    I tried to rush the Rapture, and I felt sick (can you do anything apart from God?)

    "Do you think it fits with logic that Jesus turns right around and brings them all back to life again for judgment day just to kill them again after the white throne judgement?" All are resurrected, the wicked and the just on the Last Day. The people of God inherit the 'new' earth, the wicked...

    I tried to rush the Rapture, and I felt sick (can you do anything apart from God?)

    Even premills teach Christ will rule on an earthly throne of David for a 1000 years. So even in their POV, every eye will see Him coming, and reigning over the earth from Jerusalem. Yet you say none of the world will witness that. First time I heard a 1000 year proponent say such a thing. You...

    I tried to rush the Rapture, and I felt sick (can you do anything apart from God?)

    @Dave Watchman, you have been wrong about many things so far that I and others have seen. You should question your misplaced faith, as you do not obey the scriptures, you make up stories. Let it go and believe the scriptures, not your imaginations. Genesis 8:21 And the Lord smelled a soothing...

    I tried to rush the Rapture, and I felt sick (can you do anything apart from God?)

    That DAY, happens when Christ returns to gather His people from the earth, at His coming. When He appears to the world, every eye sees Him coming on the clouds of heaven. That is what Paul the apostle taught and Jesus too. All you have is your traditions. While I have the scripture...

    John 6:39 This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

    30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31 because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.” 32 And when...

    Oil in our water? Anyone hear of that?

    We have no visible issues with tap water. I saw a news report where a well owner has gallons of jet fuel sitting on top of her well water.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    God created the light and the dark, how can you even say darkness existed before the creation? That is illogical and not scriptural. https://www.icr.org/content/creator-darkness “I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace and create evil, I the LORD do all these things” (Isaiah 45:7)...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    Then why did you write this, as you earlier said 'spiritual evil called darkness and death has always existed...' which means 'pre existed', you are confusing yourself, and are inconsistent.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    You were not there to know, no one was except God. And suggesting that it was outside of God's creation, well, that's not scriptural or biblical or even logical.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    https://www.answerthebible.com/what-does-creation-ex-nihilo-mean/ Creation ex nihilo refers to the theological doctrine that God created the universe out of nothing. The Latin phrase “ex nihilo” means “out of nothing”. This doctrine is foundational to much of Christian theology and affirms that...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    'demonic spirit who from the beginning is a liar and murderer.' The beginning mentioned is Jesus referring back the creation of man, Adam and Eve. And their being 'murdered' Satan was a liar and murderer from the beginning, and that started in Eden at the creation of man.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    @rwb, arguing that God used the preexisting darkness to separate the light He created from the darkness which just is everywhere, not made by God.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    This is comical really! We have not been given to know everything, as in step by step of all things God made. Very first verse 'In the beginning' includes whatever states exist, God created those conditions for that to come about. We have been given to know that God created everything, all...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    Key Biblical Passages Supporting Creation from Nothing Genesis 1:1 — “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” This opening verse implies that God initiated creation without pre-existing materials. Hebrews 11:3 — “By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s...

    Romans 8 18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    I have noticed you are not reasonable about the nature of angels or the creation and the fall. Can not accept that God made everything good, yet the creations, some of them made bad choices, and disobeyed God.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    You're postulating there was something before God created anything, and you're calling it the darkness. The only thing that had any 'preexistence' was God. You seem to be setting up a kind of dualism. Scripture was written for US, not God, and simply as a way to understand things, as an...

    Hebrews 1 New King James Version God’s Supreme Revelation 1 God, who [a]at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the [b]worlds...

    That ALL things were created by God in creation, nothing was made unless God made it, including beings that became evil, like Satan All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.
