    What is Mystery Babylon?

    No, it is all the same kind of condemnation. People claim to believe in Christ on both sides of the aisle and you think you have this ability to invalidate their claim. You do not have the knowledge or authority to do that, no one but God has. By their fruit you will know them. So are you...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    @ Lizbeth, Ziggy, Amigo de Christo This is my challenge for anyone else who despises, hates and condemns Catholics. Go and engage many Catholics and ask them if they believe in Jesus. Wait outside their church and ask them as they come out, "Do you believe that Jesus died for your sins and rose...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Here you quote scripture that contradicts your opinion of Catholicism. They believe in Jesus - ask any of them. Why don't you stand outside if a Catholic Church on Sunday and greet people coming out and ask them if they believe that Jesus died for their sins and rose on the third day. They will...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    You are wrong and quite judgmental. You have no knowledge of what the Holy Spirit has in mind for anyone. What you have just written is vile. Catholicism's focal point is the death and resurrection of Christ and the Bible (which is larger than ours, having additional books). Yes they believe and...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    I know and believe that, but how do you know if someone is or isn't born again? By their fruit _ of the Spirit! And specifically there is a list: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, self control, faithfulness. So when we see those who have this fruit, and we see it grow...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    No, but I do know Catholics believe in Jesus. I have had many family members who were Catholic. It is not a religion without flaws, but a Christian religion. I am a Protestant. And you know this because the Holy Spirit told you? Christians can discern good from evil and evil spirits. Certain...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Then I guess you think that of me? Faith is a gift, not something you manufacture. God gives out those gifts and no one can take them away! The only prerequisite I know for salvation that Jesus requires is to believe in Him, That He died for our sins, was buried and rose on the third day...

    WHAT ALMOST ALL PREMILLENNIALISTS DO NOT NOTICE OR REFUSE TO SEE

    The Bottomless Pit/Hades is part of the 1st Earth, deep beneath the crust, likey the core. The 1st Heaven is our atmosphere. The 2nd Heaven is outer space/ the universe and so together, they are "the first heavens". The Millennial Kingdom will exist in the 1st Earth. Days and years are...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    I interpret "hot" as inspired by the Lord, hungry for His Word, seeking Him earnestly. I see "cold" as uninterested, lack of motivation, complacent, but also unloving. I see the rich Laodiceans, in need of nothing as not really evil but not really doing much good for anybody but themselves. They...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Head in the sand? Oh, and you are on the higher walk -- in the clouds? We are all sinners and have done the same things as the unbelievers. What's the difference? We have been forgiven and follow Christ AND soon will be taken out of the world. Trip and fall we may, but as my Pastor used to say...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Satan certainly reigns over the unbelievers confusion and the false religions outside of Christianity, atheism, occult etc. Btw, we aren't building His Kingdom, He is. He let's us participate, but His will, His perfect plan, is done and always has been done and will be done as He ordained it so...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Oh I think Jesus is very precise when it comes to who is in charge, where and how long and all current events are under His authority. Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Sorry about your Dad. Strokes happen to people of all ages. Our bodies fall apart as we get closer to death. It may sound like a coincidence, that the vaccines caused the stroke, but I don't think so. The Covid vaccine causes blood clots and that is a fact. My 18 year old nephew had a blog clot...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Thanks for getting this thread back on track , we'll maybe. As I also brought to the attention of Episkopos in posts #69 & # 82, BABYLON IS THE EVIL WORLD SYSTEM composed of all false religions, philosophies, the occult, Astrology, all generated out of that ancient city, Babylon. When God...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Did not say that. Discern that the Spiritual Body of Christ, those who have been washed by His blood, born again, are the Church. Sin has been forgiven. He predestined us, called us, justified us, gave us the gift of eternal life and will glorify us. It seems you are obsessed with sin that has...

    What is Mystery Babylon?

    Your "sermon" on Mystery Babylon is FALSE, in that it wrongly portrays a mysterious aberration and disfunction in the Church. It has absolutely nothing to do with the Church - which is the Body of Christ. You claim that this Mystery Babylon began in 325 AD, with the Council of Nicea, with false...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Really? WPM (Without Perception or Meaning) cannot discern that in Rev. 7:9, "a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Getting tired of spoon feeding you. Go back and look again. 2 places. Rev. 7:9 & Rev. 11:15. Same event, two different vantage points. You need to come out of the alternate reality that you have created first. Don't think you're capable though. Again, thanks, it's all good.

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Answer in Rev. 19:20-21 Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone. 21 And...

    Where was the Sabbath Abolished?

    Well to be fair, Mr. Confusion runs alongside us, he's a common annoying participant in the race. We know in part and see dimly. It is clearer to some that we are justified by faith alone. It is also clear that once we are saved, we have a responsibility to be obedient to His commandments - not...
