    Is mental illness spiritual warfare?

    I think the flaw comes in the “all or nothing” nature of the position. Is ALL mental illness the result of demonic or spiritual forces? No, I don’t think we can say that. Is NO mental illness the result of demonic or spiritual forces? No, I don’t think we can say that, either. So what does...

    Hospitals suspend sex-change surgeries, puberty blockers for kids after Trump's order

    Hooray!!!!!!! Let adults mutilate themselves rather than mutilating their children for an ideology.

    Is baptism required before a person can receive communion?

    Communion is about "fellowship" with a local body of believers. They have a God given command to "not eat and drink in an unworthy manner". That's pretty vague, isn't it? And yet, the "overseers" (deacon, elder, pastor, shepherd, father, reverend ... whatever term they assign locally) will be...

    WHAT IS EPH 4:11 REALLY SAYING TO BELIEVERS TODAY ?

    All those necessary for the formation, growth and health of The Church (Christ’s body on the earth in general, and the local gathering of believers in particular) will be provided by God and empowered to do the WORK that God requires FOR His body by the Holy Spirit. Apostles testified to the...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    Nope ... When Jesus was asked what was the Greatest Commandment, he responded with a quote that was NOT from the Ten Commandments. The "Shema" (Deuteronomy 6:4-5) is not the 10 commandments. It was not part of the words written on the stone tablets. I am surprised that you don't know that...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    Just FYI … Leviticus 19:18 'You shall not take vengeance, nor hold any grudge against the sons of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself; I am the LORD. Jesus point was that the WHOLE LAW counted, not just the 10 bullet points written on two stone tablets. The “Greatest...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    The part where it says “He was without sin”. Being without sin means (by definition) that Jesus violated NO LAWS. If Jesus violated any law, that would be a sin and we are still damned (sacrifice was invalid). Did you read James 2:10? It says that it doesn’t matter which law you violate … it...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    Hebrews 4:15 Now it is your turn to provide the scripture that says Jesus violated the menstruating laws. Those really are the only two options, right. You obeyed the Law or you violated the law. James 2:10 [NKJV] For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    OF COURSE JESUS OBSERVED THE SABBATH!!! Jesus observed all 613 laws PERFECTLY. That is what made HIM the sinless sacrifice. What about the OT verse that says you must keep THE WHOLE LAW? What about the NT verse that says if you fail on just one point, you stand guilty of the WHOLE LAW...

    The Ten Commandments are all reiterated in the New Testament

    FACT CHECK: The Fourth Commandment Exodus 20:8-11 "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. For six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of the LORD your God; on it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male slave or your...

    Who Decides - God or Us?

    I offered advice on hermeneutics (how to generally understand what is written) to which you responded by complaining that I had provided no SCRIPTURE that explained the correct way to read SCRIPTURE. pick any text book of your choosing and quote the part that explains “How to correctly...

    Who Decides - God or Us?

    How much of the NT was written when Jesus said the words that he said and spoke about the 12 tribes? (you will need to use the Scripture that Jesus used)

    Those before Christ was born how were they saved?

    Faith ... just like US. Faith in God. Faith that God would save you. This is POST MOSES in your example, so you have THIS story to teach you: Numbers 21:4-9 [NLT] Then the people of Israel set out from Mount Hor, taking the road to the Red Sea to go around the land of Edom. But the people...

    Baptists (and others)-- Wives submit to husbands? Wives and husbands equal partners?

    I am confused by this topic. If a wife wishes to "do as she pleases and not answer to any man", then why not just remain single? Then there is no HUSBAND to be required to submit to. If a man simply desires a female that he can order to cook and clean, he could hire a housekeeper. If this is...

    Baptists (and others)-- Wives submit to husbands? Wives and husbands equal partners?

    Yes, to both. Are the quarterback and receiver equal players on a Football Team?YES. Do ALL the members of the team obey the quarterback when he calls the play that they will run? YES. So the players are all equal and the quarterback has a role that places him in a position of authority that...
