These guys don't care what the word says if it disagrees with their preconceptions, but I could never believe anyone who holds to doctrines that diminish Christ or the Holy Spirit, and that don't baptize in the name of all 3. The Lord knows how to deal with rebellion. It's not our job.

Ever read the phrase "come let us reason" in scripture? It isn't important that we understand everything, but understanding helps us apply the word to our lives and get to know the Lord a little better. It's great if you can memorize scripture, because the Holy Spirit can apply verses directly...

Ok fine, you believe what you want to believe. Pretty sure that you'll get to ask the Lord about these things shortly.

No, it doesn't.

That's just a small fraction of Jesus in the OT Pretty sure that I posted a series of short studies on this site a long time ago called seeing Jesus, which had more things to look at, but was by mo means comprehensive. Jesus appears in "types", like Samson the Nazarite from birth, Joshua the Son...

You're not at all mistaken about the nature of covenants in general, but God is able to make covenants with both men and beast without man's consent as you see in the example of his covenant with Noah, his descendants, and all the creatures that came through the flood. These covenants are called...

Wow! Try again! Why are the remnant of the nations (gentiles) required to keep the "feast of booths" (or tabernacles) in the millennial kingdom? You do know that this was a perpetual ordinance given to those under the law, right?

I thought it was good to call Jesus my Master and friend, but Lord and older brother, that was unimaginable once. What an incomprehensible thing! Glory to the Lord, our Savior Jesus Christ, Glory to our risen Savior, Glory to the Father through the Son, Glory to His Spirit who keeps us for the...

Yup, tell me that next Sunday.

At my first reading I just wanted to know more about Jesus and because I loved to hear what Jesus said and did from the gospel readings at Catholic masses. I sincerely wanted to be like Him, but didn't know how to be anything but me. I wasn't even conscious of my sin. So I read, understanding...

Oseas is in trouble then. 15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; 16 having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good...

That my dear brother, is impossible for reasons that I've already mentioned.

Thank you so much. I've missed this all my life. I'm familiar with the hand tool called a coping saw, but never actually knew what a coping is. Some of my translations use the word "eaves" which on sloped roofs aren't located at the top of the building but I never gave a thought to a building...

I'm not sure if its repeated in scripture, but I know it from Zechariah. Every stone building has a final stone placed. If the building were like a pyramid with corbelled architecture, the top stone would be the capstone. If the building was created using "true arches", the final stone, the...

Would you agree that the church (in this age) is complete with the capstone? Here's a funny question. If Lucifer became a man would he be homo sapiens angelus?;)

Thank you. This is awesome and helpful. Though I'm familiar with the use of genus in biological science, I've never come across the term "synedoche". I looked it up and it makes perfect sense, but I don't believe that I want to keep it in my vocabulary. It's hard enough to be understood using...

?

Maybe, but that doesn't make Adam any less of a prophet, because the gifts and calling of God are irrevocable. Let me tell you a secret. God gave me a new name and I'm not supposed to speak it, but it's an old name and tied to the Earth for at least a thousand years. It confused me a bit, but...

Pretty sure that Keras would agree that rapture is a contrived word for the gathering together of the saints at Christ's return and our transformation to bodies meant to endure at least a thousand years.

Haven't a clue what you're talking about, but my footsteps were always guided by His word, until I received His Spirit by faith through prayer at the age of 39. I've always preached judgment and the unrighteousness of men, but after receiving Him, I've been also preaching His return, been...
