"Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who
acknowledges the Son has the Father also ". May the Eternal Father of the Lord Jesus
Christ grant you mercy and by His Holy Spirit dispel the darkness you are unknowingly
being held captive. Robert"

Excellent post Robert! I join you in prayer for Don's salvation. Don's enthusiam, zeal, and intelligence are impressive, but insufficient to bring him to a knowledge of the Truth. With intelligence alone, we would 'always be seeking but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth.' It is not intelligence that brings us to a knowledge of Christ, but a humble spirit and contrite heart.
We, like Paul, must preach Christ 'by the power of the cross and not with words of human wisdom.'

May the love and peace of Christ continue to abound in your heart.

Emile

Robert, I appreciate the pleasant tone of your rejoinder, but how much yardage do you expect to gain by ignoring the many scriptures I present and saying I'm blind? Suppose you spent 60 years preaching door-to-door as Jesus did, telling people they're blind liars -- what results would you expect? I'm accustomed to attacks, and take no offense. Yours is the error.

For, though I am free from all persons, I have made myself the slave to all, that I may gain the most persons. An so to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those under law I became as under law, that I might gain those under law. To those without law I became as without law, although I am not without law toward God but under law toward Christ, that I might gain those without law. To thew weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak. I have become all things to people of all sorts, that I might by all means save some. 1 Cor 9:119-23

It appears you have little experience following Jesus' footsteps, which lead to the doors of your neighbors, else you would be less apt to condemn. Now it's your turn to defend your faith. Please answer these questions:

1. Define the Trinity.

2. Explain how Jesus has a God.

3. Explain the New Heavens & New Earth. Isa 65:17, 66:22, 2 Pet 3:13, Rev 21:1-5.

4. Do all the saved go to heaven?

5. Do you preach house to house? Acts 5:42

6. Who are children and sinners that die in the New Earth? Isa 65:20?

7. Do you pay your preacher, and give him a title? [Reverend, etc?] Ps 111:9 Mt 10:8

8. How do you abstain from blood, as Acts 15: 28-9 commands?

Does your violin have but one string: Jesus is God, Jesus is God? Robert, I'll not say you're deaf if you'll not from say I'm blind. I await your answers from scripture alone.
