    Taking Back Blessing & Benefitting From Lying

    No doubt. I didn't think had to do with lying, but bullying yes for sure... Harper. I always found the old testament amazing in showing the attitudes of the persons of the time. Really amazing things that we should all take notice of, and I guess that is why "the old testament scriptures -...

    Taking Back Blessing & Benefitting From Lying

    Reminds me of Rahab. Also reminds me of the wife of someone mentioned in Samuel. Perhaps Hannah and Panahana and their discoursing.

    Does Christian Universalism deny the justice of God?

    I’ve never claimed people go straight into the kingdom when they die… you ever read my threads? On those subjects… there may be some time involvement, there may be people moving out of the kingdom to the outside… There is a lot of speculation… but faithless people and faithful people are indeed...

    Does Christian Universalism deny the justice of God?

    I’m good and stand on what I’ve shared with you Steven, while you accept universalism and share your reasons, that’s fine with me. I’m not Yahavah. the God of Israel. It seems he has place for people who have faith in faithlessness? And those who are faithful… Inside or outside the kingdom...

    Can loved one come from paradise to temporarily comfort grieving spouse??

    My concerns of the afterlife with the descriptions of the Kingdom. Maybe there are people who then even so, can come to Yahavah. Of course it’s their choice to come from the darkness to the light. Yahavah is not a God of Force.

    Are you sending your neighbors to Hell?

    That’s where you’re confused. I don’t believe in “universalism,” period. That just says all people go straight into heaven when they die… the salvation for all being had I do believe in, but not everyone going straight into the Kingdom in the afterlife…...

    Are you sending your neighbors to Hell?

    Hello, Steven You Sent by you: Can you show me the bible verse that talks about hell being done away with by John in Revelation/ Copilot Sent by Copilot: Certainly! The verse you’re referring to is likely Revelation 20:14. It states: This verse describes the final judgment where death and...

    Yes hello again. Thank you for explaining how you feeling. There are objective truths in the bible. Then their are the subjective decisions in which one applies what they read to their life or not to some degree, and their is living by the holy spirit and personal sanctification which one allows...

    Random creative writings, by MatthewG

    July ??/24 What is the most important thing to you? Number one normally is family, friends, and perhaps mutual acquaintances is most certainly a qualifier of life each of us to get to behold right within our own Basin urn Call it living in a body, homeaway from home. A soul in a vessel...

    What kind of Study material do you use?

    Me and the Father have our relationship together. I believe during this time that I had ordered it. I was seeking for more information to be useful in terms of being able to make presentations and continue to teach and be able to have a good resource and information to go through and sift...

    Persecution today?

    HELPS Word-studies Cognate: 1375 diōgmós (from 1377 /diṓkō, "follow, pursue") – properly, pursuit (chase); persecution – literally, "the hunt to bring someone down like an animal," trying to suppress (punish) their convictions. See 1377 (diōkō). 1375 /diōgmós ("religious persecution") literally...

    August 24, 2024 All I wanted to do was The trigger, yes I know how to use it. Access to it is not easy, though, because a bullet whisp'd by and caught my aunty in the eye. Drunk Guy, late night, Michigan State. Was it a mistake? Was it is a choice by God, predetermined, or was it the person...

    Im glad you said this Who has the best relationship? Me in my opinion only. You in your opinion only. That's God making each and every one of us feel uniquely special to Him. But the absolute truth is likely something different...or maybe not. But God has assigned our path a long time ago. And...

    What kind of Study material do you use?

    What’s funny about this, I never ordered the book specifically ever. They accidentally sent it to me. I decided to keep it, and got a slight return I believe due to the error. Perhaps it was a blessing to have received. And to share now with you, the viewer, the commenter.

    What kind of Study material do you use?

    Wanted to share a few photos of this, study book, Holman. I do like it, it’s helpful in setting things up a certain way for you. Like circumstances of writing. And an outline, and there is also, cross references within the margins, along with commentary you can consider below the text to...

    The Coming One World Government

    We are under the administration of Christ today. The old religion of the past was done away with. That was the governing authority of the nation of Israel; before Yeshua came and fully ful-filled the Law, and Prophets.

    Persecution today?

    That sounds horrible. But if someone disagrees with someone that’s not persecution is it? Disagreeing with themselves believing in Jesus, doesn’t make them persecute you. Persecution would be worse… way worse than a disagreement?

    Just another day though. Anyway again, all I wanted to do was share… you know in the end I’m glad it comes down to faith…. While you can point out flaws, and help people try to understand. Some will just laugh in your face, or just say well your the one who is not right and then say your not a...
