    Rapture ... soon?

    This is interesting information that I never really considered. I'll have to give it more thoughtful study.

    Rapture ... soon?

    I don't believe it's nonsense understanding that being possessed by evil is what comes naturally to man whose heart has not been made new through knowledge of the Holy Spirit within them. Demon possession is to have our hearts, and minds under the power of evil. When we are cleansed by Christ...

    Rapture ... soon?

    I agree. From the heart the mouth speaks. The evil within is through our natural nature, having an evil heart in unbelief. That's why when we are born again, we are no longer natural man, we've become supernatural spiritual man with a new heart and new spirit. Natural man is of the devil...

    Yep, for about ten years now!

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    I've determined you must be a troll, for who else would try so hard to convince Christians who have not yet studied for themselves, into believing they should not waste their time because you believe the Bible is a contradictory word to deceive the masses.

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    Logos is a Divine Expression concerning Christ, Who was from the beginning of creation with the Triune Godhead! He is the Creator of all that was created, for this cause He became flesh & blood. Logos is written as "holy Scriptures", "word", "sayings" "gospel of God" things which are written...

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    I will never come to believe there is contradiction in the Word of God! Why would anyone try to separate Christ and the written Word? John 1:1-4 (KJV) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were...

    Rapture ... soon?

    Good Morning David, The prophecy was fulfilled through the birth of Christ (Rev 12). That's when there was war in heaven and Satan and his demonic spirits were cast out of heaven to the earth. That's when the angels of heaven rejoiced because salvation through the Christ child has come...

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    Why do you doubt the truthfulness of both accounts TOGETHER? Is it because you have determined the Word of God cannot be trusted because you think it filled with contradiction?

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    Better still, why not simply quote what the Bible actually says, as I have done! And stop trying to create a feel-good bible that appeals to the flesh! If we aren't secure in the trustworthiness of the Bible, why bother with it at all? Let's just continue on as we have from the beginning...

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    Yes, as Solomon tells us, "there is nothing new under the sun." This desire to bring doubt upon the Word of God is why Adam and Eve were deceived by the serpent. The serpent that was created to be more cunning and crafty than all, GOD allowed to be in the garden with His new created humans...

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    Satan can do and does only that which God allows. There are NO CONTRADICTIONS in the Word of God! Only those who are themselves looking for contradiction will try to force God to contradict Himself.

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    There is no contradiction! There is better clarity, understanding when both are read together and one remembers that when necessary, God has always used evil to bring about good. In this case by allowing an evil spirit to test David, David learned valuable lessons we should all take notice of.

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    There is no contradiction! God uses evil spirits to accomplish His purposes! There is NO contradiction, rather we are supplied with more detail, greater clarity for why the LORD allowed Satan to try David. The lesson for David might have been to teach him not to rely on evil spirits, but...

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    The Bible loses credibility because people who don't know any better try to convince us the Bible is not trustworthy because God contradicts Himself! This is absolute folly! THRE ARE NO CONTRADICTIONS WITH GOD!

    Rapture ... soon?

    This does not answer the question! If Satan had not been bound by the cross and resurrection, how could there be salvation for any man? Where in Scripture can we find that the binding of Satan will usher in a "far far less evil place"? So many believe as you do, that when Satan is bound...

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    What difference does it make? Clearly there is no contradiction!

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    Difference in the wording and explanation yes, contradictions between them NO!

    How can you find the truth when biblically supported views contradict?

    As I've argued from the start there are no contradictions in the account written of Jarius and his daughter.
