Following the thousand year reign of Jesus, a final test will be given to all the earthly subjects-those that are resurrected and those that survive the "great tribulation." (Revelation 7:14) This test starts by Satan being released from the abyss. Those, now in perfect condition both physically...

Great question! I think-in a condensed explanation-that that this scripture is referring to two deaths that some will undergo. The first is a physical death due to the inherited sin from Adam (Roman 5:12); and, the second means a permanent death, without hope of another resurrection. Consider...

Consider 1 Corinthians 6:9-11. This should give you a starting point to answer your question.

Giving respect to others is just and paramount; however, showing, agreeing, adapting, etcetera to “doctrinal diversity” is suspect and not supported scripturally. There are many scriptural references about this subject. I have identified, for consideration, a lengthy list. Consider: Matthew...

Jesus Christ was speaking to his disciples in the present of the Pharisees and scribes prior to the account at Luke 16:19-31; and, taught lessons by telling this story through the means of parables or illustrations.-Matthew 13:34, 35; Luke 8:10. In this illustration, the rich man depicts the...

The following scriptures are in suport of your post: Matthew 7:14, 21-23; 15:8, 9; 22:14; Luke 13:24-27.

Jesus Christ was speaking to his disciples in the present of the Pharisees and scribes prior to the account at Luke 16:19-31; and, taught lessons by telling this story through the means of parables or illustrations.-Matthew 13:34, 35; Luke 8:10. In this illustration, the rich man depicts the...

This suggests to me that using “Lord” twice is an emphasis of acknowledgment and respect that Jesus Christ has authority of judgment over the past, present and future people of the earth.

This New Jerusalem is heavenly, not earthly, for it comes down “out of heaven from God.” (Revelation 21:2, 9, 10) Compare Ephesians 5:24-27. Therefore, this city does not consist of literal streets and buildings. It consists of the 144,000 anointed members of the “bride” class-“the Lamb’s...

This can be a very complicate and confusing subject to discuss-especially in this manner. Consider what the Bible says carefully and compare it to world history. The beast that Daniel saw represented the Roman World Power. –Daniel 2:4; 7:8. Compare Revelation 17:10. In the fifth century C.E...

True, the Bible speaks of certain “dead” ones as being conscious, but these are only said to be dead in a spiritual sense, not literally. Contrarily, some that are physically dead are alive to God.-Matthew 22:32 Since the physically dead are “conscious of nothing at all” (Eccl. 9:5), these dead...

All that we believe and do needs to be grounded not on basic knoweldege but on "accurate knoweldge." Most professedd Christians have varing degrees of knowelge, but not accurate. Consider and reflect on the scriptures: Romans1:28; 10:2; Ephisians 1:7; Philippians 1:9; Colossians 1:9, 10; 2:2...

The "little horn" refers to Britian. See my post on Sept 17, 2025.

Read Colossians 1:15. 16 about this subject..
