    Okay Martha Mark.

    If you don't see R speaking the words of Martha, caring about many things and defending those things against the idea of One thing being important...

    Preachers of the Lesser Riddle

    Surely it is practical for all to believe at the level they understand. But is it not also practical, that "We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive Our witness?" And after not receiving, some should by all means oppose what they reject? As for Jesus returning...

    Yes, really. Which I see as the crux of the problem that I should address first even before reading the rest of your post. Yes, he was "offended", evidenced by his being defensive. He said yes we should seek God first and foremost, but then went on to defend those who's actions don't, who...

    Unbelievable

    Some kind of "Scientist" he is...he didn't factor in the possibility of both enemies foreign and domestic! That would be like not factoring in returning home from a space mission.

    You're offended. That too is biblical. But you are defending that which is worldly and those who do the same. Meanwhile, no, Jesus is not returning physically any more than the temple should be thought of as being built of stone again.

    It is worldly to go on and on about the objects of bread and figs and temples, when the subject is Christ. Object vs. Subject. Simple enough. And you can spot them even here on Christianity Board. Look for them. Understand just where they're coming from--understand that they themselves don't...

    PASTORS: Worship Music...Oh PLEASE!

    Yeah, the problem is not music at all, it's worship that has become more entertainment than worship and is no real substitute. On the other hand entertainment in and of itself is just like another tree in the garden, some having good fruit and some not so good. I love music, and Christians...

    I need advice, baptism

    Welcome Barn'! Your baptism--and literally everyone's baptism--was never really in the hands of mere men, but God alone. God uses all sorts of characters to bring things biblical to fruition, from a donkey to many kings, from pagans and evil kings and scoundrels to a women most favored, or a...

    PASTORS: Worship Music...Oh PLEASE!

    Indeed, the church has and is missing a great evangelizing opportunity in secular music. There is actually quite a bit that is unto the Lord. A lot of love songs are really to God, and the "baby baby" and "oh darlings" are just substitute. In some songs there is actually a "God" verse that give...

    PASTORS: Worship Music...Oh PLEASE!

    Sure...but a show is a show, and worship is worship. A show is for people--and that's great--but worship is unto God, and that is a whole different act.

    Discerning False Teachers

    I am well. Thank you. Bless you in your studies! pryw

    Ark/bees

    No...but many have misdefined which is greater, the flesh or the Spirit when it comes to Jesus/God. These are the times of which He promised greater works. And which is greater, Jesus returning in the flesh or in the spiritual glory of the Father? And that is what He outlined, saying, "Behold, I...

    Ark/bees

    Which is greater, the flesh or the Spirit? Why do you wait for He who has already come into you?

    Discerning False Teachers

    Because of "false teachers" (2 Peter 2:1) spreading "destructive doctrines" among the Church, the greater meaning of 1 John 4:3 has been almost completely obscured. A test of this...is easy, ask yourself: Has Jesus come in your own flesh? And if He has, did it occur after He first went to the...

    Ark/bees

    I tell you--if Jesus went to the Father, and afterward knocked on the door and you opened to Him and He came into you--He returned to you that very hour. Sit in the corner if you will, but let your witness be that He has come again in you--in the flesh!

    Ark/bees

    The door was opened when Jesus died on the cross...and chaos did enter the ark of Christ, the spirit of God began to be poured out upon all flesh, all, both good and evil. Then came the "false teachers" within the Church foretold by Peter, and the believing of a "lie" and "strong delusion"...

    Actually Jesus returns twice...

    So shall it be bound, so shall it be written.

    Revelation chapter 11 questions

    Sorry I had some typos in my last post (I corrected them)-- But again--so it would seem from a worldly perspective, but that is not the reality of God. We are talking about acts of God...and He "is the same yesterday, today, and forever." Meaning, no, but everything that Jesus accomplished, He...
