Matthew 7
A Tree Is Known by Its Fruit
15 ¶ Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. (Lk. 6.43, 44)
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. (Mt. 3.10 · Lk. 3.9)
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. (Mt. 12.33)
By example. Living a good Christian life based on scripture and God's law, and prayer is a good way to start.
This is something every Christian can do. Many Christians believe they have the Holy Spirit indwelling them and the Holy Spirit will bear witness to the Christian what is truth and what is not truth. Also there are established ways to interpret Scripture to avoid error. For example your should compare Scripture with Scripture. So if you say a piece of Scripture means 'this' and what you say is not backed up by other Scripture then you may be wrong - in a sense allowing the Bible to interpret itself and not someone else. Also, reading the topic Scripture in full context to get the real meaning.
The Old Testament from the Holy Bible relates specifically to Jewish scripture, and many of the things in the New Testament were prophesied about in Jewish scripture. Muslim scripture does not relate to either Jewish or Christian scripture because Jewish and Christian scripture are from God.
A Christian is just as accountable to God as anyone else.
Paul lived a very pure Christian life, and he set a example for others to follow.
A: Studied scripture and dutifully believed.
Angels are mentioned in both Jewish and Christian scripture.
When God speaks in the Scripture, He is speaking to everyone who will hear. Men have developed commentaries or 'theologic principles' to help explain various parts of Scripture - as their interpretation of it or exegesis. This is true for the Hebrew Bible (Talmud) and the Christian Bible with its Commentaries like the 'dispensation principles or the context principles.'
There is no scripture that says that God dies.
for me the foundation/s of Christian ethics, one is the Scripture, church, conviction and the Holy Spirit
.Catholic AnswerNot a blessed thing for the simple reason that Catholic and Christian are the same thing.
It was believed that only the Pope had authority to interpret scripture.
