    Q for JW- KIEW?

    KJV Genesis 1:26 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

    Q for JW- KIEW?

    No, it is not. Our bringing forth offspring, is a process by which we pass on our DNA, our very being, an image of ourselves and one like us of the same species, for like begets like. Creation is the making of something different to oneself, out of nothing. Jesus was not created. He came forth...

    Q for JW- KIEW?

    Interesting answer. I do notice though you still haven't actually addressed the texts I gave. I agree though that Jesus is God's Son. I am a man. I have 3 sons. Guess what. They are also men. What do you suppose the Son of God would be other than what His Father is? What do you think express...

    2 Questions, posing intriguing answers... But not perhaps for this thread. Not trying to prove anything, just being a brakelite to make people pause and think.

    Euphrates drying up, what will happen? However the order of the bowl judgements seems not to fit in our understanding

    As you said. The river is symbolic. Babylon is symbolic. Whatt did the river mean to Babylon when the city was intact? It was a source of revenue and life. It was a vehicle by which Babylon traded. It was integral to the survival of the city. Now spiritual Babylon the Great will also need the...

    Who, or what, is the dreaded bogey man of prophecy?

    It is only preterist thought of theentire vision was assumed to be fulfilled in thefirst century. At no time did phoneman suggest such an idea. Please read carefully. Historicism clings to the belief that prophecy began to be fulfilled from the time the prophecy was given, except in cases where...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    And such was beautifully fulfilled when Israel rejected their Messiah and through their rejection prompted the gospel to be carried to the gentiles. KJV Acts 13:46-47 46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    You misunderstand the character of God. He is not an arbitrary tyrant causing people to be lost just to gratify His craving for glory. Those blinded are the victims of their own choices, and God, for whatever role He plays in their ignorance, knows their future and by His action would not alter...

    Q for JW- KIEW?

    That kind of response is evidence that you are refusing to actually read my posts. I wasn't discussing Psalm 110.1, although I of course have no argument with your reasoning. But Jesus's quote of palm 110 wasn't in the context of proving Himself as God or deity, but challenging the Pharisees on...

    Who, or what, is the dreaded bogey man of prophecy?

    I'm saying I agree with you regarding the global extent of Babylon, just as the false prophet leads a global movement into apostasy. But Babylon has a HQ. That's why I went a little into history. Yes, Babylon is a spiritual power, but it does have a human physical component, and it's head...

    Please pray for my safety

    We are all in a deep intense and very real spiritual warfare whereby if He had his way, Satan would destroy us all. Sometimes however, that warfare spills over into the physical world, and through fear and intimidation, Satan would seek to at least destroy our faith, where we grow discouraged...

    Who, or what, is the dreaded bogey man of prophecy?

    I agree. Akin to the mystery of iniquity, which began even before creation with Lucifer in heaven. Of course, it wasn't called Babylon then, but iniquity became institutionalized at Babel. Babylon was the outgrowth of that rebellious independent sell preservation prideful spirit of Babel. As a...

    Who, or what, is the dreaded bogey man of prophecy?

    Throughout history Satan has used agents through which he has deceived God's people. Even in the garden he used the serpent to deceive Eve. The entire end time scenario as we read of it in the prophets, is based on deception, mixed with physical persecution when at those times it is to his...

    Who, or what, is the dreaded bogey man of prophecy?

    Time to get serious with what many consider the very foundation of prophecy... Daniel 2. It seems many here have forgotten what it depicts. The prophecies of Daniel are incredibly revealing. They are intricately detailed, providing specific information and points of character and events...

    Q for JW- KIEW?

    KJV Philippians 2:9 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ...

    Q for JW- KIEW?

    That had nothing to do with the trinity. It is all about the identity of Jesus. I will add the following. The scriptures below, also from Isaiah 40, the same chapter that speaks of preparing the way of the Lord, says... KJV Isaiah 40:9-11 9 O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up into...

    Q for JW- KIEW?

    Again, you are arguing with Matthew and Mark, the inspired writers of the gospels under their name. They said that John the Baptist was the one who fulfilled his role as detailed in Isaiah...Preparing the way of הוָֹהיְ Yëhovah. It doesn't matter if the translators replaced the name centuries...

    Q for JW- KIEW?

    And you would argue with the writer of Hebrews who under the inspiration of the Spirit of God declared unequivocally that God was talking of His Son when He said, "thy throne o God... Etc".
