    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    Spiritually there is neither Jew nor Gentile, male of female. But that is our invisible nature in Christ. ON EARTH _ STILL IN THIS FLESH _ WE HAVE AN IDENTITY. I see a photo of a man with a mustache next to the name Peterlag. Are you saying that there is no such thing as a male Christian? Is...

    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    11 I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles. 12 Now if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more their fullness! 13 For I speak...

    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    H E L L O Perterlag, Romans 11 was written to the Romans, the Gentilesm Christians in Rome. Paul is speaking to Gentile Christians and is talking ABOUT THE ISRAELITES throughout the whole chapter. Wow, if you fail seeing that, then it is likely you misunderstand lots of scripture. If I recall...

    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    Read Romans 11. Paul makes a clear distinction between Jews and Gentiles. He identifies himself as an Israelite. A remnant 1/3 will be saved - "all Israel" as it says. God is not finished with the Jews, but obviously you are. Many of them are in the Book of Life. Have you seen who is in there...

    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    Absolutely. And spiritually there is neither Jew nor Gentile, male or female. But I am still on earth and an American male. I do know my descendants are from Italy Slovakia, Russia and Israel. It is obvious many Jews throughout their past 25 generations have mated outside their bloodline, but I...

    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    Wow ... lol .. what statement! Over 15 million Jews are just imagining themselves to be Jewish, have faith in the God of the Old Testament, attend Synagogue and by golly they even formed their own imaginary nation of Israel in 1948, accepted and ratified by the UN. They are being attacked in...

    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    I would define one as against, in opposition to, an enemy of whom one hates, rebels against as many of us once were. Oh, I wouldn't say I hated him, I was just blind, rebellious, indifferent, dismissive to anyone trying to proselytize me. But then the Father had other plans, praise God. Yes...

    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    " ... the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God ..." 2 Thes. 2:3-4 The Antichrist is called the Son of perdition. He doesn't...

    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    Just from what you posted here, I can see why the "Didache" wasn't accepted as cannonical. Scholars have stated that much of it is copied from Matthew, paraphrased, as many priests or pastors might do with any if the scriptures. It doesn't make it wrong just redundant. #3 caught my eye...

    The Didache on the coming of the world-deceiver: What 1st and 2nd century saints were taught

    If the GT happens soon, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei would be my guess to be the Antichrist or the false prophet. Although they are supposedly waiting for the 12th Imam. He is 84 and the leader of the most funded nation of terrorism and desires Israel to be annihilated. This war now of course is...

    Unforgiveness and fellowship with God

    Becoming sin for us is not something we can comprehend. Imagine taking on trillions of sins for all time ... and knowing them), one has to be omniscient to do that. There is that kind of spiritual eternal knowledge that we can't fathom. We can barely comprehend the totality of our own sins...

    Dating the NT Books

    Most scholars would place the writing of Revelation at around 95 AD. The Church of Smyrna didn't even exist in 70AD and wasn't mentioned anywhere else in scripture. Polycarp ( who was a disciple of John), was said to be the first Bishop of that church and he was still in diapers! Polycarp said...

    And Jesus Came And Spake Unto Them, Saying, All power Is Given Unto Me In Heaven And In Earth.

    Let's get some perspective here. When Jesus said ALL POWER AND AUTHORITY has been given to Me, He didn't mean all that power was given to you too. Lol A minute portion is given to us to do similar and greater things than Jesus did _ on His mission _ ON EARTH, such as healings, resurrecting...

    What is the gospel?

    YOU have it backwards! First of all, we are justified by faith in Christ, His work, His righteousness, not ours. But we are all like an unclean thing, And all our righteousnesses are like filthy rags; We all fade as a leaf, And our iniquities, like the wind, Have taken us away. Isaiah 64:6...

    What is the gospel?

    Absolutely! Our spirit has to be perfected to be "in Christ". It is a done deal. So that if at any moment we died suddenly, our spirit would go directly to be with the Lord. "To be absent the body is to be present with the Lord."

    And Jesus Came And Spake Unto Them, Saying, All power Is Given Unto Me In Heaven And In Earth.

    His Almighty status was returned to Him. He is the CREATOR, and the AUTHOR of our faith and all this prior to being born. He relinquished His glory/power to become a human, then after His death/ resurrection/ascention, it was returned to Him. And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself...

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    Thank you for the spelling correction, actually my computer assumes these words I don't want - I have keep after her about that. Well, we disagree and there is no resolve here ... so take care.

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    This is a hard passage, but you err in your interpretation. "Imprisoned spirits" here are not souls or men, they are the fallen angels whom He imprisoned in Tartarus during the time of Noah. You err again. He descended from Heaven, then ascended back into Heaven. Paul alludes to (Psalms 68:18)...

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    Right, there were two locations, Hades and Paradise. Hades was yet divided into another deeper location, Tartarus, reserved for fallen angels were separate from ungodly souls. >> Many don't realize that Jonah died quickly - he wasn't kept alive for three days! Otherwise, his experience would not...

    Apokatastasis in the early church

    I wouldn't know, I'd be blind. Dying and then being ushered into Hades would be a shock. But you would immediately know why you were there as the Rich man did in Luke 16. Romans 1 discusses the state of fallen man. 20. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly...
