David, you speak as though there was a universally understood concept of death and the afterlife before the first century. However, that is not at all the case. In fact there were many variant perceptions. The Pharisees correctly understood there wa…

Below i gave what i perceived to be an honest assessment of some of the Calvinistic doctrines. Would you be so kind as to give me your impute.
Thanks
Paula,
The sound doctrine that LT is sharing is not the same as the distorted one David G. has presented. You would have to read all the previous posts to follow that discussion.
Jesus had told Peter, Simon Satan would have you and swift you like wheat, but I have prayed for you, so that WHEN YOU TURN (not if you turn from your sin, but when you turn) YOU STRENGHEN THE BROTHERS. True Christians can have radical falls, but ne…
19One of you will say to me: "Then why does God still blame us? For who resists his will?" (a deadly blow for those among us that believe that God can not overcome our will, who can resist is! Scripture teaches ) 20But who are you, O man, to talk ba…
The plain sense of scripture here teaches that Gods election of Jacob over Esau is totally outside their actions and decision, there is no possible way around it as it’s seen here from these verses and I am not sure I can do justice to the truth by…
Many are called, but few are chosen. Here is what reformed theology teaches according to what I know, hear and read them saying:
God can not predestine people He does not know, so the fact that the golden chain starts with foreknowledge does not pro…
I am not teaching here, nor am I looking for a fight, I just dislike to see Calvinist and Arminians duke it out when they have not even spen the time to analyze the doctrines they oppose in detail, at times not even superficialy. My only goal here i…
Sister Paula,
"Calvinists doctrine is not according to the Word of God. The teaching which they received and which they firmly hold on to, is not Biblical."
I would not be so quick to make such and assertion sister. Please visit the Theology group…
I started a topic about the differences found between Reformed theology/Calvinism and Arminianism in the Theology group, not so we can hate each other and dispute like crazy folk’s hahaha but so we can get a deeper understanding of both systems.

My story with God
i have always known that God is there, i have always believed in Jesus and so do demons and satan they all believe jesus is there but do they belong to jesus??? I was raised in a christian family going to church every sunday but somehow i wasnt connected to God i didnt belong to jesus at all.
Until one day i just thought if i die right now where am i going to go, i was scared of dying because i didnt know where i was going to go where was my spirit goin to go if i died, thats when i realised i need to be born again i really need to be baptized nt just by water but by the holy spirit, i felt strongly inside that i needed jesus in my life........i prayed for forgiveness, repent, askin God to guide me into a path of his choosing nomatter how difficult n uncertain it can be. im takin everyday as it is learning all about God
Other stuff about me:
im a student at university, i live wiv my family in england, i love cars so much and i drive i really nice just want to thank God for that.
i love my family and friends may God bless them.
im blessed and its all down to God

hello, here's a joke for you jayne! God bless you today and always. by the way how did you get to know this christian site?
WHAT'S A CHURCH?
A well-worn one-dollar bill and a similarly distressed twenty-dollar bill arrived at a Federal Reserve Bank to be retired. As they moved along the conveyor belt to be burned, they struck up a conversation. The twenty-dollar bill reminisced about its travels all over the country.
"I've had a pretty good life," the twenty-dollar bill proclaimed. "Why I've been to Las Vegas and Atlantic City , the finest restaurants in New York , performances on Broadway, and even a cruise to the Caribbean "
"Wow!" said the one-dollar bill. "You've really had an exciting life!"
"So tell me," says the twenty-dollar bill, "where have you been throughout your lifetime?"
The one dollar bill replies, "Oh, I've been to the Methodist Church , the Baptist Church, the Lutheran Church."
The twenty-dollar bill interrupts, "What's a church?"
