The issue of the OP was with the unbelieving partner, either wife or husband, being said to be 'sanctified' by being joined in marriage to a believer. Also that the children of this unequal relationship were to be considered, 'holy', because they had a believing parent. I believe now that...

@Miss Hepburn I can still lie under the stars and delight myself in the God and Father of ourLord Jesus Christ, Who has so closely identified us with Christ Jesus our risen Lord, that we are where He is, at God's right hand in the heavenlies, in Him, in spirit, NOW. I can therefore look at the...

@amadeus @Miss Hepburn Thank you Amadeus. In the Church which is His Body, where distinctions of race no longer apply, we are of one mind and purpose with our Head, Christ Jesus, our risen Lord. We are one with Him and He is our desire. I have never questioned the application of Psalm 37:4...

No thank you, G101

OK, I can see that this is not going anywhere, @101G. All I am going to get are accusations, either of not believing the Scriptures, or of something else, so I wil say goodbye to you. In Christ Jesus charity

Hello @101G, Of course I believe the Scriptures, I just don't subscribe to your interpretation of them. The two witnesses of Revelation 11, will die a martyrs death, and will be raised to life again (Rev. 11:7,11). The word translated witness is 'martus' meaning martyr. Our Lord, and John the...

Hello @101G, In Malachi 3:1 that you quote, it says, Behold, I will send My messenger, and he shall prepare the way before Me: and the Lord, Whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to His temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, He shall come, saith the Lord of...

Hello @101G, Thank you for providing from Scripture your reasons for believing that the two witnesses of Revelation 11:3-4 are John the Baptist, and our Lord Jesus Christ Himself. Malachi (3:4) speaks of Elijah as coming to restore all things, and the Lord Himself endorses this in Matt 11:14 &...

Psalm 37:4 Yes, M.H, especially as there is a promise attached - 'He shall give Thee the desires of thine heart' :)

With respect @101G, How can the Lord Jesus Christ be one of the two witnesses, and also 'The Coming One', Who was the subject of that witness, and the power of it In Christ Jesus charity

Hello @M.H. I don't know how justified we are in taking verses like this and applying them to ourselves. For this verse is part of a psalm with a context which is not related to the Church, but to Israel, and their Messiah. In Christ Jesus Chris

In Zechariah 4, the two Olive trees are explained as denoting Zerubbabel the Prince, and Jeshua the High Priest: and when it says in Revelation 11:4, 'These (two witnesses) ARE the two Olive trees' etc., This is the Holy Spirit's own explanation of these two witnesses. For just as Zerubbabel...

'And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.' (Rev 11:3-4) And the angel that talked with me came again, and...

Hello there, You have said that you do not want an answer from your readers, but ask that we spend time contemplating this glorious little verse. 'Delight thyself also in the LORD; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart.' (Psa 37:4) So I will. x First of all I will look at the...

Hello twinc, The Scriptures are our source of knowledge, and on this they are silent, so we should be too. Conjecture is not a good thing, for it can lead to error. In Christ Jesus charity

'The LORD reigneth, He is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith He hath girded Himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved. (Psa.93:1) Hello again, This psalm begins and ends with the attributes of Jehovah, 'The Lord Reigneth', 'He is...

'The LORD reigneth, He is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith He hath girded Himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved. (Psa.93:1) Hello Clark, That is encouraging to see, isn't it? In this day and age, with talk of global warming and...

@bbyrd009 reply#208 @Miss Hepburn reply#216 Thank you for your responses. I am not finding them easy to understand: for your form of expression is new to me, as are your thoughts. I therefore find myself unable to respond adequately. However what I can say is that I believe that the...

. @bbyrd009 @Miss Hepburn Please explain to me why you believe that the sacrifice of Christ was unnecessary?
