Yeah, and at this point, I don't care. Really though, I'm pretty sure you do, you're just being dismissive. And I don't care about that, either. Grace and peace to you, jaybird.

Because you seem to be confusing the two... using verbs like nouns and vice versa. It is what it is. I "ignored" nothing. But now if you want to talk about ignorance... and I don't mean that in a disparaging way, but that's what I pointed out. LOL! Goodness gracious. "Making sense" to...

Yes, the Greek word hairetikos is a noun, jaybird, as is heretic in English. The Greek word was used to describe someone who holds beliefs that deviate from established doctrines, particularly in a religious context (although it could be used in other contexts also). At any rate, this fits...

There's no chair in heaven. <smile> Like I have said, you misunderstand what "the throne of David" in Scripture is. You did, yes. <smile> And I told you what He was saying about the throne of David. Not at all. I did so, but you don't accept what I said, which... fair enough. Well...

The issue is not "physical characteristics" or lack thereof, it's really about ethnicity. And nothing God has ever done as really had anything to do, ultimately speaking, with ethnicity. Yes, everything was shown and taught and illustrated through lesser Israel, which consisted of mostly...

The real disagreement, Randy, is who God's Israel really is. And the answer is given to us by Paul ~ who was very, very Jewish ~ in Romans 2:28-29... "For no one is a Jew who is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical. But a Jew is one inwardly, and circumcision is a...

Excuse me... What? <smile> A heretic, Jaybird, is a person holding an opinion at odds with what is generally accepted ~ in this particular case regarding eschatological matters. And we could say the same about the different systematic views of Scripture, namely dispensationalism versus...

You're wrong about what David's throne ~ as it's spoken of in God's Word; yes, even by Jesus ~ is. But that's okay. <smile> Really, man, it's okay. Grace and peace to you, Davy.

The world. Jesus speaks of the ruler of this world being cast out in John 12. Satan is bound in the sense that he absolutely cannot prevent the spread of the Gospel to the Gentiles, all nations and people-groups beyond Israel. Every Gentile believer today (as well as for the last 2,000-plus...

Yes, but can something being burned up and dissolved mean something more... figurative... in the sense of absolute cleansing and refining/renewing... than merely taking that at, well, wooden face value? I say yes. They surely do. <smile> Yes, He will be coming in judgement. Grace and peace...

Christ Himself, in His return, is the consuming fire. Now, in His return, He's not going to look like this... <smile> But He will be coming in judgment, which the fire is symbolic of. The earth will not literally be burned up but refined by this fire, made new (not newly made) <smile>...

In your opinion, sure. And, my opinion is that you are wrong in your understanding of that passage. Fair enough. Grace and peace to you. Right; I'm not mocking anybody. Again, I'm only rejecting your perception and understanding of the Scripture passage(s) we were discussing, not you...

Right. We have His Word, which is all we need. Sure. All His promises have their yes and amen in Christ. Depending on how you mean that, I agree. But in the sense in which you seem to be saying that, not so much. If we are truly regenerate of heart and therefore in Christ, then none of us...

They just understand significant parts of God's Word wrongly. I'll just say this, that knowledge ~ not just knowledge and wisdom are both gifts of the Holy Spirit, which all believers have, but not in the same proportion. Paul is very clear on this in Romans 12... and 1 Corinthians 12 (vv...

Psalm 139, IR, is a psalm of David. David is talking... singing, actually... about himself in Psalm 139. Grace and peace to you.

Most of them are well-meaning Christians. They're not cult members. They're just wrong. But that doesn't make them less Christian than you or me or any other Christian. The great thing about the internet is, you can find anything on it. But the terrible thing about the internet is, you can...

No, but if I had, that would have been enough to expose it for what it was. Okay, well even so, that's not what I said. No, neither in the sense that it was "moved," nor in the sense in which you think of David's throne. <chuckles> Like I have said, Davy, your understanding of "sitting on...

Well yeah.... LOL! I agree... <chuckles> But He existed with the Father and the Spirit from all eternity. I mean I think you agree with that... Well, Luke 2 is a good place to find that out... <smile> Like all of us humans, God "knitted Him together in His mother's womb" (poetically...

Dispensationalists are not cultists, and dispensationalism is not a cult. It's an honest take on Scripture, it's just terribly wrong. They just understand much of Scripture very wrongly. 'Wrong' and 'dishonest' are two very different things. Grace and peace to you, Scott.

Wellllll.... <smile> I mean, oh yeah, they have "answers," buuuuuut... <smile> Grace and peace to you.
