I think God is trying to get Oness believers and Trinitarians believers to come together and not be so divided saying the other side is going to hell because they don't believe in One True God. John 3:16 says if I believe in Jesus I should not perish. Jesus also says you can't get to the Father but through Him. Col 3:16 says that whatsoever you do in word or deed do it all in the name of Jesus giving thanks to God and the Father by Him (Jesus). So if you baptize in the name of Jesus you aren't leaving out the Father. I am going to Heaven dispite what any denomination says. I believe Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God and I can't get to the Father but by him. So I was baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ giving thanks to God and the Father by Him. This fighting over the GodHead is not right we all have to have faith in God. Jesus ios the head of the Church and since He is God and Head is this not the God Head.
Jesus has been given all power so who is more powerful than Him? He is the only Savior. So if you believe in Jesus and have obeyed the Gospel of Jesus Christ you will be saved.
If a man say that he has known Christ, let him do away with oldness because you cannot worship God in carnity, it is an insult to Him. This is the time any person who want serve God will serve in spirit and truth and not with double minded.
After Reading this i dont think i can go back to sin anymore and it was nice reading this Bible verse i will try as much as possible to lead a good life to please my Creator.Amen
The scriptue was originally part of a letter written by the Apostle Paul to the church at Ephesis. He was letting them know that God
is not tripartite, triple headed being or entity with multiple bodies (as some ancients represented their chief gods in triple form. The God of the universe stands as God alone and is Father or creator of us all. When Paul noted that God was "in all," he was addressing those who were a part of the church (who had received God's spirit), and because of this, they were being reminded that God was in all of them and that their very existence was dependent on God.
LOL. its so amazing how Proverbs 3:5 clearly reads Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and LEAN NOT unto thine own understanding but still people carry out these self interpretations. smh. Take a look at Ephesians 4:5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism. now out of all the lies, religions, and philosophies thats floating around the world always always remember that ITS ONLY, ONLY ONE TRUTH ABOUT GOD and if you don't know what it is then don't speak on it. if it applies be offended. simple as that.
I am constrained to answer Phil Artlip's ridiculous comments concerning the 5 fold ministry of the church, not having any purpose of evangelizing the lost. No one having recieved thelove of God in their heart-- no sane intelligent person could make the statement those outside will have to deal with it , for we are not to go compel them to come to Christ. Thats nuts!! Evangelist !! duh thats like go evangelize not the saved but those that are without. Artlip was complaining his comments were quickly removed, well if i was checking out comments both your comments would have already wiped out. Artlip yuo need to repent!
My comments were quickly erased while others remained! Once more... Eph 4:11...Lit: And He...Christ...gave some Apostles, some Prophets, some Evangelists, some Pastors, and Teachers...FIVE...to equip the saints,for the work of the ministry, for the building up of the Body of Christ, until we all come into the unity of the faith unto a Perfect Man...These 5 are for His CHURCH, not to save the worl!! Those who are outside are God's worry, not ours... 1 Cor 5:12-13. Blessings, Brother Phil Artlip
Eph 4:11-13: Literal: And He (Christ) gave some Apostles, some Prophets, some Evangelists, some, Pastors, and, Teachers (5.) For the equippng of the saints, for the building up of the Body of Christ, until we all come into the unity of the faith and the full knowledge of the Son of God unto a Perfect Man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of the Christ. That's it! Not to run out and "save" the world! Those who are without God deals with ( 1 Cor 5:12-13.) Brother Phil...
Dear Dan, The ones that Christ referred to pertaining to the dead 'HEARING' His voice, were those that had died IN FAITH in God's Word, thus promises, pertaining to that which was to come, prior to Christ coming into the world in the form of a man; in the likeness of sinful flesh, to die for the sins of mankind. All those that had died prior to His coming, who HEARD God's Word; words, in the way that means to BELIEVE God's Word; to thus have faith in God's Word, are all those who's souls went down into the midst of the earth, not into Hell, but nevertheless in a particular grave site, where death held them hostage, as they waited for the prophesied; foretold, coming Messiah; Saviour. As, the Lord had promised them, saying:
Isaiah 26:19 Thy dead men shall live, together with MY DEAD BODY shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
1 Corinthians 15:21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
Hebrews 2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste DEATH FOR EVERY MAN.
Philippians 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
2 Corinthians 1:9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:
Acs 2:24 Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
Romans 6:9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
1 Peter 3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
After Christ came OUT of that fleshly body; the form of a man; the likeness of sinful flesh, He THEN went to the part of the midst of the earth that is Hell, and TOOK AWAY from Satan the KEYS of Hell and Death!
Revelation 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
THEN He want to another part of the midst of the earth where all those souls that had BELIEVED God; believed the Word of God preached to them, and had thus died in faith, looking forward to the coming Saviour; Redeemer; Messiah, slept; rested, waiting for Him to come. And He took them, who were all held CAPTIVE by death, in the grave, all CAPTIVE UNTO HIMSELF, and AROSE, with them, they with HIM, from the dead:
As prophesied in the Old Testament:
Ezekiel 37:13 And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
He FULFILLED that prophesy in the New Testament, upon rising from the dead:
Matthew 27:50 Jesus when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
52 And THE GRAVES WERE OPENED; and many bodies of the saints which slept AROSE,
53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
Ephesians 4:8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led CAPTIVITY captive, and gave gifts unto men.
Since our Saviour; Redeemer; Messiah, is come in the flesh:
John 1: 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath EVERLASTING LIFE, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 5:21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
I believe in JEHOVAH.Jesus wanted his fathers name known. John :5:43, John 17:11, John 12:13,28 Lord is a tittle. 1Co 8:5,6 Mt6:9. Ex 6:3. Isa 42:8..( John 8:44)( John 4:24)Deuteronomy12:32 I believe todays versions are just that,a version. Matthew 15:9 and Ephesians 4:14 Doctrines of man. 1John 5:19.....

How definitions reshape themselves to fit our cultured traditions! This verse seems to list giftings rather than offices in corporations, as our organizing has established. We often appoint a pastor to function as administrator, evangelist, teacher, and prophet. It seems that prophesies in the Bible were always divinely inspired rather than through the prophet's intellect. He spoke messages (present or future tense) without understanding them himself. As I understand it, Teacher; was one gifted to teach precept and doctrine(by speaking or writing). Pastor is similar to; shepherd, one who feeds. Apparently, these are Christ- given gifts rather than just learned and appointed positions.
A WOMAN WITH MEEKNESS on Ephesians 4 - 15 years ago
Walk in the way of the Lord and always go to him
when burdens seems tough;
With Jesus fully in your heart and knowing that he never said that it would be easy and sometimes it gets rough;
He binds the broken hearted and gives strength from above,
Knowing through the Father, Son and Holy Spirit is the true realm of inner beauty and then there
is LOVE.
On days when anger wants to tarnish the beauty that GOD has firmly planted then he can lead to healthy measures without putting on the GLOVE.
Even when we might be hurt by harmful words then pray silently for the Spirit to cleanse it so that the evil words spoken by others; I get meek quiet without the rumble.
Because we all fall short of the Glory and it is important to try to prevent the tumble.
