    Reader Poll - Where did the Bible come from?

    I believe the closed canon points to continuism, as opposed to ceasationism. Joh 10:27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. That's on loop for repeating as often as required. All through the Bible the exhortation is to hear what God says. It's a major issue for those...

    See, keeping you sharp. I believe the closed canon points to continuism, as opposed to ceasationism. Joh 10:27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

    I pray about everything and regularly receive Divine Revelation, particularly about how to solve problems, even ones like Maria.

    Not to me it doesn't. It just means enough God-breathed communication is captured in written form by which to compare all things. 2Ti 3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

    There is only one true church

    My post stated as much. History shows things going so awry that a distinction had to be made between the early Christian assemblies and the pagan state religion of the Roman Empire that later assimilated Christianity, portrayed in Revelation as one of the heads of the beast from the sea.

    Amen. Catholic but Not Roman, or Anglo-Catholic as Anglicans are sometimes described. Sent by you: Meaning and etymology of catholic Certainly! The term “catholic” has a rich...

    Where did Christian Universalism come from? - New or old?

    They are often personified. Ask me why. Hos 13:14 I will ransom them from the power of Sheol.I will redeem them from death! Death, where are your plagues? Sheol, where is your destruction? “Compassion will be hidden from my eyes. 1Co 15:55 “Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your...

    Reader Poll - Where did the Bible come from?

    Such a claim needs to be tested. It may just be outside your knowledge of the Bible.

    Reader Poll - Where did the Bible come from?

    Quite often critics use arguments from the very source they are arguing against. That God is willing and able to work anywhere is a Biblical principle which doesn't need any extra-Biblical source to validate it.

    That doesn't negate the Bible canon, in fact it proves it. Heb 4:12-16 For the Word of God is living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing apart of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the...

    Media Empire Causing Terror

    We should expect and discern media harlotry as a product of Mystery Babylon the Great, its mother.

    Reader Poll - Where did the Bible come from?

    From my Christian Ministry Studies: Communities Ancient & Modern Accept the Biblical Canon: The term scripture is used by all and sundry to refer to any body of writings considered sacred or authoritative, or it can simply mean something written, so we must keep account of the context in which...

    I like to think I am familiar with every book in the Bible, having read and studied them all. Next comment.

    Is anyone else a Seer?

    Again, Scripture teaches the opposite: Jer 1:4-5 Now the word of the LORD came to me, saying, (5) “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.” Psa 139:15-16 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was...

    Is anyone else a Seer?

    The future does exist in God's Foreknowledge of everything that ever exists, whether material or abstract. The following four-dimensional framework serves to illustrate mutuality* in the Divine Dynamic. Dimension 1. Foreknowledge - God always knows everything, if He doesn't then He isn't God...
