    False Doctrine of the "Secret Rapture".

    I have no problem with that. :) But anger ~ and even hate ~ is not incompatible with or opposed to love. Ah, well, I would disagree with "spent," really, if you mean He totally exhausted His anger on Jesus... But even so, if the Father "spent His anger on Jesus" (whatever that means), then...

    False Doctrine of the "Secret Rapture".

    Hmm... I would submit, Ronald, that God's righteous anger is part of His love... is one manifestation of His love. And that has happened many, many, many times from the Fall until even now... and will until Christ returns. Grace and peace to you.

    Be Warned: Revelation 20 Is Not... A Current Reality

    Just to the OP: So, Christ was "pushing a false theory" ~ lying, as it were ~ in Matthew 12, when He said: "...if it is by the Spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you. Or how can someone enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first...

    Be Warned: Revelation 20 Is Not... A Current Reality

    ...like Davy. Yeah, there's a pot calling the kettle black if ever there was such a thing. :) Which, of course, nobody here really does. But there are some here who seem to think they themselves have supreme authority... or even any kind of authority at all... :) Goodness gracious...

    A Third Jewish Temple is Required

    Who's offering any kind of "excuse"...? And for what, even? Ah, I get it; you're just taking things personally again, and you're "hurt." Well, okay. Get over yourself, man. Do you not see a problem with the way you conduct yourself on this forum? Or do you just enjoy it? Does that give...

    A Third Jewish Temple is Required

    LOL. Well, I "came here" back in December... You're really just now responding to this? I guess people do keep bumping these things back up. But that's a bit odd. "...disrupt Apostle Paul's 2 Thessalonians 2 teaching about the ,temple of God,"... I don't even know what that means, to...

    ALL Israel will be saved

    Well, I believe that when Jesus returns to earth, all of Isreal will have been saved. But the issue here still is, who really makes up Israel? And what we know is that Israel will ultimately be made up of people ~ an innumerable multitude ~ from every tongue, tribe, and nation. Grace and...

    Before the flood is actually "after"

    Not even sure what you mean by this... but no matter. Well, with all due respect, you're "seeing" seems to be the issue. Seated in judgment... Right, with which the final harvest of all mankind will be executed, and the wheat separated from the tares... Ah, see, I agree with you here... at...

    Before the flood is actually "after"

    His coming on the clouds means that He's coming in judgment. His coming on a horse is his coming in battle and triumph, and to the rescue. John's Revelation is a picture book, to be read and "seen," really, like a fantasy novel... but of course it's all true. There is no "spiritualization."...

    The Character of God - Reader Poll

    That question sounds very loaded, Steven. Anticipating how you would probably answer that question yourself (and I would agree on its face), does true love always… “feel” good… to the recipient? Or, along the same lines, does true love always look/seem loving to observers? Grace and peace to you.

    The Character of God - Reader Poll

    Pinseeker: "We are talking about His Word, of course, all of which is God-breathed. Right?" "Assumption..." Hmmm... Assumption on the part of whom? Me? Paul? I mean, okay, that's fair, I guess... but troubling. Grace and peace to you.

    The Character of God - Reader Poll

    May I do it with Scripture? Well, no matter, I will anyway, as Paul does: "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown...

    The Character of God - Reader Poll

    It's not about "needing" anything, Lambano... except His forgiveness and redemption itself, which can only come through You-Know-Who... Indeed. Observed in others, and in yourself as well. Be honest with yourself. Indeed. "Neurotic?" As you know, I'm sure, Lambano, Jesus said, "Come to me...

    The Character of God - Reader Poll

    Well, neither Calvinists nor John Calvin Himself actually "came up with it." :) "The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually." (Genesis 6:5) Now, this was before Noah's flood, but do you think...

    The Character of God - Reader Poll

    Right, but again, there is such thing as a righteous, holy, sinless, loving anger, And this is always, without exception, the manifestation of anger from God. With man, of course, in his sinful state, it is a very different story. Two passages come immediately to mind; actually three, but they...

    The Character of God - Reader Poll

    Hmm... Based on posts you've made before, I hope the answer to this question is 'no,' but do you think Paul to be making a strawman argument? Humanly speaking, yes, it is reasonable. :) And an anticipated one. Many times, it is more effective to answer a question with a question, and this...

    ALL Israel will be saved

    So what you seem to be saying, Randy ~ correct me if I am wrong about what you are saying ~ is that outward Israel and inward Israel are one and the same. If so, no; see my post above (#11); yet again, "...not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel, and not all are children of...

    ALL Israel will be saved

    Right, but who (or Who) decides who belongs to that nation? Is it based on one's ethnicity? Or is it based, rather, on God? Again, as Paul says at the end of Romans 2: "...no one is a Jew who is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical. But a Jew is one inwardly, and...

    ALL Israel will be saved

    LOL! "All Scripture breathed out by God" and "Thus saith the LORD" are not equivalent statements to you? Well, okay, yeah, to each his own, for sure, but... :) And you also; grace and peace to you.

    ALL Israel will be saved

    "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness..." [2 Timothy 3:16-17] Grace and peace to you, Cyd.
