    The Great Apostasy

    I've noticed that younger generations have far less engagement with the churches I've attended recently. I look around and see the pews packed with older folks, but youth seem to be a rare sight. Is this a sign of the times? In a few more decades, churches are foreseeably set to lose a sizable...

    Problems with the New Earth?

    That's what I'm trying to figure out. The passages seem to suggest that we will be interacting with a new earth while residing in a new heaven. Why would a new heaven require glory and honor from the new earth? Is it a symbiotic relationship? Will the new earth have unfettered access to the new...

    Problems with the New Earth?

    Revelation 21:1-5 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. 2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a great...

    Quick review of Revelation 17 (kjv)

    Quick review of Revelation 17 (kjv) First off, let me start by saying I am in no way an expert on Revelation. My studying of the bible has always been personal (just me and God) and I've never studied it in an educational setting before (though I aspire to one day). For what it's worth, this is...

    Parable Of The Wicked Husbandmen

    Just wanted to add this one. Ezekial 16:59-63 59 Yes, thus says the Lord God: I will deal with you as you have done, you who have despised the oath, breaking the covenant; 60 yet I will remember my covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish with you an everlasting...

    Parable Of The Wicked Husbandmen

    I always took the vineyard as representating the world in general and the produce of the vineyard as the pleasing righteous deeds and faith of God's children. Those surrendered and controlled by the Holy Spirit would be ripe with fruits of the Holy Spirit in God's vineyard (spiritual Israel)...

    Rapture and End Time Beliefs

    Well, this world is getting worse by the day. God is going to judge it and condemn the elements in it that reject his sovereignty and holiness.

    2 Thessalonians 1:8

    So your saying someone could be baptized in water, have no belief in Christ and still be saved... Is that correct earnest?

    Do you believe in aliens?

    That doesn't say "Daughters of man are those not in relationship with God." Not sure how you're inferring that.

    BAPTISM SAVES, FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS"

    If immersion in water was what saved people then Paul would have spent more time doing it. Acts 2:41 Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day. ^all 3000 of these new Christian's were not dunked in water yet the bible states...

    Do you believe in aliens?

    That's interesting brake light. I don't believe in other alien races on other planets because Jesus Christ is fully God and fully Human. So unless there are other humans on planets far away, I don't know why Christ would claim to be their God if they aren't even human.

    2 Thessalonians 1:8

    Water baptism is only a shadow of the reality of true regeneration.

    2 Thessalonians 1:8

    One obeys the gospel by putting your faith in Christ's finished work on the cross for salvation and you endeavor to live life in such a way that imitates Christ with all your heart, mind, soul and strength.

    BAPTISM SAVES, FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS"

    Oh look, it's this one again! Water baptism is a man performed ritual and man performed rituals in and of themselves do not save.

    Do you believe in aliens?

    But aren't they still active in some way? Don't demons get their marching orders from the fallen Angel's?

    Pre-Trib Rapture is Dead!!!

    But if the church remains, why would the bride of Christ mourn instead of rejoice that Christ had returned? It seems to me saying that Christians aren't around.

    Pre-Trib Rapture is Dead!!!

    Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man --KJV other translations mention having the strength or being strong enough to escape. But this scripture is speaking about strength of...
