Symbolically fish may have been clean while scaleless fish were unclean because of spiritual blindness such as the apostle Paul experienced when meeting Jesus on the road. Fish, when caught are de-scaled, symbolically showing enlightenment. A scaleless fish can not be de-scaled, so.they...

Yea, people use to use lead as a sweetener.

The greatest hindrance to being saved is lack of love for the truth. And this hindrance is not exclusive to Muslims, but can be found in all groups of people. And there is no argument that can change someone's mind about caring for the truth. Would you abandon the truth for your parents, your...

Some animals seem to have been declared unclean for symbolic reasons. In my opinion many others were unclean for heath reasons that the ancient Israelites would have been ignorant about. For example swine are filthy animals full of parasites. If you don't cook it properly it will make you...

What an oddly detailed discussion to have in a dream. But is it true? Are there any supporting scriptures? Or should we always expect demonic retaliation? I expect demonic attacks to come but that is why we carry the shield of faith.

Jesus being God is possible because of God's omnipresence. God is Spirit. A spirit is a completely different existence than man, not bound to a body. It is hard to relate because we perceive reality through our flesh. And we are told that the eyes of the Lord are everywhere. Jesus said he saw...

The spirits of man and the Spirit of God can be pleased, but not by the things pleasing to the flesh.

Wouldn't happen here, no way a nurse would take the risk. They could be sued and/or lose their job.

They give out needles to drug addicts because otherwise they will find and use old needles. The only way you would get an IV is if you go to the hospital and are in need of it in the professional opinion of a doctor. They will never just give you something when you ask.

Not sure about China, but in the US we aren't allowed to administer anything intravenously except from a registered nurse. And the only exceptions I am aware of are epinephrine automatic injectors for life threatening allergies. Also people may be trained to inject their own insulin for diabetes.

You would have to be confident in his ability to fill the role. Otherwise putting him in that position would be throwing him under the bus. Only then would considerations of who needs more hours, or taking on additional burdens yourself come into play. But suppose that was in their Job...

Then sometimes I think it necessary to teach the concept from Psalm 146:3, by not being overly accommodating. So that people will trust God rather than man. "3Do not put your trust in princes, in human beings, who cannot save. 4When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that...

It would be a different story if you knew Nigel needed the hours. The Puritan work ethic, is a biblical concept I believe to be summarized by Colossians 3:23-24 "23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will...

We have been in the last hour for two thousand years. I think the Father is keeping the details of the day and hour a secret for a good reason. Some will meet the Lord in the skies, but far more will pass before that day. For those who are dying the hour of judgement is always near, because...

I wouldn't give blanket agreement to "Observable facts and experiences are true, no matter what." Suppose someone were to focus on Jesus being born in Bethlehem based on Micah 5:2 and disregarded all other prophecies about his origins. Then they learned Jesus grew up in Egypt. They might then...

It could have easily been a disaster. Thank God for his mercy.

People before the time of Jesus Christ people had to follow the written law or their conscience in the absence of God's law. Yet those who were observant would come to know of their inadequacy despite attempts to live righteously. They recognized their sin and asked God for forgiveness, making...

While revelation is filled with things needing spiritual discernment, this verse about buying and selling is not one of them. The devil would gladly coerce people into taking the mark. If you believe stories of witnesses to black ops to retrieve the bodies of giants and other strange...

It is a tricky question because you can't buy or sell without the mark. The location of the mark on the body reminds me of Deuteronomy 6:8, which is a metaphor for how the commandments should be acted and meditated upon. So it must be more than metaphorical if others can tell rather you have it...

I don't believe Romans 11 contradicts this prophesy from Jesus, and I'm sure you have an explanation for how it doesn't as well. Some or even most Jews remained hardened against belief in Jesus. Culturally they were and still are stagnant. The believing Jews were far more flexible, going out...
