Pertanyaan-Pertanyaan

Why must man suffer eternally for only living 60 or 70 years?
The whole issue of man's eternal separation from God revolves around God's holiness and man's sinfulness. As Habbakuk. 1:13 states, God's eyes are too pure to behold or approve evil and He cannot look upon sin. This does not ...
Are there other passages that state, implicitly or explicitly, that the believer is indwelt by the Father and/or the Son?

Is the Voice of Conscience That of the Holy Spirit?
The facts of experience do not bear out the conclusion that conscience and the Holy Spirit are the same. Conscience is a faculty of the soul which approves or Condemns according as one has or has not done what he believes to ...

The command to love 3:23-24

Holy Jesus! God of love! Look with pity from above! Shed the precious purple tide, From Thine hands, Thy feet, Thy side. Let Thy streams of comfort roll, Let them please and fill my soul, Let me thus for ever be, Full of gladness, full of Thee.
