Christians do need to prove the spirit of the lives and words of other Christians so that God in Jesus by his Holy Spirit can refine us as brethren and make us alike enough to be a light and witness to others by example. This website is a place of words, even quoting the Bible very well and to the letter has a weakness and that weakness is that we the reader and the professor of Peace in Jesus Christ can not see the peace, grace, joy and freedom in each other's lives as our neighbors see us. :)

8/27/2020, 6:30pm by "CARL JUNG": I like what you wrote. Evidently, some decide to divide the apostles, gospels, and old testament. By this they apply the long suffering and grace of God which is given to the poor of his people (Fatherless and widows) to the rest of those made just and righteous. We are purged through the remission of sins, given to us by the offering of Jesus Christ himself. Now, he is able to have compassion to those out of the way and afar off. Moreover, the simplicity of the gospel speaks of how one may have faith by believing God sent Jesus and that he came from God. Being freely justified we are forewarned to walk in the truth. We are ordained unto good works. The branch that withers may fall as did the Jews before, so that they were cut off by unbelief. It is not whether you are truly saved, but that you do just judgement, delight in mercy, and walk humbly with your God (Micah). And, the just shall live by his faith (Habbakuk). He will perform his promise to Abraham who believed and also perform the truth to Jacob(Micah). We are all one body and Jacob dwells in Samaria and Jerusalem. Let us not set a brother at naught and despise the long suffering of God. Also, let us take heed to Peter in his second book. There he mentioned Paul and his explanation of the gospel as the long suffering of God, which brings salvation, but many will be led away by the error of the wicked. God is able to make us pass under his rod and root out the rebels (Ezekiel). He is not willing that any should perish and he has sealed us with the spirit of promise. He is able to present us blameless before God, even his children that are cast out and whose flesh is eaten by the haughty man. The least shall be the greatest, so every man shall live by his faith.

8/07/2020, 8:15am by "Onyekachukwu Ogechi Levinus Alaka": There is one mediator, Christ. The Holy Spirit is referred to as the parakletos, the Comforter. It is the guide, leading us into all truth. Comforter means "one who goes alongside." If this were a personality, then one would begin to think that it is in a position somewhere between us and the Father. But the Bible makes o mention of anything of the kind. There is only one between us and God, and that One is the Son. This is similar in form to I Corinthians 11:3, which shows that, of the Deities above us, only One stands between us and God the Father, that is, God the Son. This means that not even the Holy Spirit, sent to us as a Comforter, is a mediator. If the Holy Spirit were God (equal to the Father and the Son), it would be an affront of the highest order to exclude "Him" from an intermediary role between us and the Father-especially when we consider that the Bible assigns us, mere human beings, an intercessory role between others and the Father. By prayer we are to intercede before the Father for one another, which is a form of mediation. We go to the Father in behalf of our brothers and sisters who are undergoing trial, difficulty, sickness, or whatever. The Holy Spirit is excluded from this role because it is not a personality, yet we are given it because we are personalities.

Adam was formed later to do God 's will to the creation men women, it doesn 't mean he was the first man. Christ certainly wasn 't the last man.

1/21/2015, 7:49am by "MockingBird": Truly there is one God : the only way that I can get to God is through Jesus Christ and the blood that He shed for me and only on His merits that He wrought for me to be able to get to my God. I cannot approach God on my merits and my blood or on any good work that I do. Take the word of God at face value and quit trying to dissect it into something His word does not say. You have to have scripture to back up scripture.

1/21/2015, 3:32am by "AMEN JAY": OUR LORD JESUS IS THE TRUTH,THE WAY ALSO THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD,NO BODY CAN REACH GOD EXECPT VIA HIM.

12/19/2014, 3:42am by "Brianna": 2 points I take away from this. ONE this proves to me that we only pray in Jesus name. Praying to or through saints are not backed in the Bible. Only Jesus is the mediator. TWO This highlights how God and Jesus are not the same. God is a separate entity. Jesus plays the role in which mankind can approach God. If Jesus were God, then there would not be a need for a mediator, cause essentially you are going directly to God anyway.
