    The "broken" bread-literal, symbolic, or both?

    I believe Jesus was speaking figuratively and not literally. And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.” 27Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of...

    Marian Apparitions...

    For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. 14And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. 15Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end...

    Jesus Paid for Our Sins. Therefore, We Can Sin?

    I think what a lot of Christians think about sinning is a bit skewed. We MUST be born of the Spirit or we are out of touch with God, once we are born of the Spirit our spirit no longer sins and it can't sin. Now sin resides in our sinful body of death. Which is why we are to walk after the...

    why I believe in the Eucharist

    Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? 68Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. Notice Peter says, thou hast the words of eternal life. " and not the flesh of eternal life, because they understood that He was talking about...

    why I believe in the Eucharist

    Who is Jesus? Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe...

    justified by faith

    While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. 45And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. 46For they heard them speak with...

    Do these verses prove predestination?

    No, TRUE Being "predestined" means God already knows the out come of our lives, you don't He does. So anyone at any time can be one of the predestined through faith. If you couldn't then why bother telling anyone the gospel?

    Do these verses prove predestination?

    When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: 32And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: 33And he shall set the...

    Do these verses prove predestination?

    Anyone at any time can become one of the predestined all you have to do is accept the message of the gospel. All people are on Gods S*** list, not because of anything they did or do but because they are separated, cut off from Him. Everyone is born a child of Satan and has a sin nature. Untill...

    OSAS and 1 Timothy 3

    Being a follower of Jesus I find it puzzling that another follower would question if a person could loose their salvation. Is God stupid or not sure who should be saved, so He'll just save anyone then, if it doesn't work out He'll un -save them. If you use all of scripture instead of a few...
