    The Great Hypocrisy of the Church: Nowhere in God's Word Do We Find . . .

    QUOTE from brotherjim "Dear Steve (and others), There is no connection: it's all in your mind." Actually it's in the mind of God. I gave you the proof. John 3 is speaking about being born again and Jesus Himself summed up what being born again is all about in the verses I...

    The Great Hypocrisy of the Church: Nowhere in God's Word Do We Find . . .

    Quote from brotherjim, " There is no place in God's Holy Word where "salvation," being "saved," being "born from above" (AKA "born again"), is made equal with eternal Life." Joh 3:14 "And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15...

    Does God love everyone?

    Rom 1:28 “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;” I believe the key to understanding how God’s could hate someone He use to love is explained in Romans 1. Remember Hos 9:15 “All...

    Does God love everyone?

    Hos 9:15 “All their wickedness is in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of mine house, I will love them no more: all their princes are revolters.’ Clearly at one time God loved these people but now He hates them. He declares that He will...

    Does God love everyone?

    No! I don't think I miss understand the lake of fire, but it appears you do. So tell me how will God demonstrate His love to those mentioned in the verses below. Rev 14:9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his...

    The Great Hypocrisy of the Church: Nowhere in God's Word Do We Find . . .

    There are to many Scripture passages that teach that a child of God is granted eternal life at his conversion in Christ. If a person could lose their salvation then we have to redefine many words. For example “forever” would not mean forever, “eternal” would not mean eternal, “everlasting” would...

    Does God love everyone?

    "But I tell you: Love your enemies." Matthew 5:44" How would God demonstrate His love for His enemies after they are thrown into the lake of fire? Also, how do you reconcile Palms 5:5, 11:5 and Hosea 9:15 with your statement. PilgrimSteve

    Infant Baptism

    "Baptism is not a sign of us choosing God, it is a sign that WE are CHOSEN by God. Just like circumsion was to the Jews." Not so! Baptism has absolutely nothing to do with physical circumsion let alone replace it. PilgrimSteve

    In the Image of Christ Colossians 3:8-11 “Another Gospel?” “I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we...

    Does God love everyone?

    Hi Colossians, Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus. You said "And by virtue of (1) above then, they were never loved by Him." How would you explain Hosea 9:15? Hos 9:15 'All their wickedness is in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them...

    Does God love everyone?

    Throughout the years I have heard many times from Bible preachers and teaches that God loves the sinner but hates the sin. Does God always love the sinner but hate the sin, or does He in some cases hate the sinner as well? Many passage in the Scripture says that God, in some cases, hates the...
