    Signs of the End

    Bear in mind a rule or two for interpreting history in light of Biblical predictions. Israel is the center, the purpose and the core of all Biblical prophecy. It was to Israel that Jesus came the first time and to Israel He has promised to return. To that end Biblical prophecy indicates...

    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    Everybody fancies themselves a prophet. Funny thing is that if you study the lives of the prophets you'll find little there that is attractive. Prophets were lonely people. For the most part they preached themes and messages that were unpopular with the society in which they lived. Only...

    Signs of the End

    I tend to agree with you on this point. The interpretation of 'sea' is not indicative of nations. Out of place verses are often quoted even by satan. Bible verses don't lie, but liars can quote Bible verses. A verse or two do not imply the watery interpretation is correct. The Bible is...

    After a Christian Dies

    A very clear and precise thumbnail explanation of the resurrection. The saved do not wander the sky as disembodied spirits. Such wandering is the destiny of those humans who die apart from the 2nd birth. "They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their shame; wandering stars, for whom...

    U.S. Pledges $1 Billion for Ukraine Aid

    Where do you get three superpowers? There is no suggestion by Daniel, Ezekiel or Revelation as to such numbers. The feet of clay refers to a global empire and there is only one that matches the description. The current United Nations organization of approximately 180 members fits the...

    The TRUTH About Ukraine & Russia

    The current crisis in Ukraine is financial in nature. The contest is between the western debt based financial system and the eastern commodity based system. Russian military and internal political influence may succeed in ending Ukrainian political independence. The Crimean issue is...

    The economical war already started today

    Twenty first century Money Wars, as someone in the media has called them, began quite some time ago. The current debacle over Ukraine and Crimea is but the most recent eruption of that inflammation. They have their root in a contest between two competing international monetary systems...

    Is America Becoming A Force For Evil In The World?

    Mr. Pardo wrote: "We are an exceptional country." I wonder if Mr. Pardo knows who coined that term. Where did it come from and how was it used? In the 1920's, Joseph Stalin then leader of the Soviet Union and the International Communist party, issued a letter to the Communist Party of...

    U.S. Pledges $1 Billion for Ukraine Aid

    Quoting scripture to support a political agenda seldom convinces anybody. The reason it doesn't is because political agendas are primarily based upon base human desires of greed, will to power and the popular attitudes of the huddled masses. Quoting scripture to support a political agenda is...

    U.S. Pledges $1 Billion for Ukraine Aid

    "The United States has always been a nation of ongoing hustlers from the prisons and disaster areas of old Europe, I do not think that the American System in its present state of decadence is worth preserving. The initial success of the United States was largely accidental. A rich empty...

    God is Love

    This reads like Universalist rubbish or something Hallmark cards would put out on the fake holiday of Valentine's Day. No one is saved by love. Love isn't a spirit. It's either a biological reaction to physical stimulation or it's the fruit of the Holy Spirit (along with peace and joy). It...

    Salvation Not Possible Without Works

    A Christian is saved FOR good works, not BY them. Salvation is by grace, so that no man can boast before God of what he has done. Grace is GOD'S work in us to will and to work His good pleasure in the world. Salvation isn't by works because you'd never know when you'd done enough. Finally...

    Instrumental Music In Worship???

    You are funny. You begin by saying you don't want an argument and then present an argument contrary to traditional worship for thousands of years or more. Christian worship has included song since before the days of Antioch when believers were first called Christians. Perhaps if your...

    U.S. Pledges $1 Billion for Ukraine Aid

    If a man with a gun breaks into your home, the solution is to take out a loan? Mr. Kerry's offer of a loan to the Ukraine at this time is as inappropriate as it is blatantly opportunistic. It shows in stark relief the complete disregard for human rights and liberty that is NOW the foundation...

    Homosexuality: Is it the way a person is born?

    There is an old whine and it goes something like this.... Why was I born like this? I didn't ask for this! Why did God make me like this? The question is not meant to illicit an answer from the Most High. It's meant to justify hatred of God and usually that of sin itself. Want some cheese...

    Healed but not saved?

    The entire text of the scripture reference is available in post #2 above. There is nothing in the passage that speaks of being saved. No allegory, no metaphor and no tangential suggestions are mentioned alluded to or implied. It is entirely about the healing power of Christ by means of...

    Arguments against Theistic Evolution

    It's not about creation. It's all about destruction in the name of militant atheism. The debate on creation appears at surface to be scientific in nature. It isn't. The rhetoric is a smoke screen for deeper issues and both sides know this. Just below the thin pretense and sham of modern...

    We are Flesh and Spirit according to Jesus our creator.

    What about the mind? The mind is a physical component of the body. Ever meet someone who'd lost theirs? Something is quite obviously out of place. Both body and mind are lost at death. Cessation of brain activity is one of the benchmarks of death. It is possible for the brain to be...

    THE HARBINGER

    The Harbinger by Jonathan Cahn is an interesting read. It's chilling for those who accept it's premise. I've set the topic here because there are actually church groups using this book as a basis for study. It's rather like creating a menu for road kill, but they're doing it. The book is...

    Millennialism/Amillennialism

    You have identified one of the inconsistencies of the ideology of Amillennialism. As with most eschatological variations, it has certain logical problems. The same is also true of variants and tangential doctrines of millennialism, which is currently most popular with evangelistic folks...
