And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 18:3)

‘Why Jesus Came.’ "What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul?" (Matthew 16:26) We are spiritual beings. We are not animals whose existence is fulfilled simply by satisfying physical instincts. There is a desire embedded deep within, to find the meaning...

America’s biggest trouble started right here!

Yeah, I realise that Zephaniah preached not long before Babylon invaded Judah. So, Premils do not give it an end times application in much the same way as Preterists limit certain prophecies to AD 70 refusing to admit the possibility of a greater fulfillment preceding Christ’s second coming...

I will sweep away everything from the face of the earth declares the Lord. I will sweep away both man and beast; I will sweep away the birds in the sky and the fish in the sea - and the idols that cause the wicked to stumble. When I destroy all mankind on the face of the earth, declares the Lord...

May I suggest that anyone who reads 2 Peter 3 compares it with Zephaniah. There is no way in my mind that our solar system is only gonna get singed on top.

I don’t have a problem with text that toggles between 2 people. Your observation that Titus was under the control of the ‘eternal prince’ sounds pretty good to me too. You and I click on 95% of things. (almost) :cool:

Good comment. I think its primary referral is AD 70. But I part company with Preterists who insist that 'abominations' and 'desolations' *only* refer to AD 70. My view is there will be another destruction of Jerusalem and my prayer is that many Jews will find Jesus at that end of time. Dan 7...

This may help: After the sixty-two weeks Messiah (Jesus) shall be cut off, but not for himself; and the people (Roman troops in ad 70) of the prince who is to come (Titus, a roman general and prince) shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end of it shall be with a flood, and till the end...

I think a Podcast forum might fit nicely among the Community Fellowship Forums. It would require moderation though, and rules such as reasonable video length; adherence to orthodox doctrine, flooding, etc. Perhaps your 'Online church service directory' could be placed as a sticky at the top...

The story of the bridge to nowhere is featured in a message, 'Highways to happiness.' (22 minutes) Click full screen for best vision.

Ive been asking Admin for a better 'like' variety on the reply bar. In the meanwhile bro >>> :Hanging:

I never put anything in the Media area before and I might give it a whirl. Most posters seem to use it for photos etc. I was wondering if I could use it for videos? :)

Right. Have a prowl around www.christianforums.com They do it quite well over there.

Actually I'm Open Brethren. Some people belong to the 'We are not a denomination denomination.' (joking)

Sorry for the delay Scott. Yeah, I’m not a fan of gaps. One of the most interesting research projects I’ve ever done relates to the ‘weeks’ and how they were actually an ancient calendar. I called it ‘The Atonement Clock’ It’s published now, or available free as a PDF file. Have a look.

Sure, but the prophets usually spoke in the language of the old covenant because that is all his readers could visualize. However, the New Testament writers interpreted O.T. prophecy with a new understanding. A classic case is the temple where St Paul says, Jesus is the cornerstone, apostles and...

The Douay does a good job of Dan 9:27, but you have misunderstood it. The early church was meaning that when animal sacrifice ceased to atone following Christs final sacrifice, the ongoing animal sacrifices became abominable. So, the overspreading abomination from the cross onwards was...

The New Living does a bad job of Daniel 9:27. Try NKJV. Dan 9:27 He (Messiah) shall confirm a covenant with many for one week; but in the middle of the week (3½ yrs after his revealing) shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering. (temple curtain torn) And on the wing of abominations (ongoing...

There are six things Daniel said had to be confirmed. The seventy weeks had to: 1. finish the transgression, 2. make an end of sins, 3. make reconciliation for iniquity, 4. bring in everlasting righteousness, 5. seal up vision and prophecy, 6. anoint the Most Holy. The first four clauses were...
