  1. Desire Of All Nations

    Nation born in a day in 1948?

    Verses 12-24 of that chapter places the fulfillment of verse 8 within the time span of the Millennium and beyond, so no one can legitimately argue that Isa. 66:8 was fulfilled in 1948 or any point before.

    Israel

    They are still God's chosen people, whether they currently believe in Christ or not. Paul teaches in no uncertain terms in Rom. 11 that God has left them in their unbelief so they can eventually be saved and that it was done for the Gentiles' sake. When the time comes in God's schedule for them...

    Eating pork

    Rom. 14 is about vegetarians judging meat eaters and vice versa. It has absolutely nothing to do with Paul supposedly relaxing the dietary law when he told plenty of people in the Acts narrative that he still believed in the authority of the Law. If he believed in the authority of the Law, then...

    Doctrines of Demons???

    This is another false assumption held by mainstream Christianity. Moses recorded in Genesis that Abraham and Jacob were tithers: "And blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” And he gave him a tithe of all." Gen. 14:20 “And this stone which I have set as a...

    Do you believe Jesus, or your experience?

    That's because sinlessness is the standard. Have you not read Rom. 10:4 and the plethora of other NT passages in the epistles that teach a Christian is obligated to follow Christ's example, take on the mind of Christ, or allow Christ to relive His earthly life through them? Why do you think...

    Sanctification is an ongoing process

    "Nobody grows into holiness". The Bible completely disagrees with you: "but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen." - 2 Pet. 3:18 Peter didn't say just talk about grace or think about grace. He said grow in grace and...

    New world order?

    It is not something that will happen in the distant future. It is being built right now in Europe, primarily by the Roman Catholic Church. In light of America ditching our European allies and the economic uncertainty with the euro, Europe has every incentive to speed the formation of that empire...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Protestants who subscribe to the immortal soul doctrine reflect the absolute irony of modern Protestantism. Modern Protestants say the "soul sleep" doctrine isn't biblical, but Martin Luther himself disagreed with this position by stating the Bible teaches that the dead are in their graves...

    You do nothing Good

    It is a total lie to say commandments like the Sabbath can't be kept. 1. Acts shows Paul continued to keep the Sabbath after his conversion: "Then Paul, as his custom was, went in to them, and for three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures," - Acts 17:2 Liars who try to argue that...

    Where do people go when they die?

    The "Christian" idea that going to Heaven is the Christian's reward is based on misquoting passages and overlooking other passages like Jhn 3:13(Christ clearly said no human being other than Himself was going there), Daniel's prophecy in Dan. 7 that the saints of God will rule this earth...

    "I quite like males with earrings": a low-key, respectful discussion

    The Bible disagrees with you for a bunch of reasons: 1. The idea behind Paul's teaching concerning the length of men's hair is that men are supposed to look like men as God intended. A man can't look like a man when he is wearing earrings or anything else that is gender specific to women...

    Poll: Tattoo art - Christian perspectives: Fight it? Ignore it? appreciate/embrace it?

    Anyone who needs a tattoo to explain the Bible to someone clearly isn't educated enough about it to call themselves an evangelist or witness. Christ didn't need that nonsense to explain the scriptures to somebody, and neither did any of the other apostles or the actual evangelists of the 1st...

    Library of congress, our provably Christian heritage

    Comparing the nations' laws against biblical Christianity, it is obvious that this nation was never truly Christian in the way the Bible defines it. The love biblical Christianity calls for did not exist when the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence was first drawn up because...

    Bible alone!

    The obvious problem with your theology is that Christ never called the scribes and Pharisees Moses' successors. He said they sat in Moses' seat, which makes a huge difference in the message He was conveying.It's also historically impossible to say the scribes and Pharisees' were Moses'...

    What is the first commandment?

    Considering Christ said the first great commandment is to love God, the first commandment would obviously be the one prohibiting idolatry, seeing as though the violation of the other 9 commandments stem from people worshiping a false god of some kind, especially if it's their own reasoning. The...

    How rich is too rich?

    Out of the many times i read the Law, i have never seen God tell the Israelite community to depend on wealthy people to survive or have a healthy economy. I definitely haven't seen God tell Abraham, Isaac, or Jacob, to depend on wealthy people for their needs. Even in the NT, i don't read...

    The Mark of the Beast - imagery, explanation, identification - For those who have eyes that see

    If people would let the Bible interpret its own symbols, they can know what the mark is. The Bible says it is the mark of the sea beast. Logic dictates that it would help to know what that beast is first so the mark itself can be identified. And since the Bible itself identifies the sea beast as...

    Christ and His church - a comparison of their times

    You literally agreed with what i said that God's Chruch is an organization. And yes, it is an organization because there is a hierarchy where the Father is at the very top and the lay members are at the very bottom. If God is not the author of confusion, His Church would logically reflect that...

    The simplicity of the Gospel

    If a person believes that they cannot lose their salvation, they deny Christ saying a Christian has to remain faithful to the end, they disagree with the other apostles saying a Christian has to remain faithful to the end, and they are arguing that Demas, Diotrephes, and the other Christians who...

    Jesus Commands Trust and Love, not the Mosaic Law

    If Christ came to free absolve people from keeping the Law as antinomians claim, then passages like Isa. 2:3, Mic. 4:2, and Zech. 14:16-19 shouldn't exist. Those passages say the Law will be kept as a way of life by everybody who lives during the Millennium. Christ isn't going to come back and...
