Interesting how a shopping mall (consumerism, people who shop till they drop) can be part of one's darkness. People can be lovers of money, preoccupied with material things. What arrogance that demon-like man had by saying, "you can't say that here" - for darkness is their territory and people...

The vision shows Him coming in the clouds for judgment. When the judgment is already determined ( upon His arrival), the door is shut, His word locked ... the Holy Spirit ( The Restrainer) is taken out of the way, the Rapture imminent. Just an impression I got. Obese people? Spiritually full...

The Grim Reaper looking down on the earth getting ready to harvest souls ... one is taken, one is left.

I wonder what they means? The Ark already in the sea and blowing in the wind? This would imply the chosen are already inside and we are currently in the Tribulation times, the elect have been chosen, called and secure in thr Ark (in Christ). This of course brings to mind the scripture: "But...

To say the church at any time is powerless, is to say that God is not sovereign. His plan is perfect and right on schedule. He factors in all our blunders and lackluster faith at times. The Bible says some Christians have great faith and some are weak; some mature and some infants. It's always...

>>Romans 5:8 He died for us when we were yet sinners and for me, befirebI was born. This is the greatest act of love, to give your life for someone. Sounds like you are contradicting yourself. If He has in mind and heart to save His Sheep, is not that love? He creates us, provides for and...

One day you'll figure out what God's sovereignty means and our contributions to His plan are manifest in this: God causes all things to work for good, for those who love the Lord, for those who are called to His purpose.

That seems to be a popular perspective, that we choose Hell. But technically, that is not a judgment then. When a person commits a crime, they made a conscious decision to break the law. When they get caught, they're arrested, put in jail to await their trial. Finally, they go to court, the...

Come on ... do you really think the Holy Spirit would deprive you of writing your inaccurate interpretations of scriptures ... nah. On occasion, He'll allow you to do something meaningful! Just wait ... it will come.

God works through us, He gets the credit. He prepares works forus to do in accordance to His Perfect Plan. We can do nothing without Him. We receive power and abilities, gifts and orders from the Holy Spirit. We cooperate with His plan. James is really saying, let's see the works/ fruit of the...

Matthew traces Jesus lineage back to Abraham, (Father of the Jewish nation, identifying Him as their Messiah). Luke's genealogy goes back to Adam, connecting Jesus to not only the Jews , but to all mankind.

Matthew's gospel is clearly written for a Jewish Christian audience living within the immediate proximity of the homeland itself. Matthew's is the most Jewish of all the gospels with MATTHEW opens with a geneology. This would be a meaningless introduction to Gentiles. The Gospel of Matthew...

This is a futile conversation, you do know. You are locked until your belief system. If 100 scriptures can't persuade you, nothing can. Christ will sort things out for you later. But let we warn you, if you live by the LAW, you will be judged by the Law. What we believe is that Christ's blood...

As the Protestant church, with it's numerous denominations has flaws, so does the Catholic Church. But God is merciful! False prophecies, false teachers, errors, lies and deceptions have been on Satan's agenda since Christ. "Confuse them, distract them", deceive them, let them focus on empty...

What really is the falling away? Is it Christians, losing hope and faith and abandoning Christ? Born again Christians will not do this. Those whose seed was planted in shallow soil and did not take deep root, yes. But let's further define this phrase, " falling away", the "apostasy". It is also...

Yes, many will fall away from faith, be seduced ... Well, I have nothing to worry about, I feel pretty secure in my faith.

Let'sbe clear about demons( fallen angels). They did not have the power and ability of their boss, Satan. If they had the ability to appear as angels of light, we would be in trouble. Jesus cast out demons who possessed people. As far as I know,the Bible doesn't mention even demons appearing as...

Aside from the descriptions given for the New Jerusalem ( Rev. 21), I believe heaven is like a perfect earth. We see mountains, valleys, rivers, grass, flowers, animals, etc, ...beauty. But when we look close, we see flaws, defects, imperfections. We look in the mirror and see an imperfect...

Does it really matter? What matters is this: For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we...
