I have a co-worker who belongs to The Church of God and he has been taught the you must be baptized before you can get into Heaven. My belief is that if you confess Jesus as your Lord and Savior and believe that He died and rose again, you will be saved.

THe expression Gods wrath Day, in Zephaniah, chapter 1 verse 18, raises a very important subject, about the truth and Gods character, because man tend to anthropomorfisize God, despite the bible, that clearly establishes the the primacy of Gods nature, singularity and unic features of Gods character.
The bible also simple forbidens mans jugment, reggarding other man, wich implies not juging God!
Personaly, I dont have questions about Gods wrath Day, because I also know that the essence of Gods character is love, and as parens should do, GOD is warning His sons about Lifes seriousness.
Love implies mercy and justice, otherwise, woul be a blind love. God gives us life and a brain, to obtain not just knowledge, but also wisdom! If parents had just a blind love, woudnt it be be armfull to children? no doubt about that! It would be disastrous to all inteligent beings in the entire Universe, if GOD wast JUST merciful and not Fair.
Thats why GOD is willing to sacrifice Himself, for His Principles, according to His loving imparcial, nature and charecter!
It's written: God was at the cross, hiding His presence in dark clouds.The Bible reveals that and establishis the unity of God in three distint persons! (see genesis 19:24)
Before the Creation of inteligent, thougtfull, and individual minds, He had previously decided to die as a man for, not only man's sake, but also in behalf of the entire Universe.
I rather want suffering a while, than not to come to life.
The process of giving birth can be painful, but I'm thankfull to my mother and GOD for seing the light being alive, than becoming an abortion. It's written tht God is God of the living, and not the dead, as for god those who died in christ, is as if are already alive. The dad in Christ willressurect, to be like the angels of God, living in a Perfect, eternaly Happy earth and Universe.
I can't find the comment about Eve having sex with a serpent and giving birth to Cain.
So here's my comment on that:
Eve conversed with a serpent. Anatomically humans cannot mate with snakes.
For the people who come in here and say that:
You are in error.
God performed the first marriage. It says nothing, what you said. Where did you get that ideathe book of shadows?
1 John 4:6
We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of TRUTH, and the spirit of ERROR.
2 Peter 3:17
Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the WICKED, fall from your own stedfastness.
1 John 4:3
And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
One thing I don't understand is - I constantly hear many numerous people of the church like reverends - pastors etc and just random hard core church going people speak out against tarot card readers, people into numerology and other similar areas of interest, they're frowned upon, but in the Bible didn't certain individuals mention visions to kings & other great nobles to pay attention to? My point is why is this mentioned in The Bible as being okay but when folks mention praying to God about winning the lottery they get either laughs, chuckles or just plain scolded by church leaders. I thought speaking of visions was considered forms of evil - especially the way some church folks put it. But they never put down any negativity about those like David, Daniel, Joseph and others who spoke of visions. How is the lottery considered a bad thing or evil but those who read tarot cards are mocked & ridiculed - aren't they in the same category as David and others who spoke of visions. And why is it some people win the lottery & experience no hardships while others experience dread even death, while the rest of us can't win anything period. Or does winning the lottery require one to be that in touch or in tune with God & Jesus - could someone - anyone please help me understand these puzzling points? Thank you for reading my long exhausting question. Sorry but often times I get a bit winded while trying to make my point.
It seems as if Christ scolded his disciples when they couldn't cast out the demon. But then he tells them that this kind only comes out by prayer and fasting. So why did he scold them?
Is man a perfect creature? In relation to what we see in the Garden of Eden ,yes.
Satan wants us to "be as God"? Being as God is much different than being God! Being God is being perfect in His being, in all His perfection!
Being "as" God is quite a step down, even too the ground! The distance between heaven and earth, between earthy and heavenly! This earth the evil one slides on, who is cautious in all his ways.
Even in His innocence Man has been given a great freedom, to discern these things. Called thinking and reasoning.
Mans disobedience to himself is what brought the great mistake we see today. The separation from His very being! This being a true being, eternal, perfect and everlasting! Being is the creation, it is truly the Father of us ALL!
This same Father you hear and see now, whom u rejected has now spoken through the Son. This Son who spirit is Alive given to all who trust Him.
This same spirit that was from the beginning, and exists even now. You see but u cannot see. You hear but you do not hear? How is it u do not perceive?
Acknowledging the Father is acknowledging yourself! Knowing who you are is knowing your being! If, you know these things, happy are ye!
This is an inheritance that no one can take away! The Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit are ALL ONE!
Repentance is needful! It is what leads us back to our being! Being one with the Father the Son ,the Holy Spirit!

If there is anyone in here that thinks Biden should extend the August 31 due date to get all Americans out of Afghanistan, decisively and with intent of purpose?

Hi, my questions come from a fellow worker. He asked: Why do children suffer with sicknesses, i.e., Cancer, or any body organ problems? They are innocent. (I understand about the original sin, and I said that to him. He retorted, but why kids?) The other question was geared towards: Why are "faithful individuals constantly scrambling to make ends meet and individuals with not so reputable lives prosper? He said to me that he knew I would ponder the questions as I did for him before. I said to him that these are very difficult questions. (I have known these same questions in the past, and have not gotten an adequate answer that I could give to him.) I just trusted in the Lord, and that all questions may not have answers that I would understand. Please help me that I may pass it along to him. Thank you
The flock of my pasture are MEN? Not WOMEN. We have been deceived. We all have our place and the pulpit for Women is not one of them.. As soon as women left the home, which we are Nurturing Beings the home ceased to move forward.. I'M all for being paid fairly but the world has made it us against them vise versa.
