On the subject of who and what Christ Jesus is we can read it for ourselves. Many will deny this when you repeat it, but it is a scriptural truth about Jesus Christ. You can’t go wrong by accepting what is written below.
Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did…[Read more]

@AndrewAD,
Lightenup Andrew, you sure did jump to a conclusion. . What about my post tells you whether I believe in same sex marriage or not? I am just putting the question out there because yesterday, someone that I thought was a Christian posted something on fb that was applauding the New Zealand’s parliament who just passed an equality in…[Read more]bodhitharta replied to the topic in the forum Islam 9 years, 7 months ago
When someone tells you that someone converted to their religion they often neglect to say that some have also left your religion but you are right conversions have nothing to do with the validity of the religion if so why would they speak poorly of Islam it is the fastest growing religion on the planet but if you point that out they…[Read more]

My point is this. If we make a claim about a person being a false prophet or even a true one, then we need to back it up. If we cannot or will not, we should not make the claim in the first place.
That is all I am saying. Otherwise if we do not do that, and believe people at their word each time, then we could be deceived and hurt pe…[Read more]

And I was involved in the charismatic movement for many years and I certainly don’t think Rick Joyner’s”waters” are too clear,many consider him a charlatan and false prophet and I agree.The guy is full of himself imo.But this sounds like something he’d say to prepare his gullible readers for his visions and prophetical mumbo jumbo.

Hi @AndrewAD
A good question is why God needs blood,flesh,flour,incense,or money? Is not honest trust and repentance enough? I can’t escape the fact that some verses do seem to relate this,but the religious business needs more than that.

The problem with the Pharisees is that they had self-righteousness and were the gatekeepers so to speak for men to know about God and the Law. While they were well versed in the letter of the law, they completely missed the spirit of the law. Consequently Jesus said that men who were discipled by Pharisees were worse of than before…[Read more]

Welcome back AndrewAD!
It has been a while. I don’t really remember what your Christology is, so forgive me for my lack of memory…
You don’t remember my Christology either from what you wrote in your post. Arians, although they believe in the pre-existence of the Son, they believe that there was a time when the Son ‘was not’ in…[Read more]
