Re: Oneness vs Monotheism

So who is Jesus speaking to in the garden? When He says "not MY will but THINE be done" whose wills are they? This is the question that I personally have trouble answering without using a bunch of...

Re: Oneness vs Monotheism

I'm going to jump in here.... though I'm not sure I will regret it or not :D

Re: Struggling with Doctrine & Faith

Re: Struggling with Doctrine & Faith

Just read through your posts. Solid stuff here. You laid that all out much better than I could have.

Re: Struggling with Doctrine & Faith

Re: Struggling with Doctrine & Faith

I was under the impression that there are a mix of different kinds of people here. Are you an ex-apostolic?

Re: Struggling with Doctrine & Faith

With all due respect, I think you are maybe misunderstanding. I believe in this wholeheartedly, but lately I have struggled with some doubts. I pray, and fast, and do the other things you have...

Re: Struggling with Doctrine & Faith

Also I'm pretty...

Re: Struggling with Doctrine & Faith

There are already some good answers here that have helped me find my footing again. Really I think I'm just in a reevaluation phase of life where I am "owning" my beliefs more than ever before. And...

Re: Struggling with Doctrine & Faith

This is one of my core beliefs, and something that has in a way led me to where I am now. I have been a student of the word for a long time, but I realized that in order for to actually love truth,...
