    On Petrine Doctrine

    I apologize ahead of time for digressing from the topic at hand. I get really tired of hearing that number thrown around. The way Catholics hypocritically love to use that number that is provided by the source it is derived from (World Christian Encyclopedia)as a beating stick...

    Creating a New Nation! The New C.S.A. (2)

    I have not read the entire thread or the previous one...way too many posts. I only have to comment that ShieldOfFFaith seems to never heard of Two Kingdoms theology, or if the poster has, then has not thought about it much...

    Apostasy?

    No and yes... No, because the Spirit will work on us before we are granted the gift of salvation to get us to come to Christ. Yes, because the Spirit does not indwell us until after we are saved.

    Apostasy?

    I am not sure..I would have to decide whether each and every Non-Denom church lines up on a church by church basis...

    Apostasy?

    By religions do you mean denominations of Christianity or actual religions? I am going to assume to former, but please correct me if I am misinterpreting you. Well, personally, I would say that most Protestant Churches (like Baptists, Lutherans, Methodists, Presbyterians...I am sure you get...

    Apostasy?

    But this is exactly where we come up to a brick wall..Jesus himself spelled out which doctrines are essential to salvation in His Word..believe in Christ and you will be saved...simple as that. Though I will not say that there are things that God commands his followers to do, but they do not do...

    Apostasy?

    Ummm... last I heard the Catholic Church at Vatican II (and in the past as well) has stated that Protestants and many other Churches that are not directly connected to them are not apostates. They consider themselves to be the Church that God granted authority over the Church (including...

    Homosexuality in the Bible

    Ok, I follow you so far, but I think that you go too far with the accusations you make. Lets see..there are basic advisory statement, moral statements, and cleanliness statements in the "Holiness Code" in Leviticus... I will take your provided verses point by point here to show that you...

    Apostasy?

    Yet you seem to ignore the fact that even the LDS Church has fallen prey to this exact same thing, bringing about at least one major offshoot (RLDS) and more than a few minor offshoots, and all of these in just a short span of less than 200 years. Check your premises...if we must assume...

    A jewish vision of God

    Stillsmallvoice, I am a bit befuddled by your statement on the transcendent nature of God. By definition, to be truly transcendent, God would have to be utterly unknowable, as such we could know nothing about Him, other than, possibly, Its existence. How can God be both transcendent and...

    LDS/Mormonism

    I do believe there is to be a structure of sorts, but the structure includes all those who hold true to a belief that there is only One God composed of The Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost (period that is all there is), Jesus is the son of God (not in the way the Mormonism proports though)...

    LDS/Mormonism

    How about 1 Peter 3:15- But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear According to the above verse, you are supposed to have an answer for the reason you have faith to give...

    LDS/Mormonism

    If so, then prove it...show, for a fact with scripture, that you are the only ones that can be right. Your statement is no better than a person just simply stating you are wrong and are not Christian. You better wash your hands then, because merely stating it is not a bash does not make it so...
