49er, I may have asked this before, but are you a he or a she and do you have a name we may call you other than your tag name. It would be easier for me. I guess it is my southern upbringing to call people by their given name! :wlol

Thanks for your honesty and responce!

Well, I'm pretty much a Calvinist, so that answers all the questions.

I don't think we can lose our salvation.If we confess by our tongue and in our hearts, we are saved. Salvation is by grace,not works.

2. The Doctrine of Hell!
I think it's eternal.Can't quote straight from the bible (need some work there ><) but there was this bit where people who reject salvation burn in hell for all eternity with the false prophet. or something :X

3. Doctrine of The Holy Spirit and the Gifts!
I still haven't quite grasp the concept of trinity yet (who can?). I think that we will receive spiritual gifts,though not necessary the gift of tongues. It's one out of a whole possible list of gifts. :)

4. Doctrine of Angels!
Some say that Demons at one time procreatated with humans and they believe in the Nephilim!
It's stated in the bible - the Nephilim bit- isn't it? o.O

5. Bible Prophecy Concerning The End Times (The Rapture)
Pre-Trib, Post-Trib and Mid-trib and Pre-Wrath. Or their will be no Rapture!
I think we're at pre-trib.


Coincidence is when G-d decides to remain anonymous.

Be not a follower of man,but of the everlasting Lord.

will you persevere in a lost cause,at the risk of a heartbreak?

Hello, I'm new here but the truth is not.

I believe we have been given to many promises that he is able to keep us from falling, to ever believe
we could lose, or terminate our salvation.
Like the prodigal Son, we may turn aside for some reason, as I did once, but
God never let me go.
He knew right where I was, and why I had got so hurt to turn aside, but he also knew
when, and where to draw me back.
When the time was right, he simply reminded me," Remember that day ,on the road?"
That was real, you need to come back to God, or lose your mind.
Three times he prompted my spirit in the same way, remember that day?
Come back.
When I agreed in my heart, Yes, I need to return, the fog lifted and I started my journey back home, where my Father was waiting.
Never once did he say to me, or lose your salvation
.My sanity? Yes.
Ten years of abuse, had taken it tole, but God delivered me, and made me whole.He kept me ,even in times of
abandonment, and abuse,and made me whole again.
God is faithful, even when we fail to be......All we have to do is trust his word, and act on it believing. :eotl
