    Been attacked by the devil or demon for years.. please just ask god to take it from me.

    Uh, no it didn't, you've just assumed that by the comments made. A born again believer can be harassed or oppressed by unclean spirits, but not possessed (inhabited) by them as God is already present in them in the person of the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Christ. You can pray for the deliverance...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Being born again means receiving a new Spirit from God, His Spirit. We are all born with the same breath of life that Adam received from God (life is continuous, it doesn't start at conception. Gametes are alive, not dead tissue.) But Adam came under the curse of God for his rebellion (his...

    No one has ever been good enough, but God Himself.

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    For the pretender (s): 10. "Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand.11. "And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Is there some reason that folks here attack you when they have no legitimate answer to a question which contradicts their fantasies?

    Are you serious? You couldn't possibly do my work for me. My work was prepared for me to do, no one else. If you know the Lord, then the same is true for you.

    I never said that you should do such a thing. No one said that you have to imitate me, and it would be pointless if you did. I wrote my post according to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Of course you have to have His Spirit in order to follow Him.

    An obvious scriptural quote. Take the log out of your eye.

    23. And He said to them, "You will surely say this proverb to Me, `Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in Your country.' '' 24. Then He said, "Assuredly, I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his own country. 25. "But I tell you truly, many...

    So you're unconcerned with what scripture says about the ministry of Christ? If you don't believe the Word, then you'll never believe me. Just fired up my computer for the dullest sword in the scabbard: verses to follow.

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Lots of people think they are saved, by being a church member, or being baptized, or praying a prayer, or receiving "sacraments," etc. , however the saints are those who have been born again of the Spirit of God, and this is actually the ultimate work of biblical faith and a work performed by...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    If Christ is coming in the clouds and in glory, wouldn't we have to rise up into the air to meet Him in order to return with Him. Since a consuming fire goes before Him, don't we have to be transformed into our glorified bodies so that we are not the fleshly targets of judgment?

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    I suppose that I asked more than one question, but the last was most significant to the discussion. How do you reckon that Daniel will rise to His inheritance as we find towards the end of that book? A separate resurrection from the church?

    I'm neither omniscient nor do I possess the ability to see what is in the heart of a man. I'm only able to discern with my senses. Jesus had no such limitations and if you think He went about healing everyone with a disease or congenital condition, then you clearly haven't been careful in your...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Could be, but isn't Revelation 14:1 about the return of Christ with His saints in glory to rule and reign over the remnant of Israel and the nations? E.G.: Daniel is supposed to rise to His inheritance (he was a eunuch and hence a virgin.) How do you reckon that Daniel will return if not in that...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    I think that you're using the word Christian in a much broader sense than a born again believer would. There are riders (church attendees who benefit from their association with genuine believers) and walkers (those that have believed and received Jesus as their Lord and Savior, and walk in His...

    I may be misreading the passages, but aren't the 144000 also martyred during the tribulation period with the last of their number being beheaded in Jerusalem?

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    In the gospels, we rarely find Jesus addressing individuals in public speech, but rather groups of people, sometimes disciples, sometimes scribes and Pharisees, sometimes Saudacees, sometimes priests and the Sanhedrin. Jesus told the high priest (Matthew 26:64) at His trial, that "you will see...
