Are questions evidence of unbelief? I don't really think so. Or rather unbelief reveals itself in the assumptions behind our questions. There are plenty of legitimate questions we can have about doctrines, and yet we believe in the truthfulness of his word. There is a lot of arrogance in...

I'm a bit late to the party, so did God need to purchase the human race from Satan? Looking back at Genesis mankind was given authority to rule over the earth and the creatures therein. Then along comes Satan, and Adam and Eve listened to him leading to sin entering the world. If we apply the...

Isaiah 6:10 "Make the heart of this people dull,and their ears heavy,and blind their eyes;lest they see with their eyes,and hear with their ears,and understand with their hearts,and turn and be healed." Romans 11:25 "I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so...

Rather if anyone is saved it is through Jesus. Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”

I would say it is because the politicians don't care about either. Their politics are all about 'virtue signaling.' Helping US citizens doesn't appeal to the woke mob.

Sounds like multiple felonies were committed. Medicaid fraud, lying on a gov form, aiding and abetting. If it is wide spread, could be RICO laws.

Pope Leo continues down the predicted path.

True, and when the people are so weak and unprincipled as to allow anything to be done to them we get the leaders we deserve.

Thank you for bringing this together @kdx. And I'm impressed not once did you need to refer to the book of Enoch. What does death mean when referring to Rephaim? Those giants who died but their nature didn't let them rest. They seek rest but do not find it, wandering in dry places. Would you...

Typical tactic of the devil to propose a solution to a problem he caused. And that solution turns out to be far worse than the problem itself.

I believe evil spirits are at work, stirring up hatred against the Jews. Meanwhile Islam gets the white glove treatment. The people of the world do the will of their father, the devil. They eagerly obey the evil spirits he sends to accomplish his will.

Must those on the divine council be gods themselves? Why not close confidants of God? I think Jesus spoke of this divine council in Matthew 20:23. We have a concept called the Godhead, which is plural. If Elohim shares the same meaning, very well.

The pagan gods are actually demons. 1 Corinthians 10:20 Deuteronomy 32:17 Demons are enemies to God. By worshipping demons people entrap themselves under their authority. Demons are subservient to Satan, and their ultimate goal is to usurp God on the earth. And in doing so they lead people...

Evil does not triumph. In due time everything will be made right... By God. In the meantime we retain the power to resist conforming, if even at the cost of more oppression and death. The souls of the martyrs call out for justice, and God will answer. Recommended reading Psalm 37, Rev 6:9-11

The carnally minded only obey when there is fear of immediate repercussions. This is why cults are so authoritarian. Should Christians use the tactics of the enemy to coerce obedience to God in the hope of improving society? No. We are not here on the earth to live in an illusion of peace and...

Geofencing seems like a massive invasion of privacy no matter who is doing it.

And here I thought this was a discussion forum. We also have a blog section that doesn't involve discussion.

Why we sleep seems poorly understood, We sleep to feel refreshed, and if we don't sleep we eventually die. It reportedly eliminates toxins, and refreshes glycogen. It is important for memory consolidation. This article points to all living things needing sleep. Not just creatures with brains...

Governing powers are also appointed to punish wrongdoing. This is a third party, not the victim, and not God. They should judge in accordance with the law. A desire for mercy from a victim should not absolve criminals for breaking the law.

The whole point was to encourage forgiveness in his followers. God hates Hypocrisy, If we are going to be forgiven for our many sins how can we withhold our forgiveness of others? God has told us that vengeance belongs to him. We should not take it for ourselves. What business is God's...
