    GOD’S Punishment For Disobeying His Fourth Commandment = Genesis 2;1-3

    Hebrews 10:21-25 reads: 21 And [having] an high priest over the house of God; 22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold fast the profession of [our] faith...

    GOD’S Punishment For Disobeying His Fourth Commandment = Genesis 2;1-3

    No need to apologize. Most Christians didn't see that God changed the day of the Sabbath from the "seventh day" to "the first day of the week. We can't see it in our English Bible Translations, but Matthew 28:1 reads "In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the...

    GOD’S Punishment For Disobeying His Fourth Commandment = Genesis 2;1-3

    The word "if" can be found in Scripture over 1000 times!!! So tell me, if [pardon the pun] you are speaking the truth, which Sabbath do you think God has in view, The Seventh Day Sabbath or The First Day of the Week Sabbath? To God Be The Glory

    GOD’S Punishment For Disobeying His Fourth Commandment = Genesis 2;1-3

    I know you're a JW therefore, you will read and see Scripture in light by the presuppositions your church affiliation sees and understands. Indeed, eating and drinking or in respect of a festival or of an observance of the new moon or of a sabbath, are a shadow of things to come but the reality...

    Is it ok for a man to pray while wearing a head covering? Paul told the Corinthians it was NOT ok.

    Paul is definitely saying he is making a distinction between long and short hair. When Jesus was asked, "How shall we pray?" He said to go to their closest and close the door." And then He gave the reasons why [Matthew 6:5-13]. Are you unequivocally sure? Psalms 78:1-3 reads" 1.Give ear, O my...

    Is it ok for a man to pray while wearing a head covering? Paul told the Corinthians it was NOT ok.

    Sad to see that most Christians have difficulties understanding Scripture. Time and again, I've said that it's because they read the Bible like it is an ordinary book and not as a spiritual Book, that is....God spoke in parables and without a parable He did not speak! [Mark 4:34]. A parable is...

    Who is the Antichrist? Let's Put a Name on Him.

    But he has been identified by many Christians for over two thousand years now. But who is he since you know he is not a Jew or a Roman? To God Be The Glory

    Is seeking for Signs today, a lack of faith?

    AMEN! But most importantly, "FAITH COMES BY HEARING." Romans 10:8-18 reads: 17) So then faith [cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. 18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. To God Be The Glory

    And If I Go And Prepare A Place For You,

    True. However, it is Jesus who endures for us! He said this in John Chapter 15 specially verse 5: "For without me ye can do nothing." Or, as Paul put it in Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through Christ which strengthen me." To God Be The Glory

    And If I Go And Prepare A Place For You,

    I am good in the Lord. Thanks for asking and I wish both you and Debbie the same. Yes, indeed, there will be enough mansions in our Lord's Father's house as you well quoted in John 14. Revelation 21 is a very comforting chapter as well for all believers. However, before that can happen, Jesus...

    Knowledge.

    KNOWLEDGE For me, it is that who inspired and moved the writers of Scripture which is the Holy Spirit, Himself?

    What do you believe is the fate of elite, evil, Christians?

    It's a matter of reading and understanding the whole Bible, whose eyes have been opened by the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:4 reads: "According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:" 1 John 3:9: "Whosoever is...

    And If I Go And Prepare A Place For You,

    And If I Go And Prepare A Place For You, If Jesus prepared a place for the believers in His Father's mansion and is coming back for them; how will He do it? Just asking, since of course believers do know?! To God Be The Glory

    What do you believe is the fate of elite, evil, Christians?

    To the OP only, There is no such a thing as an elite, evil Christian!!! Either a person is save or unsaved. There is none in-between. A Christian is holy, blameless, and without sin. To God Be The Glory

    The Bible, God's word or mans?

    Might as well. I wouldn't want to come under the scrutiny of 1 Peter 1:15-16.

    We All Have A Choice To Make; Either Follow JESUS Or Suffer The Consequences Of Rejecting Him. II Peter 3;3-7

    Man in and of himself does not have the capacity or power to reject or not reject Jesus. Jesus said in John 15:16: "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the...

    The Bible, God's word or mans?

    Sezs YOU! Mark 4:34 reads: "But without a parable spake he not unto them and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples." 9 And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. 10 And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the...

    The Bible, God's word or mans?

    Most definitely I understand the principle of eisegesis and in fact, I call it (eye)segesis! In turn, do you understand that God spoke in parables and without a parable He did not speak? A parable is an earthly story with a heavenly meaning! Which one conveys truth that you would rather follow...

    The Bible, God's word or mans?

    Here is a king who called for his scribes to write an edict and have it posted in the town square. He got word that the words he dictated to the scribes were different from that what he had said. Guess what happened? That's right, their heads were cut off! Likewise, God moved [dictated] to the...

    The Bible, God's word or mans?

    Of course prophecy had no beginning with man!!! It is God's alone for He is the only entity that can give dictations concerning His will. It is like in an office environment where there is a "boss" and a bunch of secretaries and summons them to write a memo and begins to DICTATE and the...
