Rev 17:16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. The ten horns upon the beast speaks of Rome, the whore was God's wife of the Old Testament who went a whoring after...

Living water is not rain. It is the Holy Ghost. Nothing speaks of rain. Don't be vague, your wording fits nothing I posted.

I can't find that scripture. Would you give it please?

Continuing to relate Revelation to history. This history was written by Josephus, a Jewish historian, who was there with the Jews in Jerusalem and also with the Roman army. He saw the things he wrote about. Rev 11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which...

My comments in blue: Rev 16:19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. Rev 16:21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of...

Hi daq, I think I can follow what your saying, let me see if I understand. Jesus would say "Pay no attention to this physical building, for the day is coming when the new temple will reside in you." The importance is not the temple its self but the fact that it will be destroyed. This appears...

Hi ScottAU, You have said in a few words what took me a full page. Thank you for your response! As with Angelina, I welcome you.

Prophecy teachers try to tie the scriptures in Revelation to a future happening. Could it be that the proper way is to relate it to the past. In Josephus books, Wars of the Jews, he writes about what was going on in Jerusalem at approximately 66 AD to 70 AD when the the city and the Temple were...

williemac, I read through your post again and I want you to know I agree. Love is a part, and a very large part of our salvation. My contention is that we come to God because he called us and by faith we answered that call. Rom 1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle...

Let me put it another way. Jesus came to fulfill all that had been written about him and since he did that, there is nothing else for him to do. God can not lie.

The Pope is Catholic and Catholic's or Popes are never mentioned in the bible. If it is not mentioned it is only a man's opinion. If it can't be proven by scripture you can rest assured they are wrong. The scripture one gives should be clear, not symbolic.

Jesus speaking to the multitude, Mat 13:24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: Mat 13:25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. Mat 13:26 But when the...

Hi Ruth, I hope you know that is not biblical.

Hi silenenceinmotion, I will go one step further than jiggyfly asked. What scripture do you base your statement on?

Hi joshhuntnm, Most people do not know what bible obedience is. It is as was posted here: http://www.christianityboard.com/topic/17653-hermeneutics-101-works-of-law-vs-works-of-grace/

This is not biblical, I hope you know!

Hi dragonfly, It only speaks of the people that God had the covenant with. That would be the descendants of Adam and later with Moses and the children that came out of Egypt. By saying it might mean everyone that had died is like saying today it would include sinners as well as Christians will...

Hi Jeremiah1five, Totally agree with you, only believers see the things of God, others are blind. Mat 15:1 Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, Mat 15:2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they...

As this study progressed, it became apparent that this is a very deep subject. Probably will not be able to cover it all in this thread. But here is a start. The bible teaches us that we must believe on Jesus to have eternal life. This is not simply believing that Jesus existed. It is a...

Hi dragonfly, Here is the short version. The Old Testament, as we call it, was written to the Jews. The Gospels was written about their Messiah coming to them to set up his kingdom. That was Jesus, but he would be rejected and for that reason, judgement was coming. Jesus spoke of this in...
