    Is Faith Without Works Dead?

    The first gentile in the Bible was an Ethiopian (Acts 8:25:40). Paul most certainly did lose his blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Might I add, sometime had passed before the first Gentile became a member of the Body of Christ. For unless, one believes there are two "bodies of Christ" churches (one...

    Is Faith Without Works Dead?

    When the Law of Moses stopped (with John, the Baptist), Jesus started preaching the Kingdom of Heaven. Early in Matthew we see this. Yet, the nation of Israel rejected Jesus and put Him on the Cross. The first rejection was the beheading of John the Baptist (God the Father sent John to Introduce...

    Nick: Jesus is fully GOD and Fully Man. That man is Jewish. and what is wrong with God dealing with people differently in the dispensations that are apparent in the Bible?

    Is Faith Without Works Dead?

    I guess my idea of a contradiction is different from yours. To be clear, as you stated that Jesus told the Jews He was there to keep the law of Moses. This time period of Jesus was unique as Jesus was a normal human man at this time. Had He strayed outside of what He had to told the Jews up to...

    Agreed that it does not need to. Yet, for those that call it a contradiction, it needed to be said...and you said it well. Thanks

    Is Faith Without Works Dead?

    The idea being that God's is true. Both happened. This brings up another discipline of the Bible that I have not heard on this forum. Will leave it for another time.

    Is Faith Without Works Dead?

    "Yea, hath God said" The serpent "contradicts" (in this case, meaning 'To assert to be untrue')- agreed but then by the def provided, a contradiction it was not. I teach the 'dispensations' (7 of them) found in Bible are different time periods where GOD interacts with the people on Earth...

    Is Faith Without Works Dead?

    very Good, yet the rope had to come undone some way. It is just speculation what happened as we are not told...Yet, GOD did tell us this much so we can take it to the bank to be true.

    In Acts 1:18."Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out." and in Mark 27:5.."And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself." Notice that in...

    If I were to become Open Theist...

    I was trying to agree with Nick and show Him exactly how much they (Israel) are spoken of in the Bible. Yet, you and the others laugh and then in many cases give a one word negative judgements without explanation.WHY? It seems that unless I am on the side that is presented I am an outcast no...

    If I were to become Open Theist...

    Agree....try this Nick......take a Bible and find Acts 2 (your case Acts 15 or so)then find the beginning of Rev 4. and place a finger there...The pages between your fingers represent all that is said about the Gentiles. The rest (at least 2/3 or more) is about Israel (The Jewish people, God's...

    Good Teachers of the Law or Grace

    I have complete faith in every word of the Bible and try not to remove, add, change, etc any word in it. The bottom line is that the words preached were those or Jesus Christ and he was preaching "The Just shall live by Faith" , strange to be preaching to the Jews in this way. the same way Paul...

    If I were to become Open Theist...

    not sure what scripture you were referring to? I was referring to Isaiah 11:1-10. Out of these verses, one verse explains what I stated. "And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox." (Isa 11:7) Notice that the Lion will...

    I stated its purpose when I replied to you first post. I then tried to answer you next reply by trying to to prove what I had said. Yes, it takes us in a slight different direction, but what do you want me to do? Make no reply to anything you write? the article...

    Good Teachers of the Law or Grace

    Had to go back and find what you are speaking of..."Who is the YOU in Ezekiel 36? (Hint: the nation of Israel)". You are right and wrong. the 'YOU' you speak of is of course Israel. Do we throw away the whole OT after Chapter 12 because it is of and to Israel? Can God's word be like this...

    Good Teachers of the Law or Grace

    Rem Paul was preaching to the Jews first and then the Gentiles, always in this order. Since the Gentiles, the saints of the church (body and Bride of Jesus Christ) share the inheritance of Israel including all the unconditional convenants God gave to Israel. P.S. While it is disputed widely...

    Your saying the New Covenant was and is for Israel only. Better read up on Hebrews 12:22-24. The Church (Body of Christ is involved as well).
