    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    Clearly, you can't answer the questions yourself. Moving on. Good night.

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    No, I did not invite a discussion on the seven churches. I referenced the seven lampstands as an example of spiritual discernment, not as the subject of this thread. There is a significant difference between mentioning something and opening an entirely new discussion about it. The topic of...

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    You keep talking about "spiritual discernment," but you haven't demonstrated any from the text itself. So let's see how YOU interpret what the Lord actually said in Revelation 3. What does "cold" represent? What does "hot" represent? What is the "lukewarm" condition that causes Christ to spew...

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    Huh? This is off-topic and not a response to my OP. The discussion here is about spiritual discernment with Satan, the temptation of Christ in the wilderness, and the meaning of the stones-to-bread temptation as an example. Your post about “seven congregations,” church history timelines, and...

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    There you go again—attacking me instead of answering the Scriptures. Typical of those who cannot gainsay or resist. I never claimed to be "the embodiment of truth." Christ is the Truth, and His Word is truth (John 14:6; John 17:17). There is a world of difference. Nor do I derive my doctrine...

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    No, there isn't—and, guess what, I don't need one. I don't look for websites, denominations, churches, or theological systems to validate what I believe. My authority is the Word of God, not the opinions of men. If my conclusions stand, they stand because they are drawn from Scripture—not...

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    Whether any denomination agrees with me is completely irrelevant. Truth is not established by a church's popularity or denominational approval. The question is not, "Who else believes this?" but, "What do the Scriptures actually teach?" Selah! I don't derive my doctrine from a denomination...

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    You still don't get it, which is not surprising, since you have the same blindness as the Jews. Figures!

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    :rolleyes: Say the natural man. Again, say the natural man. Yes. Hello? You just proved my point. You insist the temptation has "nothing to do with who Satan is," yet the entire account is about revealing the nature of temptation and the adversary. You have separated the temptation from...

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    Your comment only demonstrates that you have already assumed your conclusion instead of examining the Scriptures. The issue is not whether you can repeat traditional doctrine, but whether you understand what the Scriptures actually reveal about the spirit of Satan. Your lack of spiritual...

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    Ever wondered about whether there is some spiritual correlation to Satan Tempting Christ in the wilderness? I believe it's all spiritually discerned! It is something else that might be a little more obscure or mysterious, and it also correlates to Satan's Tempting Christ in the wilderness. It...

    A Biblical Lesson on Spiritual Discernment

    The way I have seen here lately, there's no point in posting the contradictions I see because they already have explanations for all of them, and they won't be persuaded. Why? Because they lack spiritual discernment! Sad, but that is "generally" true. What's that old expression? "When you're a...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    Here you go again...Of course you are in denial because you do not have spiritual discernment. Period. The assumption that “Judea” in Matthew 24 must only refer to a physical, geographic region is not actually proven by the text itself. Scripture often uses geographic and temple-related...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    What do you think the Lord talked about?

    Oh brother. Actually, you are confused. Honestly!

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    You blind Preterists have fundamentally misunderstood the Olivet Discourse. Christ was not merely speaking about "Judean Christians," ethnic Judea, or the destruction of an unholy physical temple in 70 A.D. His prophecy ultimately concerns His New Testament congregation at the end of the age...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    Actually His feet DID stand upon the mount of olives, and the mount DID cleave. The problem is, a lot of people don't accept that the Bible is a very Spiritual book that has to be understood Spiritually. Sadly, understanding Scripture "Spiritually" has become almost like a "dirty word" to them...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    I just explained the "City". I can see that you still don't get it and make false accusation that I haven't answer your question yet. Whatever. Have a good evening!

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    Actually it’s you two who are having discernment issue. Blind with carnal interpretation…just like the Jews in Christ’s day. BYE! tsml

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    No, your asked BECAUSE you didn’t read careful what I wrote OR you simple do not like what you read. You need to read my quote again and again and again regard the CITY: “Second, the parable of Matthew 22 says NOT ONE WORD about waiting until 70 A.D. to bring about the destruction of the...
