Interesting, but not found in scripture.

Paul taught the first resurrection to the Thessalonian church. 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with...

Lymphocytes are part of the body's mmune response to infection, and redness in the corner of your eye suggests an infection in that tissue or the sinuses in the immediate area. There are other potential causes, but given your other symptoms an infection is likely. The testing was probably to...

This is very imaginative. So the call to repentance throughout the judgements has nothing to do with the gospel and that multitude of saints that have been washed in His blood aren't Christians at all? All I have to do to live and reign with Christ is have my head lopped off and I'm instantly...

You think paradise is an invisible place around us full of people? Are they resurrected in glorified bodies? Do they sit and eat with Abraham as souls without bodies?

So you reject the Bema seat judgment that Paul taught?

Probably because the book of the Revelation is not all sequential. But like a newspaper story, describes the entire event and then goes on to separate visions about the parts of the event. 12 I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became...

I said no such thing. How do you justify making an argument from things people don't say? Isn't that just arguing against your own imagination? Try answering questions that are asked instead of putting words in other people's mouths and your own thoughts in their heads. All you're doing is...

There is no pre-tribulation rapture. The rapture occurs after the 1st resurrection and after the son of perdition is revealed, according to the scriptures.

So the church doesn't live and reign with christ for a thousand years, just the martyrs, and the church is judged at the 2nd resurrection?

Actually, some of the new testament scribes quoted from apocryphal works, but those works themselves are not in the canon. Even the gospels quote at least one prophecy that isn't found in the books of the Old Testament.

Moses wasn't yanked away. He was forbidden to cross over Jordan for striking the rock at Meribah a 2nd time, instead of just speaking to it, failing to hallow God, and breaking the type of Christ revealed in striking the rock. He died on Mt. Nebo and was buried by God.

The saints that are martyrs of the great tribulation are identified as those who will live and reign with Christ for a thousand years. Are you saying that the church doesn't live and reign with Christ, but are judged in the second resurrection?

We weren't saved for ourselves but as ministers of grace, servants to others, and as a nation of high priests interceding for the lost. Why would God create us for a purpose, then remove us before that purpose is complete? We have the testimony of His witness within us, and that testimony is not...

This is along my line of reasoning, and the passage in Isaiah first refers to Israel as His Chosen, then again to Jeshurun as His chosen. The only verse that's problematic is the verse that you highlighted. I don't see the glorified church as falling away, but we do have a falling away or...

The chapter is obviously about maintaining personal purity, but verses 3 through 8 specifically address sexual immorality and adultery. The Thessalonians were a Gentile church and the gentiles were not typically "under" the law of Moses and would only have familiarity if they'd sat under...

The Lord has already judged the world with the flood and will judge it again with fire. God's love is manifest in an age of grace and deliverance from wrath and judgment. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 Do you...

I tend to misplace objects a lot and when getting frustrated in my search, I've frequently asked for the Lord's help to find them. He's generally answered that prayer by reminding me of the last place I saw an object, or just putting me in front of it.

I was catechized as a child but left the RCC immediately after my confirmation at the age of 13, because they did not conform to scripture and behaved in hypocritical ways. I attended secular schools as a child, some secular colleges and two different secular Universities studying primarily the...

There's definitely a visual aspect or you couldn't discern something captured in a photo. Some people call the eyes "the window of the soul" because they commonly reveal emotion and intent. For example, wild eyes on a person is always a cause of concern when there's no obvious reason for panic...
