Actually I would say it started with 1 Co. 3:4 - "For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?"

For the word "apostate" to mean anything, one has to have a sincere belief and faith to begin with and later rejects those beliefs based on fear, anger, etc. The prophecy implies that this will be a significant event in the church that will happen all at once in a short period of time, when the...

Categorizing them is the wrong thing to do. I'm not sure about the first two but that last five were hundreds of years away from the times of those churches thus are irrelevant to the conversation. Denominationalism is one of the great historic downfalls of the church. Just look for one that...

They are only referencing those literal churches in John's day. There are no ages in them, but every generation has had some individual christians or churches dealing with the problems of all seven. If you're speaking of the seven seals of Rev. 6 you couldn't be farther from the truth. The...

There's not a single scripture that calls the church the bride. No other doctrine has so little scriptural backing that's based on only a couple of metaphors. The church is not in any of the bridegroom parables.

Much of Zech. 14 along w/ Ez. 38 are post mill, imo.

We Are Not Appointed to “ETERNAL” Wrath When one understands there is no 7 yr. “trib period” prophesied, there is only the 70th week and the last half of the week is "not" called the GT in scripture, they will start to get closer to understanding what the 70th week consists of. Many try to...

I'm probably going against the crowd here but I would say there is a verse that seems to suggest that possibility. However, just because someone feels like they're homosexual they don't have to act on their desires. I don't think homosexuality in and of it self is a sin, it's the actions that go...

Heavy sigh, Are there going to be literal sheep and goats? Of course not and if one actually read what I wrote they would see that I said they stood for saints and sinners, that's two words, bro, everything else is literal and two words does not a parable make!

Sorry, my bad I guess.

Maybe you should look up the meaning of a metaphor or analogy. He's speaking to the same people he was in Matt. 24:3.

There's no such thing as a seven yr. trib period prophesied in the bible.

I don't know, there are quite a few but I figure if it comes up in my notifications than it must be about something I commented on. That might be different if I began a post. Most of the others that show up in notifications are responding to something I said but there have been a couple others...

Try and read the difference between Matt. 25:1-13, 14-30 and 31-46. The first two are parables which are usually used to portray some aspect of the kingdom of God on earth and or heaven. The latter does not do this. Not everything He spoke was a parable and this is the case in 31-46. There is no...

It came up on my notifications.

Here's the definition of a parable: "a usually short fictitious story that illustrates a moral attitude or a religious principle." I don't believe anything in Matt. 25:31-46 is "ficticious". The sheep and the goats are metaphors for believers and sinners. Believers are referred to as sheep many...

Try reading that again, I didn't even come close to saying that. The Aod isn't in Dan.9. It is either Dan. 11:31 or 12;11

It shouldn't.

To your last sentence, baloney! Yes and they were unlearned for doing so. As the prophecy of Dan. 12:4 says knowledge, both spiritual and secular, will increase in the latter days. The church of today has a far greater understanding of prophecy than they did because most of it could not really...

I have eternal life and I can have sex and repopulate my home but those who enter the millennium won't have literal eternal life (it will be like ours) but they will live longer like the folks in the early part of the bible did. Is. 65:20 - "There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor...
