    When was satan cast out of heaven?

    Perhaps Isaiah 24: 21-22 gives a clue as to when Satan, his side kicks, the four beasts, the Little Horn and the other wicked fallen heavenly hosts will be kicked out of heaven and imprisoned in the Bottomless Pit along with the kings of the earth who will be gathered at Armageddon, when they...

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    Paul tells us often in his letters that we should renew our minds and that we then should put on this refurbished personhood that God has always intended us to be since the beginning of time. We can have a thirst for the "special knowledge" needed to save our souls but without a heart that...

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    A new word for me: - There is a punch line in the above enlightenment, but the humour may not be appreciated. Shalom

    The great tribulation is rapidly approaching, survival depends on doing God's will Mat 7:21

    The scriptural reference is: - Matthew 7:21-23: - I Never Knew You (Luke 6:46; 13:26,27) 21 "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of...

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    Marks, if I held onto all of what has been directed at me, then I would be a mess. I try and keep a short list of the wrongs against me, and forgive the person and deal with the accusation as to whether I need to repent because of their words. I often have to deal with my pride as well. If...

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    Sorry Marks I was not addressing this at you personally. If you have read it that way, then that is your problem and not mine. Language can be so confusing and can be twisted to say whatever we want. What I was commenting on was your comment and not about you.

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    So true, but the "Bibles" we have, that have been translated into our native tongues, have already had the original context modified to suit the translator's understanding of what was meant. As such, our translations are not a good place to go looking for a good foundation for the doctrine that...

    What is being pointed to in the following scfriptures?

    Really, Is that your simple literal reading of the scriptures to come to the wrong understanding. Let us put the respective gospel verses into the context in which they are found. Matthew 16:13-28: - Peter Confesses Jesus as the Christ...

    Do you consider pizza to be "junk food"?

    I wonder if the answers provided were because of the simple literal reading of the situation/ source. On such a complex tasting subject as this, people with the simple literal reading simply just do not get it. Its the taste buds that determines the responses and how the stomach responds to...

    Maps for studying Genesis

    IMHO you are speaking out of the silence of the scriptures. As to where the Garden of Eden was, it should be remember that its location is not needed to be known as it plays no further part in the story of mankind and his salvation other than it gives a time and a place where the fall of man...

    What is being pointed to in the following scfriptures?

    IMHO your understanding of the first two scriptures is not on the money in that Jesus made this statement six to eight day before His transfiguration up on the mountain and this event was not, as I understand it, a fulfilment of His statement that "some standing here will not taste death until...

    Plover nesting season This pair of plovers have a nest in the middle of the yard and they are very protective. You can see the nest in the above pic and in the picture below you can see that there are three eggs in their nest. The plovers are very protective of their nests and their young.

    What is being pointed to in the following scfriptures?

    The first three passages above that I quoted was spoken about six to eight days before the journey up the mountain where Christ was transfigured. Perhaps you may like to reconsider your post.

    What is being pointed to in the following scfriptures?

    Matthew 16:28: –– Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom." Mark 9:1: –– And He said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death till they see the...

    Mask Control: Prove COVID-19 exists...I dare you!

    To drive a car we must be prepared to comply with the Government's directives to do so. Where people are not prepared to comply with the government's directives, road trauma escalated and the resulting unlawful "road kill" rapidly increases. Should we in this particular disease of road carnage...

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

    Perhaps a better starting point would be for "Christians" to be prepared to actually rub shoulders with people who have tattoos that live within their community and start conversations with them that is meaningful for these people. Perhaps that may be one step to far for them. Perhaps the...

    Can I humbly suggest that you stop flogging the poor donkey and not start another "polly" as you have already worked this topic to death. Posted with much love.

    Mask Control: Prove COVID-19 exists...I dare you!

    Josho, In comparison with the Victorian situation around 12 months ago the situation in NSW is not as out of control as it was in VIC during the time of that peak. A graph of the moving 14 day tally of recorded covid-19 cases shows this to be true. This chart is showing that the compliance...
