There is a difference in the "elect" and those of "free will." Why? Acts 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: There we're shown God doesn't arbitrarily select one to salvation and the other to perish...so why are some of...

Isaiah 61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. In another thread...

I have never really seen the ALL in the root of all evil. A question this raises to me is...are evil and wickedness different? Revelation 11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified...

The Man Child is our Savior that "she," Mary, brought forth. The other "she" is Israel, the woman, the church. She brings forth the man child (ren). Those men children are His very elect. As Jesus, The Man Child, was caught up to His throne...so are the men children caught up to God. Man...

Ecclesiastes 2:5 I made Me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all kind of fruits: 1 Corinthians 12:4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. (8-10) For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge, by the same Spirit...

We are told of the wife and the bride, who is "the virgin" before she/he/they become the bride. What are their/our roles? Who is the wife or the bride? Revelation 21:9-10 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me...

This is a beautifully written thread....thank you.

Hello Jane and welcome to the forum, My question in this thread was because Jesus gave His disciples power to cast out unclean spirits but they couldn't do so with this one. In reading corresponding gospels we see that the father of the boy termed him a "lunatic" (under the influence of the...

Mark 9:25-26 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, He rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, "Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him." And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch...

A bit more about the "fowls of the air." Matthew 6:26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? The fowls don't sow His Word nor will they reap blessings and salvation...

Mark 4:4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the FOWLS OF THE AIR came and devoured it up. 4:14-15 The sower soweth the word. And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taken away the word that...

There are two houses to which God's chosen belong. There is the house of Judah and the house of Israel. Jew and Christian. All are Israel but only the house of Judah are Jews. Our Father calls His elect to Him for a purpose....and we are to watch! We are to be the "strong man" that guards the...

Mark 3:13-14 And He goeth up into a mountain, and calleth unto Him whom He would: and they came unto Him. And He ordained twelve, that they should be with Him, and that He might send them forth to preach. And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils: He calls His elect for a...

Said Little Red Riding Hood.... What big Spiritual eyes you have Kristina! :)And she replied.... The better to understand His Word my dear. You are blessed with opened eyes and ears.

I'm glad you liked it. What an ending. I kept wondering why Paxton, who is a man of God, would play a role depicting crazy Christians. What is Dexter?

Thank you. It's funny you should post this topic when that thought has been on my mind for a few days. Great minds think alike? :D Or...God is leading. Which do you think it is? I know...He is leading.

Terrific Post. :) A few days ago I noticed "robes and white linen." What do you consider is the difference, if any, in the white robes and the while linen? Revelation 7:9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and...

Leviticus 19:23-25 And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it shall not be eaten of. But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be...

Yes indeed it is....especially if you have to take time out to sacrifice still beating hearts to the gods. :eek: I mean what do we expect?
