We are told to not forsake the assembly of ourselves together. To a small extent I believe we fulfill this by coming together on this site but I still believe we should come together with other believers within our town. So even though I do not fully agree with any of the “churches” in my area, I still attend weekly.I usually do not jump to…[Read more]

For my part I attend a local assembly that best fits my beliefs but, there are some fairly major differences between their doctrine and what I believe. I believe that a local “church” is defined by God as a locality (a region). In other words all true believers within my town make up the church. It is not any “denomination” as I believe but that…[Read more]

Quote (OneoftheLordsGenerals @ Mar. 16 2006,18:38)I have not allowed emotion to control, nor have i been ingrained to believe such. I don't care what day it was, i am happy that it happened. In Matthew 12:40 I see what you are saying, although in Matthew 16:21 it says on the third day. So does that mean that there is a contradiction in the Word of…[Read more]

Someone asked “where in scriptures does God do away with the commandments”, I would ask where in the scriptures, as a gentile, am I directed to follow the ten commandments? Please read on before you stone me.Ephesians 2:15by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out…[Read more]

It was this topic which first drove me to search for the truth beyond the official doctrine. For me it was just so inconsistent with the character of God. Not that there wouldn't be a punishment, the scriptures are clear on that, But that gramma (or any other soul), would be tortured eternally, (even for refusing the greatest gift) seemed cruel…[Read more]

I believe that the Law was fulfilled by Jesus taking the punishment that the law demands. and just like Abram, it is now through faith (of course we know that the Law always was incapable of saving anyone) that we believe unto salvation. It is through the Spirit we receive, that God gives us the desire to be obedient, and true obedience is found…[Read more]

I was talking to my wife this morning how amazing it is that everyone keeps teaching Friday when even I could see it was plainly written and it had to be Wednesday. But then I remember that I read the Bible through many times over many years and eventhough I would puzzle at the 3 days, 3 nights, I assumed people smarter then me understood it and…[Read more]
