Nick, there is more to fruit then those few verses is Gl.•2 Timothy 3:15 and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.16All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in r…[Read more]

Well Nick at times it is proper to speak of your own achievements for the purpose of example. In the past year I have released a CD of original Christian music. I am about to publish a book of essays on the Christian walk. I am also publishing a Fiction Novel. I will be teaching in a Bible College this fall on Hebrew Culture. I have been involved…[Read more]

I wonder about these people that post on here day and night. I wonder how many people they have witnessed to in the past month. I wonder how many have gone to some sort of fellowship to be with other saints. I guess I should ask how many got out of their mother's basement.

I want to apologize to all of you. I should not have disturbed your little kingdom and I should not have exposed myself to the idiocy contained therein. It is becoming clear why I left this looney tunes forum in the first place. Have at it. I am out of here. Make whatever comments you want. I am moving on you can sit in your own feces for another…[Read more]

Quote (mikeboll64 @ April 25 2012,11:58)Hi Ed,When I read your post, I had to double check that it was you, and not Carmel, who posted that stuff.  I'm sort of with you on the “mind sweep” thing.  I don't believe Jesus had his past memories until the Jordan.  I believe that when he was baptized, the Spirit that came upon him filled him with the me…[Read more]

Edj I think it is strange that you come up with some “Mind Sweep” teaching. You must be confusing the Bible with a Star trek vulcan book.

The premiss of this OP was not the preexistence. It was the fruit of doctrine. If you want to believe that Christ preexisted that's fine with me. As long as you agree that the man that was born and walked on this Earth did so without any advantage in power, knowledge or source of God then we have. If you do not believe this then to what ever…[Read more]

Romans 15:4 For whatever was thus written in former days was written for our instruction, that by endurance and the encouragement from the Scriptures we might hold fast to and cherish hope. How does the doctrine in question instruct or foster encouragement and hope? 2 Timothy 3:15 and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which…[Read more]

t8, it is a matter of opinion as to what would be more of a sacrifice an eternal son becoming a man (A very sketchy possibility) Or The man Christ begotten in Mary's womb. The first produces a lot of mysteries and unanswered questions. What happened to the memories and experiences from this prior life? Did Christ have them in his Earthly life and…[Read more]

I know when I post this that those stuck in what I am about to discuss will try to twist it to their system. I post it for the one or two on here that might still be capable of discernment.On this forum I received this reply when I ask how his doctrine helped me to become like Christ. “As for me, I will believe the scriptures whether or not I t…[Read more]

Gene, When I saw this post by Mike, I should have left then. “Suit yourself Martian. As for me, I will believe the scriptures whether or not I think they make it more possible for me to be like Jesus.” This is so typical of the lost wandering souls that have no concept of the plan of God. They may have stumbled into salvation but have fallen…[Read more]

MB just not in the mood to cast my pearls before the swine. That be you sir. You people have not grown or accomplished anything in the many months I have been gone. Stuck in death and loving it. It was a major waste of time getting back on here. I am out of this trap!

Quote (mikeboll64 @ April 22 2012,08:57)Martian,Your last post only reinforces my first comment on this thread:  You wish to place Jesus where you WANT him to be (despite what the scriptures actually teach), for your own selfish reasons.  Because it makes YOU feel more empowered if Jesus was nothing but “exactly like the rest of us”, you will t…[Read more]
