    Featured Good Part — Jesus still loves his disciples even though he predicts Peter will deny him three times.

    Little theories are useless unless until they are put into actions.

    Judas is blamed even though “Satan entered into him” in John, chapter 13

    Satan is not omnipotent. He cannot make anyone do anything they don’t already want to do. Judas was a thief who cared more for money than he did Jesus. So yes, Judas bears the responsibility of betraying Christ.

    Featured Good Part — Jesus still loves his disciples even though he predicts Peter will deny him three times.

    So you basically do nothing to keep anyone out of Hell. The agape love of Christ, when received, keeps people out of eternal Hell and helps bring them through the hell we face on earth. My job as a believer is to tell everyone about the love of Jesus. I am actively involved on a daily basis in...

    Thinking about those horrible situations does not resolve them. So what do you do to prevent sexual abuse? What have you done about the war in Gaza and Ukraine?

    Featured Theory — the Greek “mystery religion” version of Christianity was already widespread at the time of Paul’s travels.

    It was a lot of traveling. But there was a huge motivation behind it. Jesus had commissioned Paul and all believers to spread the Gospel. Jesus has given us a great commission to tell all people how to avoid eternal separation from God.

    Featured Are babies saved? Can they be saved?

    We refer to that as the age of accountability. This age varies depending on the individual child. Some children mature faster than others. Usually somewhere between the age of 6-10 is when most kids begin to understand the concept of sin.

    Featured Are babies saved? Can they be saved?

    I don’t believe infants need to be saved since they would not be guilty of sin.

    Featured Theory — the Greek “mystery religion” version of Christianity was already widespread at the time of Paul’s travels.

    The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and the Acts of the Apostles detail the beginning of the Christian faith. The Bible provides more details than maps do.

    Featured Are babies saved? Can they be saved?

    No one in the OT went to Heaven when they died. They went to Paradise, or Abraham's Bosom. When Christ arose and ascended to Heaven, He led those out of Paradise and took them to Heaven. Now however, when believers die, they go to Heaven. It is sin that separates people from God (Isa.59:2)...

    Featured Are babies saved? Can they be saved?

    John Gill: I shall go to him; to the state of the dead, to the grave, where his body was, or would be; to heaven and eternal happiness, where his soul was, as he comfortably hoped and believed: from whence it appears, that the Old Testament saints did not suppose an annihilation at death; but...

    Featured Are babies saved? Can they be saved?

    Yes, babies are innocent. When David’s son with Bathsheba died he said “But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me”. (2 Sam.12:23) David said he would go to where his son was. Everyone, I believe, accepts David is in...

    Fake news. Jesus Christ is God in the flesh; the Creator of everything; the Savior of all mankind.

    Featured Theory — the Greek “mystery religion” version of Christianity was already widespread at the time of Paul’s travels.

    Your theory is dead wrong. Paul was born in Tarsus, but grew up in Jerusalem studying Judaism: Acts 22:3 I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers...

    Paul was already a believer when he made ALL of his journeys. Again, your posts show complete ignorance of Paul and his ministry.

    Featured Theory — the Greek “mystery religion” version of Christianity was already widespread at the time of Paul’s travels.

    I’ve spent a year in the Orient; I’ve traveled to the Caribbean; I’ve been to Mexico and to South America. I have not been influenced by any religion in any of those places. Just because a person journeys to a foreign country does not mean they are impacted by the local religion. Especially if...

    Featured Theory — the Greek “mystery religion” version of Christianity was already widespread at the time of Paul’s travels.

    Again, where is your evidence? Speculation is not evidence. Claims need some type of support. There is ZERO evidence Paul was influenced in any way by some mystery religion. None, Nada, Zilch. I have shown where Paul was raised and brought up as a Pharisee who was zealous for the Jews religion...
