No, Luke 14:28ff is not about the cost of discipleship, but rather it is a parable about the present times and the nation of Israel's attempt to, in their own strength, to resurrect their "Temple" in the vein hope of being able to reconnect with God. In these parables Jesus is telling the...

Please allow me to post how I believe the creation story unfolded: - GENESIS How Creation unfolded (Gen 2:4-9; Job 38:4-11; John 1:1-5) 1:1 First God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was...

Perhaps we should consider how Israelite people understand verse 31. Their understanding of the Hebrew text goes something like this: - 31 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make like new again the covenant I had with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: The...

Mark, you have touched upon the art of good communication. Good communication only happens when the reader of what a person writes or speaks, comes to the same intended understanding as the writer, when they constructed their form of communication for the reader to see or hear. The question...

Marks, if you had read my first post in this thread, you would have noticed that I was actually defending what you had written; that the words "Apart from" could be taken to mean more than just being separated from Christ which was how @Dash RipRock understood what you had posted. Dash Rip Rock...

May the Hannah and her family know the presence of God and be drawn into the Love that God has for all of us so that God's Glory will be seen through the Miracles in the life of Hannah and also may the family have the heart to praise and Glorify God in all that is and will happen as they press...

Hello The 9/11 events are described in Rev 16:12-16 which starts with the drying up of the River Euphrates and ends with the kings of the earth assembling the place called Armageddon to be judged. The judging of the Kings of the earth is also described in Isaiah 24:21-22 and provides the...

If you had said that in the first place, it would have resulted in a very different response in this thread from @Dash RipRock and me.

Mark, your quoted statement above can be taken one of two ways by the readers by how the word "apart" is understood. "Apart from Christ," i.e. this is the only way to salvation, or we are standing apart from Christ, "we are all the same." i.e. we are all sinners, or we are the same only through...

Yes, your definition is just one of the ways that "apart" can be used in a sentence. If we take another four-letter word, like "take" it has around 75 different contextual meanings, like, "take a seat" which can mean, "to sit" or to "carry," or "to take a trick" means "to win a trick" in a card...

Looks like you did not understand that a very different meaning was intended with the word "apart," from the way you had intended the word "apart" to mean. Shorthand words do not always lead to clarity when used without first defining what they may mean. Context is very important to establish...

Hello, If people have eyes to see and ears to hear then they would see God's prophetic words that are relevant to today's events in the scriptures. What is happening in the Coalition of the willing nations that went into Iraq to heal the land rather than to destroy it in 2003? Jer 51:13-14...

That all depends on how we interpret the parable and what is presented in the scriptures. There are many who have eyes to see but do not see and ears to hear but do not hear. Understanding only comes when we have eyes that see and ears that hear, but sadly many still twist what they hear and...

Fred, I could not have said it better myself. Thank you for telling the above as a guide to identify Pharisees. Sadducees and religious hypocrites within the body of Christianity. Goodbye

Fred, while ever you use false claims and false arguments to sure up your POV, your standing on this forum will fall. Goodbye

Yes, and the imposters point their finger away from themselves implying that others, and not themselves, are the imposter with respect to God's recorded scriptures and His relationship with them. Oh well, such is life.

Yes, and the talents were a determined monetary value depending on whether it was a Talent of Gold, Silver or Bronze which was called a Talent and yes, the number of talents they were given was based on their ability to trade with the monetary value of their respective talents to make a profit...

Actually, Jesus was describing just one aspect of God's everlasting Kingdom, that will be established in around 20 years from now, where Satan's Good and faithful servants will apply the money, they are given by Satan, to impede God's Everlasting Kingdom to progress. You can choose how you want...

As Bill Gates believes, the world will be a better place in around 20 years' time let us wait until then. As what I believe has not yet unfolded, it is improper for you to dismiss what I believe until all of the evidence has come to its completion. Sadly, you have been posting many false...
