    The day begins in the morning, for Jesus was born on the 8th day of Tishrei

    Sorry Gilgal but we know Jesus was born sometime in autumn. But to Jews the day started when they saw the first three stars in the night sky. Israel counted days in Jesus day and before from sundown to sundown in honor of creation (Gen.1)

    The Rapture is About to Happen, Here's Why--Rapture?

    The rapture will happen like a thief in the night. All we can say with definitiveness is that it will occur anytime between now and before the ink dries on the 7 year covenant the Antichrist makes with Israel.

    Your Soul Is God-Given (Bible Study)

    You forget that man is born dichotomous- only a body and soul and as Paul wrote their spirit is dead because of trespasses and sins. It is when we are literally "born again" from the Spirit that we have a spirit that is made alive and from that point a person can have fellowship with god. Paul...

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

    Well as I do all I can to not allegorize, I have no forecasting skills. I do know that in these last days people do have itching ears and with "endtimesitus" infecting many Christians they will flock to any supposed prophet who has received "special revelation" from God or who knows how to...

    Saddam Hussein used 6,000,000 bricks of ancinet Babylon to build a 1/6 scale of the original city. On one side of the brick was nebuchadnezzars name and Saddam had his name inscribed on th eother side...

    If God is real, then how did Noah’s Ark happen?

    Well what evidence do you have that David was a "greatly random person" to Saul after the harpingf and defeating Goliath

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

    And your biblical support for this is....? Yes this is Mystery Babylon, th e mother of all harlots but not the city described later. -AAAH! The standard not subtle ad-hominem used by all allegorizers! Ba-bel means confusion Babylon is an Akkadian Word which means gateway of God! While...

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

    Now where is your biblical evidence to make this Babylon which is called a city 4 times to mean an oppressive system? Well as the religious system is called "Mystery, Babylon the great, the mother of all harlots and abominations", and the city is called Babylon the Great why do you force the...

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    Then you need to do a word study in the original greek and find out that this justification is not a universal grant but a potential grant to all sorts of men and not all men (all in Greek has three meanings like in english-- every one, or all sorts, or all of a specificied group.

    If God is real, then how did Noah’s Ark happen?

    Well Scripture does say that the evil spirit came from God. Is this so hard to accept given that God gave Satan permission to wreak havoc in Job's life? Or that God will send a strong delusion ot make people believe a lie in the end times?

    If God is real, then how did Noah’s Ark happen?

    He may or may not have known Daid well. We do not know how many times he played for Saul before returning home. How the servants described David also is an unknown how they knew. We just can ascertain for certain that Saul met David as a harpist, then remet him when David was determined to...

    Evidence for the Genesis Flood

    But the flood has much sceintific evidence to show it real. icr.org This is an organization with men with varying degrees in all the major fields of science. Some award winning and some even chairs at fully accredited secular schools. They have several books, hundreds of manuscripts and...

    Evidence for the Genesis Flood

    The antedeluvian earth was vasrtly different than the present day earth. Based on the Scripture and geological evidence: 1. It was Pangaea 2. There were no massive mountains

    Evidence for the Genesis Flood

    And the different flood theories at differing times is all based on teh failed radiometric and carbon form of dating objects.

    Evidence for the Genesis Flood

    That also would be incorrect. first we do not know the height where the water or vapor canopy was. Second if it was sufficiently thick enough , it would have blocked not magnified extra heat. We do know that the earth was a vast lush paradise and we do have the scientific evidence that shows...

    Evidence for the Genesis Flood

    This would be incorrect. Just look at the massive Ogalala Aquifer that waters most of the grain belt in the US. And there is global evidences of water openings where pressurized water would have poured out in volume. Howe Caverns, Crystal caverns and the many other caverns that have vast...

    If God is real, then how did Noah’s Ark happen?

    I see mentions and theories and suppositions. I also see you place high value on institutions that have high academic value. However many professors of Theology are not men of faith and thus have their own intellectual bias toward Scripture. What it ultimately boils down to, is not empirical...

    If God is real, then how did Noah’s Ark happen?

    Well you asked me why I believe why I do and I answered. what will reading others do for the issue at hand. I tried to best answer apart from opinion (though I did give a possibility). I do not see a conflict between 16 and 17 at all. YOu have something else?

    Why trust the "Early Fathers?"

    Yes this is all true. But as believers today we must take writings of all "church leaders" past and present and compare it to Scripture to insure their teaching is accurate. The church is not infallible, only the Scripture is. Yes it becomes a mess because people tend to privately intepret...

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

    Well let us return to your original point of contention. If you believe Rev. 18 must needs "decoding" then please decode it for us. If Babylon is not a city as it says then what is it. Who or what are the merchants? who or what are the ships? What do all those merchandise listed mean? And...
