    You will be for me a KINGDOM OF PRIESTS and a holy nation.

    Exodus 19: The same symbolism applies in the NT, 1 Peter 2: Revelation 1: The OT Israelite kingdom of priests became the NT Christian kingdom of priests serving the same God.

    By FAITH Sarah herself received power to conceive. But she laughed

    Hebrews 11: Really? Was Sarah faithful? God promised Abram descendants in Genesis 15: Sarai couldn't wait. Genesis 16: Was Sarai being unfaithful to God's promise? No, at this point, God had not explicitly told them that she would bear a son. That came in the next chapter. Gen 17: At this...

    Why did Jesus sometimes want to keep his true identity secret during his public ministry?

    Sorry, I don't have time for this kind of childishness. Logically, you need to grow up.

    The unclean spirit passes through WATERLESS places seeking rest

    Berean Literal Bible Matthew 12: Do these places exist in the spiritual realm or the physical realm? Or are they metaphors of what? Luke 8: Demons are comfortable among tombs. They don't mind deserts either when they are inside a human. They are scared of the abyss. What are these...

    Why did Jesus sometimes want to keep his true identity secret during his public ministry?

    Why did Jesus sometimes want to keep his true identity secret during his public ministry? This is the 4th time I have asked you. Please note the bold. In addition to logical thinking, you also have a problem with precision. I prefer to interact with people who can think with mathematical...

    Why did Jesus sometimes want to keep his true identity secret during his public ministry?

    We are not communicating. You are not making sense to me. Conclusion: Jesus sometimes wanted to keep his true identity secret during his public ministry. Can you specify the premises for the above conclusion? That's the issue of this OP, in case you didn't know. This is the 3rd time I have...

    Why did Jesus sometimes want to keep his true identity secret during his public ministry?

    Why did Jesus sometimes want to keep his true identity secret during his public ministry?

    Mark 1: The demons knew Jesus' true identity as the Son of God. At this point, Jesus didn't want to be too vocal about it. Further, Jesus didn't even want people to be too vocal about him either. Jesus didn't want too much publicity. Jesus wanted to have some control over the size of the...

    Heaven vs paradise

    The Greek word for paradise is G3827 παράδεισος. It appears 27 times in LXX. Brenton Septuagint Translation, Genesis 2: A paradise seems to be some concept of heaven with physicality. In the NT, G3827 appears only three times. Jesus told the repentant thief on the cross in Luk 23: Paul...

    You who would be justified by the law; you have FALLEN AWAY from grace

    Galatians 5: We are in Christ who has set us free. Strong's Greek: 1601. ἐκπίπτω (ekpipto) — 10 Occurrences Grace sets us free from the bondage of the law. If you depend on the law to save you, you are not in Christ, and you have fallen from grace. Berean Literal Bible, 2 Peter 3: Grace...

    Was Keturah Abraham's wife?

    Genesis 25: wife אִשָּׁ֖ה (’iš·šāh) Noun - feminine singular Strong's 802: Woman, wife, female H802 is ambiguous. It is a high-frequency word with 781 occurrences. Good News Translation: This translation is confirmed in 1 Chronicles 1: Now, this Hebrew word is different from "wife"...

    Will marriage relationships persist after the resurrection?

    I don't think so. Firstly, English Standard Version, Luke 20: The Greek words for "marry" and "given in marriage" are in the present tense, not the future tense. The present tense shows a state of persistence.' People will not be in a persistent state of marriage after death (1 Corinthians...
