    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    @BlessedPeace I don’t mock you for you belief in futurism? What’s the deal?

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    It’s faith. Believing in a non failed Jesus doing what he promised to do. That is what you don’t realize. You yourself believe in futurism. That’s fine. I don’t mock you for believing it to be true I just don’t find truth in it. Anything else would you like to add?

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    I don’t believe that’s Satans name. Jesus was one who brought light not Satan. But Lucifer in is a mistranslation I personally believe. And I believe Nebuchadnezzar would be appropriate.

    I'm starting to move away from "pretend Christianity"

    Ooff… This is why I need to get back to teaching… you’re right… I’ve read the Bible enough to have substance in sustaining faith in what I’ve come to know. The thing is me flesh doesn’t like reading the Bible, let alone going to plow through myself… but my spirit is willing… You’re right most...

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    @rockytopva evil existed by Gods existence. While no darkness is in him, he dwelled in the darkness of the cloud that filled up the temple… darkness and evil has always existed, it’s the abstraction of light.

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    Do you think the devil is the cause of all evil? Are we not by our nature prone to desiring things for ourselves? As far as the devil he was done away with after his use of taking out Israel.

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    The reason people miss it is because they rather look to Isaac newton, or someone else that are making claims besides Jesus. @rockytopva its shameful. But what can you do when you don’t realize it?

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    Jesus was even closer. With his generation. 40 years is a biblical generation. Then you have revelation which Jesus is revealed information from his Father. I guess Jesus didn’t know everything right off the bat… Most people claim that 2 Peter is talking about a world wide destruction however...

    The reason for gathering at Armageddon ?

    Earth who was in whoredom was Israel, known as spiritual Egypt.

    The reason for gathering at Armageddon ?

    ”And after these things I heard a great voice of a great multitude in the heaven, saying, ‘Alleluia! the salvation, and the glory, and the honour, and the power, [is] to the Lord our God; because true and righteous [are] His judgments, because He did judge the great whore who did corrupt the...

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    Come to church and pay your tithing and God will come and Jesus will be pleased and rescue you, just look at the world! Oh how evil it is! God hates it! He wants to destroy it… Buncha of lies.

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    I can’t take any of this as truth for myself @rockytopva. For nearly 2000 years it’s been preached that Jesus is still coming… that’s not possible on a one time event that would never happen again to that generation. Satans name is not Lucifer either. That just is a buncha bull hockey, and fear...

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    What people miss is to be saved from the wrath of God was a common feature to the generation at the time. Don’t believe me? Just go back to the beginning with John and his proclaimation “who told you about the coming wrath.”

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    This is the new earth governed by God… it’s by his spirit he calls to all people. The old earth was governed by law. People don’t get that though. It’s okay. And people will continue to look at me oddly. Everything has been restored like the Garden of Eden before sin was in the Garden. The...

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    I’m not interested in that book. I’m not stupid to not believe what Jesus said about his coming, and I believe faithfully it happened. That is the difference between me and yourself. That is all it is. I believe in something I never seen and hope it was achieved by Gods doing.

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    Unless you renounce your faith… that’s the caveat. We aren’t here to make people lose faith, but to continue to allow people to be hopefully and encourage them to call out to God and not lose hope… You can continue to say this or that, but renouncing one’s prior position is something expressed...

    Does Jesus still pray to God? Will he forevermore pray to God?

    Well my hope is my understanding is by the spirit and not my own.

    Does it matter which version of the Bible you read?

    God speaks to all people day, calling by the spirit , and the bride. But you say what you need to… Gotta quote the scripture to get rid of the devil. I got it. That’s all you gotta say.

    Does it matter which version of the Bible you read?

    That’s not a response, that’s a Bible quote. Why do you wanna play games? Maybe you just don’t care enough to explain… it’s starting to become annoying though.
