tomder55,
Read that carefully. If you have two sources, native born and through immigration, and one (immigration) does not change, then as the native born decreases, the percentage of those with...
-
With respect to TB, this not because of any invasion. Your numbers as far as percentage is correct but it is misleading as show on this slide. The numbers of incoming cases of TB has not changed in...
-
Good suggestions.
There are also many that do not. The difference from what I have seen is fair and reasonable rules, and fair and consistent enforcement regardless of who the person is and...

I agree with you that grieving the Holy Spirit does not mean that we have fallen away from being saved. But can one fall away from being saved?
Heb 6:4-6
4 For it is impossible for those who were...
-
Let me add this. The word tasted is geuomai, which according to Strong's means:
a primary verb; to taste; by implication, to eat; figuratively, to experience (good or ill):
The word...
-
But He was really dead and came back to life.
Just like those who taste of the Holy Spirit. Really saved and then cease to be. They tasted of the Holy Spirit just like Jesus tasted of death.

Jesus said why he spoke in parables:
Mark 4:10-12
11 And He said to them, "To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in...
-
Just like Jesus only "tasted" death on the cross?
Heb 2:8-9
9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by...
-
There is too much evidence to the contrary to believe that.
Yes you do, and God has the right to dictate what you must do to be saved.
-
I agree that it is hard to comprehend, but I also find it equally hard to comprehend why the majority of mankind rejects Him in the first place. I cannot comprehend how Peter could deny the Lord...
-
Psalm 139 says that we can never leave the presence of God, even if we make our bed in hell. He proved that by coming to earth in the flesh to die on the cross for our sins, for those who were in...
-
He will never leave us - but that does not mean that no one ever leaves Him.
-
Scripture is clear that is is possible to walk away from (reject) salvation, but not to return.
Heb 6:4-7
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly...
-
Different topic - I agree that you cannot inadvertently l;ose your salvation, but you can subsequently choose to reject it.
Now you'll find out where ClassyT and I disagree ;)

Sndbay,
I for one am not sure what you are thinking of with one being "less of a Christian". One cannot be partially saved, or have enough salvation to get halfway to heaven and be stuck. One is...

Here is a relevant news article that appeared this morning:
Homosexuality to Heterosexuality: Can the Transition Be Made? - Health - Israel News - Israel National News
-
No, it doesn't.
When we come to Christ, we come with whatever failings and whatever sins that we have, and we take them to the cross, and it is His righteousness that is imputed to us. But just as...
-
The only one that I saw you give is:
""Go ye therefore...baptize all nations." (Babies are part of "all nations.")"
That does not command babies to be baptized, or if you assume that, it would...
-
-
Where I suspect that she and I differ is on what the meaning is of a baby baptism. I do not see any significance given to it in scripture. I would therefore see it being like a dedication. I...
-
Sorry I meant that requires you to be baptized to be saved.
-
The context is baptism - nothing that requires you to be baptized to be saved.
-
Good point.
Agreed. There is nothing in scripture which requires that you to be saved. We are commended to be baptized as adults, so it is an act of obedience, but there is nothing telling us...
-
I have never said, nor do I believe that anyone but Jesus pays the price for sins.
-
I stand by what my posts says
No, it is exactly the right analogy because all men have rejected God by sinning (Rom 3:23), and God calls them to return, desires that they return and God paid the...
-
Then you don't agree with this passage?
Acts 15:17
17 So that the rest of mankind may seek the LORD,
Even all the Gentiles who are called by My name,
Says the LORD who does all these things.' ...
-
Perhaps you should read the prodigal son story again. Show me where the father sent the police out to drag the son home and force him to stay home.
I missed that.
Seems to me that he decided to...
-
No, it is exactly the right analogy because all men have rejected God by sinning (Rom 3:23), and God calls them to return, desires that they return and God paid the price for their sins so that the...
-
Right the minority think that, and that is because God said it is true:
Luke 13:23-28
23 Then one said to Him, "Lord, are there few who are saved?" And He said to them, 24 Strive to enter through...
-
So, if your son was an adult, and you wanted him to move in with you, ylou'd force him to do so whether he wanted to or not?
Go never abandoned us. He came to earth in the flesh so that we could...
-
Seems to me that you altered / added some words there to make it appear that God made them to be gods. It is dangerous to alter God's word. God does not even imply that He exaclted them to be gods,...
-
Read the context.
Mark 12:18-27
18 Then some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him; and they asked Him, saying: 19 "Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies,...
-
If you were to deny the trinity it would. That is why the doctrine of the trinity as described in scripture is important.
-
He is God over everything, whether they be false gods, leaders, those who think themselves high and mighty or anything and anyone else.
If you say that the other gods are not false gods, then you...
-
I think that you made a good point there. I find often that when someone disagrees with what a person believes, they seem not to differentiate between beliefs and the person themselves and assume...
-
You will note that in almost all cases where this occurs, it is because someone has chosen to stop discussing the topic respectfully and has issued demeaning / abusive comments at one or more...
-
Agreed. I would personally welcome anyone of any belief, but I think that they if come to the Christianity forums, they must at least be respectful of Christians. If they come on here because they...
-
Adam,
Clearly they failed to understand that they were blaspheming or otherwise they would not be condemning Jesus, who was God in the flesh for calling Himself the Son of God.
Jesus was...
-
Not accurate![/QUOTE]
Adam,
Your saying so does not make it so. I would challenge anyone to check out what scripture actually say in this regard. Check out John 1:26 through to John 10:35....
-
Right - experts.
I am not trying to change her mind. I don't try to change anyone's mind. All I can do is present the facts. Whether one's mind is changed depends more upon whether they are...
-
You need to study the historic record, ancient documents, speak to historians and archeologists, and to experts in the Bible.
Right. :D :p
-
1) Actually, no. I don't know if you missed what was being discussed, but it whether there is evidence for the truth of the Bible being God's word. Such evidence from from internal sources, external...
-
Agreed that people should respect opinions of others, and be respectful and polite.
We should not insist that people "accept" the beliefs of others. That by definition would not be respecting...
-
Stop posting attacks on others.
Please do
-
Here we go again...
There is a difference between "questioning what Christians believe", and asking for a clarification on what the Bible teaches.
I have seen very few people telling...
-
We've been through that before. There is overwhelming evidence that it is in fact the word of God, but I guess that I would ask why, if you so dislike Christianity, do you post in the Christianity...
-
It is up to God - you are right.
Unfortunately, many people don't like what God has said in His word, the Bible.
-
If that is what she believes about her god, that is fine - if she is making that accusation about the God of the Bible, then that is a different issue.
