    Polygamy

    I decided to do a study on Polygamy. The Bible continually comes forth with a loud "NO!" that Polygamy is not okay. I ask that you please read through this, because you may learn something (you may already know all this though). The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a...

    The Beast, The mark. The number of his name.

    Quick Example. Cashier asks, "Are you a Christian?" Christian answers, "Yes". Store won't sell you anything. A phrase as simple as that can replace, "Do you have a CVS card?" Or, "How will you be paying today?" Understand what I'm saying?

    The Beast, The mark. The number of his name.

    That's how you are rewarded :) By looking into the Word. So, while everyone can swear up and down that it's going to be a literal mark, We can just use the Bible to show how it is completely spiritual. Unfortunatly though, not everyone will look at the Spiritual side of things. This world is...

    Sabbath

    The only thing I will point out, is that Romans 13:8-10 is very clearly pointing to the 10 Commandments. It's not "any other command" in the Bible, or else you better start performing sacrifices again. What started as a genuine question from you, seems to have turned into something else. I have...

    The "HE" of Daniel 9:27

    It's Rae, not Ray. :) Friendly reminder. He confirmed, meaning he made his pact with many for a week. Not saying the pact was only a week long, but that during that week, he confirmed it with many. These many would be Israelites, and Israelites only. Then after Daniel's 70th week finished, the...

    The "HE" of Daniel 9:27

    The covenant is stated to be confirmed with many for a week. It does not say it is only a week long. So, many who was it confirmed with? Many Israelites, as this prophecy is directed at them. It says confirmed with many for a week, not that it is a week long. It's like saying, "I worked with...

    Sabbath

    No commandment for Sabbath keeping? We have continually shown you the Sabbath Commandment is still in effect. Hebrews 4:4,8 and 9. God spake according to the 7th Day. If Jesus has given Christians rest, wouldn't he also have spoken of another day? Did Jesus give us rest, yes or no? Did Jesus...

    Sabbath

    Amen, proved my point. I cannot tell Mungo why that one case I have seen has defraud not in it, yet he can clearly ignore tons of scriptural evidence that separates the two of them. Oh, and Mungo, it says "Moses said" not Moses Law. So, if I speak to you, keep the Sabbath, i'm not giving you...

    Sabbath

    Mungo, I'm going to have to say there is a problem with the conclusions you are drawing, because the Bible does in fact make the disctinction between both laws many times, as posted previously. Yes, it just so happened that Jesus said "Defraud not" as well, as other 10 Commandments. This however...

    Sabbath

    Yes there is. Please look at Hebrews 4:4,8 and 9. Then research the meaning of the word rest in 4:9, to find out whatthat word actualy is. Then look at 4:8 and determine if Jesus ever spoke of, or kept Sabbath any other day then the 7th day. Notice the word day in that sentence. And to clarify...

    No One Dies And Goes To Heaven. It is not the Gospel of Christ.

    This is not stating that he literally preached unto dead people, but to people that were dead in their sins Also, the people in prison whom Christ preached, were the souls that are bound, and prisoners of sin.

    The "HE" of Daniel 9:27

    I mean no disrespect at all in this message, but sometimes I may come off very "heavy". There is no gap in Daniel's 70 weeks prophecy, nor is there ever one mentioned in scripture. It's against sound reasoning, and logic to insert something where there is no proof of it's insertion. And please...

    The "HE" of Daniel 9:27

    The covenant confirmed for a Week (7 years) was the New Covenant confirmed with many Israelites for a week. As in, Jesus taught for 3.5 years, died, ressurected, His Apostles taught for 3.5 years after, then Stephen was stoned, and all of Israel turned their backs on the Gospel. They exclusively...

    Warrior's Life Desires and God's plan

    Is there someway possible you could help the light spread around where you live? Are you acquantinces with any of them. I didn't wanna tell this, but no one knows who I really am anyways, so I'll try this out. You can always send those around you information about God. I actually just made and...

    NKJV, KJV, or ESV?

    Adding input, but I would go with the KJV for reasons listed above, and actually far more. I think the removing of 1 John 5:7 should be pretty significant to a lot of Christians (they do that in the newer Bibles), but some seem to think you won't make a doctrinal error. However, I think...

    The Holy Trinity

    I wouldn't refer to it as a "trinity", as I don't like to use that word, because it implies the meaning of today's Christian understanding. You are right, in stating there is one God & Father. And it is true, that Jesus is a deity. He is just not His Father, as others continually state...

    The "HE" of Daniel 9:27

    Good study, honestly glad to see someone else understands that the "he" here refers to the Lord Jesus Christ. It is not referring to an anti-Christ, as opponents often say it is. It's also used to pull this verse out of time context, to support a 7 year tribulation. But that's a theory for a...

    Polygamy

    No, I don't think it's odd. Yes, God blessed the polygamist, the same way he blessed the murderer to choose his punishment. He allowed David to choose his punishment, though Exodus 21:12-13 says whoever smites a man shall surely be put to death. God was long suffering with the murderer, the same...

    Polygamy

    Lol, my bad. I didn't even notice you were responding to that, nor did I remember I asked that. This verse does not imply polygamy, but instead uses the two cities, and gives them names, and compares them to harlots. Yes, there was more than one city, but there was never more than one bride...

    Polygamy

    David, Hosea, and Gideon lived in those times, when they were suffered to do so. But, it's clear, we are to be married to one person. In the beginning he made them male and female, and they had one husband/wife. And spiritually, Jesus has one wife. David in these times, Hosea, and Gideon, would...
