Gene, explain to me these verses.Rev. 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, Rev 12:8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

Mandy Unless you were a builder, you would not attempt to build a house; if you are a builder, you go over the plan very carefully before you begin to build. You would not pick up a set of blueprints and without studying them first say, they are wrong. You can not say the Bible can't be trusted just because it is two thousand years old. When it…[Read more]

Why don't we ask Nicodemus John 3:8 ” The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but can not tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit. God is invisible and so is His Holy Spirit. When we are born again we receive God's Holy Spirit and only then do we understand the things of God. We…[Read more]

UNLESS THE LORD SHALL BUILD THE HOUSE1 Unless The Lord shall built a house, the weary builders built in vain. Unless the Lord the city shields, the guards maintain a useless watch. In vain ere rise morning break, and late your mighty vigil keep. And bread of anxious care partake, God gives to His beloved sleep. 2 Lo, Children are the gift…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 16 2008,08:36)Hi not3, We should become a bible. Soaking in scripture is meant to enable us to take from our store new and old things to share. Jesus, Peter and Paul did not carry a copy of any bookThere was no Book that was into a Bible, back then, only the Letters of the Apostles. It was much later when a Catholic Monks…[Read more]

ChosenoneWhen Jesus spoke those words, “you must be born again', he spoke them to Nicodemus. He was trying to explain to him what “born again” means; not just born from above.Born from above is when one receives God's Holy Spirit that gradually changes once behavior, once thinking, and attitudes.Born “again” of the “Spirit” is the first…[Read more]

942767You say the second resurrection is for all who died before Christ. By what “works” do you think they can be saved?Georg

Mandy! Since it was man that translated the Bible it is some what expected to have some errors. It has been a long time also. But as a whole I trust in the Word of God which I can find in the Bible. Where else would I go? The Korean? Whatever you read I find it interesting that you made the circle around and are back. I know that I am save under…[Read more]

GeneI'm not sure but I think you could have said all of that by just saying; I agree!Georg

Well explained Gene.Georg

AdamJesus said, if I go not to the Father He can not send you the Holy Spirit, comforter. Jesus had to first present himself as OUR sin offering, sacrifice, only after the Father excepted Christs sacrifice did He forgive us of our sins; and so made it possible to send us his Holy Spirit. God does not dwell in sinful men.There is only one Holy…[Read more]
