    THE REASON THE NEWER BIBLES DIFFER FROM THE KJV IS DUE TO GNOSTIC CHANGES

    "Gnostic" may be a good word for it, but "ecumenism" (defined) is better: Ecumenism is the movement, principles, and organized efforts aimed at promoting unity, cooperation, and better understanding among different Christian churches and denominations. Derived from the Greek oikoumene ("the...

    How is it that you come by your information?

    Yes, of course--the gospel (truth) changes not. But "all truth" does not end there with Paul.

    How is it that you come by your information?

    If you have a point, make it. But it would seem you already have, and yet it doesn't align with all of scripture that specifically states, God "is the same yesterday, today, and forever"--and did not stop with Paul's teaching. I suppose your answer of "How do you come by your information" is...

    How is it that you come by your information?

    As you say, "today" we are taught by Paul, but surely we are taught by Paul just as we are also by Moses and the Prophets. Certainly Paul was from the beginning of these times of the gentiles, as all who are sent are appointed to their time before God. But what shall we say of God who "is the...

    God and Science. A Christian perspective

    Science is cool. However, we should all understand that by definition science is merely a quest, or a question asked and answered correctly or incorrectly based on partial information. It's like looking for an address with a few hints rather than complete directions--which is better than...

    New member seeking christ

    Welcome! It is good to fellowship with others who seek Christ and gather in His name. But more importantly, seek Him personally, inwardly--that is where He is most directly to be found, and where He does His greatest business...for you. Meanwhile, enjoy--God is good and you have taken an...

    THE REASON THE NEWER BIBLES DIFFER FROM THE KJV IS DUE TO GNOSTIC CHANGES

    "Gnostic changes?" You have shown the obvious differences in translation--but why do you only blame the Gnostics--were all translations other than the KJV made by Gnostics?

    Symbolism

    Then you as much as deny what "the literal word" says about God confusing "all language", and Jesus saying "The words that I speak to you are spirit." That is very sad! As for what authority I have, the scriptures give witness to my authority, wherein there is only one who is "caught up to the...

    How is it that you come by your information?

    No...Jesus has "create in Himself one new man from the two" making all subject to all (with the understanding that it has come "to the Jew first and also to the Greek" in the manner of "However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual").

    How is it that you come by your information?

    sml No, but yes I have listened and heard the spirit of God. Actually, I would think that Tinnitus is more likely a manifestation and sign of ignoring what the Spirit says--not necessarily for that person, but for all that hear of it, as a witness.

    How is it that you come by your information?

    Surely you have not fully portrayed the "but if you do not" portions of what is written. In fact, your statement of ".the proof of authenticity is that we, as a spiritual brotherhood are united in our beliefs and practices....and that these beliefs and practices are reinforced by all of...

    How is it that you come by your information?

    Whether for or against Christ--these are both spirits. Therefore, it is not just knowing the words, but hearing the spirit of God and acting in one accord with Him. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. More...

    Symbolism

    I understand. But that does not mean that symbolism is wrong or bad. It just means that every good thing of God is exploited by the spirit of anti-Christ. Even so, symbolism is a part of God's method of revelation. Meanwhile, you kick against the pricks. Your campaign quenches the Spirit--that...

    When will Christ return?

    Indeed, Jesus said even He did not know. Who that is saved--in whom Christ has come (again)--could have possibly said when it would occur?

    When will Christ return?

    The answer is "now" or "today." "For He says: 'In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you.' Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation." 2 Corinthians 6:2 Jesus said, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears...

    Symbolism

    It is God who has created symbolism-- Or did you think Jesus was a baby sheep, His Word for making sandwiches, the Temple only stone, or you and I one man in a bridal gown? Take symbolism out of the Bible and all you will have is a handful of snippets. What you are saying is against God.

    Symbolism

    What is "foreknowledge" to One who "is the same yesterday, today, and forever?" --You are thinking like a man. Why should I even warn you, but I have--or why should I offer to build on what you have when you have rejected the "finish" superstructure? What you say above regarding time and God is...

    Symbolism

    The correct term would be "higher spiritual meaning." Are you sure you want to say that the truth of God has no higher meaning than the scriptures show at face value?

    Symbolism

    I did not make "your" point, nor am I sparring translations with you. I am correcting you--a biblical measure appointed for these times. What you and nearly all of Christendom have assumed is that there is a week yet to come from the "seventy weeks" in Danial's prophecy--and that it is even a...

    Symbolism

    Ezekiel 38 and 39 are not future, but are a revelation--from before the foundation of the world, revealed in the fullness of time--in the times of this world from beginning to end. It is against Satan, who comes against all who are born into this world. As for Joel 2 and 3, No, it is not...
