If God was dictating the words as you seem to be suggesting, then please explain the very different styles of literary expression between the various writers, such as Paul and John. Or Peter and Matthew. Perhaps you could explain why Paul actually dictated the words in several of his...

The state of the dead is one of the most misunderstood teachings of the Bible and that misunderstanding formed the basis for every pagan belief system on the planet. "Thou shalt not surely die". The Sabbath, which I have mentioned on any of these threads to date, is equally misunderstood...

That entire narrative declares categorically that there is no such thing as an immortal sinner. It's impossible. Even the righteous only receive it as a gift. Sinners living forever in hell? Despite presumed conditions that would normally kill them, therefore it must be God Who is...

My suspicions of the NIV are now confirmed. Nonsense. You have absolutely no evidence to suggest such a thing. God, the life-giver, created creatures to die? A system of creation that relies on death in order to survive? Your church's divine plan of evolution and death is no less satanic than...

Indeed. Which means their very lives were contingent on their eating of the tree of life. Whatever their life was, it was conditional. So is ours. We are wholly dependant upon Jesus for life. We are not naturally immortal. Immortality is not innate to our existence. One day when Jesus...

You have evidence for that of course right?

Why not simply accept what scripture declares? Sleep. No where does scripture suggest that the death of sleep is akin to non existence. Lazarus was dead/asleep, according to Jesus. He certainly wasn't in a state of non existence. His family remembered him. As did his many friends, the...

If we are to believe scripture, then there was no death at the time Adam named the animals. That naming took place before the fall, even before the creation of Eve...before death entered into man's existence as a result of sin. But I realise you have difficulty in accepting the plain teaching...

I think you misunderstood him. He is saying that many Christians claim the law is no longer relevant, and nailed to the cross. This is not his view, but the view of many. He is saying that if such was true, then we can do as we please without sin, because without the law there is no...

You all may have noticed that no-one lived for over a 1000 years. Methuselah got close, but didn't hit the jackpot. Nor did he contradict God's promise, that Adam and Eve would die in "that same day", as did all their descendants. “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one...

Not necessarily false. The Bible is infallible in one sense... principle and morality. Those who wrote the various books were God's penmen, not God's pen. God did not dictate every word. He gave visions, thoughts, inspiration, and the various authors wrote those thoughts down, described...

Example. “And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way. ” Matthew 8:28 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/Matthew.8.28 “1 And they came over...

Two opposing views cannot both be biblical.

As for Acts 10, wonderful story. I was reminded of that other centurion, a story a good partaker to this, who after abusing, insulting, and physically assaulting Jesus for many hours, and then helped kill Him, had his eyes opened even after Christ's death, confessing that Jesus was indeed...

Amen. Wherever we are, and whoever we are with, the focus of our message must always be Jesus and Him crucified, salted however in the context of the last days. Or church as you may be aware has as a "mission statement" Revelation 14: 6-12. Those 3 angels messages give the gospel context...

I think we need to consider a few things here. Nebuchadnezzar and Cyrus, who both in their day would have been described as evil, were also described as God's servants. Also, Jereboam, one of the many evil kings of Israel, as a direct result of Jonah's prophetic assurance of success...

Exactly. So in the context of today's spiritual milieu, and much of the Christian world now forming into a similar counterfeit church in the form of a politically engineered union of church and state, there are several deeply important prophetic implications tied in with current developments...

I agree with your sentiment in principle, except that the description of 'evil' applied to us all at some time, and I wouldn't be here but for a believer talking to this evil person. But, yes. God calls us to separate from the majority... from the world... and not to be united with those...

My answer is, 'it depends'. If the church is left free to deliver the gospel, it shouldn't matter who the governing power is. In America, a republican style government system was designed to protect the liberties of religious minorities. Recent history has seen the left extreme fighting...
