Are Internet Churches Biblical
	Yes and No. Yes christians should meet on the internet or any other medium. All electronic forms of communication was invented for the "soul" purpose of spreading the Gospel. However, the churches which are internet exclusive do have a problem. Baptism by immersion, and the Lord's supper. These two things cannot be done over the internet.

What Is A Soul
	Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul. SOUL IS THE BODY WITH THE BREATH OF GOD IN IT At death the process is reversed Ecclesiastes 12:7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.

Sin Keep You From God
	It is very true. If you choose tolive a life of UNREPENTED SIN after accepting christ you will not be saved. It is as a dog returning to it's vomit. It is a man putting his hands to the plow and looking back, he is unfit for the kingdom. It is as those who fall away. To turn to a life of sin after accepting Christ is to reject Him.

Why Did Lot's Wife Look
	She forgot her purse. Just kidding

Do Guardian Angels Exist
	I would prefer the term Ministering spirits to gaurdian angel Hebrews 1:13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? Hebrews 1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?

Who Are The Real Jews
	Jews are not from the TRIBE of Judah, they are from the NATION of Judah. Paul who is from the Tribe of benamin is a jew. There are some Jews aho are levites also But the real jews are all those who have accepted crist.

Six Days To Make The World

God did create the earth is six days, and rested and blessed the seventh day. Maybe if more christians kept the sabbath day as a memorial of Gods creative power people would come to know Him better. Anyways, When God made man on days 6, man had food to eat. Just as the fruit trees that Adam ate from on day 6 had all the characteritics of a fully matured tree, so did the giant red wood. A giant red wood on day 6 had all the characteristits of a fully grown and aged red wood tree. Oh, and Adam and Eve being ONE DAY OLD, had all the characteristis of a teenager.God did not use seedling and sapps to create, he created fully aged and mature tree with his word. PS the chicken came before the egg.

Halloween Costumes For Christians

Halloween and christian? The shame of it all is that adult christians do this, and say they do it for the children. The bible never calls God's people do follow heathen beliefs in the name of " the children." Deuteronomy 12:30 Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee, and that thou enquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise. Deuteronomy 12:31 Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods, for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods.

Should Christians Drink Beer

The temperance arguement does not hold up when it comes to the thngs which are forbidden by God. Examples: God has forbidden his people from eating swine, you cannot be temperent in eating swine, any amount of swine consumed is a sin. EXAMPLE: God has instructed his people not to lie, a white lie is a lie, you cannot be temperate in lies. God has instructed his people not to consume alcohol, any amount of alcohol consumed is a sin. Now here is the kicker: How much alcohol can any person consume before he is drunk? No one truely knows until he has reached that limit.And in reality, he has consumes more than hislimit before he gets drunk.

Replacement Theology Satanic

In the book: THE IMAGE OF GOD IN THIS GENERATION, several text are given why the church is israel. It is not a replacement theology. There was no replacement. Here is what happened in a nutshell: God made a new covenant with israel, That covenant is accepted by israel. All of israel who accepted are christians, the gentiles then are grafted into israel. Those jews who did not accepted the new covenant are cut off, so God did not start a new thing, he just cut off the dead branches, and put in new believeing branches. The bible says that believing gentiles are citizens of the nation of israel. The bible says that believing gentiles share in the spiritual things of israel.

Should Christians Drink Beer

think about this: According to the new testament, if you look at a woman with lust you are an adulterer. If you hate your brother you are a murderer. How then is it that if you drink alcohol you are not a drunkard? God does not change. If God says ONE TIME in Old Testament or New Testament that you should not drink alcohol, then drinking alcohol is a sin. Once God has said it, he never has to repeat it. God is not a man that he should lie, nor the son of man that he should shange his mind ( repent) Has he said it and it will not come to pass?

Man Made Church Traditions

All references found in the bible refers to the Lord's day as sabbath. Ami to beieve that God has changed his law? HEBREWS13:8Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. To me, and millions of seventhday adventist, it is a strange doctrine for anyone to teach that sunday is the Lord's day.Ifthe bible is true and jesus did not come to change the laws, and jesus is the same and we are not to be deceived by strange and different doctrines, those who think that sunday is the lords day are worhiping in vain. Because the bible says IN VAIN DO THE WORSHIP TEACHING FOR DOCTRINE THE COMMANDMENTS OF MEN.

Who Is The Bride

I would have to say that the bride is the holy city, the new jerusalem. In the bible johns says: I will show yo the bride ... and he was shown the holy city. In galations paul says that the New jeresalem is The mother of us all. I do not believe that the church is the bride, but the relationship between Jesus and the church should be as man and bride. WHen paul speaks of the church as a bride, he prefaces is with.. i tell you a folly.. if it is a folly it cannot be true and real.

Seventh Day Adventist Belief

Cleansing of the sanctuary is biblical: Leviticus 16:29 Leviticus 16:30 For on that day shall [the priest] make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, [that] ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD. In the OT the priest did the ritual cleansing with animal blood.. Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood, and without shedding of blood is no remission. Hebrews 9:23 In the NT it is done in the heavenly sanctuary by Jesus blood.

Was Melchizedek Jesus

Hebrews 7:3 Without father, without mother, without descent, , but made like unto the Son of God, abideth a priest continually. Without father, without mother, without descent means that his parents are (A) not mentions (b) was of no great reputation. having neither beginning of days, nor end of life means that the biblical record and scroll do never recorded the start or end of his life, and priesthood He was human a priest like Job, and like abraham

How Many Commandments
	I do not recall any covenant made with gentiles. I do recall a new covenant made with the Jews. ALl who come to christ thus must be of israel because God made the covenant ONLY with israel.

Jews Really God's Chosen

Jews are really Gods choosen people. Problem is all wo come to christ are jews. Romans 2:29 But he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and whose circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit and not in the letter, and whose praise is not from men, but from God. God made a covenant only with Israel.Never has God made any New covenant with a Non Jew. If any non-hebrew has accepted the new covenant, then he has accepted a jewish covenant and thus is himself a jew inwardly where it really matters. For more on that see my book: The Image of God in This Generation
