Reevaluation consists of considering who/ what one is witnessing to/ of. Your witness is to/ of yourself. Is this what the Prophets did? Was this the message and witness of Jesus?

Salvation is a gift given to the ignorant and undeserving. It is good news which they do not yet know. It is our privilege to share this news/ message with any who will hear. Unfortunately most are either not interested, not impressed, argue against it or give you a hard time in some fashion...

Law holds up a just and right standard....and it condemns Sin. It is Sin which is the problem, not Law.....and as Paul says, the Law is just and right and good. (Romans 7:12) It is the devil and wicked men who want to blame the Law....because their deeds are evil.

or one could say the presenting of the Son to the Father was his inauguration after his stint on Earth. After the inhabitants of God's Multiverse witnessed for themselves the heretofore unrevealed heart of God.....and thus nullifying all of Lucifer's misrepresentations......and what were those...

Love has a far higher bar than Law. Love does not annul Law, it amplifies it. Here are some examples; 1. The speed limit around a school zone here in Oz is 40 klm. The law for it is so children wont get hit by speeding cars. Just because the Law says you must drive slower doesn't mean you...

I am persuaded that whenever men attempt a search for truth, the disruptive influence of the evil supernatural is present....be it a distraction or a lulling to sleep.

The writings of Revelation are far more than a time line. They are as the outset of the book says, a revelation (a revealing) of Jesus Christ. Rev.1:1 (herein is The Key) .....now that you know what/ who it is, do you know how to use it.....how it applies?

I think Jesus' explanations in using past events is to illustrate the unexpectedness of what will unfold for those who do not take his return seriously or are flippant about the instructions to 'stay awake' One of the dangers in interpretation is to make what is intended as a generality, walk...

The issue in the present and coming global deception in my view has to do with the Character of God. Let me explain. It was the maligning of God's Character by Lucifer that enabled him to draw many many angles to his point of view. This exercise by Lucifer was of a nature so persuasive it...

The quoted verse appears to me as Daniel seeing a seperate event to the second coming.....and perhaps I was a bit hasty in agreeing it was a description of the second coming. All that said, the language is similar to what the angels told the disciples at Jesus ascension ie, that Jesus would...

Affirming that it is ones conclusion on a matter does not disqualify that person, in fact it gives them a certain credibility because in the statement is a tacit admittance there could be another valid way of seeing. 'Thinking' says Henry Ford, is a most difficult thing, thats why so few people...
