    Our Gift Is For The Edification Of The Body. Our Edification Is Found In The Body, And The Gifts Of Others

    First Corinthians Twelve: 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all. When Timothy was told to stir up the gift given to him by laying on of hands, he was going from traveling with Paul on apostolic missions to Pastoral Responsibilities. I cannot imagine...

    Seventh Seal, 7 angels w/ 7 Trumpets; Plus One!

    Revelation Eight: 1 When He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets. 3 Then another angel, having a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much...

    Where Envy And Strife Lead

    James Three: 13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. 14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. 15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but...

    Only Three Are Tormented Eternally

    I was not expressing a problem with translation, just the way some people comprehend. Our minds are geared towards time, which will no longer be, and will surely require an adjustment. I am just trying to make that adjustment in the imagination available with the mind of Christ. Where eternal...

    Only Three Are Tormented Eternally

    My understanding by grammar is that "everlasting", as it is also translated, is describing the nature of the life, not in terms of time, but essence. When I am alive in Christ, that life has no "bio-rhythm", no ups and downs. If I am not accessing that life in Christ, then I am not abiding in...

    Whatever happened to "I can do all things in Christ"?

    To say I can't do anything without Christ is essentially to say that you won't. What a strange, unrealistic attitude?! What has man done without Christ? Time to realize that you can't do anything truly meaningful without Christ informing you as to His Good, Acceptable, and Perfect Will. How can...

    WHAT DOES IT , MEAN TO BE BORN OF GOD OR TO BE BORN AGAIN ?

    Thank you for establishing your superiority in the matter. A classic example of "commending yourself". I was not aware of the infallibility of the Grace Evangelical Society. Good luck with your attitude and superiority complex.

    The Strength of Sin, and the Power of Darkness

    First Corinthians Fifteen: 54 So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” 55 “O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?” 56 The sting...

    THE QUESTION IS HOW IS ISRAEL SAVED ??

    So is Isaiah 53 speaking to Israel, period? Under what authority do you deny the Messianic nature of Isaiah 49? John 5:39 You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. Short memory eh? John 10: 14 I am the good shepherd; and I...

    WHAT DOES IT , MEAN TO BE BORN OF GOD OR TO BE BORN AGAIN ?

    If we are born again by faith in Christ, then the testimony of scripture is that does not imply baptism in the Holy Spirit. Acts 18:24 Now a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man and mighty in the Scriptures, came to Ephesus. 25 This man had been instructed in the way...

    Faith By Grace Or Grace Through Faith?

    And what is it on day two of a Christian's walk? Matthew 12:37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” James 3: 8 But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse...

    WHAT DOES IT , MEAN TO BE BORN OF GOD OR TO BE BORN AGAIN ?

    Here is one answer that I received by the Spirit and confirmed in the scriptures. To be "born from above" (the literal translation found in John 3) is only confirmed in a mature believer who is able to receive the "wisdom from above" as described in James 3. This is confirmed by Paul. 1...

    WHAT DOES IT , MEAN TO BE BORN OF GOD OR TO BE BORN AGAIN ?

    John 7: 37 On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. 38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” 39 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit...

    Faith By Grace Or Grace Through Faith?

    Yes, and in the list of what we are to "add to Faith", we see a Christian's character that must begin to manifest in our walk, lest we be found reprobates. This culminates in an "unfeigned love for the brethren". It might even make you a cry baby, as I have been called that often. The compassion...

    Faith By Grace Or Grace Through Faith?

    That difference is clearly laid out. We access "more Grace" by the now Faith available today in Christ. Not the same as hearing the Gospel and believing. It is overcoming in the face of daily trail. This Grace is clearly stated to be accessed by faith. The only possible debate is our faith? or...

    This is the key to being an overcomer, beyond belief.

    Faith By Grace Or Grace Through Faith?

    You present well the Grace of Salvation. What the OP is presenting from the apostolic doctrine is the grace for today, to walk in victory as an overcomer today. 2 Peter 1: 5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6 And to knowledge...

    Only Three Are Tormented Eternally

    Can you in all honesty point out Satan in this passage? James One: 12 Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for...

    Only Three Are Tormented Eternally

    Okay. It is called "the Cross". Is that what you mean? So the ultimate "full armor of God" that we all have been instructed to put on in the obedience of faith is God. Can't argue with that, even if it grossly oversimplifies the "point of the exercise". We are instructed to "put on Christ, and...
