    WHO ARE THE TWO WITNESSES IN REVELATION ?

    I quoted, Earburner, verbatim, Jesus's words in John 14:26, and again here: "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you." Yes, in John 15:26, Jesus does say (and I quote), "But...

    Christians have Freedom to Fail?

    Absolutely. Well, our redemption was accomplished, yes. But sin will not be absolutely "taken care of" until Jesus comes back. But... it's going to happen. :) On a human level, Matthew, is a parent not angry ~ in a loving way, hopefully ~ when his or her child disobeys or misbehaves? Well...

    Christians have Freedom to Fail?

    Hey, Matthew, you really should just walk away from Robert, as he is so obsessed with the completely wrong-headed idea that God does not condemn sin itself and somehow overlooks or even encourages sin. This is what he foists onto Christians ~ those in Christ ~ who understand, in stark contrast...

    Christians have Freedom to Fail?

    LOL! Yes, run away, Robert... Grace and peace to you.

    WHO ARE THE TWO WITNESSES IN REVELATION ?

    Not sure what version you're quoting ~ misquoting, hopefully ~ from, Earburner, but, well, here's John 14:26 (emphasis mine)... "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you." So...

    Christians have Freedom to Fail?

    "Once again"? Really, Robert? That's all I've been doing for the past several posts, turning back around what I had previously wrote that you had turned completely into something it was not. LOL! See above. Please suit yourself. I said what I said, and you completely turned it into...

    WHO ARE THE TWO WITNESSES IN REVELATION ?

    Well, I'm not grievous, but rather amused. And reproof is a wonderful thing... when it is valid. :) Grace and peace to you.

    WHO ARE THE TWO WITNESSES IN REVELATION ?

    LOL! Wow. :) Okay well, we can agree to disagree. Oh, wait, sorry: Thou and thy brother can agree-est to... disagree...est. :) Wow. Grace and peace to you, LTWBV.

    WHO ARE THE TWO WITNESSES IN REVELATION ?

    To you, sure. In your opinion. Well, that's too bad, but I'm fine with that. It is what it is. God is what He is. Grace and peace to you, Earburner.

    WHO ARE THE TWO WITNESSES IN REVELATION ?

    Not to restart this whole conversation, but as I said early in the thread: Today we call the two witnesses the Old Testament and the New Testament, respectively. One or both may be on any one (or possibly all) of... your bookshelf, coffee table, and/or bedside table. :) To be more clear, in...

    Ark of the Covenant in Heaven?

    What Paul says to the Christians in Ephesus (and to us) is very instructive here: "So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being...

    Ark of the Covenant in Heaven?

    Okay, after all this, I will wave away one thing, and one thing only, dad. You. :) Well, your... misunderstandings. Because I've tried to allay them, but apparently to no avail. But certainly, by all means, if you so choose, stick to your guns... :) Grace and peace to you.

    Christians have Freedom to Fail?

    Well, no, but your ridiculous twisting of it ~ and then wrongly foisting it on "OSAS" believers ~ it is what I am rejecting. See that's the thing: I didn't make up what you're saying I made up. At all. But yet you continue to beat that dead horse. Astounding. No, just wrong stuff. And...

    WHO ARE THE TWO WITNESSES IN REVELATION ?

    No, I think you're just reasoning it out and stating it clumsily and wrongly. I would agree with the first half of your statement here. But to the second half, I would restate that, saying that God had to provide a Mediator for us to satisfy His justice and thus reconcile us to Him. You know...

    WHO ARE THE TWO WITNESSES IN REVELATION ?

    Okay, well, I would say "between"... Jesus is the mediatory between the Father and man. He is our mediator, mediating to the Father on our behalf. But okay. Most of the rest of what you have said since my last post is very... "colorful." : As I said above, Jesus is seated at the right hand...

    Christians have Freedom to Fail?

    Of course we have freedom of choice, but that's beside the point. The freedom is that even if ~ really when ~ we make the wrong choices and fall into sin, we can never be separated from the love of God in Christ Jesus. And when we do fail, the Spirit never fails to convict us and then draw us...

    Christians have Freedom to Fail?

    Another misdirection thread. What a surprise. :) Right, meaning if we fail to completely avoid sin ~ which we will, unfortunately, in this life ~ we can still rest assured that Christ has redeemed us and we can do nothing to separate ourselves from God's love in Christ. This is Romans 8 in a...

    Ark of the Covenant in Heaven?

    Well, I would say that there were never really any sacred objects, but rather objects used for sacred purposes... except for the one true Object that the ark, surely an object, pointed to. :) Now, "lost and buried"... we don't really know that, either, but I'm not arguing about that, per se...

    OSAS Revamps it's Image: Not Sinners nor Saints

    In your extremely flawed opinion, as I and other posters here have clearly demonstrated. Your accusations are completely empty, Robert. And, hey, who seems to be condemning who, here? :) I am totally with you regarding antinomianism, though. But even those we should not condemn, but rather...

    Ark of the Covenant in Heaven?

    And true. No, read the article again, dad. Surely your ability to comprehend is better than that. Read it again. And again and again, if necessary. So you do seem to understand. Well, good. Yes, the lid was an object lesson to the Israelites of old, and they knew that, actually, because...
