For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. And He is the head of the...

What constitutes the scriptures? What specific scrolls? When did they start and when did they finish? Or have they finished? Lastly, who determined the above?

So are you saying the 5 foolish virgins are like those Paul rebuked who having started in the Spirit had gone back to the flesh and law which couldn't bring life. Therefore like running out of oil had to go back to the Spirit before returning to Jesus to find they were too late and missed out...

So are you interpreting this parable in such a way that it could be like as Paul said of the Jews, some natural branches were cut off because of unbelief while some continued to abide in the Vine? That in the end when the cut off natural branches are grafted back in then all Israel will be...

Thanks for responding. My experience has taught me this, to get to know God, accept the revelation His Spirit brings by whatever means He chooses to use. For you it appears to be through the scriptures. For me it's through the pictures or parables He gives me diectly. For others it's through...

Ok. Baptised, filled and sealed with the Spirit guaranteeing our inheritance. Cool!

When did the Word of God the Father Who became flesh, then become a book? When did the Person transform into a compilation of scrolls? Are you saying that every word that proceeds from the mouth of God is contained in 66 books? You lost me there.

Also the Spirit doesn't always give me an answer straight away. So if I don't answer its not that I'm avoiding you but it's that I haven't received an answer from Him.

I gave you my answer already. See one of my previous posts if you are genuinely interested. I'm not one to side step being questioned. I appreciate being challenged. It make me go to the Spirit and find His thoughts and answers.

I'm surprised you are referring to the scriptures I quoted as nonsense. What was that again. Maybe I missed it.

God has caused things like this in the past. Zech 14:2 I will gather all the nations to Jerusalem to fight against it; the city will be captured, the houses ransacked, and the women raped. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be taken from the city. What do...

Sorry St Steven if I've taken it off topic.

It's in your bible my friend. What is your interpretation of these passages? I'd be keen to hear your take on it.

Well, are you able to respond to the 3 quotes from your bible I posted, at the very least. Tell me what was going on there?

Jesus was preparing His followers to be ready for His return way back then. Those who carried out His business while waiting for His return made it into the marriage feast. Those who didn't use what they were given and were not ready for His return found themselves outside where there will be...

“Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ 12 But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’

Just a quick question. Are you refering to human history, beginning to end?

Even if it was 100% accurate, which God hasn't made it so, it would make no difference. Why? Because it is God's responsibility to ensure that His plan, be it general or specific will come to pass. And His responsibility to ensure His words are comprehended by the individual. Again, those...

Yes. Agreed. All is going according to the Creators script. Very comforting.

I would add, that the 10 had the oil, but the oil didn't equate to a relationship. Because the Groom said to the foolish 5, even with their oil lamps lit, were told, I never knew you. So could the oil be the Holy Spirit, the Spirit (oil) Who guarantees the 10 virgins inheritance. I guess if...
