    The Ten Lost Tribes Theory

    It would be the one I quoted. :) It's a blanket statement made about the NT totally ignoring the context of the NT in the OT which clearly talks about the two as separate on at least this one occasion. Unfortunately the above quoted statement makes it entirely too easy to draw the false...

    Should A True Christian Teach Evolution In School?

    Well, I think sometimes the "Theory of Evolution" needs to be defined. IE: Some people limit it to the idea that things evolve. I don't think anyone will say that some animals (and even humans) adapt over time to their environment. I don't see a point where God said "I created everything one way...

    The Ten Lost Tribes Theory

    We have a single, unified Bible: Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, [even] with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one...

    ~The Leadership Role~

    Cleaning the junk up. Let me just take a quick moment to say that if you come across something that breaks a rule - there are ways to approach it nicely. The simplest method is just to let myself or the staff know by reporting the thread and issue(s). I don't see where the OP tried to take...

    The Rapture Lie

    I hate to remove this topic because regardless of the insults, there is a good core discussion here. I'll leave it for now, but please refrain from dirtying the thread with the insults and other comments. Thanks!

    Statement On The Mess

    You know, I've had a pretty insane week - like we all do at times - with a family member's wreck, life changes, and other personally things that kept me away from the computer for everything but a few minutes a night. I had a pretty high opinion of this community, but I login to find nothing...

    Denominational Buffet

    This is exactly why we have denominations. (It's one of those facepalm times.) We are first and foremost Christians. That is a fact that seems neglected amongst the denominational choices out there. I'm doing this to rag on any one person, but we see the above time and again in simple posts...

    The Rapture Lie

    I think the same could be said for others here including yourself. Not you in particular in this one aspect, but there are abundant examples of where the subject is brought up time and again even in unrelated threads. Then there are other examples where the typical 'gang" shows up on the subject...

    The Rapture Lie

    Or the reader lacks the knowledge to know where the church is at because he/she does not read. I'm sorry, but that comment is a joke, literally; that's the worst advice I've heard yet. Anyone (scholars, critics, etc.) quotes Scripture. Heck even Satan quotes it, so what does that tell you...

    The Rapture Lie

    I Thessalonians 4:15 Sure, at the last trump. I Corinthians 15:51-52 See I Thessalonians 4:15 and I Thessalonians 4:17 I Corinthians 15:52 That's neglecting the given timeline of the seven trumpet blasts. We know from Revelation that there are seven of them and the Lord comes back at the...

    The Rapture Lie

    Okay, I'm going back to Brother Mike's initial posting. I specifically kept out of this thread because I think the studies I've done on the subject have been pretty clear. If you don't agree with them so be it, but I see too many Holy Spirit claims to validate the words. Let me remind you that...

    Shall We Suffer In The Tribulation Period. I Think Not.

    Mike, it's repeatedly called the hour of temptation or trial depending on the version: Because you have kept my word about patient endurance, I will keep you from the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world, to try those who dwell on the earth. Yes it's rather clearly stated that we...

    Shall We Suffer In The Tribulation Period. I Think Not.

    I'm not sure what you mean with this question? In relation to what? As far as what I generally say, it's in Scripture. Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. (By the way, I know I need to reformat that...

    Judgement Of America By God

    Cleaned this up a bit, please stay on topic!

    Jesus Christ And The Ten Commandment.

    Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. or truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished. Therefore whoever relaxes one of the least of...

    Forgiveness

    For Christ also died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit; in which also He went and made proclamation to the spirits now in prison, Actually had a very similar question in another...

    My wife just had an impacted wisdom tooth removed yesterday and I'm about 1.5 years out of having mine out (only had 3/4). The pain stinks, but you will feel better! I know the majority of my headaches ceased not long after. I sent a prayer for a speedy recovery! You should be back in business...

    Millennium

    Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast [some] of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. Christians are tried indeed. Yes we have the victory and...
