    Lazarus and the Rich Man correspondence = hades not eternal

    Hi Brother APAK & thanks for your reply. I reckon I'm reading it different. Joh 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, BUT (Except, or other than.) He that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. To me Jesus was in heaven as God before time, equal with God (Php...

    Where in the world are you?

    According to the following scripture maybe not. It sounds as if we'll know nothing, but we'll have love. :D 1Co 13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

    HOW & UGG.; that's GREETINGS and YES. Me registered Cherokee tribal Indian in Oklahoma, with probably a little less wampum than Elizabeth Warren our Great White Chief President Trump refers to as 'Pocahontas, but more native blood that can be traced. We will meet, and see of you can learn them...

    Anyone From Rapture Ready Forums?

    Hi Brother JesusIsFaithful, have you considered that for any to have been seen in heaven during John's visit in spirit there, they had to be caught up? Is there purpose in being ready, or may I use the word "abide" (1Jn 2:28 so as to not be ashamed), or scripture being faithful unto death (Rev...

    Where in the world are you?

    What a bunch of Okies. I began kindergarten in Muskogee Okla, 1st grade in McAlester Okla, 2nd thru 4th grades in Cedarville Ark just outside of Van Buren, Ark, but we owned a farm that bordered the Ozark National Forest. After that we moved to San Diego, Ca. After military service I ended up in...

    Lazarus and the Rich Man correspondence = hades not eternal

    Wow Brother Willy T, there’s sure a lot of “Ifs” presented. I reckon I didn’t read as closely as I might of concerning the great Josephus, but overall there seems to be a dim light shown on scripture. They talk of parables; are they types of occurrences to come, that are, or have been? Let me...

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    Just a thought here is that the elect are the temple of God, and not a temple made with hands. I'm not convinced by all the the discussion who the two wittnesses will be that represent God to the masses of that terrible time to come; but I suspect it to be two groups with Jesus when He takes His...

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    I would just ask what if anything about present Jewish worship even with their temples could be considered holy? Even now Israel doesn't require a temple (Ezra 3:6) to offer their daily sacrifice that is to be taken away according to Dan 12:11 below 30 days prior to the tribulation. Daniel...

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    Yes dear Brother Quitethinker if I'm understanding what you're saying, and these following thoughts are just my own, but there’s going to be a great change due to such things as one third of all mankind destroyed according to Rev 9:15, and Mat 24:21 says: For then shall be great tribulation...

    The Armor of God

    The Armor of God larry2 All of the pieces of the armor that God provides us with are associated with the word. Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against...

    How Do You Make Friends At A Church?

    Thank you Sister Kira for your reply. This is just my thoughts, but I've never had to be doing something spiritually to know it was God's leading that makes the way in those things He wills for me. Php 2:13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. There...

    How Do You Make Friends At A Church?

    Hello dear Sister Kira, and welcome to these forums of Christian fellowship. I read your post with utmost interest, and find no reason you would not be met with Christian love you seem to desire. I personally am not able to attend church services regularly, and when I do I am just myself...

    Should we forgive?

    Brother Frank Lee, isn’t this in effect saying for the Jews to quit believing in works of the law for their salvation, and believe on the Lord Jesus? In other words there is none that doeth good, and all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Act 2:38 Then Peter said unto them...

    Should we forgive?

    Good morning Brother Frank Lee. What are we to repent of; the way we thought as law keepers to get to heaven if we were Jews? and then the young ruler was told after supposedly keeping all the law was told to sell all he had, and follow Jesus. Lk 18:22. it is my understanding that baptism had...

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    Dear Brother quitethinker, I like the fact you see the woman of Rev 12:1 as the family of God, but then I would have you consider the time frame of the man child’s being caught up unto God. From Rev 4:1 the events John are shown to occur are things which must be hereafter from that point in...

    Should we forgive?

    Dear Brother Willie T, If I'm reading you correctly, it is not the other that is benefactor to God's love that never fails regardless of me and my prayers, it is me reaping the joy of God's salvation to my own life. Conscience, pent up hatred no matter the size, and/or duration of it to our...

    Mother Teresa

    There was no need to for her to be saved. All she had to do was believe. Even Paul wrote the following scripture. 1Co 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

    Mother Teresa

    Hey Brother Allan. Long time no see. I can only say that Jesus died for her just as He did for us. Did she ever once call upon His name? I sure hope so; she was a blessing to many in her works, but as to being a saint, all in Christ are saints. How are we saved? Any one of the various following...
