    Genesis 1 Q&A

    I like discussing science with a believer, so that’s absolutely not a problem!

    The 12 tribes of Israel: They be us.

    God the Father divorced Israel for spiritual adultery in Jeremiah 3:8, which is what ended the first marriage covenant- but Jesus marries the Houses of Israel and Judah, in Jeremiah 31. The meaning of gentile was originally anyone who was outside of the covenant Israel had with Yahweh. The...

    He is a Jew, He is not a Jew: the physical seed of promise

    To cure yourself of replacement theogony, read Romans 11 and everyplace it uses the word Israel, replace it with the word church. When it says salvation came to the gentiles (the church) to make Israel jealous, it means that salvation came to the church to make the church Jealous. When it says...

    He is a Jew, He is not a Jew: the physical seed of promise

    Romans 11 is the cure for replacement theology.

    The Image And Likeness Of God

    Except for scripture that shows the soul leaves the body at death. And IMO, since God at creation had no physical form, but is an eternal spirit, He made man an eternal spirit, in His image, and put us in a temporary home called our body.

    Freedom To Sin

    If you’re using Romans 7 as a proof text passage that it’s okay to live sinfully, you need to finish reading Paul’s writing about the conflict between the flesh and the spirit, in Romans 8. Paul in Romans 8 warns that IF you walk after the flesh you will die, but IF ye through the Spirit do...

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    That battle is Two problems there: 1. Jesus says in John 15, that He is the vine, and we are the branches, and warns that if we bear no fruit, we shall be cut off from the vine of Himself as a dead branch, and burned. This makes it obvious that just being attached to Jesus does not mean...

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    I know why you said that, it’s because God chained the angels who left their first estate in hell, so they can’t sire more angelic hybrids - but it’s apparent that more angels did the same thing after the flood destroyed the nephilim, because of all the cities of giants that lived in the...

    Genesis 1 Q&A

    I love how the illustration of a bowling ball sinking into a rubber sheet, which would require gravity to pull it down into the mat, is used to explain how mass of objects Because it’s a big planet, and had no oceans before the flood, so there was a lot of land area for animals to multiply...

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    Jesus never got that memo - He “ignorantly” cast demons out of people many times. Shalom Aleichem

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    The law Paul speaks of is, GUESS WHAT, the good ole LAW OF MOSES. You are still showing that you just don’t get it. Ziggy is right on the money. The law of Moses has ended for believers- which is why, per my OP, Paul extensively countered the continuing first century claim by Jewish converts...

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    Abraham was justified by works which PERFECTED HIS FAITH - James. You still obviously haven’t read what I wrote. The topic is the fact that there clearly are works that justify believers, that Paul’s emphasis against keeping works of the law of Moses, does not negate. We are justified by...

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    Wow, you have no idea in the world what the facts are. PAUL: Abraham was justified APART FROM WORKS JAMES: Abraham WAS JUSTIFIED BY WORKS as are all men. That seeming contradiction is explained, along with the kind of works each apostle wrote about.

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    As I said, Pauls emphasis is heavily on gentile believers not having to keep the works of the law of Moses. You exposed the fact you didn’t actually read all I wrote, or you’d know why Paul spent so much time countering the Jewish Christians claim that gentile believers had to keep the works...

    saved by faith alone

    To him that WORKETH WORKS OF THE LAW OF MOSES - that’s what Paul means. You missed the fact that every time paul mentions works, it’s ALWAYS in the context of WORKS OF THE LAW OF MOSES. Always. Every time. Without exception. You proved you absolutely didn’t read what I wrote - I covered your...

    Is revelation chapter 19 actually the second coming or a different message?

    Matthew 25 establishes that the wedding supper occurs at Jesus’ second coming to the earth: Mat 25:10 And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut. Mat 25:11 Afterward the other virgins came...

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    The second coming is visible to all. In Acts 1 Jesus ascends bodily and visibly on a cloud from Mount Olive, and an angel says this same Jesus will return in like manner as you have SEEN Him leave: Act 1:9 And when he had said these things, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a...

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    PAUL: Abraham was justified apart from works. JAMES: Abraham WAS justified by works, as are all men Conflicting scriptures? No, it’s two different kinds of works. It’s sad that the majority of believers never read anything but someone’s proof texts on a given topic - this is especially true...
