    Hi Michael V Pardo, I personally think that the true believers are watchful in their spirits for the Lord to come. Marilyn.

    Hi from Aussie land.

    Hi r4hnsn, That would be a good idea to post those topics so all can be encouraged. As to how my hubby & I came to the Lord - We were both brought up in Christian homes but eventually had to make our own decisions to receive the Lord. I went forward as a teenager in the Billy Graham...

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    Hi Phoneman777, I hear what you are saying & although it sounds feasible, we need to take into account the transition time from Pentecost to Israel`s final rejection of Christ. As we know the Apostle Peter declared to Israel – `Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God...

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    Hi Phoneman777, I actually think that the scripture you are referring to says `AND UPON THE ISRAEL OF GOD.` That looks to me like a difference. What do you think? `And as many as walk according to this rule, peace & mercy be upon them, (Body of Christ) AND upon the Israel of God.` (Gal. 6: 16)...

    Apologetics of low interest in churches

    Hi OzSpen, Thank you for your interest in what I believe. I am a pre-tribber however with differences. I`ll just give a quick view as obviously each will need to be discussed. 1. Dan. 2. (feet & toes) Not the revived Roman Empire, & Dan. 7. Contemporary view. 2. `catching away,` purpose of...

    Hi from Aussie land.

    Hi r4hnsn, Thank you for sharing some of your journey. How amazing to just up & off. Well it seems like you have a deep hunger for things of the Lord. And to have been able to see many places around God`s earth, how wonderful. I`m sure you have many exciting & funny stories. I`m always `all...

    Dan 2,7 & Rev 12,13,17 Study

    Hi brakelite, And what evidence scripturally other than a symbol (iron) do you have for thinking the last empire of Daniel 2 is the Revived Roman Empire? I have read all your history but am referring to scripture to support your claim. Marilyn.

    Who Is "the Restrainer" In 2 Thess. 2:6-7

    Hi Polar, Good topic. Now as it is the Holy Spirit that is building & maturing the Body of Christ under the direction of the Head - Christ, then we can be assured that He will restrain man`s agenda. This will be till the Body of Christ comes to the unity of the faith under the guidance of the...

    Apologetics of low interest in churches

    Hi OzSpen, That`s great that you are a voice out there for those topics. People need to hear a clear voice so they are not swayed by their `feelings.` As to Eschatology study. I have been taught different in some details than many others, so have been presenting them to our friends over many...

    Apologetics of low interest in churches

    Hi Ozspen, I think that is a great area that needs to be utilized more - the media. So many people read news papers etc that we would never reach in our daily lives. They can read the topic at leisure & think about the points. A very good avenue. I have in the past written into the Shep. news &...

    Hi from Aussie land.

    Hi r4hnsn, Well how is that, you went to Te Nikau. I stayed on campus for about 3 months & really enjoyed myself. I do love NZ & think the people & the country are quaint, nice & friendly. Where have you travelled to? A girl friend of mine has travelled all over the world, in backpackers etc. A...

    Hi from Aussie land.

    Hi OzSpen, I found this forum by Googling Christian Forums & checked it out. Liked the headings & read some discussions. People seemed to be discussing God`s word well. We live on a beef & hay farm. It is towards Kyabram. I do know the Shep Baptist as they have a very nice building south of...

    Hi from Aussie land.

    Hi r4hnsn, The land of the long white cloud, ay. Been over your way many times as have had relations there. Did the Milford track when I was younger & even went to Bible College at Te Nikau north of Wellington at Paraparaumu. Do you live N/S island? As re Shep. yes we are a fruit growing area...

    Apologetics of low interest in churches

    Hi OzSpen, I have been appreciating your topic & read most of it. Some interesting points have been brought out. I agree that apologetics is not specifically taught in the denominations, however as many of us (here in my area) are now functioning in small groups we are more focussed on why we...

    Hi blessedhope, I agree that man will try to bring religious unity & that will be the false church. However I was referring to Jesus` words by the Holy Spirit through the Apostle Paul to the Ephesians, concerning the `Unity of Faith.` This is not an out ward coming together but all the truths...

    Hi from Aussie land.

    Hi OzSpen, My hubby, Trevor remembers the show as he has lived near Shepparton for most of his life. We live on a farm not too far from there. We do like travelling north & seeing the great outback. Brisbane, as I remember is like a big country town. All the best, Marilyn.
