Which is what Origen of the Christian school at Alexandria, Egypt got in trouble for, turning literal Bible events into allegories. The early Church fathers pointed to the source of that confusion with the 2nd century Gnostics, which were pagan mystics that crept in among the early Church, and...

That's just as bad an interpretation of "no more sea" than what Hiddenthings has been saying. The Ephesians 4 passage you TRY to quote from isn't even using... the idea of the sea: Eph 4:14 14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of...

Depends on what Bible Scripture you are referring to. In Rev.17:15 Jesus revealed that the "waters" the great whore sits upon represents peoples, multitudes, nations, and tongues. Thus that... example is EASY to know He was giving those "waters" as a metaphor. But the "waters" in Genesis 1, and...

You would do well to think about the baloney you have been saying then against that Rev.21 passage about no more sea, and stop trying to turn literal events in God's Word into some allegory meaning, like Origen of Alexandria did, which got him ex-communicated from the Church. Is that enough...

That's because God has put blindness over you, so that you do not have eyes to see, and ears to hear. What might be the cause of that, heeding men's doctrines instead of listening to God's in His Word maybe?

As long as you are still in the flesh you are subject to sin, even as a 'born again' Christian. If you pay attention to what Lord Jesus said in John 3 about being born again, you should realize being born again is of our 'spirit' by The Spirit, and not our flesh. Our flesh is still subject to...

One must study all... the Bible to even begin to understand how Apostle Paul meant the idea of being 'predestinated' per Romans 8. And the idea of predestination IS WRITTEN in God's Word. So anyone saying it is not an idea that is written are simply being hard-headed against God's written Word...

New Jerusalem is the actual Bride of Christ, as Revelation 21 does reveal. Just because there exists New Testament language that 'uses' the concept of marriage, betrothal, etc., still does not supplant the Church as being that Bride of Rev.21. Per Matthew 9, we, Christ's Church, represent the...

You are so... FUNNY, you strain at a gnat just like the Pharisees at Christ's 1st coming did.

I'll show you where it is written in God's Word, that's easy... Rev 13:1 13 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. KJV Rev 13:4-9 4 And they...

Hey, you are going out on a Biblical illiterate limb by trying to use the above idea in conjunction with the no more sea idea. One is literal, the other one ain't. Of course there are allegories, parables, idioms and expressions also written in God's Word. But it is utterly stupid to try and...

Did I ever say that Jesus abolished HIS commandments? Are you hearing 'voices' or something? But IF... you are trying to say Jesus did NOT abolish the handwriting of ordinances in God's law, then that makes you a LIAR, because that FACT is written right there in the Colossians 2 Scripture I...

Nope, No Joke. It is written. Have you never read Genesis 1:6-10 when God formed today's sky atmosphere around the earth by moving 'some' of the waters overspread upon the earth up into the sky, leaving the rest of the waters on earth that formed today's seas? At Genesis 1:2 there were waters...

In the Greek it is SABBATON (NT:4521, from OT:7676). Look it up. I'm not going to do your homework for you.

Who says that I am not... following His commandments? You, just because YOU THINK you are perfect and without sin?? No, your speech is as a hypocrite.

No, Peter was only 1st in being given the example that Salvation would go also to the Gentiles. You need to keep reading your Bible, because of the following which shows Peter's commission in The Gospel was to the circumcision, i.e., his Jewish brethren, while Paul's was to the Gentiles (like I...

That problem comes from many of them listening to preachers who preach Grace without Biblical instruction of what to do when we slip up and sin. This was one of the main reasons why Apostle John taught what he did in 1 John 1 about repentance to Christ Jesus for 'future sins'. There is no such...

He already has, and does, and only someone with a holier-than-thou attitude would be so naive to say what you are saying. Rom 3:23-24 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: KJV Let me...

The word in the NT Greek is 'sabbaton' which means sabbath, the SAME word from the Hebrew for the weekly sabbath day per the old covenant. What you are not understanding with what Apostle Paul said there, is that during this present time of the Church, we are not held to strict ritualistic...

Like I had said before brethren in Christ, claninja doesn't actually know what the Jeremiah 24 chapter is about regarding the 'parable of the fig tree.'
