    What is speaking in tongues?

    Instead of wasting your time participating on forums such as this, you should be out there performing miracles, miraculously healing people, prophesying, telling everyone wonderful things that is over and above what God has revealed to us, speaking in "tongues" to unvelievers so they can be...

    The strange wording of Isaiah 43:10

    Similarly strange wording or phraseology is also found in Genesis. See below from a previous post of mine elsewhere. Genesis 6:6 "6And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart." Why does the above say "on the earth"? If the earth was the only...

    The strange wording of Isaiah 43:10

    I find this wording to be very strange. See if you agree. Look at the word I've highlighted and ask yourself why it's there or if the paragraph would be sufficient without it. But with it, what is or could be construed to be inferred? I'll say no more. Isaiah 43:10 10Ye are my witnesses...

    If Hitler were to have repented for his sins before he died, would he have gone to Heaven?

    Anyone who repents and is baptized will be saved. I know for a fact that Jeffrey Dahmer became a Christian before his death. He repented and was baptized into Christ for the remission of his sins, no different than the Jews on the day of Pentecost that were responsible for the death of Christ...

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    That it is; a myth

    When a believer dies, will he be with God as a sentient being right away?

    If you believe the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, then yes. And by believer, that must mean a saved individual and not one that simply believes since belief alone saves no one. Edit: Just to clarify my above statement. Lazarus was comforted in Abraham's bosom at his death but not...

    Why is the book of Revelation so hard to read and understand?

    First of all, it was written to the 7 churches of Asia in their time, not to us in our time. What was it suppose to mean to them??? What does it mean to us??? It's for sure symbolic, so what do the symbols mean? This is where and how it gets highly confusing and speculative. If it's written to...

    Do we choose to repent?

    No one can repent for you, you must repent on your own volition which in so doing constitutes " choice "

    Is speaking in tongues necessary for salvation?

    Where does it say or remotely infer anything of the kind? NOWHERE in the bible! Just a casual reading of the book of conversions will tell you how to be saved and it has nothing whatsoever to do with "tongues" which also do not exist today. So how are we saved today then? Once again, the book of...

    Does God have wings?

    The only problem when reading God's word, is determining what and when something is to be taken literally and not, and then what you ascribe to the words that you selectively choose to take as non-literal. It becomes subjective, and we then also say, for our convenience, what we feel or think...

    Is “Easter” in the original Scriptures?

    Only in the kjv, one of its few anomalies. The Greek word is 'pascha', which is passover, but the kjv translators took it upon themselves to substitute Easter because of the overlap of that pagan celebration which coincided with the passover at that time.

    Does God have wings?

    I simply quoted the scriptures and stated no personal position. Read them and decide for yourself.

    Does God have wings?

    God is spirit not a spirit or ghost. And regarding my post, I have no idea if God actually has wings or not; I'm simply pointing out what the scriptures say in many places that raises that question. Does it matter if he does or doesn't? No

    Does God have wings?

    The "real bible" is the original language, and for the NT, that's Greek. As I already stated to you, ck out the interlinear, the original Greek language. There is no 'a'. And also look at other translations. The kjv and only a couple others stuck a 'a' before spirit. Look at the new kjv, the...

    Does God have wings?

    No, God is not a spirit, but the correct translation is God is spirit (not a spirit) meaning God is the life force, energy, etc. Check out that scripture a little more closely and see the interlinear. John 4:24. The KJV is NOT the correct translation.

    Does God have wings?

    As strange as it may seem, there are scriptures we typically overlook, suggesting that God has wings; not a wing, such as 'take you under his wing', but wings, plural! Psalm 57:1 1{To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul in the cave.} Be merciful unto me, O...

    Steps for divorce?

    There's only one reason for divorce and that's for infidelity.
