Hi there, @VictoryinJesus, I found this interesting. Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

'Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.' (Exodus 20:12) Hello @VictoryinJesus, The verse (above) was the first commandment that had a promise attached to it. That cannot be denied. What you have done is given examples of...

Hello @VictoryinJesus, I am sorry to have made you want to scream. :) But where Paul is obviously giving practical instruction in regard to manner of life, why should we seek to impose another meaning upon it? With love in Christ Jesus Chris

'Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise ) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.' (Eph 6:2-3) Hello @post Would you please explain what you mean when you say that the commandment with promise is about Jesus? That...

Hello there, @FHII, I don't see the need to spiritualise this, for the instruction of a Father and Mother is such that will protect the child from the dangers this world has in store for them. For example, I taught my children to look up and down the road and back again, to listen and look...

Hi there, @Pearl, I have not been following the thread, so do not know what has been said previously: but, looking in, your entry looked a little lost and alone here, unremarked upon and lonely, so I thought I would say, "Hi", and come alongside you for a moment to look at what you have said...

Hi @devin, I hope all is well with you and yours. :) The washing machine is whirring away, and my husband has been preparing the tins and cutting the greaseproof paper, ready to make three Dundee cakes, as gifts for Christmas. So I have the anticipation of spicy smells issuing from the...

'For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of Him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of...

'Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.' (2 Timothy 2:15) Hello @soul man, This is an important subject, and I am glad you have raised it. In the verse above Paul urged Timothy to raise himself above the strife...

'And He cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto Him, and besought Him to touch him. And He took the blind man by the hand, and led Him out of the town; and when He had spit on his eyes, and put His hands upon him, He asked him if he saw ought. And he looked up, and said, "I see...

Hello there, Yesterday I saw a beautiful rainbow in the sky, ahead of me on the road I was travelling on as a passenger in a car, driven by my daughter, and I though of God's promise that He will never again destroy the world by flood, and I thanked Him for His promise. 'And I will establish...

Hi @devin553344, It is 8.00pm and I am sat at the dining table, looking ahead through candle light at my husband doing his favourite jigsaw: it is of steam engines within Wales. He has done it so many times that he doesn't need to look at the picture on the box. He is in lamp light, and I...

Greetings from Wales! Today has been sunny, but it grew cold in the afternoon. I love these autumn days, with the colours that this season brings. (Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness) :) Chris

Hello @Marty fox, As I read about the Maccabees and the Old Testament beast Antiochus Epiphanies I can understand why you believe as you do about the prophecy of the 70 weeks. I read that:- Antiochus Epiphanies was a Greek Hellenistic king of the Seleucid Empire from 175 BC to 164 BC. As...

Hello @Robert Gwin, This undoubtedly very silly question, has taken you on quite a journey: thereby achieving what you intended. Though it can be broken down and addressed in segments and reveal profound truths concerning God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ His only begotten Son:- The...

Replies#358 & #380 Hello @Robert Gwin, I believe it to be literal. Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello Robert Gwin, Why are you repeating back to me, what I myself have said? In Christ Jesus Chris

) 'And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the...

Hello @Robert Gwin, If you read my post, you will see that there is in fact no inconsistency, for the presence of the Gr. article, translated, 'the', substantiates the fact that John 1:1 is referring to 'The God' and not 'a god'. That is a grammatical fact. Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello @Enoch111, With the greatest respect to you, I fear that you and all like you, who speak in these terms are deluding yourselves. Certain news media and politicians within your country have certainly done a good job! It's a tragedy to see and hear what is being said in the wake of the...
