Thank you Walter and Debbie! Thank you for being concise...although that also can lead to misunderstandings just as going on and on. But I like concise, because all this is all made concise by God as in the one man Adam, as compared with the One man Jesus Christ. It is His way...in more ways...

I don't see why you call your explanation "disagreement." Is this not all described by God as the dividing "the light from the darkness", and also as the unfolding of one man Adam into all who are born of the flesh divided from all who are born of God in One man Jesus Christ? And if...

Whoever is righteous was judged righteous when the Lamb was slain before the foundation of the world, then only revealed when the times are fulfilled, Just as it was with Jesus. The point...is not one to disagree over, but to be understood--understood because it is a point Christ has made. He...

The comma issue again. I just addressed it earlier in post #14: Both are fine translations, regardless of the comma placement. The issue, and the problem, however, is not to be solved or fully understood merely by the rule of times according to the ways of this world as they are defined. The...

I quoted you...you clearly stated the who and what, I didn't need to build anything, nor did I. You said enough, I just pointed it out...and you apparently didn't like hearing it.

To clarify...Events change, but God's methods and His ways do not change. He may not use the same method for everything--but that doesn't mean His methods change--it means He changes one of His methods to another of His methods, and He has lots of different methods. But when things repeat, or...

Yes, I keep repeating what you have not included in your short-fall doctrine...which is not proof, but an offer of help, if not a warning. I am not "adding" that conclusion, but revealing it, as it was given to me by God to do--it is not mine, but His who sent me.

I didn't say there is any other or additional foundation--I said the is a "finish." Why do you not fully acknowledge that a finish was yet to come?

I am not assuming anything. But your explanation...is just you talking, you interpreting. And "It does not say"...applies to your every argument also. "Nobody today can claim authority to reveal them?" Do you hear yourself? You just said that God cannot do what He has done and can indeed do...

The problem is, you have referred to the church and the understanding of men--or your own understanding of the scriptures, as the final say. What is missing in all that, is that God's word and what is true or not, is under God's providence alone...He hasn't left things under control of corrupt...

No...the Gnostics did not teach what I said (pointing out the greater points of scripture), they taught that Jesus had already come (pass tense). Next! No again...Jesus rose from the dead bodily, yes. But that was not His ascension which is the pattern example of those who follow Him as...

See what you just did? You revealed that you believe it is "the church" who appoints "apostles and prophets." No wonder you take the position you have. :(

Dangerous for sure--good word--great job! The doctrine that negatively and greatly effects more people however, came from those "false teachers" who actually made it into the church with their "destructive heresies" that have been taught within the church ever since, even to this present day. I...

Unfortunately for you much of the scriptures are also more than simple, even considered of demons, crazy, and the words of drunken men, as it is written. You should know that. Your setting limits is on you.

Sorry that you are not of a mind to believe the greater things of God that, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

You were doing well until the last paragraph--with all exegesis. It is indeed understandable that we might think to add more rules--but it is not biblically advisable. That is what Israel did and got it trouble for it, for looking to the letter of the Law rather than the spirit, and for...

Both are fine translations, regardless of the comma placement. The issue, and the problem, however, is not to be solved or fully understood merely by the rule of times according to the ways of this world as they are defined. The matter transcends time. This equation has two different sides...

It saddens me to read this because 1) it puts a governor on the scriptures that is not God alone but the ways, logic, and reasoning of men, and 2) it hinders the Spirit (which you didn't mention). But yes--and I wanted so to say Hallelujah to your first three paragraphs--because that much is...

Yeah, that was not really the point, but thank you, it's good to consider other translations. But your timing would appear to be only future as in a one-time mass event. Yet that doesn't work with all scripture, it doesn't reconcile. Not with "this generation"--or "that generation" if you...

For like treatment, Jesus said even to Peter "Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.”
