    if i wanted to become a catholic

    I am aware the church does not teach idolatry. Yet it does practise it. Graven images abound. I know, I was there for many years. I have witnessed the intense devotion of Catholics to Mary, surpassing even the devotions of many to their football teams etc which is blatant idolatry. And worse...

    The Galilean wedding is the model for the pre-trib rapture

    I remember several pages back you supplied a long list of scripture intended to support your theories. I read them. They didn't say what you are desperately wanting them to say. Every single one of them was a reference to the second coming. Nothing about a secret pretrib rapture. Ironically...

    if i wanted to become a catholic

    That kind of thinking is an inevitable result of the over inflated devotion given to Mary by the church. It borders on idolatry, and in many cases, and in many minds, is well over the border and is an ensconced citizen of darkness.

    The Galilean wedding is the model for the pre-trib rapture

    KJV Revelation 19:1-10 1 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: 2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with...

    What is the marriage supper of the Lamb?

    The Galilean wedding is the model for the pre-trib rapture

    All we need to do is quote Jesus. KJV Matthew 24:27-31, 39, 41 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. 29 Immediately after the...

    The Galilean wedding is the model for the pre-trib rapture

    It's both. Coming in the clouds, means coming with angels. Jesus comes with His angels, shouts, with the trumpet, and the angels are sent to harvest. There are no saints in heaven now, sorry from Moses and Elijah and Enoch and maybe a few others, and won't be until the resurrection. All the...

    The Galilean wedding is the model for the pre-trib rapture

    Not one of those scriptures says anything about Christians being taken away before the tribulation. Not one.

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    I quoted the very passages which teach that very thing in an earlier post. You rejected it. That's your problem, but mine.

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    A number of years ago, with an unprecedented appeal from Pope Francis to a combined convocation of Pentecostal and charismatic church leaders under the aegis of the well known Kenneth Copeland, a challenge was issued to all protestants worldwide. Anglican Bishop the late Tony Palmer claimed that...

    Why Antiochus Epiphanes IV Is Not The Little Horn - Part I: "in the latter time of their kingdom"

    Futurism is akin to a spiritualist version of pin the tail on the donkey. Blindly wandering through scripture and taking stabs in the dark based on imagination and fictional movies and books. The time of the second coming is closer than any of you think. Time to get serious about seeking truth...

    Why Antiochus Epiphanes IV Is Not The Little Horn - Part I: "in the latter time of their kingdom"

    How can anyone be so demonstrably certain and be so confident and assertive concerning something that perhaps, maybe, in some unknown distant or near future, and at the same time deny what has already taken place in the past?

    Why Antiochus Epiphanes IV Is Not The Little Horn - Part I: "in the latter time of their kingdom"

    Far out bro, that is one of the most desperate attempts to deny the obvious I've ever seen.

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Baptism in water is an outward public demonstration, a public witness, to the inward conversion of the repentant sinner. Such a demonstration can only be accomplished through water.

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    And death is precisely what baptism signifies. Buried, raised again. We cannot crucify and bury ourselves, we must rely on others, just as Christ did. Nor can we raise ourselves from the dead... That takes the Son of God to speak life into our hearts. The baptism of the holy Spirit is the next...

    No Law : Under Grace

    Agreed. Again, agree. I would ask a question... That word 'end'. I think you need to reappraise it's meaning. The same word in the Greek is used here... KJV Romans 6:21-22 21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. 22 But now...

    Left Behind: The Kids TV Series

    You would be taking a very serious responsibility teaching kids such fictional nonsense and heresy.

    The Amazing Heresy

    The Celtic church in Britain originated in Galatia, not Rome. The Galatians were Celtic. They had migrated there 300 years before Christ, leaving Celtic communities across southern France and northern Italy. For all those centuries they continued to commune with one another, trading and...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    The letter to the Romans was written sometime between 55 and 60AD. The church by that time had 30 odd years to be established throughout Asia, North Africa, and the middle east. Paul mentions baptism, which by its context cannot be connected to anything other than water baptism, in chapter...
