  1. 2 Corinthians 5:1-2

    1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

    2For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:

    Could this be "In my Father's house are many............. . Is the Father's house the entire heaven, where God abides???

  2. In my Father house are many Mansions........I go to prepare a Place for you.. 

     

    Does a Place equate to a Mansion??  Will we need a physical place to live in?? Will our "new" body require certain substances for survival?? Will we require sleep and rest??

    So many questions with no answers NOW; but, they will be revealed when we get Home.

    Without Faith it is impossible to please God.

  3. "It is not even that God is silent about it - there is simply no biblical nor linguistic room for a gap."  I would agree with the biblical; but the 'linguistic' is way above this ole country boy's head.

     

    5  And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

        If we looked real - real - hard we could find a gap between evening and morning (nighttime) and between morning and evening (afternoon)!!!! Now we have to deal with 3 gap theories. :eureka:  I think I need a vacation.

  4. Should be welcome by those who like to have their coffee and dress anyway they want to. I believe this concept was mentioned in a previous thread; which it was conveniently brushed aside as something that would never happen. As far a Fellowship; it wouldn't be missed since it very seldom found among the people; unless you consider shaking someone's hand and saying a greeting as fellowshipping.

    My pastor would have to discard two of his favorite verses. One dealing with 'forsaking not the assembling' and the other about David saying 'he was glad when they said':'let us go down to the house of the Lord'.

  5. Many don't realize it, but the stone that David hit Goliath with did not kill Goliath.  It only disabled him.

    It was Goliath's own sword that killed the giant.

    1 Samuel 17:49-51 And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth. So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David. Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled.

    David cannot have killed the giant twice.  It stands to reason that if the giant was dead from the stone, that it would be impossible to kill him again with the sword.  Yet the Bible says he slew the giant with the sword.

    Did he slay him twice?

  6. I  have had to switch to IE and am using Windows 7.  I am having the same problem, cannot paste and cannot quote.  It works fine when I use Chrome, but I have other issues with Chrome so am using IE.  It seems to me (but I am an idiot when it comes to programming, etc.) that it is probably a glitch between this forum software and IE. 

     

    God bless,

    Larry

    I have Window 7 and use Firefox.

  7. For some reason I can not copy and paste here either.

     

    Anyone know why this is happening and how it can be remedied or is this an issue with OB?

    Are you using the pop-up window menu OR the keyboard? Can you highlight the words to be copied?

     

    If using the pop-up method and you can highlight the words; try the Control-C for copy and Control-V for paste on the keyboard.

     

    What is your Operating System and Internet Browser?

  8. I believe we need to be careful not to let "labeling" baptists destroy us from within. We have IB (Independent Baptist) and IFB (Independent Fundamental Baptist) and

    OFIFB (Old Fashioned Independent Fundamental Baptist). Needless to say there will be more coming down the road. Maybe we should just call ourselves Christians and let the chips from the outside world fall where they may.

  9. Now back to the OP: Presenting the Gospel with regards to Soul Winning.

     

    Romans 10: 13  For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

                        14  How then shall the call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear

                             without a preacher?

     

    These verses tells us that they (the lost) must first hear God's Salvation's Plan; then they must believe God's Salvation's Plan; and then they must call upon the Lord accepting

    God's Salvation Plan.

     

    All these acts  may happen within minutes of each other OR they could occur over several weeks, months or years.
