    Preterists: Where is the Tree of Life?

    Not to speak for a full Preterist, but I think they might say that Jesus came in Judgment of his people (Jews) and not in an end of the age kind of comming....... Maybe this is a partial preterist.......I know some one will correct me.

    Can God really change his mind?

    You must understand the term "repent" . It can mean to pity or just to turn in another direction. Look at these verses Jonah 3:10 10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not...

    Believe

    Believe is related to these words but not quite the same: Hope, faith, assurance, trust. Truelight mentioned the demons and this make a good point. James 2:19 19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. (KJV) Why do they tremble?.....You...

    Confused, Help Me Out Please

    Eph 2:8-10 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. (KJV) You...

    Trinity (3/1 or 3/3) look at the verses

    Amen Shane. I will add this John 10:38 38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him. (KJV) John 14:9-11 9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip...

    Trinity (3/1 or 3/3) look at the verses

    Hervey there is 8hr day and 8 hr evening and 8 hr night. God is a God of 3. We live in 3 dimensions, length, width, depth. Gen 6:10 10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (KJV) Gen 15:9 9 And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat of...

    Trinity (3/1 or 3/3) look at the verses

    John 14:28 28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. (KJV) I think this is the verse. First the all important word is "greater" (meizone) this is like a...

    The Trinity Doctrine

    We all grow as Christians. Many things are learned and revealed. When you study the Trinity and reject it, you are rejecting truth. How then can you act like it's ok not to believe. The doctrine works in every verse you'll find. I have debated this for years and have yet to see ONE verse that it...

    Forgiveness

    I find this verse interesting. 2 Sam 22:22-25 22 For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God. 23 For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them. 24 I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine...

    Does The Church (of) Jesus Christ Have A Name?

    Christi I'm with you. I am trying to understand but I get a convoluted message. Maybe it is just my lack us smarts but I don't know , Loxoco, where you are comming from or going. God does heal his people, he does talk to his people, the Bible is for us, and God takes no pleasure in destroying...

    God's Sovereignty & Man's Choice

    Yeah somthing like that. The world renown athiest Bertrand Russel wrote in one of his books (I forget which one) about just such a drawing of God's spirit. He didn't call it that but that is what it was. He said that he was looking as his newborn baby girls ear. How marvelouse it was. He started...

    The Trinity Doctrine

    TRINITY within the being and activity of the one God there are three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Although the word trinity does not appear in the Bible, the "trinitarian formula" is mentioned in the Great Commission <Matt. 28:19> and in the benediction of the apostle...

    God's Sovereignty & Man's Choice

    This is how I handle stuff like this: God has a soveriegn will and a permissive will. His permissive will- Luke 13:34 34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen doth...

    Mysteries within the Word of God

    Here's the thing Hervey. We have gone over all this before. We have answered all your verses and have shown that Jesus is God. He was subject to the father and that did not make him "not God" we have shown before that Jesus said the Father was greater than he using a military term as a General...

    Does The Church (of) Jesus Christ Have A Name?

    We are the bride of Christ to be presented spotless at the marriage supper of the Lamb. We are made spotless by the blood of Christ and not of our own righteoness. We are his workmanship. We are not to forsake the assembing of ourselves together. The New Teatament saints meet in homes. We have...

    Purpose of Life for Christians?

    Gods will for me changes from time to time. Right now I am raising 3 foster kids. This is no doubt his will for my life. I am 47 yr old I didn't want to start raising kids all over again. I am a grandpa for crying out loud. But God had other plans and now I have twin 6yr old girls and their 4 yr...

    Mysteries within the Word of God

    Hervey what is 1x1x1? That's right ..... one. How can you limit God or pretend to understand his nature. He is beyond our limited mind. Infinite intellect is just that infinite. We can only apprehend what God reveals and he does not use numerology. He reveals himself in three persons and yet...

    The Trinity Doctrine

    You have an honest heart and I applaud that. I know if you study the Trinity you will pobably accept it. I have used this analogy before and think it needs said again. Mr.A lives in a two dimensional world. Length and width. Get the picture. Now God steps into his world and reveals himself as...
