Odd, since God's appointed time has stretched into 2000 years already. It was "nigh", and "at hand". Or don't you recall pointing that out? The Lord stipulated that it wasn't NOW, and why it wasn't NOW. That is an important detail, you shouldn't have left out. John 18:36 Jesus...

Jesus came to die. John 18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from henc

God alone knows which of Paul's words might lead a person to believe. I just know that unbelievers need to hear that all men sin, and God paid that price for sin by dying on the cross and raising from the dead. That's why I've always found it effective to tell them the wages of sin is...

What? No one is a believer until they hear and respond to the gospel. There were probably as many unbelievers in those assemblies as there are in any other assembly. Paul admonishes people to examine themselves whether they be in the faith. So what part is it that unbelievers need to hear...

Ah, without fault obedience. I know Christ had perfect obedience.....

I know about books. I figure if someone needs it bad enough to ask, I can willingly give. So my quotes from Paul didn't speak to you about what to preach when we share the gospel of grace?

Uh....no. That's a wide wide road.

Well, I think my point was if they didn't know salvation was a free gift, then they hadn't heard Paul's gospel at all. Therefore they'd be carnal....not even a babe. I've had a couple of people who might want to borrow it. I leave it laying around for that purpose.

Yes, and that was my point. It's those "works of righteousness" by the saved person that gets burned up when we stand before the Bema seat. Whatever is not built on the foundation of Christ is mere hay and stubble. It won't be a sins of the flesh, because all our sins have already been...

Watch them closely, then. And you might get yourself a mind reader to boot. Sin is not always hard to see, so you might need to come up with some backup method for detecting false prophets.

Whatever it is they're wanting us to believe is the opposite of what is happening. We should know that by now.

And I still thank you very much for my copy.

I see it as crucial. The whole idea of Paul's gospel is getting us to see that salvation is a gift from God. When someone offers us a gift, are we to offer to pay for it, or at least offer to contribute to that gift? God forbid.....what an insult that would be. It's bad enough that people...

The KINGDOM was put on hold. Try not to twist what I've said. The Kingdom was put on hold. Sure, insisting gentiles keep the law. Meaning with very few exceptions. Look at the Jews today, if you're in doubt.

True he did not say "search the scriptures for only certain things about Christ", and that is not what I said either. Shame on you. When Paul speaks of the mysteries, he says very plainly it had never been revealed before, and when speaking of the mysteries, he never says to search the...

Only those saved by Paul's gospel can be stewards of the mysteries of God. 1 Cor. 4 1 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. 2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.

You're such a silly thing.

You have to understand how it was they "both happened". The Kingdom program from prophecy has merely been put on hold. It will continue, as prophesied, in the not too distant future. It will be in that Kingdom program that the Jews will witness to the gentiles. So, they are, indeed...

Yes people, like sheep, can easily be led astray when they lose track of their "shepherd". 1 Corinthians 4:16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. 1 Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. Philippians 3:17 Brethren, be followers together of me, and...

It's actually known as spiritual understanding. You'll need that before you can understand what is written in the Bible. Nice try, but Luke only wrote what he saw, and recorded very little of Paul's words. Have you ever read Paul's epistles? That could be. The Bible isn't clear on a lot of...
