Nick…..i was in the WWCG and i never heard them say there was a second chance salvation. They taught that the world was basically blinded by false religions and they never had a first chance yet. But they taught that if your eyes were opened and you understood, you would be judged and if you failed you would be burned up. Is it wise to say…[Read more]

Chosenone……….AMEN Brother………as our sister Jodi would say you nailed it.love and peace to you and yours…………………gene

To All…..”and God confirmed their (WORDS) BY the SIGNS that FOLLOWED THEM. Notice the word were not enough it took signs also, that is true in our life's also. We are not just living by proofs God gave them back in the time of Jesus and the Apostles, but by the (PROOFS) he give US in our lives NOW. Without these proof we can not have true…[Read more]

Ken…….Amen to that post.peace……….gene

ep…..sorry you have got your feelings hurt, but i see you explanation as more explaining what Faith does not what it is, except the part about it being (REALITY) to me thats what Faith is the (REALITY) given by (REAL PROOF) and if you don't have that you simply have supposition. Or why do you think Jesus said when the son of man comes WILL HE…[Read more]

942767…..Faith is not the (evidence), it is the result of the evidence. Faith and evidence can not be separated. The Hebrew definition defines what faith is, This Faith is what makes the substance of Hope of things hoped for, as Not3in1 said. I would not say Faith is Hope but it certainly give us Hope. If we look at the men mentioned in the…[Read more]

Nick….The magicians of Pharaoh used tricks not actual miracles. Much like our magicians do today, there all tricks. The words of life were given by men who had their own (REAL) Proofs not suppositions of other men. Anyone can quote words written in a book , that is no proof of true FAITH. imo

Nick…..if you think the word sight here has anything to do with insight you are totally wrong. The sight here is implying what you see in the world. Hearing Gods words does not give you faith in GOD, as i showed you in the rest of the scripture you took out of context. The proof of GOD existence in your life does give Faith. Do you think any of…[Read more]

Tim and Chosenone……….As our sister Jodi would say you both nailed it. This whole thing about free will is very important to understand because it shows who is really in charge of everything. And if properly understood can give great peace to a person. You simply have to believe ” by GRACE (God's influencing on you heart) are you (saved) and…[Read more]

Nick…I don't know if it was in earlier manuscripts or not, i only know these things have happened in my life, and i am willing to bet anyone who God is working with had them happen in their lives also. God is not a God of suppositions, but a God of PROOF. I have started a post on WORD'S and Faith is the first word in the discussions lets take…[Read more]

Ken…..All you explained is good for explaining what faith (produces) but my question is what (IS) Faith, and you failed to produce any explanation of the word (evidence) found in the Hebrew definition, (faith is the evidence of things no seen). Would Paul have preached the Gospel had he never encountered the light and blindness and heard the…[Read more]

Nick…..Show us where any Demon as you say saved a sick or dying person ever. Maybe you don't count miracles as proofs, but i do and i think Jesus and Abraham did also as well as the Apostles and Disciples, or do you think God does them for no reason at all, then why do them then? Miracles were very much the sign of God being with them. Do you…[Read more]

WM……God gave you tangible proof or evidence in the past or you would not have Faith now. He showed you his true existence in the past and you now believe and trust in Him. This is not just some ones words , but your own experience. I agree with that.love and peace to you and yours……………..gene

Nick….you are taking the scripture out of context, first the word cometh was added and is not in the original and lets not leave out Rom 10:19 But I say have they not Heard?, yes verily, their sound went into (all) the earth and their words unto the ends of the earth. So then according to your logic the the whole world has faith right. Rom 10:20…[Read more]

E………I can only tell you this I personnel do not believe in the Trinity or Preexistences at all and have taught against them both. I can also say I have had Many Miracles and proofs of God in my life Hundreds of them, now why would God do that seeing I denounce the TRINITY and preexistences of Jesus openly. Wouldn't that be blasphemy against…[Read more]

Nick…..while the grace of God can and does give us a Godly heart, it is not what faith is (Faith is the substance of things Hoped for), and also or brought about by, (the (EVIDENCE) of things not seen). God can not be seen “For no man has seen God at any time”, But as i said we can see His hand in our lives, through answered prayer and signs and…[Read more]

pulivarthy……….to me young women in Israel were in most cases considered virgins, because they were very strict and there was not all this dating and loose living going on, as we have today. imopeace to you and yours…………….gene

Nick….No, Faith is the result of evidence, evidence is what gives us our faith, otherwise we just have suppositions. True faith can not be had without true evidence. You can not believe their is a GOD without proof, God must give us this proof or how can he ask us to believe. The story of the unjust Judge shows this point. Jesus compared God to…[Read more]

Nick……..remember Jesus said , will the son of man find faith on the earth when he comes, why do you think he said that. peace………gene

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 25 2008,05:29)Hi GB,If Faith requires proof then that proof is 'seen'.Faith is the evdence of things NOT SEEN.Blessed are those who have not seen but believe.We walk by faith and not by sight.You need to believe all Jesus said because we no one else to go to, not because we understand. Those who could not understand his…[Read more]
