    But Is It Truth?

    The NAR is the "New Apostolic Reformation" set up by C. Peter Wagner and consists of (supposedly) hundreds of apostles and prophets associated with the Vineyard (John Wimber), Kansas City "International House of Prayer" (Mike Bickle), Morningstar Church (Rick Joyner), and many other churches who...

    But Is It Truth?

    You're exaggerating with that label, so I take it that my response upset your apple cart. But being filled with the Spirit does not constitute an office of apostle or prophet. Neither the apostles nor any prophet claimed that God wanted everyone to be apostles and prophets, such that they should...

    But Is It Truth?

    Your writing in that link is a strawman argument. No one is saying that "God said..." has to be an exact quote from the Bible or else... The fact is, the canon of scripture is closed, so there cannot be any new revelation, and anyone who claims there is revelation of God which teaches new...

    But Is It Truth?

    The canon has been closed since near the end of the 1st Century. The only people who thought it wasn't started cults and all the councils condemned their teachings as unbiblical. So if you're looking for false apostles and prophets who lead people astray by deception, go look in the NAR and...

    But Is It Truth?

    If you're advocating listening to modern prophets, then I warn you, they are a dime a dozen - meaning all self-proclaimed prophets and self-proclaimed apostles are false. But the reason why people want to believe in prophets who "have a word from God" for them is because they are lazy and...

    Child sacrifice, a transgression/ God sacrifices his only begotten

    The Luther quote you cited was him talking about Christians, not unbelievers. And how do you define "holy" that excludes God's wrathful justice on sinners? It appears to me that you have some obsession with the exclusion of God's anger, as if you think if God is angry at sinners, then He is...

    Child sacrifice, a transgression/ God sacrifices his only begotten

    All this sounds nice, but to claim God is not angry "sitting on a high mountain" is a straw man. God is most certainly angry at sinners, since it clearly says, "he who does not believe will not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him." So the one who refuses to believe in Christ remains in...

    Child sacrifice, a transgression/ God sacrifices his only begotten

    "Jesus is not a human sacrifice made to God." Certainly not in the pagan sense. But how do you interpret Isa. 53 which says "He looked on his travail and was satisfied"? Would you agree that Jesus' suffering and death on the cross appeases God's wrath? Would you agree that humans are atoned for...

    Child sacrifice, a transgression/ God sacrifices his only begotten

    "viewing the Crucifixion as God sacrificing his own Son, as though this were Fred sacrificing little Freddie, is quite misleading" You're durn tootin it's misleading, and that's why atheists love that misleading analogy. Here's the diff: 1. pagan children aren't volunteering to die, but Jesus...

    Child sacrifice, a transgression/ God sacrifices his only begotten

    The substitutionary sacrifice of Christ is a means to permanent atonement for sin, and is a special work of God alone. Human sacrifice does not do any atoning work in the spiritual realm, so it is an exercise in futility. God commanded animal sacrifice for temporary atonement, in order to point...

    Do you think Pawson is a WOF teacher, and if so, why?

    A 2023 Fireside Chat by Dennis Prager

    Excellent 30m talk by Dennis Prager on: Israelies are not evil and feminism is bad. If you object to anything he says, please quote it in your reply and say why.

    This response is not only narrow minded, it's a complete disregard of everything I wrote. From now on, you're on my ignore list.

    Pastor John MacArthur

    This begs the question, what do you mean by "believe," and why do you only quote verses that seem to support your idea, but don't quote any verses that deny your idea? The fact that "believe" is not well-defined in these verses (which are taken out of context) is the same problem that the...

    Pastor John MacArthur

    So you don't believe that Jesus is the Lord of the believer? Do you think that if a person just "believes" in Jesus, but doesn't consider Him Lord that they should submit to, that person is saved regardless? (if so,) then, what about "unless you believe that I AM, you will die in your sins"...
