    The Two Witnesses

    It won't just be the jews wanting to hide from christ, but the whole world.

    Why is the bible so murky and confusing?

    Don't knock it til you try it. I know it's real. I'm not Catholic but over the years I've assisted in 2 exorcisms, I've seen the power of prayer result in physical healings, I've seen people become overcomers of sin in many aspects of their lives. Jesus helped me overcome a life of drugs and...

    The Two Witnesses

    It's possible I suppose, hence the illuminati but there is only two sides, either they're for Christ, they're against him...there is no fence-sitting allowed.. narrow is the way and broad is the path that lead to destruction. There will come a time when the average person will have been deceived...

    DAY OF THE LORD

    I was just having a similar discussion w/ someone else. Every mention of the "four winds" are not necessarily connected. It's just another way to say, from the corners of the earth, from every direction (the wind blows), the face of the earth, etc. Could it have a prophetic meaning? I suppose...

    Why is the bible so murky and confusing?

    The bible does mention the temptations that we all face, ie "the fiery darts of the wicked". When we belong to the devil he leaves us alone but when we get saved, he fights tooth and nail to get us back to our life of sin. Since he lost us, the most he can hope for is that by besieging us w/...

    We Are Not Alone: the Kingdom Prophecy

    The sons of God were human and descendants of Adam from before the fall.

    The Two Witnesses

    In this context Canaanite just means a fake believer, wolves in sheep's clothing, infiltrators of the church but they are of all races. It's not one select group of people. The politicians who are trying to stop us from attending church fall into that category.

    DAY OF THE LORD

    The church doesn't replace Israel and yes unrepentant Israelis will face the same eternal judgment as unbelieving gentiles. Yes, they as well as the rest of the world will undergo his wrath, however, at the end of Amos there is a promise of restoration for Israel as there is in all the...

    Why is the bible so murky and confusing?

    Your quote: "although i would certainly agree that one would cease taking advantage of others, and etc, and i would give a wide berth to anyone interpreting "i can no longer sin, it is not even possible" I have never come close to suggesting that. I'm not refusing to describe the armor, I don't...

    Why is the bible so murky and confusing?

    So basically you're saying that you are spiritually crippled because you can't resist temptation so no matter what the devil tempts you to do you must comply and you think that's okay??? You are the one w/ the spiritual problem my friend. Christ isn't called our Captain for nothing. If you're...

    The Two Witnesses

    I think you're reading more into these verses than what is meant. The difference is they were being persecuted by non-believing Jews because some of them were still worshipping in synagogues. The various churches because of their locations simply had different problems than the other churches...

    Why is the bible so murky and confusing?

    If the battle was over we would have no need of our armor but that is not what the bible teaches. While we are no longer under the law, the law still exists as a guideline for believers. Yes, some churches go overboard w/ legalism but salvation is not a license to sin. If we keep doing...

    DAY OF THE LORD

    I think I get what you're trying to say however I don't believe the ten lost tribes make up most of the gentile population. There is only one way to Christ even if you're an Israeli. there is no separate rule book for them. The 144,000 will be born again blood-washed believers who just happen to...

    Why is the bible so murky and confusing?

    The law has nothing to do w/it. We are to obey Christ and strive to become more like Him. While we will never become sinless, as we mature in Christ we should strive to sin less!

    Why is the bible so murky and confusing?

    While our victory is assured, the battle is far from over. God expects us to wage spiritual warfare on behalf of ourselves and others while on earth. We are to "strive for perfection", not settle for less than our best.

    Why is the bible so murky and confusing?

    Your quote, "When people become believers, they often fall into a trap when they strive to stop being sinners. They don't yet understand grace. Been there, done it, didn't want a T-shirt. At best, stifling sin modifies one's behavior. Like 10 garbage cans and 9 lids. Like whack-a-mole, as soon...

    The Two Witnesses

    That has absolutely nothing to do w/ our discussion. All the churches have something said to them that isn't said to the others.

    The Two Witnesses

    If by fall away, you mean reject Christ then I agree, however, if you're talking about back-sliding, I believe they're still saved and will just get less rewards.

    DAY OF THE LORD

    My post said Israeli's (it didn't mention Jews) Rev. 7 tells us exactly what tribes they are from. Other than that, I don't get the point you're trying to make.

    The Two Witnesses

    That's the problem w/ symbolism. One can come up w/ a mountain of possibilities for every little factoid. The five churches were the elect as well and if Christ was to offer the same criticism to the church of today, he would come back w/ the whip and give us a good thrashing while reminding us...
