Hi again marks, As per the NKJV and its translation of anomia and anomos, we have the hidden lawlessness at work and the undisclosed lawless one restrained from manifesting. Consequential to the disclosure and manifestation of the lawless one is the Lord's Return which results in the lawless...

Yes. At the apex of symmetry 1 is our Source Integer, 2 our only even Prime, & 3 our only Triangular Prime, because by formula all other Triangular Numbers are Composite. Pairs of TN's always add to the square of the larger number's iteration. 1&3=4, 3&6=9 etc.

And physical death, requiring physical sacrifice to atone for sin, otherwise the requirement of physical death for redemption from sin is nonsensical. Heb 9:11-15 But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that...

Hi Cooper, Scripture attributes physical death to the fall of Adam and reconciliation to the physical death of Christ. Rom 5:10 For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. Rom 5:12...

Yes, it is the tree of the knowledge of good and evil because eating of its fruit immediately gave Adam and Eve "experiential" knowledge of both coexisting paradigms, the good being their prior obedience to God's instruction. and the evil being their disobedience.

Hi marks, my friend. You ask: "What is being withheld?" Scripture tells us it it the disclosing of the Lawless One/that Wicked [Gr. anomos] Strongs G459 ἄνομος anomos an'-om-os From G1 (as a negative particle) and G3551; lawless, that is, (negatively) not subject to (the Jewish) law...

I recall telling my Childrens' Bible Class that if Adam & Eve had refrained from eating the fruit of the Tree Of The Knowledge Of Good And Evil, and remained obedient to God's instructions, they would still be alive today. Imagine their struggle to get their heads around that truth as they...

Theology 101: The reason they are not chosen is due to their lack of faith and refusal to repent of evil. God has predetermined that those whose stubborn, hardened hearts refuse His gift of salvation must suffer the consequences but has not predetermined their reprobation. To do so would be...

That's just your belief. You fret about what we believe, but you should be concerned about what you believe because when you find out you are wrong to nurture such disdain and bitterness, you will realise how foolish you have been to reject the love of God in Christ who died so that you might...

You must have led a sheltered life . . . Cessationism versus continuationism involves a Christian theological dispute as to whether spiritual gifts (Apostolic) remain available to the church, or whether their operation ceased with the Apostolic Age of the church (or soon thereafter). The...

Sequentially all prime numbers can be arranged in symmetrical strings. String 66 = 37 integers 840 to 876 and has primes 853, 857, 859, 863

So you must be looking for interaction and dialogue with Christians or you wouldn't bother with discussions of a Biblical sort. I hope you will be edified in a positive way, but some dicussions can get intense, as you may be aware.

I've been to Australia twice. In 2001 my wife and I toured in a campervan for 3 weeks. Two of her three sisters had emigrated to Oz from NZ in the '70s, and a few years after our tour we went back over to her niece's wedding at a Granchester resort, some way inland from Brisbane.

"Merry merry king of the bush is he." We learnt that at primary school in NZ. FYI, in 1854 my ancestors on my father's side emigrated to Sydney from England. My grandfather, who was one of 12, came to NZ as a young clergyman at the beginning of last century, and my father, who also became a...

You do know that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, and not of works that can be boasted about I hope. Also, when atheists resort to posting on Christian Forums I suspect they are not happy.

In Eph 2:8 the meaning is that the gift is salvation, it being by grace through faith. Without faith there is no conduit for grace to flow through, without faith there is no corridor for grace to be accessed. Rom 5:1-2 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through...

A whole bunch of Ceasationists effectively refuse the Gifts of the Spirit, and the Pharisees that persecuted Christ effectively refused God's gift of salvation in the Person of Himself incarnate.

In context it is certain the gift of faith mentioned in 1 Cor 12 is not supplied to all members of the body of Christ, but is the an enduement usually for a specific time. place, circumstance, activity or task. 1Co 12:9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the...

Belief that is coerced doesn't require faith, and isn't the result of faith, so it doesn't please God. Heb 11:6 Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.

The gifts in 1 Cor 12 are not salvic, and I believe they can be variously used, abused, misused, and disused. 1Ti 4:14 Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership. Heb 3:7-8 Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit...
