The new caliph, who may have been injured in an air-raid, appears on video within 24 hours of said air raid. See BBC report.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-28082962 The Islamic State has been announced, along with a popular leader as Caliph. Search other media for more details, and pay good attention to what western experts on Islam are saying about the meaning of this announcment..

I love your list of spirits. Never seen it laid out like that before! Romans 8:2 - the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus (Also vv 6, 10 and 38 of Rom 8.) is zoe. This is the same life as mentioned by Paul in 1 Timothy 4:8. Only Jesus Christ has zoe. Is this what you had in mind? (Or at...

Hi Mr Bride, Remember John 8:44? Maybe some of those who are sure 'conspiracy theories' are lies, and those who mention them are liars, don't have the Spirit of Truth guiding them, but rather the kind of 'light' of which Jesus said, 'how great is that darkness'. Matthew 6:23 God is light and...

Hi Quantrill, In further support of the opening comments in my post # 51 on p2 of this thread, here are some verses which show 'the land' being referred to separately from 'the people' who are called 'Israel'. 2 Kings 17:1 In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah...

Hi David, Of course! But this is a public discussion between myself and Quantrill, and it is surely okay for me to ask him to look at certain verses more closely so as to think about why it is I may have come to a different conclusion from himself to date. I didn't always 'look' at this topic...

Hi Pelaides and Retrobyter, Do either of you have any idea why Ezekiel's layout was not used after Judah was released from Babylon?

Hi Quantrill, From your replies, it does look as if your doctrine has been gleaned from the teachings of men, rather than the teachings of scripture. 2 Tim 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in...

Hi Quantrill, Thanks for your reply. The verses I gave in Galatians 3 are 8 and 14, (and 28 and 29) - not 1 - 8. 8 and 14 are directly linked to Hebrews 9:15 and Romans 4:16. Romans 4:16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the...

Hi Quantrill, Those are great verses! :) Where does it say that 'the land' is called 'Israel'? The phrase, 'the land of Israel', which does appear in scripture, is a reference to the geographical location of the people descended from their father Israel who separated from their brethren...

Please don't change the subject from the text to me. <_< I gave you a section of scripture which I wanted you to read 'at face value', so that you could give me the benefit of your spiritual insight as to how it could be translated into a physical building, such as you seem to be believe...

Because that's what I've come to understand after reading discussions like these for a decade. In a nutshell, Israel means 'God prevails'. Israel is a people not a place. The 'Israel' that God is going to bless through the new covenant, which is 100% connected to the old covenant at the...

Before I comment on that, I'm assuming you've read the descriptions in Ezekiel? Now the following extract is not necessarily about a 'temple', but it does demonstrate one of the difficulties. Can you spot the problem and how would you solve it? Ezekiel 40 5 And behold a wall on the outside...
