Sorry, can't do that. We can't find any Scripture directly relating to many social issues today that our general beliefs would have us holding certain opinions about. I am one of those guys who doesn't believe Jesus came to simply bring us a new, different and revised set of specific rules to...

Nor have I. So an "opinion" from me on that topic would be of no value.

Well, I don't exactly agree with that statement. Not the way you and so many people are using it, anyway. I think those words were originally written to tell us no "Prophet" ever came up with what he prophesized, on his own, out of thin air, or through his own understanding. I do happen to...

Have you researched every other mention of "wife", "bride", "child", "children", or any other derivatives of those words, to see how they relate to one another, and to your question?

One thing I have learned about the "symbolization" in Revelation is that the old adage holds true that we need to let Scripture interpret Scripture. I doubt there is any symbolization in that BOOK that is not explained by Scripture. If not within R, then, elsewhere in the Bible, usually, but...

H2S, You have a PM.

PO??? Why we were so poor — I was raised as a poor Mexican boy — we couldn't afford a hacienda…… we lived in a "half-hacienda."

A suggestion? Begin doing some serious reading by authors who hold an opposite view from yours, and see why they feel that way. All we get from reading people who think like we do is just another pat on the back from other members of the mutual admiration society.

No, that is not my purpose in life. You must believe as you will.

I'm not going to be trying to "correct" anyone. I have studied Revelation since before you were born, H2S, and I still am not as positive about my views as most of the people here seem to KNOW they are. The difference may be that I have not limited my studying to only those who felt the same...

I wish people wouldn't go making predictions like that. You are going to be SO embarrassed in several years.

You can choose to blame God, but the answer to your question — from the Bible — is "No." And I think you already know that.

Someone is going to (or SHOULD) feel very stupid in the year 2027.

I know that isn't so. You are too honest to play his kind of game. Even right here you are stating that you are a Christian, specifically, and only, as you understand that to be, not as the joke that name has devolved into.

No problem. I'm just trying to make sure I understand whence you get your information.

An honest man would stand up and explain what he believes, not try to dodge and dance around what someone else might or might not believe.

Now, maybe he didn't say this (I dunno, for sure): In a 2017 interview, Peterson was asked if he was a Christian; he responded, "I suppose the most straight-forward answer to that is yes". When asked if he believes in God, Peterson responded: "I think the proper response to that is No, but I'm...

A fairly important point you seem to have overlooked is that priests boast of the ability to declare "absolution" for that confession..... Psychologists (I worked for one for more than two decades) do not.

The same Dr. Peterson who plainly says he doesn't believe in God?

Are you guys talking about, Dr. Peterson, the Canadian Clinical Psychologist?
