@DavePellowe @MikeWingerii And the church initially rejected Gentiles and had to be corrected. Paul said that after his departure, wolves would come into the church. Sounds like a setup for abuse and

@JonByers186054 My view is that the scripture teaches that in Christ, there is no longer a dividing wall of hostility between male and female. We are all "sons" in Christ and therefore have the benefit of sons. God created equal counterparts (Ge 1:28...

Faith unites believers—not because it’s the same faith handed out—but because ou

Let’s clear up confusion about whose faith is inferred in 1Pe 1:7. Does it mean 'our faith in Christ' or 'the faith of Christ'? @AletheiaHS says it’s Christ’s faith given to believers (see his video in the quote tweet). However, context and Greek ...

@IemSparticus @harmonizedgrace Paul emphasizes how Onesimus has transformed from a slave to a 'beloved brother' both in the flesh and in the Lord. This reframes their relationship as equals in Christ. In fact, Paul appeals for Onesimus to be treated...

@B_Christs_Amb @JacobPaul432 @MikeWingerii It was really important that the Father was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself because the Father was participating—not by beating Jesus and nailing the nails in His hands and His feet—but He was act...

@B_Christs_Amb @JacobPaul432 @MikeWingerii Even though Jesus quoted that OT pass

@JacobPaul432 @MikeWingerii From a high level, PSA seems to be a Calvinistic doctrine where the Father punishes the Son. I reject this and I am not one of the liberals that Mike refers to. Rather, the Father was IN Christ reconciling the world to Hi...

@slow_down_Jess I have a local pastor who says I am semi-pelagian but he still sees me as a brother in Christ. He just won’t allow me to ever be in leadership…like not even in 20 years kind of thing. He’s a pretty strong Calvinist, so I don’t think t...

@Robert_S_Morley @Grump_Old_Man @ronhenzel @smashbaals Yes, I agree with this—but Paul is quoting from the letter from the Corinthians that he said earlier in 1Co 7:1 that he was responding to. And we have more evidence that the Judiazers were infilt...

@GetoD6812 @pastherandie I'm not promoting hyper feminists and false teaching. We are all to support one another; that is not something relegated to one s3x. The church does not emulate society but should be clear that we are all sons in Christ so th...

@ronhenzel @ymmotrojam Ron, yes, that was my mistake as the text is clearly God speaking to the serpent. Galatians makes it clear that it is not to seeds but to a singular seed, so you are right that Rom 16:19 is only because believers are “in Christ...

@MsLemon42 @cjonesaudio @paulogia0 That sounds like a shallow way of viewing life you described of your former self. Christians are not to seek death but to die to themselves to find true life in Christ and serving him. As the apostle Paul said “to l...
