    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    Yes, we know that it was, but at the time, did Abraham know that this test was to come upon him? Who wrote Genesis? Not Abraham, but Moses who lived at the time of Israel’s deliverance…Abraham was 100 years old and Sarah about 90 when Isaac was born. Isaac was about 25 when his father was asked...

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    Am I? Or am I speaking against the words that Christendom promotes concerning death? What is death if not the very opposite of life? Can eternal death be understood in those terms? Do we not understand ‘opposites’? Eternal death is eternal punishment…..because it never ends. But since the dead...

    Is Antisemitism caused by hatred of the Sabbath?

    I understand your concern, (and thank you) but biblically speaking, I can find no mandate for Christians to observe the Sabbath, because it was part of the law that God “took out of the way,” so that Christ’s sacrifice alone covers our sins, if we obey his teachings. We are not under the law of...

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    Yes, it is important to understand each word in their original language as the ones writing intended the meaning.…not as someone else interpreted that writing according to their own beliefs after manny centuries have passed. “All scripture is inspired of God”…..translations are the work of men...

    Yes, it is important to understand each word in their original language as the ones writing intended the meaning.…not as someone else interpreted that writing according to their own beliefs. “All scripture is inspired of God”…..translations are the work of men. We need to do our homework...

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    Yes….after sin entered both realms, the testing and sifting of his intelligent creation (both angels and humans) had to go to the appropriate degree, or God’s purpose could not come to its proper conclusion. As Isa 55:11 states… ”So my word that goes out of my mouth will be. It will not return...

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    I see that a little differently to you Ritajanice. God’s omniscience is his ability to know all things, but he can limit what he chooses to know to accommodate the free will of his intelligent creation. All of the things that God has chosen to do revolves around the choices they have made...

    How long is a Yom? 24 hours? Genesis 1.1.

    Dinosaurs were extinct before humans were created….the “days” in Genesis were not 24 hour periods. All animal creation was on the 6th day. Read your Bible. True Science and the Bible cannot disagree….science is the study of God’s creation. It’s theoretical science that fights with the Bible.

    Is Antisemitism caused by hatred of the Sabbath?

    If you check Jesus’ teachings, you will find that the principles of those important Commandments were incorporated in just two…..which he said the whole of the law and the prophets were based on. i.e. ‘ love God with one’s whole heart, mind and soul…and to love one’s neighbor as one’s self’...

    How long is a Yom? 24 hours? Genesis 1.1.

    If the Jews counted their days from sunrise to sunset you might have a valid point….but the Jewish day began at sunset and ended at sunset….”evening and morning” is half a day and only in the dark hours.

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    God gave all his children free will….without which no choices could have been made, and it would have been pointless to offer them, and their consequences. Think about that. God did not plan for the devil to rebel. If Adam and his wife had simply obeyed their Creator, we would not be having this...

    Hiroshima…the untold story.

    Why do you think he was alone in his version of war, as somehow “justified”? Only a person who was indoctrinated with political thinking could do so. Just because he did not carry an actual weapon, didn’t mean that he did not support the war effort. Medics patched up the wounded to go out and...

    Is Antisemitism caused by hatred of the Sabbath?

    I don’t think you understand our position @Hobie….we do not have a specific day of the week to worship Jehovah because Christ abolished the law of which the Sabbath observance was a part. No specific day of the week was needed for Christians to worship and serve the true God. Christ proved that...

    Is Antisemitism caused by hatred of the Sabbath?

    Since no Sabbath observance was mandated for anyone but Israel, why would their day of worship have anything to do with why they are apparently hated in the world? The Jewish people as a culture viewed themselves as somewhat superior to the people of the nations because of their special status...

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    Absolutely! Short version? I am not good at short versions (as readers well know) because it’s the detail that confirms whether something is true. Yes, you are correct…..we only exist because two people combined their DNA to produce us, and before that conception, we did not exist, making our...

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    No sorry, the devil’s ancient global religious systems cater to every taste and were supported almost universally by the governments of the nations they operated in. In man’s history, religion has too often been the power behind the throne of those in rulership……but in our day, when “Babylon the...

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    If that means excluding all doctrines that find their origins in original Babylon, then yes, we have carefully examined every one of Christendom’s doctrines and traditions and thrown out the ones that are clearly not part of Christ’s teachings…….and as Jesus said, ‘the wheat would be separated...

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    Tell me please what evil was not perpetrated by the RC church in its inquisitions. History tells us. Yet all religions have been involved in the wars of history and every evil perpetrated in war was sanctioned by the churches of Christendom as well as the false religions of the world. True...

    Who or What is Babylon the Great? How do God’s people come to be in her?

    You misread what I said…I did not say that ”the whole of Christendom is Babylon the great”……I said that the whole of Christendom is “PART of Babylon the great”….Original Babylon was the city from which Nimrod spread his false religious ideas.…carried all over the world when God confused their...

    Hiroshima…the untold story.

    Are you old enough to remember an old song, well known in the Vietnam era by a singer named Donovan? It was called “The Universal Soldier” and it’s message was powerful….in previous wars patriotic sentiment was whipped up in propaganda campaigns and men were willing to lay down their lives in...
