    Beware wolves in sheep's clothing...

    Depart from evil, children, brothers and sisters; depart from evildoers; flee from evil--the stakes are as high as can be. Some Scripture to ponder: &nbsp;<B>Job 21:14</B> - Therefore they say unto God, <B>Depart from</B> us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways. &nbsp;<B>&nbsp...

    Beware wolves in sheep's clothing...

    Yes, that is very true, Jaye. Just because a person professes to be a Christian, it doesn't mean that he or she is. Some people in fact take their own iniquity lightly, as if it is of little consequence. Some people seem to believe they will even "get away" with their iniquity if they are...

    &nbsp;<B>Titus 1:16</B> - They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work <B>reprobate</B>.

    We are not saved because....

    Gerry, it's obvious these people will believe that they were saved,--"<SUP>21</SUP> Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. <SUP>22</SUP> Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we...

    What makes you think that you are saved?

    I would just like to say, in addition, to those who wrote that they believe they are saved because of their personal relationship with God that I know exactly what you are talking about. It is a wonderful thing to have the sense that, or realize that, God is one's constant companion. Also, I...

    What makes you think that you are saved?

    There were some very good answers--I might say even all of them were. My own answer would be that I believe I know intuitively that I am saved.

    Self-righteousness

    Lamb's Love, I did not say I was placing myself out of this group. And I do believe I was just stating a fact when I wrote, "It seems each individual thinks his or her interpretation of Scriptures is the one and only correct one, and that everyone who disagrees with him or her is necessarily...

    Self-righteousness

    It seems that everywhere I go on the Internet in Christian forums, and groups, and clubs, that there is much too much self-righteousness. It seems each individual thinks his or her interpretation of Scriptures is the one and only correct one, and that everyone who disagrees with him or her is...

    Hypothetical Situation

    I have a friend from Portugal, an immigrant from Portugal, who sometimes doesn't get his English quite right. Sometimes jokingly he likes to call people "nitwits", only with him it comes out "nickwicks". I would say the person in this "hypothetical" situation who thinks he has fallen in love...

    A Red Marble

    &nbsp; A RED MARBLE During the waning years of the depression in a small southeastern Idaho community, I used to stop by Mr. Miller's roadside stand for farm-fresh produce as the season made it available. Food and money were still extremely scarce and bartering was used...

    The devil in D.C.

    There are many mysteries in life of which we are not cognizant. It is very difficult for some people to believe that someone actually walked on water and trurned water into wine--or unto a virgin a son was born. There is only a thin line of separation between this world and other worlds...

    The devil in D.C.

    It seems that a lot of people have trouble accepting that people can be actual devils. I think that Jesus' words that I quoted proves that a human can actually be a devil. And I think that one of the realities of life is that there are devils among us.

    Just Ask

    &nbsp; Just Ask Many times we struggle with ourselves and others when we want to achieve a certain goal. However, to struggle is not the correct way we should seek to fulfill our goals or accomplish our purposes. We are told very simply in the Bible: Matthew 7: Ask, and it shall be...
