Eternal Security...(Revised May 2015)
The issue of whether or not someone can lose their salvation is of utmost importance. On a personal note one of the pastors who prayed with me when I became a Christian believes that people can lose their salvation by rejecting their former faith. However my love and admiration for him cannot overri...

Re: Spiritual Warfare...
I would pray to God and ask the Holy Spirit to open your eyes to deception. Anyways Satan can only deceive as much as we allow him to. The fallen angels were not deceived, they followed Satan in his rebellion. http://www.gotquestions.org/God-allow-deception.html The enemy's power is no match for God...

Spiritual Warfare...
I have been reluctant to post this because I do not fully understand this topic and people might believe I am crazy or insane after reading this. However I cannot remain silent when the reality of spiritual warfare is around me. The evidence of this is the attacks on people recently: A missionary fr...

Re: Why the Bible is true...
Kurieno, what you said is true. That's why I try to share my testimony about what Christ has done in my life in addition to making the intellectual case for believing. No rational argument can overcome someone's resistance to God if it comes from the heart. In that case we should show the love of Ch...

Re: Please Introduce Yourself Here
Hi, I am Timothy Yung. I am a young adult in my 20s, I live in a region of California where it is a missionary field. I became a Christian when I was 18. When I first became a Christian, I was gung-ho about talking to people about Christ however I was not skilled at it. For example I was talking to ...

Re: Jesus' Genealogy (Matthew 1:1-17& Luke 3:23-38)
God is faithful to his promises and fulfills them (Psalms 89:34) despite humans being unfaithful to him. God's plans prevails despite human failure. One of the best examples of this is God's promise to David that the house of David would have kingship forever. When Jesus comes back to the Earth, he ...

Re: Why the Bible is true...
Neo, what I meant was the claim the Bible is true because it is the Word of God is a valid argument however without evidence it sounds like a circular one. Second, yes I agree that many non-believers will claim the same thing about their religion however that is why we must be ready to defend our fa...

Why the Bible is true... (Revised June 2015)
It does ultimately come down to faith. If God is a loving God, he would want to communicate with mankind who bear his image. So he sent his Holy Spirit that inspired the human authors to write God's message to humanity. God is a perfect being therefore his message is perfect. The Bible is His Word t...

The Existence of God...
Here is some of the evidence for the existence of God: 1. The creation points to a creator. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: (Romans 1:20...
