    Is The Book Of Revelations Still Sealed?

    Well, I'm hoping for the resurrection. I've lived with pain for over 40 years and I'd appreciate living for some time without it. Whatever the case may be, I don't think the Lord will disappoint His people or break His word.

    Mary found the tomb empty...where did Jesus body go?

    Considering that the church allowed the body parts of saints to be scattered and kept as Holy Relics, perhaps the Lord didn't want the body of Moses desecrated in such a fashion, but the Lord showed me that Hoshea son of Nun was a type of Christ a long time ago, and it's been understood from...

    Mary found the tomb empty...where did Jesus body go?

    Jesus is a Person and He spoke of the Holy Spirit as one like Him. He described Him as taking of His and giving to His disciples. That seems like something a person does to me.

    Mary found the tomb empty...where did Jesus body go?

    I knew the passage was in Deuteronomy, but I'm terrible with chapter and verse numbers, so I searched on Bing. 4 Then the Lord said to him, “This is the land of which I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have caused you to see it with your...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    I'm sure that the Lord will be grateful for your protection and loving service in His name. See you at the Bema seat of Christ.

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    Possibly, but do you reject him as a brother because of his nonbiblical arguments or angry exchanges? I'm still trying to find a biblical verse that even justifies debate. If debate leads to transgression, then it's better to avoid it. We're all created in the image of God, but some understand...

    Is The Book Of Revelations Still Sealed?

    I would recommend not dividing the word according to the covenants, but trying to understand scriptures in their context and ultimately as the revelation of God in the person of His Son. 20 For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us. 2 Corinthians...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    There are multiple translations of scripture and every single one reflects the belief of the translators. Some are better or worse than others, but everyone clings jealously to that upon which their faith is based. Someone who sees their church as "holy mother", will defend their church to well...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    Is provocation a good work?

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    Good to see the transforming power of Christ has changed you, brother. Still winning souls for Christ? If you see people you're arguing with as idiots, why do you even bother? The ignore button really works.

    Mary found the tomb empty...where did Jesus body go?

    I remember the Crosby, Stills, and Nash lyric too "and we have to get ourselves back to the garden", but that would make the entire history of man an exercise in vanity and futility. God had a purpose in "the fall" and I'm pretty sure it's about the revelation of His love in the person of His...

    Mary found the tomb empty...where did Jesus body go?

    Yes, and scripture isn't randomly interpreted but agrees with itself when understood as taught by God. If you do a word search for "white robe" in scripture or just "robe", you'll get passages that broaden your understanding on the significance of garments or coverings, keeping in mind that the...

    Mary found the tomb empty...where did Jesus body go?

    Funny, but God who spoke all things into existence is capable of doing anything you can imagine (and doesn't need a shovel.) However, He normally doesn't violate His character or the order He created in His creation. (The miraculous is a rarity, not the norm.)

    Mary found the tomb empty...where did Jesus body go?

    It's safe to trust what scripture says, but it should be understood that the white robes given the saints represent the righteousness of God in christ Jesus.

    Mary found the tomb empty...where did Jesus body go?

    When Mary and the disciples saw the risen Christ, He could spontaneously appear and disappear at will, and these aren't generally the qualities of "flesh". Thomas was told to put his finger in the wounds, but there is no mention of blood. Peter tells us something of where Jesus went before He...

    Romanism, Arminianism and Calvinism.

    Good to see you round and about again brother, but be advised, your answering a cultists who doesn't believe the volume of the book.

    Who can speak to the text?

    Men don't live in a heavenly realm. That's not the description of creation from Genesis and whether you believe Genesis or not, the text is foundational to scripture. The Bible is progressive Revelation of God in the person of His Son. Jesus Himself quoted from the creation account in support...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    That's a tough one as I'm called a trinitarian by non Trinitarians and a modalist by folks who can't understand the concept of "manifestation" and a division by order and purpose. Serving God is serving God, but true monotheism sees God revealed in three persons, not three persons unified as one...

    Israel ready to build the Temple of God.

    The temple institute has existed for decades now, but they can't rebuild the temple in its original location while the Al Asqa mosque is still standing. The dome of the rock is one of the most holy sites in Islam and I think that the rock under the dome was the threshing floor of aruana, which...

    Can Stealing be Justified?

    Sin isn't justified, but sinners can be justified by turning to Christ and making His death propitiation for their sin: Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him; He has put Him to grief. When You make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, And the pleasure...
