The Bible says to test the spirits. We do that by comparing and contrasting it against scripture. If it doesn't line up, then that's a big red flag.

I hope she has good security.

Replace everyone with AI and robots within the next 5 years? That seems overly ambitious and unrealistic. The infrastructure is not there, and neither is the technology yet. AI can do some amazing things, but not everything, and it still needs human supervision. At some future point? I don't...

No way they can achieve that by 2030.

How do you come to this conclusion?

I have a different perspective. I think there is quite a bit going on; our perception is just skewed because we usually only see and hear what the bad guys are doing. But there are good guys too, though they operate mostly in the background. The reality is, we are in a war. It's not a war fought...

How do you come to that conclusion?

You don't know how Trump operates. He's actually very good at getting people to do what he wants and making them think it was their idea. For years, Dems ignored Epstein and even buried it. But the moment Trump pretends not to care, then suddenly, they're very interested. It's reverse psychology...

Some others: Jesus claimed to be Lord and had authority over the Sabbath (Matt 12:8) Jesus was recognized as God by the demons (Mar 1:24) Jesus forgave sins, something only God can do (Luk 5:20-25)

The problem is, our whole economic system is debt-based. It doesn't help that we have fiat currency that is continually devaluing. Then there are all those other things you mentioned that are really just forms of socialism. I have grown to really dislike insurance. It sounds all good in theory...

That too was symbolic. Communion alludes to the passover. Both point to Christ. If your using a strict interpretation of communion, than that is the logical conclusion.

You're conflating two separate things, which have no bearing on each other. I get it; Catholics believe in transubstantiation, but such a strict literal interpretation would make it akin to cannibalism. We take it in "remembrance" of him, which implies a symbolic act. You can believe otherwise...

If Trump was truly a fascist, he would completely ignore the judicial branch and there would be nothing they could do about it, but he hasn't. The term "fascist" is thrown around so wanton that it no longer means anything.

No matter what is used, we're not actually eating his flesh and drinking his blood. The symbolic act is what's important. It's the same with using Jesus' name. That wasn't his Hebrew name, but people have gotten saved by that name and variations of his name in other languages. God knows our intent.

I don't know; the pre-Christian world was a much harsher place. There wasn't much in the way of compassion or charity. Life was brutal with the constant expectancy that someone could come along, kill you, and take your stuff. Of course, bad stuff still happens in this fallen world, but the...

In another thread, I proposed the idea that everything in heaven is made up of light—the people, the grass, the buildings, everything. At its core, light is basically energy in motion. In our physical world, light acts as a wave. But at the quantum level, light can also act as a particle...

I can agree with that. We were created in paradise (Eden); that is our natural habitat. Living in our current fallen state is the cause of all fears, anxieties, stress, and general uneasiness. There's a longing in each and every one of us for something more. Humanity has tried to get back to...

Sure, but I was referring to the timing of the rapture, and Paul didn't make it into a doctrine. All modern rapture positions are based upon specific timings of when it will occur.

Okay.

What does that mean?
