My answer to this is that there are only 2 generations. The generation that belongs to Christ and the generation which does not. The end of the age will sort everyone out regardless of timeline or place in history. In Matthew 11:16 Jesus was surely not speaking to everyone at that specific...

Just a question about Luke 21:36 Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man." If pretrib rap is false, why is Luke exhorting us to pray for escape during the time just before Tribulation...

Do you believe that aliens from another solar system/galaxy exist and have come to earth? [I used to, but no longer do] Does the bible mention aliens? If so, where? [I don't believe so] If aliens exist, are they actually demons/fallen angels? [I do believe so] Will there be an end-times...

Actually, there are a few references to names being blotted out of the book of life. How does Calvinism defend against them? Question: Why does Revelation 17:8 (and maybe Revelation 13:8, depending on the translation used) refer to those “whose names were not written in the book of life from...

I believe God does speak and interact with his children personally and that we grow into this relationship. But I don't take visions, vibes, rhema, messages from others as authoritative (especially not over scripture)

Are you saying its metaphorical for what exactly? To me, the virgins represent professing Christian's. Half were foolish and didnt work out their salvation, desire the will of God, purify themselves or have a relationship with the Lord while the other half did. The passage compares the...

Again, comments like this are highly condemning in nature. You can't tell another person that they have no peace with the Lord based on a few posts that you disagree with. I feel the need to refer you to Matthew 7:3-5

No offense scottA but you probably shouldn't be accusing others of blasphemy in this thread. There's no need for it

Then they are not abiding in Christ and Christ may cut them off.

1 Peter 3:21 states that the true salvific baptism is not about "removal of dirt from the body" as in a dunking or sprinkling of water. If it were, then Paul would have spent much more of his ministry physically carrying out such a ritual or his work would have been for naught. 1 Corinthians...

Thank you as always, Hidden

Strive to make your calling and election sure. Thanks for your insightful post.

How do we who are born again interact with the Kingdom of God now and what does it mean to truly see it? To myself, I interpret this experientially as well as symbolically. I think of the interactions of the members of Christ's body working in unison to nourish and strengthen one another in...

It is. When Jesus returns, the Spiritual will overlap with the physical. When Jesus returns earth doesn't become the Kingdom of God (that is heaven) but He does rule the earth at that time, which is supernatural. Jesus breaks through the veil of natual/supernatural.

You totally lost me.

Hey all! I was just reading 2 Corinthians and these passages stuck out— 18] All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19] that God was reconciling the world to Himself in Christ, not counting men's tresspasses against them...

Jeez more people need to vote!

Good point.

From separation from God due to their sin.

Question in title :) I say yes.
