    Girl and Her Family Needs A Prayer!

    I write this to you with a bit of good news...this is about someone that some good friends of mine know.Today, I found out about a girl by the name of Charlie. She has been through some very rough times with her family and had her mother literally run away with another woman. This obviously...

    Arrowhead(Point) Collecting

    Well around here they're found in wooded areas and areas under development. So leaving them amounts to them probably never being seen again by either being destroyed or being buried again. I've come across a burial ground myself. There was actually a bone of some sorts laying right nearby so I...

    Arrowhead(Point) Collecting

    Do we have any other collectors here? It has become a favorite pastime of mine in the past few months and I've really begun to learn about the local tribes. It's amazing at the history and some of the sites that I have come across where structures have been built of amazing size.

    Do you believe in the literal word-for-word Genesis account of creation?

    God told Adam to not eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil,Adam ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, Adam disobeyed God,therefore Adam sinned. Know what the trees are. I've been there in the study and I'm not going there again if you choose not to believe it. God said don't do...

    Well right but that's the focus of this site - discussing and learning within Christianity. I don't expect everyone to agree because Christ himself told us he came to bring division. With debates with a Christian and nonChristian, it always comes down to the same old arguments that are never...

    If I may...

    Not necessarily, religion is not so much a scientific debate as it is emotional and spiritual. That's not to say there is no science and cannot be scientific discussions. The problem comes down to people feeling very passionate about their beliefs and it's often near impossible to temper it.

    Do you believe in the literal word-for-word Genesis account of creation?

    The sin is not in sex itself, I've never stated that in the study. The sin comes in that it was against what God said. That messages holds whether or not you believe in the fairy tale or believe there is more there. It doesn't really come into conflict at all with Genesis 2:16-17. Getting back...

    Help--False Prophets!

    All I can say is go back the parable of the fig tree. You'll know something like this by its fruit and the religions that make it up again show this one-worldism that continues to permeate into the world's religions. It goes to show you how some will believe anything. I have to say these let's...

    Rapture, Will There Be One?

    Now wouldn’t you think some of these Bible scholars would have made some kind of comment about the rapture or lack thereof if this actually referred to it? I don't base my interpretation on what the commentary does or doesn't say. False doctrines and flying away are nothing new under the sun, I...

    i'm a newbie - need prayer for fiancee

    You've got it Matt! Remember to let her do it of her own free will, but don't be afraid to try and help where you can. This is a wonderful way to do that.

    Rapture, Will There Be One?

    It seems that you see an association with that specific belief and a vulnerability to the Anti-Christ. That makes it dangerous indeed! But what about the rapture as a specific belief makes it so vulnerable (compared to other incorrect beliefs) to this deception? Typically, at least in my own...

    Rapture, Will There Be One?

    We don't run them off, they run off. Perhaps I am the only one who senses the irony here?

    1611 version?

    I only question the number of times it was translated. Greek to Latin, Latin back to Greek, and then from that version of Greek to English. It seems like a lot of opportunity for things to be lost in translation. Take the NIV for example it is translated straight from the Greek. Less opportunity...

    1611 version?

    I have one as well so how many books in yours? This will tell if you have the 1611 or a slightly new version 1640 or later. To answer your question, I do have the apocrypha included. As stated, the original copy is 1611. That shouldn't need to be stated. I also have later copies excluding them...

    Rapture, Will There Be One?

    I do have a question since you will be here with your family and you can't buy or sell or trade unless you have the mark and your family is starving to death what are you doing to do? God will provide. He provided manna in the wilderness. He provide salvation. He provided for Israel, the...

    1611 version?

    Is it the only Bible or is it just the best? When you say KJV do you mean 1611 KJV? KJV = King James Version, authorized 1611. I have a copy of the original manuscript as well as the slightly modernized version that updated the alphabet. It is the best by far for English translations and I'd...

    The Lamb That Spake As A Dragon

    It's just as you said, they'll all see Christ in his coming. I'd even expand on your first comment and say know Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 since they parallel each other but offer important perspectives on the same event. They are indeed the condensed version of Revelation. But getting...

    Rapture, Will There Be One?

    Did they really know that Christ hadn't returned?? They didn't have Revelation to read! No, but they had the Scriptures to read. They certainly had Daniel amongst others including both Epistles to the Thessalonians. You keep saying the 7th trumpet. It's not the 7th trumpet that 1 Thes. is...
