    Hi DT,

    In the Parable of the sower when the seed of the Word is sown

    Some do not understand it and the evil one snatches it away.

    Some soil receives it with joy but he has no firm root in himself and he falls away.

    Some have the seed choked  by worries and the deceit of wealth and become unfruitful.

    So why do you blame the sower and the…[Read more]

    @Danny,

    Let’s say someone is teaching you how to skydive, but used words you didn’t understand, left out life saving instructions, wouldn’t answer questions in the simplest manner, and when it came time for the real jump told you good luck and shoved you out the door? Your view of this instructor would be positive or negative?

    Now explain Jesus…[Read more]

    the Seed is the Word of God.

    And the one on whom seed was sown on the good soil, this is the man who hears the Word and understands it; who bears good fruit and brings forth, some a hundredfold, some sixty and some thirty.

    So the response to the gospel defines the future of a man.

    For this reason the wisdom of God said

    ”I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of the they will kill and some they will persecute, so that the blood of all the prophets since the foundation of the world, hay be charged against this generation, from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the h…[Read more]

    Hi DT,

    ZERO SENSE?

    Where was the wisdom of God said to meet the HUMAN SENSE requirement??

    @desiretruth

    Hi desiretruth,

    You said to Gene: You keep telling me by rejecting Jesus I have rejected God; this makes zero sense when my focus is toward God, how can I be rejecting HIM?

    Me: Very simple because Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
    John 5:23 He that honors not the Son honors not the Father which has sent him.

    @Gene,

    Then I propose the question to you again; but this time take a moment and answer it.

    What does the OT say about the Messiah; who will he be and what will he do when he arrives, does this match the Messiah of the NT? Is the Jewish Messiah the same as the Christian Messiah?

    You keep telling me by rejecting Jesus I have rejected God; this…[Read more]

    Desire Truth………Jodi has let you know what she discovered in the New and Old Testament and it’s the same thing Nick and I are telling you.  You have three witnesses telling you the same things, but you still reject it,  do you honestly think we are going to change our understanding based on a single scripture, you think proves everything written i…[Read more]

    @Jodi,

    We can continue to debate what we believe is truth and write long explanations trying to prove our side of the “truth”; but the bottom line is what does the OT say about the Messiah; who will he be and what will he do when he arrives, does this match the Messiah of the NT? If you have found a passage to support the NT Messiah in the OT,…[Read more]

    Hi Nick,

    You: Your own spirit cannot recognize the Holy Spirit.

    Yes Gene,

    For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of his resurrection, knowing this that our old self was crucified with him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would be no longer slaves to sin; for he who has died is freed from sin.

    To all, Jesus “proved”, that a man can be resurrected from the dead and live for ever ,  he said,  Rev 1:18……..> “I am  he that lives and “was dead”; and behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell (the grave) and of death”.

    Hi,

    Salvation and eternal life are on offer.

    Peace and Joy are thrown in.

    Yes the downside is that we carry the dying of Jesus in our mortal bodies. We are baptised into his death. We still die. But that is so we can share in his resurrection. Think long term guys. Hope!

    Hi Carmel,

    The Pharisees misunderstood him too and never heard the Spirit.

    It was because they had not obeyed God and been baptised by John.

    Have you not been born again either?
