    Slaying Sacred Cows-- examining pet beliefs

    The plurality of God is simply stated--it is. Indeed it is certainly something that can be delved into. However you actually mention two concepts, the other being the creation of the One Jesus--that is Jesus, the Son of God as coming in the midst of creation. I would suggest that before...

    Slaying Sacred Cows-- examining pet beliefs

    Hahahah...that would make this a kind of board within a board! ;)

    "For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet"

    You are adding to the scriptures and speaking against them (against God). "Tangible" is your word (and world). To the contrary, no "flesh" "inherits the kingdom of God"--it "cannot." These are the things that are actually written. And you cannot reconcile--nor have you reconciled all that is...

    "For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet"

    1 Corinthians 15:25 For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet. The verse refers to Isaiah 66:1 "Thus says the Lord: “Heaven is My throne, And earth is My footstool." Which is to be understood as: "Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, And the spirit will return to...

    There is no 'Spiritual Only' second coming, resurrection of the dead, nor reign on earth

    My response is only "empty" to you because it is in the Spirit, thus you don't hear a word of it. Go figure. Even so, you keep saying "Lord", "Lord."

    There is no 'Spiritual Only' second coming, resurrection of the dead, nor reign on earth

    You are not getting it. You are not the first. History repeats itself: John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. John 2:21 But He was speaking of the temple of His body. Matthew 16:11 How is it you do not...

    There is no 'Spiritual Only' second coming, resurrection of the dead, nor reign on earth

    It is easy to be confused when out in the weeds among the 'isms. The bottom line -- when all is said and done, the end of all things, is: "God is spirit." "God is perfect." "Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect."

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    That is not what we are talking about. Regardless, the truth might hurt, but it is not abuse.

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    You misunderstand. I am not arguing with you--I'm telling you. But it would be wrong of me to claim anything as coming from me.

    2 Months and 1/2 Are Left Until the Two Witnesses of Revelation Appear

    He doesn't fit the "Bill." ;) But maybe someone would like to name a star after him. Just a thought.

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    It is good to come to their defense. But what defense is it to condone their actions against God? None. To the contrary, you are enabling them like one who gives drugs to a junky instead of a sandwich. It would be better for them if you said nothing. The point is...if you really want to help...

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    Which then is more difficult, to go with one's feelings against what is natural and godly, or to go against one's feelings but with God? Is that not a choice?

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    I have condemned no one, but have only stated what is true with God. As for celibates, what is a celibate but one who does not become one flesh with the Groom? I tell you (as do the scriptures), such are those who perish. If you saw that there is a third person dancing with you, you would know...

    2 Months and 1/2 Are Left Until the Two Witnesses of Revelation Appear

    Today is the day of prediction. Let the truth be known. But I tell you, the two witnesses are the flesh and the spirit, the first Adam and the Last Adam. "That ‘by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established."...that is, by the man, the Son of Man, and by the Spirit. And...

    Are we under dispensation

    It is the Bible that seems to break it down that way "first the Jew, and then the Greek." However, the term "dispensation" assumes that "times"-- the times of men and this world, are the rule. But they are not. That rule is rather one used in story telling, revealing first things first...

    The Crucified Flesh

    I liked your other comment, but the issue of "fire" needs clarification. All fire is not a reference to damnation, for there is also "holy fire", and it is even written that "God is a consuming fire." Thus, water baptism is a reference to being "born of water", meaning born of flesh; while...

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    You misunderstand. What are the numbers/percentages? --Were there not 12 apostles (spiritually representing 12 tribes and all people), one of which was a devil? Good--then you should understand why I have spoken rather than staying silent, as you should have done. Do you not know that this is...

    How to respond to 13-year-old daughter who declares being gay

    All of that would only be true if you wanted to act against God who created mankind male and female, first separating them, that they should again become one -- not two men, not two women, but one man and one women, as a model and practice that points to the marriage between Christ and the...

    When will Jesus Return?

    Even every "moment" has an end...and the point is, Heaven does not have an end. So, I know it is natural to reason it as you have, but it doesn't actually work that way. I submit that the "silence in heaven for half an hour" was not a reference to time in heaven, but simply a convenient way of...
