It's been quite a while since I read the war scroll and the original found at Qumran was incomplete, missing words and the final section. It's not in the canon, but the Essenes valued it. It discusses the war of the sons of light ( against the sons of darkness.) I just wanted to add a few verses...

I really hope that you guys don't read into scripture the way you read into posts.

I got the Johnson & Johnson vaccine a little over a week ago. The shot was shallow and in my left deltoid. I'm not real thrilled about receiving an injection of mRNA, not having any idea what coding is being pumped in, but I'd be able to feel a foreign body by palpating the injection site (last...

Pretty sure that the army is holding until Revelation 14:6-7 is fulfilled.

The Lord says some peculiar things. “Hear, you deaf; And look, you blind, that you may see. Who is blind but My servant, Or deaf as My messenger whom I send? Who is blind as he who is perfect, And blind as the Lord’s servant? Seeing many things, but you do not observe; Opening the ears, but he...

Sound and godly advice for us all and a word in season indeed! I'm not inclined to look for signs, probably because of Christ's rebuke, but I can't help but recognize them for what they are. Sometimes God gives them for encouragement because He knows the wickedness of our fallen nature and our...

Esau's children became Edom and Edom later became Idumea. You do know that the word Jew is derived from the name Judah while the word Hebrew is derived from the name Eber, yes?

In Christ, we don't get to remain autonomous, but the concept of mutual submission tends to have people tumbling over themselves all the time. We have to be completely submitted vertically (under Christ) in order to approach any form of mutual submission horizontally (with other believers at...

Everyone received into the body of Christ comes empty handed and in spiritual infancy. Nothing that we bring with us, nothing we might consider a strength, is of any value in glorifying God. However, our weaknesses, our infirmities, our foolishness and even our vanities, are assets in the hands...

Learn how to test the spirits and do so. The unclean ones exist to confuse and deceive. The ones that blaspheme are easy to discern, but flatterers, mockers, and pretenders will all test you and your knowledge of His word. Spiritual discernment is a wonderful gift, but it's one that needs to be...

Perhaps the average person is the lunatic and what makes you different is seeing that difference. The sun shines and the rain falls on the unjust and just alike, but we have different eyes.

For affliction does not come from the dust, Nor does trouble spring from the ground; Yet man is born to trouble, As the sparks fly upward. Job 5:6-7 God affirms His word in the lives of His servants.

Sorry to hear about your difficulties sharing your message, but you should know, that like Elijah in the days of Ahab and Jezebel, you might feel alone in your calling and purpose, but you're far from it. First, understand that some seminaries teach that the spiritual gifts were strictly...

Uh, I didn't reduce the commandments to two. That was this Jewish carpenter from Nazareth, I believe His name was Yashua. He'll be around shortly to explain things.

Uh, get a dictionary or even better, a good concordance, and look up the words "catholic" and "church." Then, maybe meaningful conversation is possible, but I see discussion with those enslaved by Roman dogma to be at best, an exercise in futility, and at worst an exercise in vanity. Have you...

Exactly, Holy mother church, not Holy mother Roman church.

That's the written testimony as it applies to itself. I have however seen some verses from a single translation be interpreted with opposing meanings. Our eyes don't all see the same thing when it comes to spiritual matters and I suppose that must conform to God's purposes or it wouldn't...

I'm not suggesting anything other than the fact that translations reflect the doctrine of the translators. If the translators have the One who inspired scripture within them, I would be more inclined to trust the translation, but I don't believe that anyone on the planet understands the Bible...

That's similar to John MacArthur's explanation of the 1st resurrection, but doesn't seem consistent with the book of the revelation or 1 Corinthians. When it comes to the former, I'm not inclined to accept secret doctrines that alter the content and meaning, as the book has a serious curse...

Maybe mushrooms of the genus pscillocybe, but the western tribes used a cactus button they call peyote, the source of the hallucinogen mescaline. Some achieved the same altered state of consciousness through fasting singing, and sleep deprivation.
