    Why study the end times?

    Simple, Christ repeatedly tell us to.Revelation 1:3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. Mark 13:22-23 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and...

    The Two Witnesses

    What Denver, you were not able to read REV 18. or have you forgotten how to open your Bible? Chaptero 18 describes buying and selling everything--including humans. Money is above every thing. What you didn't notice? Too blinded by something else you already believe? samy Well, like everyone else...

    The Two Witnesses

    (Name calling in posts about the Bible seems really like something off the playground.) If John meant Jerusalem, why didn't he simply write Jerusalem? Finally, a response!So samy, do you just always ignore posts when you cannot explain something away and diverst the subject? I guess the crusade...

    Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed

    Well, us southerners are pretty much used to this "dumb south" perception. I always go back to the facts that the south and midwest are the two fastest growing economic sectors in America - and, as they say, the facts don't lie. I think Stein's motive - as highlighted so well already - was to...

    Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed

    I haven't had the chance yet, but I'm planning on seeing this one myself.

    The Two Witnesses

    Denver, Here is where hermeneutics is so important in Revelation. The text does not say "Jerusalem." It says, "upon the street of the great city which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt where also their Lord was crucified." Pure nonsense. There is only one placed where our Lord was crucified...

    The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    Kriss, I will only deal with specifics with you. I just checked your statement that "God calls Satan a man in Ezekiel 28 and Isaiah 14" against an exhaustive concordance of the King James Version of the Bible (that is what you use I believe), and the word "Satan" does not occurr anywhere in...

    The Anti Christ a Jew?

    A head of the EU will be one of the 10 earthly kings spoken of both in Revelation and Daniel. It won't be the Antichrist himself, for there is only one Antichrist and he's not yet here.

    Reformation of 15th century

    It boils down to the simple fact that a group of people (and I personally believe quite rightly so) recognized that they did not need a mediator between them and God.This over-arching theme is confirmed to us by literature of the time. Things were sold - saints body parts, indulgences, and so...

    Meltdown of the dollar underway as China turns away currency...

    Well there is a rather obvious solution to this one - don't buy Chinese products. They need us absolutely as much as we need them, so two can play at that game so to speak.However, I think it's a case of preaching to the choir here, but we all know that this is just a part of the bigger action...

    The Two Witnesses

    They're not in Philadelphia nor Smyrna, the two are in Jerusalem (Revelation 11:8). You're basically suggesting that they kill two churches here but mysteriously they're addressed as one body only in this single instance. Everywhere else there are, rather distinctly, two witnesses.

    "The Antichrist" teaching is a myth

    Most all of the top theologins agree that Judas inJohn 17:12 agree that Judas was called the son of peridition. crooner, I love you brother, but don't give me that. It's the proverbial "if all of the top theologians were jumping off the bridge, would you do it too?" scenario. Who are we...

    The Two Witnesses

    samy, thanks for the explanation of where you are getting this from at least.However, your own interpretation falls in on itself quite quickly with all due respect. The problem is that they are addressed as the two olive trees described outside of the seven candlesticks. What you're proposing is...

    Is it acceptable to question your faith?

    Well, it comes down to are you are Christian or are you not a Christian? What's your answer to that?

    Pick and choose from each religion

    Who or what I worship (if anything) is of no consequence. Querying the patterns, behaviors, and beliefs of those who claim "Truth" however, is a completely legitimate act, done with all due respect. On the contrary, this is a Christian site, where the authority is established upon the Bible. If...

    Pick and choose from each religion

    Agreed, this topic is being moved to the nonChristian forum so that the poster can respond. We have to draw the line and one worldism will not thrive on this forum. You're free to worship who/what you want (if anything) but we have to draw the line.Topic moved.

    All sins are not equal!!

    Marksman, if what you say is true, just how can you mock/rail against the Holy Spirit but yet not manage to do the same when you mock/rail against Christ (which is clearly noted to be forgiven)? Are they - Christ and the Holy Spirit - different?

    Former President Carter

    He is literally a loose cannon. I think we are all just about ashamed of him now.

    The Two Witnesses

    Careful yourself my friend - the second advent has not yet occurred.Getting to what I meant by body, I meant body of people. I'm sorry if that was not clear, but I thought it would be.Secondly, and perhaps more importantly here, I'd really like know what you base "body" over "bodies" off of?

    Favorite Bible Verse

    I tend to have chapters as opposed to verses, I think I've said that before in a thread just like this one.Psalm 91 is among my favorites.
