    Revelation 11-the measure of the temple

    @Heart2Soul Would you mind revealing how you study the book of Revelation? 1.) Do you already have a dispensational or amillennial view and come at it with one of those? 2.) Do you use commentaries and if so what are they? Don't misunderstand, I am not questioning your method. I am just...

    Psychological Questions about People in the Bible

    (2 Samuel 12:5-9) describe adultery and murder. Scripture is clear. David was guilty of the sin of adultery and murder. No, David said 'Against thee, thee only, have I sinned....'. And what were the sins? Adultery with Bathsheba and murder against Uriah. Stranger

    Psychological Questions about People in the Bible

    Of course I don't believe it. It is not Scriptural. Again, no matter what sin you do, whether it is against another person, or directly against God, it is sin against God. All sin is against God. Which is why David said, "Against thee, thee only, have I sinned....." Stranger

    Psychological Questions about People in the Bible

    It is not unexplained. All sin is against God, and God alone. That doesn't mean David was not guilty of adultery and murder. As I said, Scripture is clear. (2 Sam. 12:5-9). You can dream up all you want about Bathsheba being the 'ex-wife'. Just so much BS. Scripture is clear, and...

    The treason of fraternizing with Christians; A History Lesson...

    @shnarkle I guess we would have to view this as killed by friendly fire, even though by the national enemy. War is so terrible to place Christians in a position where they must kill each other. But....unavoidable. Stranger

    Are Christians now going to be seen as threats to the nation?

    Yes, Christians will be seen as a threat to the nation. Slowly we are being set up. satan has had a lot of practice in turning the political authority against Christians. Because everyone is allowing for a distinction between islam and radical islam, then it is a small step to recognize a...

    Fundamentalism; belief in scripture, becoming illegal

    Did you ever think that you and people like you are the problem? It is only a matter of time because you bring with you your anti-Christian beliefs. Those same beliefs that resulted in defecating in public. How stupid people are. I see it all the time. yankees and californians move to the...

    Do Hymns have any revelancy?

    It is never the question of the instrument used. It is a question of the music. God has music that is worshipful to Him. satan has music that is worshipful to him. What is the source of the music is the question. Stranger

    When God lets you down

    I know of none concerning Watchman Nee. There were some concerning his brother Witness Lee. I would recommend Watchman Nee's books to anyone. Mysticism in Christianity is hard to define. And I think it is a title that should have never existed. Because all Christians are mystics. We are...

    Should the books of the bible been more like 77?

    It doesn't matter if it was on 6 lists. Anyone can make a list. The first New Testament canon known was a false canon by Marcion in 140 A.D. When you say, 'I love it, and it ministers to me', you set yourself up as the one who determines whether or not a book should be included into the...

    Should the books of the bible been more like 77?

    You haven't answered any of mine. Nor will you. I have studied the making of the Canon of Scripture quite a bit. You will find there is no hard and fast rule upon including a book into the Canon. Authorship can be important, but then at times it doesn't matter. Apostleship can be...

    Should the books of the bible been more like 77?

    Give me their methods of determining a book. How is that a book without an author such as Hebrews can make it's way into the Canon. Why do you accept any of the books in the Bible? How do you know they are inspired works? Couldn't they have made a mistake? You say they have left some...

    When God lets you down

    You're quite welcome. Indeed she was. I had the book also, and like you, due to so many moves, I have lost it, or gave it away. If I remember right she was quite an influence on Watchman Nee...I think. And I remember you knew of him also. That circle of mystic Christians certainly made...

    Should the books of the bible been more like 77?

    How do you know how much John wrote? Or Luke? Or Peter? Or Paul? Or any other writer in Scripture? Being an apostle did not guarantee a writing was inspired by God. Luke was no apostle. And though tradition gives the Gospel's the name of the writer, there is no proof that Matthew...
