Christina:
your ignorance of scripture is evident enough for me thanks no further example needed.
perhaps you should ask Hammerstone to explain this to you
because everything you all are trashing me for is his belief also along with many others you jokers have run off
How long do you think he's going to tolerate you all running off real bible students, misleading babes, and trying to take over and run his site according to your ideas...
This has always been a site for all not just you yahoo's
Its either listen to you guys or get relentlessly attacked you can keep making your attacks personally directed to me or Jerry but you are offending everyone. So have your little fun while you can.
As fivesens pointed out Christina, and I spent a few hours looking at the Web page about the ten lost tribes of Isreal that Jarbreaker gave me. What fivesense and myself concluded is correct.
Fivesense:
By the way, there is not a single translation of the Writings KJV, YLT, CLNT, or otherwise, that lists "northern tribe, northern tribes," in the New Testament. Neither is the term, "lost tribe, or tribes" found in any version of the New Testament.
That being so, jerryjohnson, you have a good deal of honest and meaningful explaining to do concerning the "seeing of the Northern ten tribes" in the New Testament record, since it is not mentioned anywhere else, except by your authority.
I am not sure why you keep saying ask Hammerstone, he has the same bibles we do. You also confuse attacking with someone that is trying to show you what is true and what is not in the Word of God. If the Bible does say something, it will line up with everything else, it will match every scripture perfectly. If it is important the Word would make it clear, and repeat. God is not the Author of the obscure, or confusion.
You also ignore the fact that I tried my best to find these ten lost tribes in the Word. I went to the web sites and listened to all the short videos, and audio clips, I did what I was instructed to do, and spent lots of time....... The ten tribes are not in the bible....... all that are given is some scripture that people want to make it to be ten tribes, when it's not even close.
We don't just make up something then try to grab obscure scriptures to prove what we want. It does not work that way.
Even the Fly away Doctrine............... You ask others to suspend their system of bible interpretation, and ignore the context of What God was saying, just so you can prove something you make up.
Eze 13:20 Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly.
All of a sudden, God mentions the belief in the rapture in this scripture.................???? only confused people would believe that.
Out of nowhere God decides to just throw that in there, so everyone would think it is rapture he hates. Let me tell you something. God would have used "Caught away, taken suddenly in the air by the Lord" It would have been very clear. The term fly away is consistent with the rest of the scriptures.
Also, God was talking to those that use pillows (Form of charm or witchcraft device)
Most ancient interpreters and many modern interpreters have understood the “pillows” (or charms) and “kerchiefs” (or veils), as appliances to which the sorcerers had resort in order to attract notice. The veil was a conspicuous ornament in the east - women whatever their “stature” (or, height) putting them on - and it was worn by magicians in order to seem more mysterious and awful.
The Word "Fly" has nothing in common with the Word "Caught up" our Greek word for Harpoon. It means to make bud, to flourish, to Grow, blossom.
yet because we want to prove a theory of ours, we make stuff up, and find scriptures we can twist to our own liking.
It's not us Christina, it is you who refuse to humble yourself and hear the truth................
Jesus is Lord.
