    The Devil is in the Details

    False. This is question and answer not meant for babes in Christ, but for the mature. But the answer is: Time and the timeline of this would-be history is and illusion created to reveal an immense about of Godly truth "precept upon precept, line upon line, here a little there a little" in...

    The Devil is in the Details

    The doctrine of Christ, is that salvation comes through Him alone.

    The Devil is in the Details

    God is just assuring that there is no possibility of someone first being called by Him, that will prosper. In other words, God, not men, are in control of what comes from God, and even what does not.

    The Devil is in the Details

    The answer is: Adam didn't have a mother, but was created.

    How can I deal with these reservations?

    Welcome! God has simply shown you, taught you, on a path of contrast. First the snobby side which He does not like any more than you, then the ugly side of life without Him and the hope that only comes with Him. Keep reading. Don't worry about fully understanding, God will take care of what...

    Messiah 2030

    Does that sound like a massive group event? "Thee" is singular.

    After effects

    Are YOU God then, that YOU should tell me I am wrong, AND that He Himself was incorrect in saying His Holy Spirit would indeed speak through those sent? What is your answer?

    SDAs, USA and the End times.

    @BarneyFife and all, These matters are ages old, so I will be direct and perhaps blunt: A lot of what you or the SDA have surmised is helpful, and yet some is not, but completely in error. What I mean, is you have gathered from the forest more than from the tree, from the secondary and the...

    The Unholy Trinity Responsible for the Downfall of Modern Christianity

    The apostle Paul referred to the downfall of Christianity as the believing of a "lie." While dispensationalism certainly qualifies as a lie, the greatest lie has been that Jesus was not coming "soon" or that all of what He revealed would not "shortly come to pass" as He said. The "lie" most...

    Mega-Church Vs Small-Church

    Yes. Soup or Salad? Yes.

    What do you think was God`s Purpose in making - the Nations, Israel and the Body of Christ?

    Many are the images of God and His relationship and purpose of humanity, for which the heavens and earth were created--even the images of the new heavens and new earth and New Jerusalem. Everything made manifest or spoken of in parable is not what shall be according to the worldly image, but...

    What do you think was God`s Purpose in making - the Nations, Israel and the Body of Christ?

    Yes, man created in God's image, Christ the firstfruits: Man is an "image" of God.

    What do you think was God`s Purpose in making - the Nations, Israel and the Body of Christ?

    That is why I added Paul's Ephesians 5 "mystery" verse. It is a mistake to think that words of man do not reveal things of God--it takes away the key of knowledge (Luke 11:52). An example would be David's own words of suffering applying prophetically to Christ.

    What do you think was God`s Purpose in making - the Nations, Israel and the Body of Christ?

    This verse answers all three: Genesis 2:18 And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.” The biblically established fact of God's relationship with his creation of humanity, is portrayed as the relationship of a man and a woman in...

    Hidden in plain sight: Why I believe this about the Revelation

    I am not a Preterist (they too have been in error). As for the law and the temple of God, it was never of the world.

    Hidden in plain sight: Why I believe this about the Revelation

    "False" perhaps to those who have been under that foretold strong delusion. But No, what you were speaking of and giving your own answer and understanding of--was sealed (Daniel 8:26)--and not even available during the time of those who have now taught much the same thing for centuries as you...

    Hidden in plain sight: Why I believe this about the Revelation

    My statement was not meant as a challenge or debate. If you only look to the world for meaning, that is what you will get. But what is the Temple (spiritually)?

    Hidden in plain sight: Why I believe this about the Revelation

    Very good--except for the common error, the result of the "lie" foretold of by Paul that would cause "strong delusion." Which is the timing. The "lie" is that Jesus' return would NOT be "soon" or "the things which must shortly take place" would instead be in the distant future. In truth...

    Shinning a light into the evils of the DEEP STATE is NOT "replacement theology."

    Yes, and that was the problem on both sides in that other thread. But you are exactly right, in fact that separating the good from the bad or even suggesting there are two or more version of certain things, can be done with a lot of things, and should: The good and bad of the Law, the good and...

    Shinning a light into the evils of the DEEP STATE is NOT "replacement theology."

    Yes, much of it is as you say. However, remember that God is making manifest the things that are both true and false. Even false gods were and are made manifest. In other words, in spite of these things, what men mean for evil, God has meant for good--and yet many of them actually still...
