In the previous thread we were discussing what the NEW JERUSALEM is: WHEN WHERE WHAT Some believed that it's a place and some the bride of Christ. I'd like to continue this discussion.... @Eternally Grateful @grafted branch @Keraz @quietthinker @Lambano @Marty fox @JohnDB Hope I...

I can't give examples - not a scholar - however, we do know for sure that the newer bibles are more correct in translation due to all the new information we've found....older manuscripts which are closer to the time of the writers, Dead Sea Scrolls, etc. Just would like to say that I think it's...

I agree with all of the above SS. Except your last sentence. THEN what IS the SOURCE?

I have a 1986 NASB with duck tape on it. Paid it a pretty penny back then too, but it lasted all these years. As to John 5:4....how do you like this: I never noticed that verse 4 was missing !! My NIV (Zondervan 2008) also has the footnote BTW, but it's not my main bible. The NASB, which is...

Sorry Matthias I hate using my phone for this. Just saw the link. Also I tried to Google John 5:4 and it sent me to this thread!

You shoulda posted the verse for the lazy bunch! LOL There are a few problems in the Bible. Was a census ever taken? How many days and nights was Jesus in the tomb? My reply would be simple... We have to decide if God exists. We have to decide who Jesus is. Mistakes are man-made. We're not...

Great Post EG! So much information. Haven't studied this much, but it's how I understand it to be. A new place - the New Jerusalem, and it'll be inhabited by those that followed Jesus.... I see it as a real place and not just a spiritual place, although it will, of course, be spiritual too. I...

There's a church in my town that believes a person could be saved after death. Unfortunately, it's the only protestant church around here - so, no can do. Two comments: 1. What idiot, after dying and seeing that everything taught by Jesus IS TRUE.... and is given a second chance... would be...

@Eternally Grateful Sorry EG. Too late here and too tired. I owe you 2 posts... tomorrow.

Grafted branch, Not being well-versed in end times theology, the above is a lot to take in. I will do this, but tomorrow morning - kind of late here right now. Will reply then. Thanks!

It's not the belief in eternal life that's damnable....it's the CONSEQUENCES that it creates in some persons.... those that believe that they're behavior does NOT matter... This could be damnable and I gave the verses. Hebrews 3:14 comes to mind 14For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed...

I've studied it a lot EG. I always thought it was spiritual. But I'm starting to wonder. What about the Last Supper? THIS IS MY BODY which will be given up/broken for you.... then Jesus broke the bread...the bread/His body. And John 6:53 is different from the other words that mean "to eat", it...

That's very nice of you. I come here for fellowship and to discuss the word of God and to share thoughts and beliefs and to study the word of God. We can disagree but still be civil to each other. I like to read posts carefully because I don't spend a lot of time here and cannot use it to...

Wow. You can judge souls. Wonderful. Guess God went on vacation and left YOU in charge. Read Matthew 7:5 a few times over until you understand it. Try to have a conversation instead of INSULTING the other member...in this case it was ME. @Eternally Grateful is a nice person and a normal...

I'll have to agree with you here. But regarding the Eucharist, I know for sure that about 80% of Catholics do not believe in transubstantiation. Honesty, the more I read John 6, the more I'm tending to believe that either that is true, or at least, the Real Presence. I say this because of John...

Did you see my post no. 337 re the above? It explains why I disagree with OSAS so much... which you actually might already know.

Well, you're here now. We might as well put you through the ringer! sml Same ole' stuff. OK I guess.

It proves, in plain sight, that indeed the left wants to remove God from everything and depend on the religion of atheism. Of course there would be no absolute morals because WHO would decide what they are? So we take everything away, God, authority, morals.... and what's left? The crazy world...

OK So we disagree. I'm going by Revelation 21:1-2 1Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. 2And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for...
