There are many would-be claimants to the Mandate of Heaven. If we trace this running dispute throughout biblical history, we find that Judah was given the Dominion Mandate of Heaven in Gen. 49:10. But even Judah's claim was only temporary, as the verse tells us, because ultimately the throne...

The Hebrew word for fire literally means “the strong devourer” or “the strong consumer.” Moses uses a play on words to describe God's appearance in the mount in the form of fire, saying in Deuteronomy 4:24, 24 For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God. The Israelites thought...

I do recognize that there are passages where the word seems to imply endlessness. For this reason, I am willing to concede the point for the sake of argument. Conceding this point in no way diminishes the force of our argument, because the Bible teaches the Restoration of All Things from...

Let's use one of your scriptures to explain the vital position most of us are in. Matthew 25:46 says, 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment; but the righteous into life eternal. One of the most tragic casualties of this mistranslation of aionian has been the understanding of...

Okay, let's take "allegiance" out... I didn't like it there anyway. Let's focus on swear so we want miss what God is telling us. He was telling us that He will cause us to repent whether we like it or not. We know that a carnal mind will look @ that and say "NO WAY" and I can tell you that most...

I believe that we are all saved the same way also. That's why I believe in Isa. 45:23 so strongly. 23 "I have sworn by Myself, The word has gone forth from My mouth in righteousness And will not turn back, That to Me every knee will bow, every tongue will swear allegiance. God will...

First of all, we must understand Christ bought everyone and is responsible for our salvation. He has a plan to extend His Mercy from generation to generation. Psalm 118:1-4 says, 1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever. 2 Let Israel now say , that his...

Matthew 18:31-35, 31 So when his fellow slaves saw what had happened, they were deeply grieved and came and reported to their lord all that had happened. 32 Then summoning him, his lord said to him, "You wicked slave, I forgave you all that debt because you entreated me. 33 Should you not...

Exactly my point LS... read (Isa. 45:23) and understand these people that are confessing and bowing have FAITH in the true God. God swears that these unbelievers will have FAITH that Jesus Christ is Lord. These unbelievers have just become believers. WHY? Because God said He swears they will...

LS... did you ask to be in Adam? No... you had no choice... did you? God put you in Adam and now God has put you in Christ. Didn't you know... no man can come to God on his own... he has to to drawn by the Spirit. We can not take credit for what God is doing. In the appointed time, God will...

Here are few scriptures to ponder: Isa. 42:8, 8 "I am the LORD, that is My name ; I will not give My glory to another, Nor My praise to graven images. Isa. 43:10, 10 "You are My witnesses," declares the LORD, "And My servant whom I have chosen, So that you may know and believe Me And...

Jesus said (Isaiah 61:1; Luke 4:1, 8) that the Father had sent Him to open the prison doors and set the captives free. He was, of course, referring to the Year of Jubilee, for Christ IS the Jubilee. In Him is freedom, and life, and restoration. Psalm 102:19, 20, 19 For he hath looked down...

The way you interpret that scripture Lively Stone... sounds like you and a couple more will enter the Kingdom of God. Everyone else will live in a sea of TORMENT for eternity. Wow, God really took some time to figure out His Plan. Knowing all things from the beginning... what's the point... I...

God spoke to Moses and gave Israel a perfect law by which we might know His mind and how to establish a perfect system of law. For this reason I have been amazed when well-meaning Christians fear the divine law as if it came from a God of Vengeance. They run from such a God and draw near to...

Rightly dividing the Word of Truth is learning how to judge righteously. Jesus is indeed coming to judge the world, for all judgment has been committed to Him (John 5:27). But judgment is not synonymous with condemnation. The Greek word for judgment is also the word for discernment. To judge...

They receive aionion punishment or punishment in the ages to come. Our punishment isn't the same as God's punishment. We have no real reason to punish other than giving a person no hope but God punishes for the purpose of correction. Logabe

Let's let Jesus define the right hand of the Father. In Mark 14:62 Jesus says, 62 And Jesus said, "I am ; and you shall see THE SON OF MAN SITTING AT THE RIGHT HAND OF Power, and COMING WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN." I hope this helps because I do understand this is a "GREAT MYSTERY" and...

So what name was that? Acts 2:38, 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptised every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, Either Peter disobeyed Jesus in Mathew 28 or he knew who the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost was. God the Spirit had given him a name that...
