The seventh world power is a dual power: The Anglo-American or Britain and the United States.

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, often taught a lesson by telling a story through the means of parables or illustrations. In this illustration, the rich man depicts the Jewish clergy who were well...

In the Bible, “earth” does not always refer to our globe. For instance, Psalm 96:1 says literally: “Sing to Jehovah, all the earth.” We know that our planet-the terra firma and the vast oceans-cannot sing. People sing. Yes, Psalm 96:1 is referring to the people on the earth. Therefore, “earth”...

Bid Boy Johnson’s first point: Jesus claimed to be God.-John 8:24. Read before and after this verse-specifically-John 8:19, 27. Jesus claimed to be God.-John 8:58. Compare this to Colossians 1:15 Jesus claimed to be God.-John 8:30. The oneness to which Jesus referred must be understood in...

At a start, read points 1-5. Then read his scriptural references that Big Boy Johnson is quoting from.

I do not agree with the scriptures that you listed to supporting that Jesus Christ and God. Consider these scripture in the book of Matthew-only. Scriptures of this nature are not inclusive. All of these scriptures are contrary to what you are purporting. “This is my Son…”-3:17 “…son of God…“...

John 8:1-11 is deemed to have been added several centuries after John’s penned this inspired gospel. Consequently, such verses are suspect and not all version/translations of the Bible contain them. I also question this account because it does not mention, imply, accuse, and condemn the woman’s...

v Joseph’s linage is from David, Matthew’s account is not a true “blood line” because Jesus did not have a biological father. However, his step-father was also from the linage of David. In Luke’s account, Joseph is identified as the son of Heli-although being Mary’s father. According to Jewish...

The term “thigh” is used here to denote the procreative organs. The “falling away” or “shall rot” suggests the degeneration of these organs, so that conception or future conceptions would be impossible. Consequently, pregnancy was something a married woman desired and safeguarded because...

The “spirits in prison” (1 Peter 3:19) are referring to sinful demons that rebelled during Noah’s time. (Jude 6) Jesus was probably preaching the forth coming judgment awaiting Satan and these evil spirit creatures. Jonah preach a judgment against Nineveh.-Jonah 1:1 The “dead” (1 Peter 4:6)...

At no time were first-century Christians commanded to pay tithes. The primary purpose of the tithing arrangement, under the Law, had been to support Israel’s temple and priesthood; consequently the obligation to pay tithes would cease when that Mosaic Law covenant came to an end as fulfilled...

I am not sure what your point is. Regardless, I agree that none of Jeconiah’s (Coniah, Jehoiachin) sons sat on the throne of Judah. Also, I agree that Jesus was not a genealogical descendant of Joseph. However, by Shealtiel,-a son of Jeconiah-is of the genealogical linage of Mary; and, Luke...

Our Creator initially decreed that humans should live forever but not animals. Although animals are not condemned to die for sins, the human family is because of the inherited sin from Adam. Therefore, we die and are deaths are likened to other animals that die. In other words, all living...

It is my understanding the "porneia" or fornication is any sexual engagements-of the flesh-outside of a legal/scriptural marriage: male and female union. This is to include adultery (even consensual) , bestiality, homosexuality. Spiritual fornication is a different subject.

Well done. In support, revised editions of the King James Version and other Bibles the erroneous phrase have been removed and inserted are words such as: Spirit, water and blood. Jesus’ Father’s Spirit bore witness. (Matthew 3:16, 17; John 1:29-34) Water was a witness bearer at Jesus’ baptism...
