Re: Miraculous healings today

Maybe that's why I confused Crochet's post with Jpbg's - because I'm no true Scotsman? I'm Scots-Irish (you get the stubborn gene with a fondness of whiskey :pound: ).

Re: Miraculous healings today

"then somewhere in his life did Not believe....." a believer does not revert back to unbelief -- the person Can't loose salvation Because the Holy Spirit does NOT leave a person. Which is why it can be said " once saved Always saved" because the Holy Spirit does NOT remove Himse...

Re: Miraculous healings today

Luke 8:13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away. And, so, WHY do they fall away: Because they "HAVE NO ROOT!" This means that the seed cast - that is, the Gospel t...

Re: 'If you could lose eternal life it wouldn't be eternal'

you have to believe that Jesus died on the cross for your sins in order to go to heaven. So that God can forgive your sins. What if you no longer believe that. OK, related question: How do you know that the person EVER truly believed or had a saving faith of the heart and mind to begin with? Guess ...

Re: Are men more sexual than women?

Uh, we're getting WAY off track here, with the politics of it, gender wars, etc. As to the question, depends upon WHICH men and WHICH women we are speaking of. Privately, we should all be VERY sexual. But we are in a fallen world, many having difficult situations and pasts. And oft-chaotic or incons...

Re: Are men more sexual than women?

Nessa: I find comments such as "Nothing worse than a prude in the bedroom" rather insensitive and ignorant. But perhaps I have misjudged your attitude? YES you DID misjudge me!!! My post was meant to be an ENCOURAGEMENT of what our sexual lives SHOULD strive for, not necessarily where any...

Re: Are men more sexual than women?

Ness: But as someone who has in the past fallen under some of your criticisms from the above, I suggest being careful when speaking in broad terms. Alot of people out there have hang ups and alot of condemnation can bring unnecessary shame. What ARE you on about, Ness? How have I criticized you tha...

Re: Are men more sexual than women?

Nessa, you should know better that to ever attempt having a serious conversation with Rick, concerning certain topics: Women, samwiches, faith healers, liberals, etc. In secular society, women often don't feel as confident in being expressively sexual, because they get labeled as being loose, or slu...

Re: 'If you could lose eternal life it wouldn't be eternal'

When David sinned with Bathsheba - when he had her husband murdered by sending him to the front - did David have faith in God at that time? Or was he an unbeliever?

Re: Miraculous healings today

Jpbg: Philip what y'all are over looking is that in language there are statements that can be taken deferent ways depending on the way you read it, and then there are statements that can only mean one thing. That verse could mean A. That God would run them into the ground getting what he wonted fro...

Re: Marijuana vs Pharmaceuticals

But I digress, I am just looking for a biblical, or logical reason, to determine if marijuana usage is a sin, or if God put it on the earth (along with the 1000s of other plants) for our use. And if it is sin, shouldn't pharmaceutical drugs be a sin as well? If one is using it ONLY for certain, tot...

Re: Miraculous healings today

Jpbg: After reading the chapter it comes across to me that he is telling them that he believes that they will not turn away from God. That they were strong Christians and would hold out to the end. That was the meaning of the verse. And so you apparently are still ignoring the WHY/the REASON Paul h...
