Getting hung-up on inconsequential matters:
Caller thinks people, including his pastor, get hung up on stuff that doesn't matter. Heaven & no Sea: Is there anywhere in the Bible, especially Revelation, that gives insight about Heaven?

Pastors being Limited to Think CLearly:
It's unfortunate there's a limit sometimes on what a pastor can believe or teach within the belief system of their denomination. Predestination: Was R.C. Sproul saying that we actually DO have a choice on whether we go to hell or not? Trying to make Calvinism & Arminianism harmonize. Loved ones burning in Hell: John MacArthur & R. C. Sproul seem inconsistent about that they say about buring in eternity in hell. |

|
2013-09-26 |
Works & Grace:
On the grace & works issue, i was watching a documentary that said you don't need to "strive" for salvation, & someone thinking they can do something to please God is wrong, & there are verses that say we are automatically justified, but didn't Jesus tell us to strive? [Luke 13:24] Legalism: What exactly is legalism? |
|
2013-08-06 |
Church History Books:
Does Steve know any good books on Church History? Teachers Ignoring Truth: What if someone is persuaded that a new view they are learning other than what they believed might be true, but just wants to ignore it & not research it to see if it might really be true because they are afraid of losing their job, should we still consider them a reliable teacher? Is it a sin? |
