    Why can't God count?

    Shalom, Stranger. That was easy. OF COURSE, I "have ground to stand on!" This phrase on which you're bumping your head, "from Adam," means in the course of counting, NOT descending "from Adam!" That's why you're getting this wrong! "Adam is 'from God'" is not the same thing as what Y'hudah is...

    Why can't God count?

    Shalom, Ebed232. Just what in the world do you think you are doing? God did NOT design His Word around PI! Pi is simply the Greek letter used in mathematics as the symbol for the number that represents the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. What does THAT have to do with the...

    Why can't God count?

    Shalom, Stranger. Have you or anyone so far checked the Greek? Jude 14 14 Proefeeteusen de kai toutois hebdomos apo Adam Henooch legoon, “Idou eelthen Kurios en hagiais muriasin autou." I find it ridiculous and ironic that people take such stands on nothing but an English translation. I guess...

    satan is in charge of every thing God ordian on the earth.

    Shalom, eldios. EXCUSE me?! Did you just say that you have the exclusive on the "knowledge of God called Christ?" Would you care to explain that in a condensed version? I haven't been following along, and I'd like to know how you've come to this conclusion. Could you explain it for me or point...

    The New Heaven and Earth

    Shalom, ezekiel. Sorry, but you have not investigated the Greek text nor the vocabulary of the verse in question. First of all, the vocabulary you need to understand is the word "angel": He was "heis ek toon hepta aggeloon" or "one of the seven angels," and an "angel" is... NT:32 aggelos...

    The New Heaven and Earth

    Shalom, "ezekiel." Hmmmm... Well, perhaps, but no more than He does to me. Also, for clarity's sake, please try to remember the rules for run-on sentences. You should have written, "Take your time. Ask the elders. Your council is of men." Now, really? Oh, I see. YOU'VE got SPECIAL REVELATION...

    The New Heaven and Earth

    Shalom, all. Does anyone here speak English? What IS all this ... NONSENSE! this ... DRIVEL! First of all, stick to one passage of Scripture at a time. It will make more sense if you do. I'm going to start with the New Earth as it is described in Revelation 21 and 22. Look at my avatar, for...

    Heaven is Not Where Those Who Are Saved Go

    Shalom, n2thelight. You should be aware that Yeshua`s statement in Mark 12:27 is regarding YHWH being the God of Avraham, Yitschaq, and Ya`aqov, who were very much still in their graves when He said it! Look at the verse in its context: Mark 12:18-27 18 Then come unto him the Sadducees...

    Unpardonable Sin.

    Shalom, Trekson. Seriously?! Do you REALLY want to go to what STRONG'S says?! First, "blasphemy" is a TRANSLITERATION of the Greek word "blasfeemia." (I use an "e" for epsilon, "ee" for eta, "o" for omicron, "oo" for omega, and an "f" for phi. That way, I don't have to have some special font...

    Unpardonable Sin.

    Shalom, blessedhope. Oh, it's far easier to understand than that. "To blaspheme" means "to belittle." When you "put down" the Holy Spirit of God, WHO'S LEFT?! That's why it's the "unpardonable sin!" See, the Ruwach haQodesh Elohiym (the Holy Spirit of God) is NOT the Judge! John 5:21-23 21 For...

    Amillennialism

    Shalom, Trekson. I'll give a little more feedback. Perhaps, the best way to talk about the Kingdom of God is to recognize the three factors that must be present to be a Kingdom: There must be a legitimate heir present and active to be King; there must be a realm; and, there must be willing...

    Removed!

    Shalom, Michael. Well,... Romans 11:17-24 17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; 18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the...

    Amillennialism

    Shalom, Naomi25. You said, "Amil's have a Christ centered hermeneutic. We believe that the whole Bible, the whole OT is pointing to Christ. The promises were for Christ and were fulfilled in Christ. Honestly, I can't support anything that doesn't have Jesus as centre." That sounds so high and...

    Amillennialism

    Shalom, Trekson. It's really easy to read my "long posts." Just read between the Scripture passages. That's what I actually wrote. However, I will frequently post the Scripture passages, too, because they are so often missed or misread.

    Removed!

    Shalom, Trekson. Yes, I'm still around. Glad to see you're still here, too! I don't stop in very often, however, because there's so much work to do here! I feel as though it would take longer than I probably have in this lifetime to even lay a foundation! Still, I love the people here, and will...

    Removed!

    Shalom, blessedhope. Never fear. We have not yet BEGUN to "preach the gospel of the Kingdom" to all the world, and Yeshua` (Jesus) said, Matthew 24:10-14 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and...

    Zion, the Promised Land

    Shabbat shalom, keras. Ummm.... not necessarily. Modern Christians have a dichotomy of "Christianity" that is biased in the wrong direction. They think "Christian vs. non-Christian," but the Scriptures teach something else. Explore this with me: Would you say that all who claim they are...

    Zion, the Promised Land

    Shalom, keras. I need to inform you of two things: First, you're right when you said that "they will welcome Jesus (Yeshua`) as He returns in His glory," The phrase "blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord" is originally found in Psalm 118:26: Psalm 118:26 26 Blessed be he that cometh...

    Did Jesus say He Was God?

    Shabbat shalom, brakelite. NO! Don't be duped by the rhetoric of the Catholic Church with that "eternal Sonship" nonsense! The Word BECAME the Son! (John 1:14, 32-34) There is no "pre-incarnate Jesus" He was not named "Jesus" until just before He was conceived! Luke 1:30-35 30 And the angel...

    Did Jesus say He Was God?

    Shabbat shalom, Dan57. Yeshua` IS divine! He was the Word who was God before His incarnation, and He is the Son of God after His incarnation. BUT, there has to be a way to show that He is a DIFFERENT PERSON from His Father! They are not so "one" that you can't tell the difference between them...
