    The Chosen

    Mark 9:40 For he who is not against us is on our side. Of course there are exception and some go too far, taking too much creative liberty and watering down or taking away the original message. However, our poor attempts to give witness--even our misunderstandings are no problem when...

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    You are correct that Jesus was that Light unto the gentiles (Isaiah 49:6). However the blessing upon all nations began with Abraham--and even Adam. Thus, just as David's crying out to the Lord regarding his own suffering, initially only regarded his own life experiences and words, but were not...

    Being in space and spiritual encounters

    "Down to earth" as Obadiah spoke of it, was to say: "rock bottom." Meaning, "Who will bring me down, as in a pit--there is no one?" Such a one thinks of himself as walking above--as if not being in need ("I am doing fine" they say, "I have no need of a Savior!"). Those "who dwell in the cleft...

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    No--you are under the wrong impression regarding such historic events. With such an approach, as Jesus said to the Lawyers, "you take away the key of knowledge" (Luke 11:52). On the contrary, what is written was and is to be "a light unto the gentiles" (all nations and peoples). Scripture is...

    "Is excessive interpretation the root cause of differences in understanding and doctrinal divisions in the Bible?"

    Even so, it has been the plan of God to "confuse the language of all the earth" (Genesis 11:9); and only reveal truth "precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little" (Isaiah 28:10); and not to "finish" until "the days of the sounding of the seventh angel...

    Being in space and spiritual encounters

    That does rightly make for a certain logic. However, to fully understand...space is the evidence of the great divide between God and this world. Which does not mean that the manifestation of space can be crossed to reach or find or physically touch the face of God. On the contrary, it cannot be...

    Do you think Paul had an out of body experience?

    Welcome! We call such experiences "out of body experiences" because we consider reality as "in body." That is wrong, it's just that it is what we are limited to at the time. Reality, rather, is that all experience is spiritual, and yet for a time we are without the Spirit-- This is what is...

    Vision Of A Container Ship And A Post Card

    The produce is come, some good, some wanting. A light shines in a desert land, but the message is restrained.

    Vision Of A Loaf Of Bread

    The bread (from heaven) is on the table, given and available. It need only be received. He who brings it turns to Him who gave it. Nothing.

    What are Beasts in Prophecy

    Unfortunately, in the "like a lamb" scenario, everyone would like to think their lamb is The Lamb.

    Vision Of The Lord

    Twilight, just before the dawn. Soldiers emerging.

    Question for everybody

    God is indeed, all knowing. But being "the same yesterday, today, and forever", although it shows Him as knowing all, always, and whenever, the issue of time passing is another matter. Time passing only applies to those within or subject to it, meaning: those of this world (of time). But the...

    What prophecies regarding Israel’s regathering have already been or are being fulfilled?

    One question, one answer: I answered your question in my last post, explaining that it was to show the gentiles (all nations, including Israel) that all were under the same condemnation unless God saved/saves them/us. So, no, the Law and the part of Israel, and their failure, was not...

    Question for everybody

    No. Faith, by definition, is limited to those who do not know all.

    What prophecies regarding Israel’s regathering have already been or are being fulfilled?

    Indeed, God set Israel as a light unto the gentiles--because that shining light pertains to all nations and peoples.

    What prophecies regarding Israel’s regathering have already been or are being fulfilled?

    It is your apparent bitterness that clouds your words, not the purpose of God choosing Israel. In fact, you have not stated it accurately. The purpose God chose Israel, was as a light unto the gentiles, as a foreshadowing demonstration of God choosing His own people from among all nations from...

    What prophecies regarding Israel’s regathering have already been or are being fulfilled?

    You were not "concise", so this question above is enough for a reply. To answer the above question: The first two paragraphs of your previous post seem to indicate that Israel was little more than a surrogate mother for Messiah. So now you have stated something more to correct what you did not...
