    A person.

    Hi Fluffy, you have a friend, whose prayer for you has not changed or been repeated, but who now give thanks that God is working in fulfilling that prayer and is and has been drawing you closer into His warm encompassing embrace. God is setting you aside for a purpose which is beyond my ability...

    The Mark - Tattoo or Chip?

    it will make it more difficult to change banks then. But it will make a lovely tattoo pattern with every new 40 QR code added. Or it will make scamming so much easier that no one will be able to hold onto their money as it ill be skimmed from their accounts simple with a pic of the 40 QR...

    Why does Jesus speak in Parables?

    It seems that the interpretation that you are seeking is that today the parable is now about how "thick" we are, because of the question you asked. It also seems that you want to tell me what you believe the intended message of the two parables is. So go ahead and prove me wrong if you can...

    PARENTS ~ BEWARE

    Because this is a global forum, I assume that this thread is specifically only relevant to USA citizens as that is where you reside. The issue that I see is that people are afraid of the world and have little effective trust or reliance on God to keep them and their loved ones safe

    Athens or Jerusalem or Neither?

    So can I assume that you also hold to the same tenants as he does then.

    Athens or Jerusalem or Neither?

    After listen a little more I decided to check out the background of the speaker and this is what I saw: - Not making a judgement about the person or the program, but I would be careful with regards to the teaching presented. Shalom

    Athens or Jerusalem or Neither?

    The parable of the Judgement of the sheep and the Goats is between two ways of understanding, one being Hebraic with the other is being Grecian. I would agree with the thrust of the video from the few minutes that I have watched. In Jeremiah's time the people said that they have the Temple and...

    Not science but tyranny

    Have you not considered that 2 Chronicles 7:12-14 may provide the answer as to why we are experiencing climate warming where the rains are out of wack, the locusts, i.e. people, are consuming all the goodness within the earth and the pestilence that is inflicting us at this present time? It...

    Mark 8:38 - My understanding

    Sadly, you have adopted the tradition of the Jewish scholars who could not grasp that God's time span for His prophetic prophecies span many years, some times of the order of some 2,000 years as can be observed with Ex0dus 20:4-6 where the third and the fourth (generation) is mentioned. The...

    Why does Jesus speak in Parables?

    Robert, If Jesus knew the Law and did not change or alter the law then why would he have told the "wicked" servant that he should have given the money in the form of a talent to bankers so that he could have received interests on the value of the talent. If Jesus knew the Law, then why did He...

    Mark 8:38 - My understanding

    You are right, Gen. 15:13-14 states that Abraham's descendants will be afflicted for 400 years. We are also told that this: - 1 Chron 7:20-27: - The Family of Ephraim 20 The sons of Ephraim were Shuthelah, Bered his son, Tahath his son, Eladah...

    Nero is NOT the Beast or 666

    Perhaps this chart may help to understand the manner in which the lifetime of man decreased over the first two and a half ages with the Patriarchs in the order of birth: - If one checks on the names of the patriarchs the length of their lives was consistent with being around 120 years...

    Mark 9:1 - Please share insights if you would like

    Sounds great, but is your conclusion justified or not by scripture? Is not believing a form of activity that people must be involved in that does not come by observation, Shalom PS: - It is good to see you back posting.

    Mark 9:1 - Please share insights if you would like

    It seems that this is your own mantra. I prefer for God to show me His wisdom/understanding rather than that of mans. Shalom

    Why does Jesus speak in Parables?

    Sadly you have swapped out Satan from this parable of the Talents, and instead been conned into inserting Jesus into the parable as if Jesus is telling this parable about himself. Remember that Jesus is entitled to the return given in the harvest because it is He who is planting that seed in...

    Mark 9:1 - Please share insights if you would like

    @MatthewG your understanding of the death that jess was speaking of in Mark 9:1 is telling in that you do not know the death that Jesus was speaking of. Jesus was speaking of the Second Death in this verse and what He was stating is also true for us today in that some who hear the word of God...

    Mark 8:38 - My understanding

    Matthew, I have read these explanations as well, however, Gen 15:16 has nothing to do with Gen 15:13-14 and as such it does not justify your understanding that a generation is of the order of 100 years. The Genesis 15:16 prophecy was not fully understood until after 1948 AD when it was...

    Mark 8:38 - My understanding

    Well, I agree with you, your understanding of the time period of a "generation" is wrong within the context of the scriptures. A generation is the length of an age and is of the order of 1,000 years just like a day of the Lord is also of the order of 1,000 years. God understood that man did...

    Humidity and a wash basin

    Here is the passage that Fluffy referenced: - 1 Timothy 6:3-16: - Error and Greed 3 If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness, 4 he is...

    Humidity and a wash basin

    Fluffy, Please remember that the weather we experience only makes whatever we are doing more interesting. Satan likes to cause us to complain about the weather because in doing so he is getting us to complain about God and His weather that we experience. Satan is being sneaky in that he uses...
