Hello Mary, The very nature of a debate is to express your thoughts concerning a subject. If you disagree with a fellow forum member you can make that clear. What matters is the way in which you express it. If it is done respectfully, and with grace, then no offence will be caused, but if...

Well said, @GISMYS_7 1 Corinthians 6

Yes, @Ac28, Israel's prophetic clock has stopped during this interval. Thank you for the link, very interesting. In Christ Jesus Chris

'For I know that my (kinsman) redeemer liveth, and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:' (Job 19:25) Hello @Mayflower, I think of the fact that the Lord Jesus Christ became a man in order to redeem, taking on flesh and blood was necessary for Him to become our 'kinsman', and...

Thank you @Enoch111 and @Harvest 1874 for your responses. Another important reason for 'rightly dividing the Word of Truth' is that if we are uncertain about dispensational truth, we shall not be clear as to the gospel. Many feel that preaching the gospel is what they are called upon to do, but...

Dispensationalism is it Scriptural? * If we do not rightly divide the Word of truth, we are in danger of falsifying the gospel, and of misrepresenting the Lord. The false teachers who disturbed the Gentile believers with their words, 'Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye...

Dispensationalism is it Scriptural? Hello again, * The dispensation of law is in many respects in entire opposition to the principles that underlie the dispensation of grace. * Do and thou shalt live - is the condition of blessing under law. 'And it shall be our righteousness if we observe...

Dispensationalism is it Scriptural? Hello there, * I have not read through this thread, so forgive me if I am repeating what another has said. * 'A dispensation' (oikonomia) signifies the, 'act of administering', it occurs in Luke 16:2,3 and 4, and is translated, 'stewardship'. In 1...

Hello @VictoryinJesus, I thought you may like this, it is a quote from the appendix of my Bible, by Dr. E.W. Bullinger. -------------- "He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water." (Psalm 1:3) The simile in this verse tells us that the man who meditates in God's word is planted...

‘Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.’ (Gen 2:24) Hello there, * While reading this verse, my eyes alighted upon the words, 'leave', and 'cleave', and I thought how, in both the marriage relationship, and in the...

Hello @Jay Ross, Yes, I agree that the term, 'The Day of the Lord', refers to an indeterminate time period. I need to assure myself from the Word about the second Advent of Christ occurring at the end of the millennial age, but I believe you are correct concerning Armageddon occurring at the...

@Truth7t7 Hello there, With respect, you asked me the question, 'Charity do you find that all the chapters below, are describing the same event?' To which I answered, 'No, I don't think they do'. For the references you give, refer to different events which are to take place within the Lord's...

@Truth7t7 Hello there, No, I don't think they do. * Do you? * If so, why? In Christ Jesus Chris

@Jay Ross 'Shalom', to you too, Jay. It is my understanding that the Book of Revelation is set within the period covered by the term, 'The Day of the Lord', or as in Rev.1:10, 'The Lord's Day'. That 'Day' has yet to come, I believe. You appear to believe that we are living within it now. In...

Hello @Truth7t7, This is not true: for Dr. E.W. Bullinger (a well known scholar of the Word, rightly divided) in his 'Commentary on Revelation', where the study is verse by verse, directs the reader back to where the events in one chapter refer back to before another in a previous chapter. So...
