    The Twins

    So, what about all the Jews who have rejected Jesus in the past 2000 years? In many places it says "ALL Israel will be saved."

    The Problems With End Times Prophecy

    A novel disregard of Scripture. God says that his Covenant with Abraham and his seed is forever. When do you figure God decided to renege on his promise? "And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God...

    The Problems With End Times Prophecy

    To me, the primary pillar of faith and proof of prophecy is the existence of the nation of Israel. There are two major themes in the Bible. The first is the genealogy of Jesus, tracing His family tree from Adam through to his birth. Then it all stops. That theme in the Bible is now complete and...

    if you take depression medecine you know what....

    I have a few friends who are on meds, but none of them have anything good to say about them. They can't wait to get off. My doctor, who is a geriatric specialist, asked me how I was coping with the loss of my wife. I told him that a few glasses of wine throughout the day tends to take off the...

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    >> There was no let us make man. Seems to be in my Bible: "Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness;" Jesus was the creator of all things: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through...

    The Twins

    Then how do you account for a real pair of twins, Jacob and Esau? Jacob He loved and Esau He hated. And while there have been a whole lot of Christ-rejecting Jews, Why does God promise that ALL Israel will be saved?

    The Twins

    So, by their actions, they demonstrated their faith on a daily basis for 50 years. Your hypothesis is ridiculous.

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    The Book of Common Sense 31:7 God only reveals the tip of the iceberg. The first 12 chapters of Genesis covers 2500 years. "And there are also many other things which Jesus did, which if they were written every one, I suppose that even the world itself would not contain the books that would be...

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    Contextually crafted to help people with their understanding of the current era, but long before that he created angels and a whole lot of other weird beings, like "around the throne, on each side of the throne, are four living creatures, full of eyes in front and behind: the first living...

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    That is a rather presumptuous, if not totally ridiculous! Do you really believe that an eternal God was totally alone until Adam was born??

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    Never heard that one before. Is that something you read in the Bible??

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    These entities are indeed separate but joined together in unity. The Holy Spirit defines a being of multiple entities. We have multiple Holy Spirits, like the seven Spirits which were sent to the seven churches Rev 1:4; the "seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven...

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    @CharismaticLady When did Jesus say that there were millions of Gods?? When the Jews were seeking to stone Jesus for making himself out to be God. "The Jews answered Him, “For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy; and because You, being a man, make Yourself out to be God.” 34...

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    I was disagreeing with nothing you said. I assume we are gods because God made us in His own image. Just as I bear the name and image of my earthly father, I have chosen to bear the name and image of my Heavenly Father. Who knows what that will mean in the Eternity ahead. It’s going to be a...

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    A valiant effort on the part of false teachers to declare the inspired Scripture to be a lie, in an effort to give credence to their false monotheist ideology. Nowhere does the Bible say, that the plurality of God merely means “a ‘plural’ of majesty or excellence”. This lie originated within...

    The golden calf and the Trinity

    If you explore the literal translation of Gen 1:1, it reads: In the beginning, the Gods [Elohim] created the heavens and the earth. God doesn't say how many Gods, but the whole idea of limiting or reducing the infinite God of the universe to some sort of 3-in-1 imprisonment is a totally...

    To the heart that is heavy....

    That's just basic science and theology. Gen 1;1 says in the beginning. And we know that the beginning of the universe was something like 5 billion years ago. And Gen 1:1 was not the first day. It was in the beginning, before the first day. I am not adding anything to Scripture. I am just...

    To the heart that is heavy....

    I have never heard of Dr. Swanson. He might know something about the Old Testament, but he doesn't know squat about wine. I am not at all interested in the teachings of commentators. I read the works of most major commentators waaay back in c. 1974. I find the Bible a very easy read and study...

    To the heart that is heavy....

    As an experienced winemaker, I can assure you that wine always ferments to 11.5 to 12.5% alcohol. Those who proclaim that wine would have been more like grape juice are ignorant false teachers. After the grape harvest, grape juice starts to ferment into wine. And I have heard all sorts of silly...
