scriptures

  1. Pick your side. Take your stand.

    This "battle" has been going on since Genesis. Let me show it to you. Its this..: "The Error of Cain". Its explained in Jude 1. And its explained more fully in Galatians 1:8. Its this..: "The Error of Cain" Its this.... Cain brought his WORKS to try and make God accept him, and God said...
  2. The Living Word & the Communicated Word.

    The Symbiotic Relationship Between The Living Word, & the Communicated Word: Christ is good (John 10:11, John 10:14), and the word is good (1 Kings 2:42). Christ is the truth (John 14:6), and the word is the truth (John 17:17). Christ is called Faithful and True (Revelation 19:11), and...
  3. What a Beautiful Name

  4. How to know if you are trying to Save Yourself.

    Reader, Lets Say that Jesus will appear to you in your bedroom tonight, and asks you...."Are you trusting in ME Alone, To get you into Heaven"? And you say...."well, Lord, there are those verses In Hebrews Ch 4, 6, and 10......and that verse about "enduring to the end", and there is that...
  5. A (now-relevant) question on 1 Corinthians 10:17

    I've come across a question that carries with it present significance during the coronavirus pandemic: 1 Corinthians 10:17 says, "Since there is one bread, we who are many are one body; for we all partake of the one bread" (NASB). Is this "one body" the universal church (all Christians...
  6. Faith in the living, resurrected Word (while the scriptures are only 50% historically accurate).

    This post is primarily for those who believe the scriptures (original documents) are an inerrant, perfect representation of historical events. Of course, anyone may comment. (This post may need to be moved, but I figured the topic would be controversial for some so I placed it here). Let's...
  7. O

    The prodigal son. Part 1

    "...there arose a severe famine in the land, and he began to be in want." (Lk 15:14) The core purpose of prophecies/parables is that of preparedness at all times for challenges that one would need endure/imminent return of Christ. Sadly, the prophecy in Amos 8:11 > Eze 7:26; Hos 5: 6 highlights...
  8. O

    "Guilty or Innocent". (Heb 4:12; Dan 6:21-22; Acts 24:16)

    "real-time" is the "applications in which the computer must respond as rapidly as required by the user...." The word of God is a discerner of the thoughts/intents of the heart. As such , when reading it, like a cross- court room examination, it's application in our lives must be in "real-time"...
  9. Beware Of False Prophets

    Most have heard the expression “beware of false prophets” and yet I wonder if everyone who has heard this warning really understands what it means. Jesus said, “Beware of false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves” (Matthew 7:15). Since the time...
  10. How To Prepare Yourself To Share The Gospel With Others

    There are countless opinions on how to prepare yourself to share the gospel or good news of Jesus Christ with others. Some believe we must strive to create a strong charismatic persona that will help us to become appealing to those we wish to engage. Others believe we need to pack a whole lot of...
  11. Rightly Dividing The Word Of Truth

    You have probably heard the expression that we must rightly divide the word of God, but have you ever really wondered what this means? The scriptures actually states from 2 Timothy 2:15, “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word...
  12. Walk As Jesus Walked

    As Christians, it is essential we live our lives according to the teachings of Jesus in order to walk as He walked. "Whoever claims to abide in Him must walk as Jesus walked." (1 John 2:6). Disappointingly, over the years I have been surprised by just how many who claim to be Christians, many...
  13. Zechariah ...Life as a Play , Earth the Stage!!!

    My grandson is in a play this weekend , he loves the theater. I was never in a play but admire the gift of acting . I admire those that have many lines to remember and do . In Montana we raised a niece that loved theater and won state. All those years we saw all that goes into opening night and...
  14. Let Us Not Be Like the Demons (James 2:18-19)

    "Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do. You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that––and shudder." How many of us believe in the one true God and yet do nothing to demonstrate to others that we indeed believe in God? Our works of...

  16. LGBT- what scriptures do you have?

    I am looking for scriptures that specifically say that a woman or a man cannot love a person of the same gender. Not ones stating that a man CAN love a woman or related messages. I want ones saying they can or cannot love the same sex. Thanks!
  17. Potential error in interpretation of Sheep and Goats parable

    I've been encountering what I believe is the most popular interpretation of the Sheep and Goats parable. This states that the Sheep are the believers and the Goats, the non-believers. I am convinced that this interpretation is incorrect. Here's my reasoning. In the parable, Christ has gathered...
  18. Do you believe the earth is only 6000 years old ?

    I would like to know what scriptural evidence you have to support the young earth doctrine being taught to so many christians. Please provide verses from the scriptures in the Bible to support this belief. If you believe the earth is much older, then offer evidence from other sources to back up...
