But considering the meaning of the word talents back when Jesus was telling this parable, the "talent" represented a monetary value which was determined by the measured weight of metal that the talent was made from. So, your first sentence ignores the actual context of the parable and...

Ah Davy, I think that you shot yourself in the foot in your post above. The description of the Rev 13:13 beast matches the Little Horn of Daniel 7 & 8. The four beasts of Daniel 7:1-12 and the Little Horn also referenced in Daniel 8 are wicked fallen heavenly hosts who when they are judged at...

So, your memory is that poor then? Post #132, on August 26 2023, just ten days ago. You brushed off my comment that Satan has the lead role in the Parable of the Talents that he does not want people to know about, and your response was that you had never heard any teaching on that. Oh well...

@1stCenturyLady You dismissed what I had previously posted about the Parable of the Talents where Satan does not want us to understand that he is the "man" who goes away for a time. Have you ever considered what the fruit of the "Good and faithful Servants" is that they bring to their master...

Ah! Walter and Debbie, the views presented in the commentary from the Blue Letter Bible web site do not conform to the Bible context that is presented in the Word of God. It uses the Parable of the Talents to justify the expressed point of view. The question that needs to be asked about this...

If anyone is goading Matthew, it is you. All I have done is provide the scriptures based on the Hebrew Text's context that are contrary to what you have posted. I then suggested that you needed to spend more time in meditating on the scriptures before you teach. If that is goading, then so...

Well, you have convinced me to not put you on my list of people to follow. You are wacky in your understanding.

Ah! Matthew, you are missing what I have said. I said the possession of the prescribed land was a sign that God would give His people the whole earth at a future time. This land was given for a period of time and the nation of Israel lost their possession of that land because of their...

@L.A.M.B. Perhaps you should leave the policing to the moderators' judgement. Not everyone has the same sense of humor as you do. Sometimes in the humor posted we can learn a lot about ourselves. I would ask that you remove your post ^^ as it is not in keeping with allowing people to express...

Perhaps, but Rev 13:13 cannot be applied to the Maui fires. Rev 13:13 applies to a time over 1,000 years into our future. Please get you understanding right first before you fall for dubious religious cranks.

I thought that the now removed post was very reflective of many Christians today. Perhaps you want these Christians removed as well then? Sometimes we all need to lighten up and laugh at ourselves. That is healthy for us all to indulge in. Being the blasphemous police is unhealthy for you as...

This is what the scriptures state in Genesis 12:1-3 Promises to Abram (Acts 7:2-5) 12:1 Now the Lord had said[1] to Abram:[2] "Get out of your country, From your family And from your father's house, To a land/an earth that I will show you. 2 I will make you a great nation; I will bless you...

@Mr E perhaps I should have clarified why I got the chuckle. "How do molten pools of Alumnium dry out such that they dot the charred roads?" Perhaps I should have added, "Molten pools of Aluminum cool down and solidify, they do not dry out.

@Mr E I particularly like the opening sentence of the referenced article on the fires in Greece. How do molten pools of Alumnium dry out such that they dot the charred roads? I had a good chuckle about this reporters understanding of what went down in Greece.

The answer to this question is really simple. They are all wicked, rebelling, and fallen angels. I know this because the bible tells me so.

What you have posted is your opinion. You have made a claim that is not backed up with scripture or any other evidence. The Daniel 2 statue prophecy is all about the land of Babylon and the people groups who have had dominion over that land. The five beasts of Daniel 7 are not connected with...

Hello, Our understanding of Daniel is a man-made construct that satisfies our desire to know what God meant in all of the prophecies given to Daniel, particularly the five independent prophecies in Daniel 9:24-27. The answer as to the overarching time period of the Book of Daniel can be found...

AH! @Nancy, I feel like a fraud not expressing in a post what the spirit is saying. My prayer for you and Frank is that you both sense and know the presence of the Lord God with you during this time and also into the future. That you both would know God's peace as He draws you both further...

That awkward moment when a Zombie is looking for a brain and walks right by you. So true, particularly on this forum.

And what are your qualifications for your knowledge of how the fires developed and travelled. "Bush fires" are an open system. A scientific fact. I worked as a combustion engineer for many years. I have a mechanical Engineering degree. I have a working knowledge of how heat transforms...
