"...and believe it solely based on what someone says, a dream I had, whatever. I want to know I believe based on God's Word alone... " Amen sister. And The Spirit of God brings us into all truth so, between the Word of God and His Holy Spirit which is inside all believers, the Holy Spirit IS...

"See what I mean?" No, not at all. I guess you are just too smart and crafty for lil ole me.

That is an awful lot to go through. I pray that Piper, and you and fam. will remember that peace that surpasses all understanding...and that God will ease the discomfort of this procedure for Piper and find favor with the surgeons by blessing their efforts. Amen ♥

Oh, should I have said "eschatology"? And, it by NO means consumes my time and study of all other scripture. Can you expound on your comment that people of all religions are "the locusts from the abyss"? I am referring to the locusts that will torment in Revelation 9:1-12"Revelation 9:1-12 -...

Ha! I just read this very same thing yesterday when I read Reggies post. I had to look him up because all I really knew of him was his love for animals. I learned lot's. He grew up in opulence, indulging in fine foods and, drink and partying. "Consequently, he abandoned his life of luxury...

Hello GISMYS, What makes you think that there are only those few thousand praying?? I know of many Churches, in my area, including my own, who indeed ARE praying. Not to mention all of the faithful that you have no idea how many there are, that are praying for this disaster. I have a brother...

"revelation knowledge!" New term to me but, it fits, lol.

This is why I consider myself as belonging to Church Without Religion...don't leave the forum Frank, I think we all feel like doing that at times, I know I have. I even tried...only lasted like, a couple hours :D. Then, I remembered that that were enough folks on here that I would just plain...

What a cool analogy with crashing waves being in distress and God calming the waters. Great to meditate on when anxious!

TYVM :) I really cannot take credit as I would be plagiarizing Gods Word.. :D:D

"...so, which one is the real 'me'?" The "tough, mouthy" one. :D:D

Can anybody here quote NT scripture on "tithing" in one single epistle? Other than referred to in Luke 11:42 and Matthew 23:23 , where Jesus is calling the Pharisees hypocrites as they were beating their chests and bragging on their tithing...and tithing was about dill, cumin spices and such...

Yes, that was also mentioned with the other places. Oh what we've done with this world God gave us to tend to. SMH.

Is not the Talmud written mostly by Rabbi's? It is different than the Torah I believe. I read an article about Talmudic Jews of today and, the impression I got was that the Talmudic Jews are considered by some as modern day Pharisees.
