someone else to do. Having stated that, I do want to write a tract though. I know someone who leaves Chick tracts at places and I would love for there to be a better message than, "God hates you, and if you accept Jesus He'll hate you a...

    The power of God when a preacher admits he was wrong.

    That's a deflection. But it's also off topic, so I'll drop this line of the thread.

    The power of God when a preacher admits he was wrong.

    So are you saying that any action or speech that is not explicitly in the Bible is invalid?

    The power of God when a preacher admits he was wrong.

    You are free to speak. You are even free to be dishonest if you want, since identifying that would be considered a personal attack. I am free to challenge what you post, like I am right now, and that is not kicking the player. However, accusing me of kicking the player every time I disagree with...
