and that there is no reference in the New Testament as to make us think of having to give the divine attributes, such as the mediator between man and God, the latter role that competes exclusively to Jesus Christ? (1 Timoteo 2,5)

Did you know that…

…the term “santo” it means “separate, secluded”?

Did you know that…

…Christian people, according to the New Testament, It must not be divided into “priests” e “lay”, because this distinction has been made only in the centuries after the first, while the Word of God considers all true Christians “priests” in the sense of people who offer their lives and their praises to God?

    Hi ChristianFaith. I wanted to ask you if the site listed at the end of the article (http://camcris.altervista.org) it is reliable, as I read from the site itself that it is a PENTECOSTAL evangelical site.

    Thank you.

      Giuseppe,

      Ciao! Thanks for letting me know… I actually published this article many years ago, taken from that site, even if it carries a more recent date here, since I had changed platforms. The site in question is in some respects reliable. But I changed and modified this article and I remove the reference link as I no longer carry it as it is. There are things, in the Pentecostal doctrines in fact, that we reformed do not share. Without prejudice, however, we must analyze everything and as the Bible says “Examine things and feel good”. So let's read it all and take what's right while leaving the wrong things aside.

    Dearest ChristianFaith, you did this article very well. But I want to ask you something: could you explain to me the meaning of 1 Corinthians 3:15? Thank you!

  3. ChristianFaith dice

    Yes Alessio. The fire that Paul refers to is the fire of Christ that will return, he says it even before, it is not a purifying fire of Purgatory 🙂 Paul says that we must be careful about how the church of Christ is built, that only resistant materials (oro, diamonds, etc. valuable stuff metaphor) they will resist fire, while the others will be burned. Ma non vuol dire che chi non ha edificato con "materiali" of value I will not be saved, because he has always been washed by the blood of Christ by faith, then he will save himself from the fire (judgement) who burned the materials but saved him by making him escape death (eternal).

      I will not be able’ never understand how such arguments can be formulated.
      Faith consists in believing in absurd things, even without having any proof
      except what a dusty old book states.
      ChristianFaith,

        Roberto45,

        What is a dusty book to you, for us it is the Word of GOD! I warn you, is the last comment that I approve of you, the others are all the same, polemics against Christianity… if you read well, before posting the comment, in the form where you enter your message, it is written to visit the page of the confession of faith. I do not ask to accept it but at least to respect it and to respect the Christian point of view (you are on a Christian site and not vice versa), which you are not doing by going to post comments that always say the same controversy under science and bible articles. This is intolerant and disrespectful behavior that I don't accept. E’ well written here not that I want controversy, the questions yes, in fact I have answered you several times, but when I see that despite the answers, the controversy continues, to intentionally want to offend our faith, I say that I am right when I say that the intent of atheists in general is to break the boxes. Make your life with your theory of evolution in mind, being sure that I will not come to disturb you or to want you to believe what I believe. With this I'm done with you.

      2. ChristianFaith dice

        Ah, you are also totally ignorant!! Christianity is amply proven by both history and archeology… not to mention the extra biblical sources written by pagans of the time, which speak of the resurrection of Christ!!! EMPIRICAL science (PROVEN) he has never been able to deny the biblical content, nor history! In addition, for us Christians there was contact, communion with God, what you, not having had it, you can not understand. So you are a prejudiced ignoramus about something you don't even know. Learn to be humble and study before making accusations!

      3. Roberto45 dice

        Blessed are you who have had the 'contact’
        me obviously (like many others) I was not deemed worthy.
        However I came to the conclusion that
        discussions are useless.
        With this I salute you and I promise you that I will not bother you’ more'.
        Your regards.

      4. Roberto45 dice

        Excuse one last question (totally free of controversy), if I'm not mistaken, I read in some of your answers that you are one of the 'chosen ones’ from God (you had the 'contact').
        Now I ask you : e’ God who chooses man
        or the man who must choose God.
        I honestly haven't understood this yet.
        Thank you if you want to answer me for the last time.
        Greetings

        ChristianFaith,

      5. ChristianFaith dice

        E’ God who chooses man, as it has always done throughout history, preferring certain people over others (Cain and Abel, Israel and not the rest of the world, the apostles, etc). E’ his sovereign decision, it may not save anyone since we are lawbreakers. I am not elected in the sense that I am better than another, I was simply pardoned thanks to HIS GIFT of faith (it depended on him, not from me and my ability to understand faith, it is He who chooses and illuminates). All Christians are elected, they are those who believed in Christ. See the theology section or the predestination and election tags.
