    Black racist reparations panel in California approves up to 1.2-million-dollar payments to blacks living in Ca.

    I thought claiming sexual assault 30 years after the fact was ridiculous. Usually there is a statute of limitations with crimes. ??? Slavery was a crime and those who were slaves at the time should have received reparations. Didn't they? I thought they were given 40 acres of land to farm? That's...

    Black racist reparations panel in California approves up to 1.2-million-dollar payments to blacks living in Ca.

    $1.2 million won't fly, not even half that- they can't afford it. Initially theh thought $400k. Reparations and paying off college loans is a scam to get their votes. They have no intention of paying that. They'll lure them until the election and then you won 't hear about it until the next. The...

    Do deceived people with a low IQ spend eternity in Hell?

    Probably a billion people are Buddhists. Intelligence has little to do with it. This guy is probably in a better position to be evangelize to Christ than Stephen Hawkings was. He was a genius with no room for God and so died the fool. I never saw a photo with Stephen Hawking smiling. There is...

    People claiming to have seen Heaven

    These folks are giving a testimony of an experience that they know will be mocked and ridiculed. They know that most people would label them crazy or liars and a cuse them of being motivated by money or publicity; yet they are compelled to tell ther story. Who would want that spotlight for a...

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    Your assessment is off. "By their fruit you will know them!" It's that simple. The fertile soil (the heart of an individual that God has prepared), receives the seed (Gospel) and continues to nourish that seed with the Word of God, so that it matures to the point of producing good fruit. The...

    Do you guys think that Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) is mostly positive or negative for humankind?

    AI will be implemented in the New World Order. This is how they will monitor our lives, buying, selling, health, wealth, beliefs, ... And this is how they will control us since it would be impossible on an individual bases. Billions of bits of information in seconds, following constantly...

    Parable of the Fig Tree

    Yes, and one generation equals 70-80 years according to Pslam 90:10. We are close!

    Sheol vs Tartarus

    Universalism is a fallacy! It sounds nice but according to the Bible, it is just not true. Abraham in Luke 16:19-31, states there is a separation, a gulf (chasm) between those who are saved and those who are not and there is no hope for them other than their destruction. That btw, is NOT a...

    Hades, Hell ... not the same place!

    "Loosed IN the river Euphrates"? What were they disguised as aligators swimming around _ on a leash? A demonic horde is released from the ABYSS which is opened in that area. A volcanic eruption opening up a fissure may be a likely scenario. Remember an angel fell from heaven with the key to the...

    Hades, Hell ... not the same place!

    Your view nullifies the Great White Throne Judgment. Think about it. The GWT Judgment is the final judgment. All reprobates _ in Hades _ will then be thrown into the Lake of Fire. Death itself, Satan and demons will be cast into this Lake as well and destroyed. If Hades is the same as Hell...

    Hades, Hell ... not the same place!

    200 million are released from the Abyss during the Great Tribulation along with Abaddon. (Rev. 9) So then there is something worse then Hell, the Lake of Fire? Hades is destroyed in the Lake, which is the final judgment.

    Hades, Hell ... not the same place!

    Unbelieving souls go to Hades (the underworld, but separate from Tarturus, where the demons are) and await their final judgment. The second resurrection will involve the inhabitabts of Hades and they will be thrown into the Lake of Fire, which is Hell. Hades isn't Hell and that is a...

    The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus

    IT IS NOT A PARABLE! This is not symbolic language, and is to be taken literally. Why? Parables DO NOT include specific names of real people, like Abraham, nor his spiritual location. Prior to Christ death and resurrection, Sheol was divided into two locations, one for the faithful to God and...

    Does God love burning people in hell?

    IT IS NOT A PARABLE! This is not symbolic language, and is to be taken literally. Why? Parables DO NOT include specific names of real people, like Abraham, nor his spiritual location.

    War in The Middle East - likely the one!

    Here we go again after a lull for a month; more fighting provokes an emergency meeting of UN Security Council. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2023/5/11/israel-palestine-live-news-gaza-rocket-unit-commander-killed https://m.jpost.com/arab-israeli-conflict/live-updates-742478...

    People claiming to have seen Heaven

    You are mistaken. Another book came out around the same time by Alex Malarkey, The Boy That Came Back From Heaven" -- that was a fake. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2015/jan/21/boy-who-came-back-from-heaven-alex-malarkey Heaven Is For Real is about Colton Burpo. Pastor Todd Burpo, his Dad...

    People claiming to have seen Heaven

    "Heaven Is For Real" is a good book, made into a movie - watch it. It is an account of a four year old boy on the operaring table who left his body while under, saw angels who sang to him, spoke to Jesus and relatives who've past on that he never knew about. Before he was born, his mother had a...

    Is my understanding of the timeline of end-times events accurate?

    More of pushing Universalism again! "IN CHRIST" all will be made alive and bow a knee. In Christ means you gave been born again. You believe in and follow Christ. Judgment and destruction comes to those who don't along with the first heavens and first earth. Once the New Jerusalem comes down...

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    I scoffed at evangelists for Chriat before became a Christian. When you are spiritually blind, you resort to common rational reasoning, your senses, experiences, knowledge, etc.; but even so, "since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since...

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    You can't be selective with guilt. It cones on you suddenly when you do something wrong, bad, say something hurtful and as soon as you do it, it is like a rush of adreniline. Can you control adrenaline? How about embarrassment, that rush of red, opps I got caught with my zipper down or hand in...
