Holy Fire: The Miracle of Holy Saturday at the Tomb of Christ … by Haris Skarlakidis
Holy Fire: The Miracle of Holy Saturday at the Tomb of Christ … by Haris Skarlakidis
I purchased this book in a monastery at Meteora, Greece … extremely high quality … 264 pages
The new book “Holy Fire” provides 45 personal testimonies plus a multitude of other references
and resources spanning the almost 2000 year history of the Holy Fire miracle that occurs
every year on Orthodox Holy Saturday in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

Created unto Good Works and not because of !
Eph 2:10
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Eph 4:24
24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
The false religionists have it backwards, they teach that man is created anew because of his good works, let me explain .
The good works that one does either in mind or heart must come from the principle of a new life or a new... -
Usagi the Yakuza Gangster
I've been wanting to tell this story here for quite a while, so here it goes. In recent years a number of yakuza gangsters have been saved in Japan. Down in Kobe some years ago one was saved and became a pastor, and a member of the Barabbas Mission, which works to see other yakuza saved. Here is his story: http://www.worldmag.com/2001/04/barabbas_lives
The yakuza are the traditional gangsters of Japan, the Japanese version of the mafia with some similarities in social structure... -

Has anyone else noticed this board is being taken over by charismatics? -
What's the problem with SBC, GARBC, and RBC?
Recently I checked out an IFB site for ladies and I was disappointed (although not really surprised) to find that I'm not allowed to join the forum because I attend a church that is part of the GARBC fellowship. This online group refuses membership to anyone that is SBC, RBC, or GARBC, or any other church that lets in anyone who isn't in complete agreement with "their" IFB "convictions."
This thread isn't to debate pants and KJVO, I just want to know what exactly is the problem? My... -
Antinomianism
I have been grappling with a selection of church I should go to & found one that I assumed had their beliefs squared away. When I asked pointed questions however about theology, I was told that they hold to a "New Covenant Theology" so I asked this board and others about NCT because I never heard of it. I believe it boils down to "antinomianism" a word that was expressed but never explained.
Here is what Websters has to say....

Satan's Signs and Wonders
I cannot find exactly what miracles (signs and lying wonders) Satan will do in the end times. I may never.
People who are not fully convinced about miracles operating today, often presume it will be healing the sick, raising the dead, cleansing the lepers, casting out demons, copying what Jesus did. I understand this viewpoint because Satan copied a few miracles Moses did.
But Jesus said Satan will not make his own house fall: If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his... -
Conflict between OT priests and OT prophets?
I post this here so all will be able to participate.
Does anyone see a conflict between OT priests and OT prophets in their views of how God deals with humans and what he requires of them? I do. And I think the life and teaching of Jesus is in the line of the OT prophets.
I know this thread will probably be controversial, but I hope this can be discussed without the all-too-often charges of apostasy, heresy, and the questioning of another's salvation. -
Dear Ole Westcott & Hort
Folks...I'm gonna post this attached article for everyone's attention and information by permission of its Editor(and friend),Bro. Steve Van Nattan of the Blessed Quietness Journal. It is a long article so plan on taking it in chunks if you are interested in it. Maybe you'll learn something...maybe you won't...probably depends on your "mindset" going in. Anyway...here it is. I'm not going to engage in any argument on the conclusions of it but maybe some of you "scholarly" types can have a go... -
How much?
I'm curious, and serious.
How much documentation/witness'/credibility, would it take to convince you that someone today, has been raised from the dead?
A doctor to confirm death?
Witness'?
If you simply don't believe it would ever happen please do not respond.
