Hi BG, Whether the "unity" is in a classroom or in a church under ANY teaching, I'm like Reagan -- trust but verify. And I believe this is the exhortation from "evangelist-7". Ref: 1 Cor 14 With Best Regards, DD

Hi BG, I believe individuals comprise the "church". And we are to judge everything we are told, -- in which "judge" suggests that we PERSONALLY investigate, study, pray, and receive the TRUTH of a matter: 1 Cor 14 26 What then, brethren? When you come together, each one has a hymn, a lesson...

Hi Cooter, I would expect the time of the end to be as Scripture (and History) define it: Dan. 2 41 And as you saw the feet and toes partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, it shall be a divided kingdom 45 ... the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold ... = 4,3,5,2,1 = FIVE...

Hi Cooter, Perhaps you missed that the "audience" was the "classical" commentators. And ANYONE who knowingly presents a conclusion contrary to the objective evidence, is a LIAR. (Please allow a more genteel text: prevaricator, perjurer, trickster, fibber, deceiver, falsifier, storyteller...

Hi rjp, It would seem you've confused a Christian versus a government: Romans 13 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. 4 For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if...

Hi Randor, I guess I'm confused how ignoring Scripture and History is a testimony to anything but intellectual dishonesty. The book of John declares Jesus as the Word. So exactly how is it that YOU defy the Word, but claim to obey Jesus?!? Dan. 2 41 And as you saw the feet and toes partly of...

To All, For those who believe that we can ignore portions of Scripture which are inconvenient, please allow the following texts: Matt. 5 3 “Blessed are the poor -- now you can walk past the needy without a thought 4 “Blessed are those who mourn -- now you can laugh at a funeral 5 “Blessed...

To my most bestest, dearest, closest, and most Christian best friend forever (BFF), Thank You So So Much For Caring To Share Your Greatly Esteemed Thoughts As Though They Were Refined Gold Bestowed Upon A World In Desperate Poverty! :wub: Please be aware that the Host of this Topic...

Perhaps you did not read verses 41, & 45, so let me re-post them for your reference: Daniel 2 41 And as you saw the feet and toes partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, it shall be a divided kingdom 45 ... the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold ... = 4,3,5,2,1 = FIVE...

Hi BG, Daniel 2 41 And as you saw the feet and toes partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, it shall be a divided kingdom 45 ... the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold ... = 4,3,5,2,1 = FIIVE It seems you wish to stick to a doctrine, -- over Scripture. Please let me...

Hi Bible_Gazer, Daniel DIRECTLY prophesied to his kindsmen under the mantle of Jeremiah. All other interactions are between the Nations, starting with the Babylonian Nebuchadnezzar, Beltshazzar, Darius, and finally the Medo/Persian Cyrus. Daniel 2 41 And as you saw the feet and toes partly...

Hi brakelite, Once again, ALL Scripture is profitable. Thus you MUST credit GOD with INTENT, in HIS Intelligent Design of that sequence. And if you don't like the inference which I have suggested, then PLEASE provide your own explanation. But to do otherwise, is to IGNORE Scripture. Daniel...

Hi Cooter, I believe you mis-spoke, and intended to cite Chapter 11. However, if you go back to 11:2, you should find that History does not agree with the "three more" and "fourth" ancient history assignments. Newton readily discounted the "classical" interpretation and wrote his own, but...

Hi Floyd, I would like to ask you some questions regarding Chapters 12, 13, & 17. Would you be willing to open a new Topic which we can go through some of the text and history? With Best Regards, DD

Good idea, I hope when Joseph interpreted the seven fat cows and the seven lean cows, that the Pharaoh smiled and assured Joseph that he doesn't need to prepare for the future. GOD would take care of both Egypt and the family Joseph left behind. Good Call, DD PS If you don't know about...

Hi Bible_Gazer, The Book of Daniel is written to the Nations. Daniel is NOT called to prophesy to the Jews, thus in Daniel Chapter 9 he must don the mantle of Jeremiah to address his kinsmen. All other Prophetic Chapters and interactions/events are to the NATIONS. As such one should expect...

Hi brakelite, You are more than welcome to treat Scripture as though it were a buffet line, picking some and disregarding others. However, ALL Scripture is for edification and thus the Daniel 2:45 sequence is part of that Perfection: Daniel 2 45 ... the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver...

Perhaps you should heed the admonishment that this Topic pertains to the Daniel 2:45 sequence, Iron, Bronze, Clay, Silver, Gold = 4,3,5,2,1 = FIVE, and the suggestion that if you want to discuss other subjects, that you host a new Topic, rather than hijacking someone else's Topic. To All...

Hi Cooter, I noticed you had PLENTLY of explanation for the verses NOT IN QUESTION, but not a word for verse 45: Iron, Bronze, Clay, Silver, Gold = 4,3,5,2,1 = FIVE. By all appearances, it would seem to be an inconvenience for your ill conceived doctrine, for we know that ALL Scripture must...

Me thinks you need to read the Prophetic Books, dude. To All, What was the Holocaust except to the Jews, and the One-World-Government except to the church. Let all be forewarned both by Scripture, and by the saints. With Best Regards, DD
