    The Administration Of Tongues

    No, it's not my assertion. However, you didn't answer my question. When Paul calls the Corinthians carnal would apply that to all Christians? What about when he says they are not all spiritual, does that apply to all Christians?

    Yeah, he's addressing the Corinthians.

    The Administration Of Tongues

    Since we're talking about context let's note that the "we" is Paul and the Corinthians, not you and I. His statement about seeing face to face says nothing about seeing Jesus. He contrasts two things, the present where he sees things through a class darkly (In other words things aren't clear)...

    The Administration Of Tongues

    That mandate would be appropriate when the gift was active as it was in Paul's day. However, Paul said tongues would cease so after that point the mandate would no longer stand.

    The Administration Of Tongues

    Not at all. He was speaking to the Corinthians. He said, "I want you all."

    The Administration Of Tongues

    In context Paul is rebuking the Corinthian church for their use of tongues. Their self edification is being rebuked. KJV 1 Cor. 4:6 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that...

    The Administration Of Tongues

    Hi Willemac, If there were millions of people who made a claim and the Bible claimed the opposite which one would you believe? I am well acquainted with the mind of man. It is my understanding of the Scriptures that the miraculous gifts given in the beginning have ended. Paul said the gift of...

    The Administration Of Tongues

    It's my understanding that the gift of tongues has ceased.

    God's 7,000 Year Plan

    I think it does. The early Christians taught it, Paul speaks of it in Hebrews and we see allusions to is in certain passages of Scripture.

    Who's the Lord being referred to as David's Lord in Psalm 110?

    The Father is also called Yahovah. 24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; (Gen. 19:24 KJV) In this passage we have Jehovah on earth calling down fire from Jehovah in heaven.

    God's 7,000 Year Plan

    I'm not real familiar with the blood moons but it does seem like it could be. I think the times of the Gentiles can also be figured another way. Hosea prophesied that Israel would be cast off for two days. KJV Hosea 6:1 Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal...

    God's 7,000 Year Plan

    I don't think it can be that soon because the times of the Gentiles or Israel's having been cast off has to be completed. They were cast off in 70 AD. when their temple was destroyed. In Leviticus 26 God tells Israel that if they keep His law He will be with them, but if they don't He will...

    God's 7,000 Year Plan

    I suspect were around 5,779. But, remember the some of the date in history could be off so the year could be off.

    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    I think the Tribulation will begin within 20 years

    God's 7,000 Year Plan

    Yes, it appears we are very close to the close of the six thousandth year.

    The mind can do strange things. If you take notice though, it seems they always see what the believe.

    12 reasons why hell is not eternal conscious torment

    That's not what the Scriptures teach. The Son was begotten before time. In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God. 5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: (Heb 10:5 KJV) When He cometh into...

    12 reasons why hell is not eternal conscious torment

    Why do you emphasizing the distinction when I agree with you. 'To us there is one God the Father and one Lord Jesus Christ. I do believe Hebrews 10:5. the word begotten of the Father, became man. However, that doesn't mean He is didn't come from the Father. Did God beget a Son from Himself?

    12 reasons why hell is not eternal conscious torment

    I agree, I don't think you are understanding me. I am one person, I am human. If I have son he too is human. He is a separate entity, but still human. God is, for lack of a better phrase, God substance. If God has a Son His Son is also God substance. If the Holy Spirit proceeds from God, He too...
