Paul points out to Philemon: …perhaps he [ Onesimus, Philemon's rebellious, runaway servant] departed for a season, that you [ Philemon] should receive him forever; not now as a servant [ a slave, a nepios, an infant that "differs nothing from a slave" (Gal 4:1)] but above a servant, a brothe...

At the very beginning of my paper on The Law Of Moses Versus the Law of the Spirit, I point out that "God's law is the revelation of the very character of God Himself." While God himself has always existed, and while Christ is the physical manifestation of God the Father, neither the Father nor His ... [read more]

The Lord's Supper and The Passover
March 18, 2002
According to Christ, His last supper (what Paul calls "the Lord's supper" - 1Co 11:20) was "the Passover" (Mat 26:18) and "as oft as (he) kept it" was once a year.
The sum of your word is truth (Psa 119:160 ESV); How precious are your thoughts t... [read more]

Look at this verse:
Joh 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
Now according to what "the many" teach, Christ completely left out a very important "person" in this stateme... [read more]

Can you give me a one paragraph opinion of Preterism?
R____
Sure. I can do it in one sentence: Preterism is one third of Christ. It therefore is not His fullness.
Now, if you have the time and are interested in why I say that, you can continue reading.
Jesus Christ informs us eleven times in the b... [read more]

Hi Mike:
Was reading your article on free will and had this observation and question.
You said...
We still must be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, because flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God. Salvation is not in us coming out, it is rather outside of us through Christ... [read more]

Mike if you have time, I was wondering if you could explain something Jesus said.
The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. (Joh 12:25)
Does this imply that a Christian will lose his salvation if he finds, saves, keeps an... [read more]

Preterism is one third of Christ. It therefore is not His fullness. Jesus Christ informs us eleven times in the book of Revelation that He "Is, Was, And Will Be" (Rev 1:8). 'Is' is always primary and is always before 'Was.' Preterism puts 'Was' as primary. Revelation says, "Keep the sayings of the p... [read more]

I have posted an article entitled After The Counsel Of His Own Will. The title is taken from Eph 1:11, which says that all things are done after the counsel of God's own will. This is in accord with all other scriptures, like Rom 9:16: ... It is not of him who wills, nor of him who races, but of God... [read more]

Physically and in the natural realm Tamar was the daughter-in-law of Judah, the son of Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel.
When Jacob was blessing all of the tribes of Israel this is what he said of Judah:

Your preacher friend, like all orthodox Christians, has no use for Christ's words. Here is Christ:
Joh 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
Listen to your preacher friend and you will remain confused. Listen to Chris... [read more]
