The Bible teaches us how and why God's permission of evil all began. Beyond that the Bible teaches us there is hope: "The angel said to them, Fear not, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to ALL people." (Luke 2:10) God's plan of recovery is based on His son, Jesus...

Jesus was an Apostle of Jehovah. His special messenger. The 12 were Apostles of Jesus. Paul was chosen and sent out by Jesus himself. Paul also saw Jesus in his glorified form, which counted him among the twelve. There is no scriptural proof that Barnabas saw or met Jesus, which would have...

You stated that "It seems to me that Paul considered himself apart from the 12." What I'm saying is if that were true then Paul considered himself apart from the others he mentioned.

If that's the case than he separated himself from the others he mentioned. 9 Am I not an apostle? Am I not free? Have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord? 2 If I am not an apostle to others, yet doubtless I am to you. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the...

I go with #2, why? Because unlike Paul, Matthias, was never heard of again. After his selection to be the twelfth apostle he is never mentioned again in Scripture. The evidence is clear. The twelve apostles were also specially chosen and commissioned by Jesus. Jesus chose Paul as an apostle...

Sorry, but that makes no sense.

I'm sorry, what does this have to do with the topic or what I initially posted?

Can you show me where?

7 For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. 8 And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one. Please note: the middle parts of verses 7-8 are spurious...

“Truly, I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise,” Luke 23:43 (CSB). Our Lord did not go to Paradise that day but went to the tomb. He was raised on the third day. There are no commas in the Greek text. Punctuation was invented around 1515 AD. Placing the comma after “today” clarifies...

’s Kingdom! Interestingly, Luke adds something in his account of this prophecy "Then He told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree, and all the trees. As soon as they put out leaves you can see for yourselves and recognize that summer is already near. In the same way, when you see these things...

In Matthew 24:32-34, Jesus gave a very important sign. “Now learn a parable of the fig tree: When his branch is yet tender and putteth forth leaves ye know that summer is nigh. So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily, I say unto you...

Jesus died a "ransom for all" (1 Timothy 2:6) ... Judas will be given the opportunity for life during the Millennial Reign, with the rest of mankind.

The scriptures tell us in Matthew 12:31 “Therefore I say to you, any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven people, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven." Those who sin against the holy spirit, die the second death, where there is no resurrection/salvation. Judas NEVER had the...

Well Jane, we are, afterall dealing with a book of symbols. You know the saints are known by many terms and descriptions. For example; Church, Holy Ones, Kingdom of God, Temple of God, Bride of Christ, the body of Christ and the Lamb's Wife. Why not "angels"? What is an angel? Is it not a...

"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these My brethren, ye have done it unto Me." – Matt. 25:40. Now this Scripture is a generally misunderstood and misused one. If you haven't studied it in its connections, you'd likely think that the Lord is referring to those who have lived...

Okay Jane, let's look at these verses one at a time. "When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory" - Matt. 25:31 Now, the setting of this parable is when The Christ (head and body, Jesus and his Church, the...
