We invite His reign that His will is done as in heaven.

Of course.

But signs did follow as He announced to John the Baptist.

The verse doesn't specify that.

These verses does not say the gifts cease with the apostles.

Sorry - no one knows if Hamas is involved.

I think it is too soon to know for sure the casualty detail. You know the old saying "All's fair in Love and War" ??? So during War reports are traditionally inaccurate because 'facts' are presented to cast the enemy in a bad light, or are fudged to weaken resolve. So threads like this are...

Thanks for the response, Scripture to confirm this please. James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. =================================================================== The Kingdom is where Jesus reigns and Jesus gave John the...

Yes - excommunication from the family - however there is a thriving messianic movement. When I was there the Baptist Pastor was a top Hebrew scholar and when his church was burned down, the Jews financed the rebuilding.

Sadly many good folk are being sucked in by the Muslim PR machine and a matter that escapes them is the Koran allows for false witness but the Torah doesn't. The war is being fought in minds - dividing families all over the world, such is the deep hatred for Jews - a spiritually fuelled hatred...

Big picture... I knew God existed by the age of about 4. I went to Sunday school and from an early age and my faith was so intense and personal that I asked my parents please could I not go. My mum was born Catholic and my father was in the Salvation army - both were excommunicated from their...

Yes I did that for over 5 years - read nothing but scripture devotionally - and came to a different perspective that you were taught in "the JW system".

Then why did God explicitly raise up human leaders? He will also have humans rule in the next life. Luke 22:28 “You are those who have stood by Me in My trials; 29 and just as My Father has granted Me a kingdom, I grant you 30 that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and you will...

You seemed to not understand my question. You said... "The police and the soldiers are not much different from my perspective, both play a role that God has put in place, as I said, they serve a purpose, albeit imperfectly. So if I understand you correctly, soldiers play a role in God's...

So countries should not engage in defending themselves ?

So you believe that Governments keeping civil rule by armed police is OK, but having soldiers to defend borders is not ? Just politely confirming your position. You quote John 17:16 but the message of John 17 seems to be that we are to be in the world but not of it. Having no part of the...

Jesus saw no conflict between faith and being a soldier. Luke 7:7-9 7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed. 8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to...

Matthew, I am happy to discuss the matter you raise I have a different take on it... First off it is easy to confuse loosing blessings in life and loosing salvation - two different things. Second the audience hearing the NT writings were a mix of elect and others not in the faith. Third the...

But we can't receive His Word from a book unless our hearts are open and His Spirit gives understanding.

Maybe you didn't understand me... All I am saying is that the Word referenced in these verses is not a 'Book' it is the Words that have ever proceeded and continue from His throne in eternity that sustain all life and law in the universe.
