That is a great confession to make and a great place to begin! I recommend attending a church dedicated to the Bible. Calvary Chapels are a good choice because they go through the Bible chronologically with little or no other agenda. But more importantly, this is all personal between you and...

The big one among a well established biblical theme of many supporting examples, is forty years of Israel wandering in the desert for a generation or a lifetime (which is only a lifetime if understanding the symbolism of first passing through the Red Sea).

The point where things are no longer a process or learning curve, is the point of salvation. At that point things become revelation, because the decision is made. Which may indeed seem like the revelations are still a process of learning, but because our decision is already made, our efforts...

Discerning the spirit is part of our personal choice to make before God. As for revelations or higher spiritual meaning, nothing is new that is not already written. What is new however is anything or any meaning that we did not before know...which is not actually new, but perhaps new to us or...

Ports easy to trace, easy to identify, easy to bomb. They might as well have put targets on their leaders. The US could so easily put a bounty on who gave the order too.

You (and others) may call it a "learning curve" or "a process", or even "growing in the word" as Paul said--which is fine to a point. It is not misleading or wrong to describe it as such. But I would call it a time of revelations from God. The difference is, learning can imply that we have done...

It's more than that.

Thanks for the confirmation. But it is your own ignorance that you show. Do you not know what "forty days and nights" refers to in the scriptures? Apparently not, or you would not have been so foolish as to add it to your display.

Oh, but there is so much more! Revelation Chapter 4 is a continuation of the revelation of Jesus Christ--"things which must take place after this” refers rather to "after" "the revelation of Jesus Christ"--who is both First and Last: Meaning it is a revelation from the beginning of time unto...

With God, by God, everything is revealed, all things are made manifest. This all has to do with God fulfilling what He has said He would do. It actually defines what this world actually is. It's like a dumping-ground for everything--every evil. Which is often hard to perceive because it is all...

The apostle Paul phrased his explanation of the resurrection referring to the time of our full and complete spiritual maturity, as "what shall be." He did not say that perfect spiritual maturity was about what we do during the rest of our life. He jumped straight from "corruption" to...

You have only explained the "practice" of fasting and certain worldly benefits--as if a lack of food actually had power to experience God. But you have not given the actual reason for the practice. Meanwhile, you presume to correct me--posting what is in your heart--but "Do you not yet...

This again was a practice established by God to demon.strate what it actually refers to, another "light unto the gentiles" to show the world what was and is now happening. Life in this world is our fasting experience--that is to say: This is our fasting or doing without God. We were born into...

Aah, don't confuse the practice of keeping the Sabbath, with what it represents. Israel was commanded to keep the Sabbath every seventh day, as "a light unto the gentiles"--to show every other nation and people--the plan of God as He first declared it to Israel. That plan of God was given by...

The Proverbs show both sides (both the fool and also the wise, etc.). Life from both sides. God gave David Bathsheba, and Bathsheba gave David Solomon, and God gave Solomon wisdom--there is indeed a lot going on there. A word study makes for quite the string of pearls! David = "beloved"...

I recommend going one step further. If at different times in different cultural settings the words possibly mean something else--Why? God can be clear. Why is this matter then left by God to be muddled over? Why indeed? Was it even a matter of counting the days of evenings and mornings, or...

That's your defense for not reading enough to know the full purpose of the thread--the title? Yeah, well that doesn't hold water, you made accusations and judgements with little or no information. That's you.

Is that what your reading only bits and pieces of the thread told you? Go figure. That is not at all what the thread is even about.

If you are just going to read bits and pieces of this thread--and won't take my advice and "read all" (of this thread)--what do you expect? Talk about exalting yourself--you expect a special invitation and to be filled in on everything when you won't even follow along and read of what is being...

It has been a few days now--thought I would say something. I put myself out there--and the response is mostly favorable--thank you! But the issue was and is bigger than me, and my intention was to open a window of communication and perhaps hold up a mirror revealing an issue that has literally...
