To rob someone you would have to cut off their hand.
Did you know they can be tracked by satellite so the governments of the world would know exactly where every single person is?
It was a Calvinist who almost destroyed my faith. But God answered my prayer and showed me the right way.
What teaching exactly almost destroyed your faith, the one being discussed? I'm the worst at getting my faith destroyed, then coming back after feeling like I've finally answered an objection. Actually 'Faith' in general has always been my major weakness. I have been infuriated many times throughout the years that you can't completely reason your way to belief.
However, slowly but surely through the years I started to realize something. Intellectually I had both a pile of reasons that made me believe it was true, and I had a pile of reasons to make me think it's false. What I started to realize was that if Christianity is just a bunch of made up fables from a bunch of clowns thousands of years ago, what on Earth was I doing with a pile of reasons to make me think it's true?? Because no other religion on Earth even presents 1 reason to me that makes me think that it could be true.
So I guess what I just described is the difference between faith and empty faith. Faith meaning I have some intellectual verification that I'm not a fool, but I still have to take a leap. Blind faith being a 100% intellectual leap.
So I guess I'm just curious what challenged you, I almost guarantee it also challenged me at one point lol.
Their beliefs on predestination and free will. Avoid them. Almost caused me to turn away from God.What teaching exactly almost destroyed your faith

I was very young in the Faith at the time. I know better now, having studied much.
Yes, but I am not in full agreement with their teachings. My options are limited, being that I am a Sabbath keeper.Do you currently attend church?

Sorry to hear you went through that.I could hold my homeless situation against God. It was rough trust me. Didn't really want to be there honestly. But looking back I understand why I went thru what I did.
i find that it is silly indeed.. so many people are saying to themselves no no no its the mark of the beast... well if you was so sure of that tell me how will this mark be in the hand or the forehead? naa its not going in the forehead... as much as it might hurt to say for some of you... lets give the great deceiver some credit where it is due... who is deceived about this... not many to none... the other side of this argument is even more compelling... why do more people seek to avoid the mark of the beast yet we do not desire to know the seal of god more??? would it not be easy for me to say and it be true that you COULD indeed avoid the mark of the beast and still be lukewarm? dont try and avoid the mark as much as you should be seek the seal of god.... we should know this to be truth and not opinion.
