Thank you for sharing. It is more than just that. How does John 16:13 testify about how the Holy Spirit will speak and how the Holy Spirit will not speak?

Sound instructions, however, I am in a situation where I can do nothing because of my enemies. They cannot refute what the scripture reproves and so they attack me and my character from which they have won over the congregation by this defamation to not even regard His words. Mark 6:2 And when...

I am not sure you know this or not, but just in case you did not, Abraham's bosom was underneath the earth before Christ had ascended? That the saints in Abraham's bosom was resurrected temporarily at Jesus's resurrection before "Paradise" aka Abraham's bosom was taken upwards to the third...

John 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life Matthew 11:25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid...

2 Corinthians 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 5 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16 And what agreement...

Please read the portion italicized and underlined in each version of John 16:13 below and explain what all those versions are saying about how the Holy Spirit will speak and not speak. John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not...

John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: 23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. John 5:22 reads to me as a judgment that is over every...

Welcome to the forum, brakelight. I hope you give grace over time if I should forget to address you as "brakelight". Usually, I just reply to a post with it addressing the poster as the nickname is by the post sent, which in your case, will be automatically addressing you as backlit. Not...

I see what you mean, but I believe we may be overlooking something since the last trump in 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 may not be referring to the last trump of the seven trumpets in Revelation 11:15-19 as it reads like the end of the great tribulation when the nations of the world will become His...

Thank you for sharing though. As iron sharpens iron, and only God can cause the increase in our knowledge of Him, I can only hope you understand at least why I disagree with your presentation of the three heavens.

The same can be said for how you kind of stretched the third heaven being how you described it below in your quote. So the first heaven can be seen as the Earth's atmosphere. Genesis 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the...

Luke 21:33-36 refers to a time where the saints would be ensnared by the cares of this life along with drunkenness and that such which saints will not be at liberty to do, let alone be tempted to do during the great tribulation when they need the mark of the beast to buy & do such things. So...

God be willing, our conversation shall continue.

As far as applying Genesis 1:2 goes, I can see that analogy of the water in being seen as that plane of existence. I do not necessarily agree with the other applications of such planes nor do I consider it as chaos in regards to Genesis 1:2. It's just is. If we were to liken what God was...

That is not what I read when you include verses 7 & 8. All I see is that a believer that sinned or was sowing to the flesh and then repented, they do not have to be water baptized again as if they need to go through that whole process to be saved again, because they are still saved. It is by...

Thank you, brother.

I know that an analogy may not exactly represent the reality of what we are living, and so we have to remember that we are trying to find a generic somewhat poor representation of what we see as our reality in the scripture to our basic understanding of what God has enable us to receive. I keep...

As in 2 or 3 gathered in my name as in a assembly? Probably because I see the church as a body of Christ rather than a building or specific place of worship as Christians generally gather today. In the address to the church at Thyatira in Revelation 2:18-25 , God had warned those believers...

Since sin separated us from God and thus people lives are being lost in the "holodeck", Jesus being the door in getting back to God and thus off of that holodeck environment, to live with God forever is certainly an analogy I can understand for why we have Jesus Christ to thank and to give...

I take the first verse as the topic and the following verses all the way to Genesis 2:3 on how God did that. The contention I have is that if you say He created the Heaven where He dwells in that first verse, then how can that be when the earth was not formed yet in spite of you claiming God...
