    Should Christianity be less political?

    Christians should not be "political" at all. Yes, it can be hard not to become political and involved in some manner. It is hard for me at times. Address this personal issue to Almighty God through prayer. Should we not put all of our faith in our Heavenly Father? Consider only a few...

    The seven days of creation

    The Bible does not specify the length of each of the creative periods-in a measurable way for human to understand. Yet, only six of them have ended. (Genesis 1:31) With respect tp the seventh day, God proceeded to rest This indicates that this "day" has continue. (Genesis 2:1-3) Thousands of...

    Impossible?

    Jesus certainly did not mean for us to be perfect in the absolute sense because it is impossible in this system. (Romans 5:12) He implied that imperfect people can be “perfect” in a relative sense. However, using Jesus and God Almighty as a standard, we can only strive to imitate them by...

    Numbers 23:19: Big Problem

    It seems to me that you are misunderstanding the verse. It is not sayoing that "God" is a man. It is saying/impling that "God" is not like a man for whom is a liar or lies. In other words, He is not a liar and is incapable of lying like human do.-Hebrews 6:18

    Genesis 1, a day, and Billions of years

    The account in Exodus is referring to "man's" sabboth or day of rest. God's day of rest is different. Have you read the account I noted is Hebrew? Do you have the same opinion of other's belief in God when their opinion/understandings are differnet than your? Your comment about believing in...

    Examples concerning Proverbs 24:27

    I believe that this counseling is directed toward men that contemplate becoming married or already are. According to Almighty God, there is material and spiritual responsibilities required of men that make such commitment. Do such men have a secure job and would it be sustainable to support a...

    Why doe the Beast hate the Great Whore?

    Revelation 17:9 explains who/what comprises the symbolic beast is partially described at Revelation 17:3. Revelation 17:15, 17, 18 explains why the “wild beast” began to “hate the harlot” is described at Revelation 17:6. The “woman” or “harlot” depicts/represents the world’s false religions.

    Why Did John Say He Did Not Know His Cousin, Jesus?

    According to Bible linage, Mary and Elizabeth were certainly related. However, according to The Interpreter’s Dictionary of the Bible, “the term is too broad to be of help in determining their precise relationship.” For example, compare Luke 1:36 and Collisions 4:10. The Greek word used in...

    1 Corinthians 8:6

    What Jehovah’s Witnesses, as well as other institutions may explain, I am not aware. However, I carefully read this scripture twice and see a difference. 1 Corinthians 8:6 (a) says: “…out of whom all things are….” 1 Corinthians 8:6 (b) says: “…through whom all things are….” This is similar...

    Mystery Solved?

    Cain and Abel married one of their sisters or nieces.-Genesis 3:20; 5:14. Compare Genesis 20:12. This arrangement was common until God gave to Moses specific laws regarding further unions of marriage.-Leviticus 18:9.

    Did Jesus Christ Lie?

    Jesus came to fulfill the Law and to make the teachings of the prophets come true. His coming was a guarantee that their prophecies-for example-concerning him and the restoration of paradise on earth would be fulfilled. Since he fulfilled the Law, it was no longer binding between the Jewish...

    Why The Wise Men?

    The “wise men” that you mention is not scriptural. They were astrologers or magi-either of which-under the Mosaic Law-the Israelites were not to consort with. Considering this, why would “divine” intervention lead them to Herod (Jerusalem) first and not to Jesus (Bethlehem). Actually, it...

    Jacob and Esau

    QUOTE="thelord's_pearl, post: 1023689, member: 10381"]I think it was these 2 characters I read in the bible in the past. Jacob got the birthright deceitfully and became great. but did he get any punishment for being deceitful though he became great? Thanks all Abraham was still living...

    When did Daniel 7:13-14 happen?

    The account-starting at-at Revelation 12:6 is referring to the birth of God's kingdom with Jesus at its king. At the time that John penned this book, it was a prophecy for the future-not at the time of his ascension. I believe that this fulfillment has been fulfilled in this modern time...
