    Smoke Screens?

    There is not a lot of new information that I would bring to the table that makes it a thread I would want to publish...and also not a hill that I would die on doctrinally (i.e. I consider it to be a peripheral issue). But I have presented my case in post #298 (Smoke Screens?) above. Since I...

    Smoke Screens?

    I already told you...Satan entered into Judas Iscariot in order to accomplish the final betrayal of Jesus. Satan was directly responsible, therefore, for the crucifixion of the Son. I suppose it brings up issues of predestination, whether it be according to foreknowledge or whether everything...

    an open letter to bbyrd009

    Truth is important; and coming to the knowledge of the truth is for us the heart of the Father. He wants us all to speak the same thing (1 Corinthians 1:10, Philippians 2:2-3): but for that to happen we must all believe the same thing. For that to happen we need to have the opportunity to hash...

    Rom 10:14, How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? Rom 10:15, And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them...

    He gained nothing like he thought he would. He did not expect Jesus to rise from the dead.

    The Mark of the Beast is Paper Money and Fiat Currency

    It is what I consider to be a peripheral issue; but personally I believe that there may be some reality to certain myths and legends such as the legend of Hercules, because of the fact that a certain interpretation of Genesis 6 is valid. Angels do not marry or are given in marriage because they...

    The Mysteries that Paul taught:

    Blameless means without blame. This would indicate a holy walk to some extent. In Ephesians 1:4 indicates we can be holy and without blame before the Lord. In Hebrews 4:13 it becomes clear that nothing is hidden from the Lord's sight. Jesus said to make the inside of the cup and platter...

    Satan entered into Judas Iscariot to accomplish Jesus' final betrayal. Of course it could not have been accomplished if it were not in the perfect will of the Father. But it wasn't the Father who killed Jesus...it was most certainly the devil who sought His death 2,000 years ago.

    It is good teaching only if you can live up to it in your own life. Otherwise, it is just words, words of a hypocrite in fact, who touts personal holiness but does not live up to the standard that he preaches. Someone that drops into my church from time to time and puts on a show of being holy...

    The Identity of the 144,000 in the Book of Revelation

    You ignorant and stubborn, evil people... Matthew 7:1-6.

    It was foreknown and foreordained from before the beginning of time; but surely Jesus died because the devil murdered Him.

    The Mark of the Beast is Paper Money and Fiat Currency

    The primary seed that is being planted will turn out to be a weed; and will choke out anything good you might be trying to plant. I suggest you plant your seeds away from other people's weeds.

    Not to mention all those who will be saved during the church age.

    The Identity of the 144,000 in the Book of Revelation

    There is also a multitude that no one can number, all dressed in white, who will come out of great tribulation and will be allowed into the kingdom.

    The Resurrections, plural

    There is a resurrection unto life and a resurrection unto damnation. A resurrection unto glory and a resurrection unto shame and everlasting contempt. These will be 1,000 years apart according to the book of Revelation. You want to be raised in the first resurrection; wherein you will rule...

    The Mark of the Beast is Paper Money and Fiat Currency

    It's time to stop responding to this thread so that it will trickle down to the bottom, far away from anyone's sight. Because the premise of the OP is faulty; and may even cause someone to go insane if they believe in it. It is better to just let the subject go.

    Smoke Screens?

    You can judge the doctrine, however, by the fruit that is borne by those who carry it. Therefore, finding out the realities through conversations on the internet can be useful; because those who carry the truth will not bear briers and/or thorns. So you can judge the doctrine being preached by...

    NO Dual Gospel

    No, I was not saying that per se. I was pointing out that that could be a misintepretation that might develop if we're not careful. But, concerning the whole of your post (#21 (NO Dual Gospel)), good answer.

    Smoke Screens?

    You have not brought your scriptures into balance with the scriptures that I have presented; in fact I think that you are ignoring them in your own theology. I suggest you take more time to study.
