That night two people will be asleep in one bed; one will be taken, the other left.
Thank God for the example we receive from living devils.
Ok...I smell what you are stepping in. Some believe that Jesus was literally rebuking Satan who was trying to put wicked thoughts in Peter's head. So the rebuke was not directed to Peter, but to Satan who was present.No, Yeshua was rebuking him, not calling him a devil. He was rebuking the humanistic thought that comes from satan. Not calling Peter satan in the idea that Peter WAS Satan. Note that in scripture it says that the Devil entered into Judas. Luke 22:3.
Peter was a close disciple of God, but he rejected Jesus three times. Due to fear. But also note that the Holy Spirit was not present in the disciples at this time to give them power to witness and stand in the face of persecution. Pentecost had not occured yet, so Yeshua gave Peter the opportunity to "rededicate himself" to Yeshua by declaring his love for the Son 3 times to erase the 3 denials. We as christians have the Holy Spirit in us from DAY 1 if you truly repent. Merely raising you hand while nobody looks lest you be ashamed and saying the "sinners prayer" is not repentance from your sins. You have to stop sinning and let the Holy Spirit sanctify you and reprove you and chasten you. We are not perfected, but the work of the Holy Spirit continually perfects us and seals us until the Day.
Or when you have two switches that control one light, then it could be up or down to turn thr light on.[emoji4]hahaha, yes..... Thank you and REJOICE ALWAYS !
I installed many, some up, some down, and a few sideways or pushbutton or slider up or down.
There's even some made, you just touch or put your hand close to or clap your hands together and whatever condition it's in , it changes to the next !
I'm Just going to post this verse again
Hebrews 10:26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. 28 Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. And again, “The Lord will judge His people.” 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 But recall the former days in which, after you were illuminated, you endured a great struggle with sufferings: 33 partly while you were made a spectacle both by reproaches and tribulations, and partly while you became companions of those who were so treated; 34 for you had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your goods, knowing that you have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves in heaven. 35 Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. 36 For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise:
And this one
Philippians 2:12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;
thats like saying all basket ball players are saved lol.. you cant say that .. i would never say that about pentacostals . it sisnt true .juts because they are of a certain denomination does not mean they are save and not every one who claims to be christian is saved either ..Catholics are christians. They believe the gospel too. They believe that Jesus saves. Althought I think they add to the salvation process (which i do not agree), but they are saved nonetheless.

NO .. her not fully understood opinion was revealed and her momentary annoyance was revealed ..like mine is being now .. but her character was not revealed and certainly not up for judgmentYep... her true nature is revealed and it doesn't look or smell christian-like.
My experience with both sides is quite different - those who don't believe things contrary to Scripture take care to honor YHWH and guard Scripture and "work out their salvation (the way YHWH means this) with fear (the way YHWH means this) and trembling" We TREMBLE AT YHWH'S WORD , in JOYOUS RAMBUNCTIOUS EXTRAVAGANT GENEROUS WITHOUT MEASURE FREEDOM IN Y'SHUA and a totally clean conscience (no part nor present sins nor thoughts of sinning any more) ;
while those who don't care about their sin, not a clean conscience but a seared one, or a dead one, decided to keep on sinning and believe what they were told - "don't worry about sinning".
And so, they don't worry; no, not at all. And they don't turn to YHWH (repent).
Often, instead, they boast.
Oh well.
I don't agree. The whole concept of eternal security or OSAS wasn't even a doctrine until the mid 16th century by John Calvin and for good reason. The Catholic Church in the 4th century did not believe it. The EO Church in the 11th century did not believe it. The early reformation and Martin Luthor did not believe it. It wasn't until John Calvin's doctrine on the predestination of the elect that OSAS became a thing. So why did it take over 1500 years for people to get it(OSAS) right?
Interesting. Are you really saying that you never had people who obeyed God with their lips, but were far away from Him in their hearts (Isaiah 29:13 & Matthew 15:8)? And that you had no-one who was sexually immoral, an idolator or who were perjurers / liars etc (1 Corinthians 6:9, 1 Timothy 1:10 & Revelation 21:8). My church has these. These are people who say that morality changes and therefore we don't need to follow Jesus' commands any more. Is it possible to be in a church and not have these? The Early Church certainly had them. And we were such as these.In my years as a pastor I never experienced that atll. Maybe we minister to different peoples.

No problem. Context is hard to read sometimes.Did I say they don't? I'm sorry if I insinuated that.

Now to be fair.. Some would say that osas is a doctrine of devils.Don't warn me when I was speaking of scriptures. I suggest you take a moment and learn the Bible before personally attacking me again and violating the rules here to that end.
Doctrines of devils is scripture sir.
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
1Timothy 4:1
1 John 4:1-3
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already.
Revelation 20:2-5
And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he might not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be released for a little while. Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection.
It was a general comment. I guess i probably should have said was, "just because someone is Catholic, doesn't mean their not Christian".thats like saying all basket ball players are saved lol.. you cant say that .. i would never say that about pentacostals . it sisnt true .juts because they are of a certain denomination does not mean they are save and not every one who claims to be christian is saved either ..
and one thing that displays a person is not saved is their lack of obedience .you can say your a follower of clinton all you like for example .. but if you vote for trump .. well i guess your not . so it is with faith , you can say your a follower of Jesus ,but if you follow after sin at the same time ,or follow a man made organisation ,or a man made office (which includesidolatries) then ..i guess your not .. its not ones words but ones action which displays that old proof pudding
I can see how my comment could be seen as a personal attack. So that is my fault and I apologize. I was in no way trying to tell Vanillasunflower that she was not a Christian. I was sarcasticly saying that her behavior was unbecomming as a christian. If that makes sense. Either way, I apologize for the way it came across.NO .. her not fully understood opinion was revealed and her momentary annoyance was revealed ..like mine is being now .. but her character was not revealed and certainly not up for judgment
