This one point I leave open... God knows.

Praying for Angel.

Age is telling on me these days. My wife has some health issues but she remains more active than me. I have no major complaints. We live with our daughter and she looks after us. I look into this forum regularly although I post very little anymore. Hopefully you and yours are doing well.

Even so...

May we assume that if they had not eaten of the forbidden fruit, they would have lived on to that 1000 year mark or and then eating of the Tree of Life...they would simply have lived on...?

Give God the glory!

Indeed, at 6, I was baptized and for the first time in my memory I knew God. At the age of 10 I had another experience with God although I did not yet own... nor had I ever read, a Bible. I started reading the Bible when I was 32 years old. I read it daily now and would never give it up...

Joh 6:66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. Joh 6:67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? If the very closest of Jesus' followers had also gone away, would not He have then stood alone? Rather than compromising would it not be...

Joh 17:11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

I was six years old when I met God for the first time... At the time I certainly knew nothing about the Bible.

Inserting here an old post of mine on this subject: Could it be this is where @bbyrd009 [alas this blessing man in no longer among us] got the idea of 969 being involved? "And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died." Gen 5:27 The oldest man listed in...

1co 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 1co 1:19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 1co 1:20 Where is the wise? where is...

Sorry if someone else has already responded to this question. I only skimmed through most of this thread. Way too much for me to read, much less to absorb. Your question caught my eye... Consider the tabernacle in the wilderness with the outer court into which any natural and sinful Israelite...

I also am praying for @Jabre
