I'm only taking a wild guess, but in scripture the Lord gives a lot of consideration to birth right and the title of "firstborn". Since there was a son of promise (the One who would crush the serpent's head) from the curse, the generations are considered as according to the son of promise (or...

That's because the verse is about judgment. That which causes offense is removed. The post trib rapture is found in 2 thess. as occurring after the A.C. is revealed (consumed at the coming of Christ). You can only create Pretrib doctrine by loosing the true meaning of scripture, and thereby...

If the church rejects the signs of the times why would the world give a second thought. In my experience, unbelievers are much more cognizant that something is wrong in the world, and are more than a little frightened by it. What is the most common message from the "church" in response? It's...

How will God's saints be witnesses of His judgment if they aren't here for it? Would you make God a liar? This has been His promise for over 2400 years.

Dream on.

God has no intention that His children fix the world, but rather that they spread the gospel by which men are saved or condemned (by their rejection of His Son). Destruction and desolation are already determined as the righteous judgment of willful disbelief: read the Book! I was trying to...

No one knows who the "lost" tribes are but God alone and I'm reasonably sure that you aren't Him. However, the 144,000 will know that they are virgins. They will be very young, and each will have recurrent dreams about the images found on the 12 tribal standards: The lion represents Judah (and...

There is no command to believe in a pretribulation rapture anywhere in scripture as there is no mention of a pretribulation rapture in scripture, anywhere! This is called strong delusion because it is strong, even able to deceive the elect if that were possible. However Christ sends His...

Why would I care about the opinions of poorly educated primitives who had little understanding of scripture and practiced a paganized form of "Christianized" Judaism? I'm a servant of the living God and a part of His body, not of some human institution. I'm not even a member of the congregation...

A most significant rule (of God) that we haven't considered in depth in the "God's rules" post is the actual goal of the ministry of the prophet: reconciliation to God. All prophecy has as its ultimate goal, not simply the revelation of God, but the reconciliation of mankind to the Lord Himself...

I said no such thing, what I did say is that Paul willfully disobeyed the commandment of God and if you believe that its okay to do that then you are the heretic.

Thank God.

More cliff notes theology. Only a theologian or someone as ignorant would try to redefine the meaning of words according to his faith. Good luck though with the box that you're building to live in, perhaps like Noah's ark it will keep you safe during the coming judgment.

I can tell you where to find a free on-line dictionary, but somehow I doubt that it would help. My e-version Websters' defines "self-righteous": "convinced of one's own righteousness especially in contrast with the actions and beliefs of others: narrow-mindedly moralistic. The two people that...

Its also clear that Paul transgressed the law willfully and that some saint worshippers have a problem with the truth.

I think you need some sort of medication.

Cliff note theology. Paul, though he cites his own merit on at least two occasions (under the law a Hebrew of the Hebrews), was in fact and by his own admission the "chief of sinners." This wasn't referring to his life before he met Christ on the road to Damascus, but after. He even chose to...

The text means exactly what it says and I've given you God's explanation for possible reasons, and the text doesn't use the word repent, but that is what the text tells us Paul did (if you take the time to read the whole book of Acts.). AS far as Paul's self righteous attitude, its evident...

Maybe he just thinks that those who don't work should not eat. I don't know the man's mind or heart, beyond what I've seen on his sleeve, but there is one thing that I appreciate about the man, even though I didn't vote for him (or Ms. Clinton.) I can remember presidents going back to JFK and my...

The river of the water of life doesn't end in the city. See Ezekiel chapter 47.
