    Luke 14 ??

    Verse 26 seems to contradict the main teaching of the Bible as we should love our neighbor as ourselves. yet he is telling us if we don't hate are mother and father we can not be his disciple. I think maybe the true meaning was lost in the translation perhaps, would love to hear other comments...

    J. Vernon McGee taught cheap grace

    Romans 10:9 Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Vern also teaches no repentance is needed which I completely disagree with. I listened to him for a long time and got lots from him, but I have...

    God makes no distinction between Jew and greek, why do so many scholars like to ?

    in what way would he make a distinction, I am of curse assuming you think he did . Did he not punish them for sin, as he does with all people? the only distinction we should focus on, the only two people groups in the bible are sinners who do not repent or seek God, sinners that repent and seek...

    Jesus came to fulfil the Torah and the Law will Pass away on a certain Date.

    What do you think about this verse Matthew 5:18 For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished. Also, Jesus taught the law differently than the ways the Pharisees taught the law in several cases, I think Jesus...

    Are Jews still God's Chosen People ?

    Comparing Jews to the church like I hear so many do does not make sense at all to me. Some like to accuse people of replacement theology, where they claim people are saying the church replaced God's people the Jews. Yet comparing the two is like apples to oranges, like comparing the dead to the...

    Are Jews still God's Chosen People ?

    yeap seems God is not through with the Jews.. The way I see it is the Jews are his earthly flesh people who Jesus came to us through. The church the born-again believer are God's eternal people. God calls us his people in the NT, I do not see any place in the NT he calls the Jews his people, but...

    The OT Law

    thanks for the well-thought-out reply, may I ask what version of the law is still relevant? What Jesus taught was much different than what Mosses taught. " An example of Jesus reveling the true law 4. The food laws that set Israel apart from the nations have been fulfilled and ended in...

    The OT Law

    Is the law still relative in God's eyes? Especially in light of Luke 16, To me, this says that John the Baptist is a time marker we can see where salvation comes into the light, and from that time forward salvation is to be preached. However, the law has not passed away or vanished. Jesus seems...

    Are the Jews still Gods people?

    In the OT God called the Jewish people his chosen people. Are they still his chosen people, he tells them in Matthew that he is going to take away the kingdom of God from them. Yet he cant be finished with them as we know he brought them back as a nation in 1948. Matthew 21:43 Therefore I tell...

    "Repent of your sins to be saved" is false, works salvation

    NO works do not save us, but they are evidence of our salvation. Someone says they are saved and have no works well the bible is clear on that. Works is proof of salvation. faith without woks is not saving faith

    "Repent of your sins to be saved" is false, works salvation

    2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. Luke 13:3 No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.

    What should you do with your millions?

    Rich towards God can mean different things IMO, but for a millionaire, I would see something like a person who gives to ministry work, orphans and widows, more than he gives to himself as far as hobbies and luxury living,,,, so basically do spend more on the kingdom or more on your luxury...

    Does Tithing reflect your level of faith?

    Give me five minutes with a person's checkbook, and I will tell you where their heart is. Billy Graham Jim Elliot's best-known quote is, “He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose.

    What is Saving Faith?

    this scripture says it better than I could, I will tell you from my personal experience once I got born again I was freed from the bondage of sin that held me captive. The key word here is practicing, we may still stumble in sin, but it should not and can not be a lifestyle of someone born again...
