    Hello After having an association since November 1996, with Nepal, I would like to make the following comments. The Children in the countryside of Nepal have sufficient food to eat. The Nepal people who go out into the countryside of Nepal are the missionaries in Nepal. Nepal has always...

    The Fig Tree - symbol of the New Covenant Church

    The "promised land" was first defined in: - Genesis 13:14-17: - 14 And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: "Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are — northward, southward, eastward, and westward; 15 for all the earth which you see {that (entity)}, I will...

    The Fig Tree - symbol of the New Covenant Church

    I did and you had presented this statement: - Genesis 12:1 A righteous man called Abram was called out by God, to move into the Land, now called Israel. God promised great blessings to him. Not so sure of the biblical basis for this claim. God certainly called Abraham in the Abrahamic...

    Children in Nepal

    The children look like they live outside of the "big" cities in the countryside. Perhaps you can tell us where the children live in Nepal.

    The Fig Tree - symbol of the New Covenant Church

    It is the context that we must find in statements like this. What type of death was Jesus referring to? What is the time span between when Jesus made this statement to when He will return? If we consider that the time span was going to be 3,000 plus years between when Jesus ascended and when...

    Revelation 9 - The Arabs

    The Locust of Rev 9 are who? How did they end up in the bottomless pit? When did they go into the Bottomless pit? If a person can answer these questions, then they will have a better understanding of what is being said in this passage. The Locusts in Rev 9 are the Kings of the earth, fellow...

    The Fig Tree - symbol of the New Covenant Church

    That is the question that you have to resolve when you have an understanding of the right context for verses 25b-26. Your understanding has been gleaned from a bad theological understanding.

    God Shall Govern The Earth

    ^^^ Psalm 67 The last line's context reads thus: - God shall bless us; and all, until the cessation of the earth, shall fear Him. Presents a very different understanding.

    This is what I posted, QUOTE="Jay Ross, post: 1705801 I think you need to delve deeper into the meaning of the Greek words before you start to expand on what you believe was meant in the original Greek texts. The traditional translation reads in this manner: - 25 Lest you be wise in your own...

    I think you need to delve deeper into the meaning of the Greek words before you start to expand on what you believe was meant in the original Greek texts. The traditional translation reads in this manner: - 25 Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery...

    How was your day?

    That is good news. However, you can also hand them the broom and mop. You may be surprised just how helpful that is, in you circumstances, at the moment. They can be just as effective minding the baby while sweeping and mopping your place.

    WAR IN ISRAEL — PROPHECY

    Still trying to hold the carrot out in front of the Saints to join your Pre-trib rapture. Since the Ezekiel 38-39 army is still over 1,000 years into our future, do you not think that a call to the harvest is a much more worthy task that the Saints should engage in rather that to encourage the...

    The Fig Tree - symbol of the New Covenant Church

    I have a very different take on this parable. Israel was given a warning in Ex 20:4-6 that they would be punished for the idolatrous worship of the fathers in the first and second ages of their existence and that the iniquities of the fathers would be visited upon their children and the...

    How was your day?

    @Wynona taking time out of your day to catch up on your sleep, is not about you but your baby. Unless you look after yourself and catchup on your disturbed sleep, your ability to look after your baby will be compromised. The art of being a good parent is to learn what is required to be done to...

    A Better And New Covenant

    Ah Walter and Debbie, Does our salvation make us a completely "new person" or does it "renew us" so that we become the person whom God intended us to be from the beginning of time. Does not Paul tell us a number of times in his letters to "renew" {H:0365} the spirit of our minds and then to be...

    A Better And New Covenant

    The "New Covenant" view is one where we do not want to identify with the Jewish Covenant(s) and want a very different salvation from them. "Kaneous" has bee translated as having the English meaning of "new" which is age related like "Neo" whereas "kaneous" has no age aspect in its meaning but...

    A Better And New Covenant

    What about Adam and Eve, did God's Salvation plan for them only began at the cross? Reading on from the fall, it seems to me that both Adam and Eve had a working relationship with God after the Fall. Cain, Did God offer Cain salvation after his sacrifice was not accepted in favour of Abel's...
