Re: Visiting people you don't know
...So I wonder, whatever happened to the church being the light of the world? The lamp that is not to be placed under the table? Is the church afraid of being rejected and having the door shut on them? That is a question with a complex answers and reasons. So here is some food for thought: -Some Ch...

Re: Is baptism a condition of salvation?
Baptism for me, at the time of my "believing" was not a matter of "having to do" ., it was however, a sign for me to start living contrary to what I had been living without Christ., I expected the Holy Spirit to descent upon me, not as it did upon Christ, but surely as a believe...

Re: Separation or Annihilation?
I read and I tremble of "judgement" ., for there is a judgement coming upon all man., I fear it, because I am human, and without that fear of God in me, I am sure I would sin left and right without regards., as it is, I sin every day., there's not a day that I don't deserve to be judged an...

The Fall of Man & The Fall of Fallen Angels
Did the fall of man (Adam's sin) and the fall of Lucifer and the fallen angels, did it occur right about the same time, or was there an age old interlude between one event and the other? If the rebellion started in heaven, and the fallen angels where cast down to earth, why then build a garden and p...

Now, with the images of Christ and the cross, people are worshiping and bowing down to who? The Son of God who is fully God.

Re: Separation or Annihilation?
One of the great difficulties with the popular view of final punishment or hell is the profound silence of the Old Testament. Everywhere we find God warning sinners to repent. He threatens judgment for disobedience and carries it out on many occasions. But the idea of endless torture after death is ...

Re: Welcome to Baja
Back to the topic question.. I have a lot of various answers so far, some good and some not so good. It just surprises me that Christians can be reading the Bible but have different answers for the same question. As far as "idols", it only is idolatry if a person worships the object itself...

Re: Separation or Annihilation?
Since fire is symbolically used throughout scripture, could not the descriptions of hell be so, as well?

Re: Is baptism a condition of salvation?
I think we all agree that baptism is not required for salvation., but., does baptism guarantee the "forgiveness / remission of sins" ??
