    Sin and repentance

    If you're talking about sexual behaviour/ issues, bugalugs, my approach is to cry out for help. It's not necessary to second guess God. He knows my heart better than I know it myself. He knows the worst about me but thinks and speaks the best about me. I am his beloved child....and when I dwell...

    The broad spectrum of Christianity VERSUS the narrow-minded view

    If you've married because your hormones got the better of you or you married because it was arranged, maybe out of the feeling of obligation? it probably makes little difference if you didn't love or trust. The relationship, if it lasted, would no doubt be one consisting of the feeling of...

    Revelation chapter 20 - Gog and Magog

    I am not saying what you have concluded from my statement. As for the rest of your objections, I will leave you with them. Why? Because we see from different paradigms.....and just as you have concluded erroneously from what I have said, so you will with anything else. I have no interest in...

    Revelation chapter 20 - Gog and Magog

    I read it as self explanatory. 21-22 We die because of Adam, we live because of Jesus 23 Jesus was the first man to be raised to life, then God's people are raised to life. 24 The end of human history as we know it.

    Revelation chapter 20 - Gog and Magog

    My denomination? John is seeing a panorama of events and is focusing on various aspects of what he sees. He is giving us 'snatches of information' as he watches this panorama unfold. This is not a strict timeline of events. The second death implies a second resurrection. This is the...

    Revelation chapter 20 - Gog and Magog

    It's talking of the 'shining' , not its speed. It will shine from east to west. In other words the whole sky will be alive with angelic beings coming with Jesus. '.....then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son...

    DOES NO ONE WANT TO BE CORRECTED?

    @Dan Clarkston @ScottA Both your answers reveal you don't know. Why not just come clean? Why skip around such a vital question?

    Has anyone tried pottery? Fried, baked or boiled?

    If you think you know then maybe you can share it?

    Revelation chapter 20 - Gog and Magog

    I didn't think you would take this onboard, not that it matters,....although I could say more why I consider this, so let's drop it. My conjecture, and I emphasise 'conjecture' in this case, was an attempt to join certain (unspoken of) dots.

    Revelation chapter 20 - Gog and Magog

    Yes, you are right. I misread your previous statement. I apologise.

    Like I said, its conjecture but not impossible or out of the question.

    Revelation chapter 20 - Gog and Magog

    I'm not familiar with anything saying Jesus will return in the blink of an eye. What I do know is that Paul says we will be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 You have misunderstood the very text you are quoting about the 'blink of an eye' Jesus said it...

    DOES NO ONE WANT TO BE CORRECTED?

    Yet the question has not been answered, 'What is THE Lie?' We can juxtapose it with 'THE Truth' to get an idea, so we must ask, what is THE Truth?

    Revelation chapter 20 - Gog and Magog

    I see 2 Peter 3:10-12 as referring to John description in the latter half of verse 9 of chapter 20 of Revelation. Rev. 20:9 There will no doubt also be geographical turmoil associated with Jesus second coming. What follows next is only conjecture. My guess is that the second coming will take...

    When the Son of Man Comes:

    The spearhead of all your messages is punishment, Keraz. You appear to relish the details of 'punishment' whenever you post. Human history has taught us, if it has taught us anything, that threats of punishment do not give people motivation to change. They in fact make people more determined to...

    Yada in Greek means - to know God, discern. How does God see our spiritual condition.

    Of course Jesus knows what our spiritual condition is like. The 'admonishments' to the churches in Revelation 2 reveal this. If we are to use words of different languages to convey something, being mindful of what we are saying is helpful. For example, 'father' in German is pronounced 'farter'

    Revelation chapter 20 - Gog and Magog

    I do not agree with this synopsis. It is not the conclusions that emerge when I read Revelation.

    Hello from Kathmandu

    Dan, in case you haven't heard from other sources, you sabotage your opportunity to interact meaningfully with your mocking, your ridicule and the various put downs you practice including your attitude of superiority.
