DT…….I explained to you about why God has the millennium period, and for what reason he is doing it, did that also fly over your head, do you just shut off anything written in response to you?

DT……So you believe a person can be save, by himself, remember it says…..”the soul that sins, it shall die.”, So when does this soul stop sinning? Have you reached that goal yet?
Fact is, you or no human being has completely stop sinning, we all “still” come short of that goal, why? Because in order for us to completely stop sinning, something…[Read more]GeneBalthrop replied to the topic JOHN 1:1 who is the WORD? in the forum Scriptural Teachings 2 months, 3 weeks ago
DT…….YOU SAID……God says to turn from your wickedness (repent) and you will live. I didn’t read anything about God saying HE was only going to “pick and choose” certain people that are to “live” because they “believe in HIS son.” If God doesn’t take pleasure in the death of HIS creation and told them how they can “live”, why does anyone need the Je…[Read more]
