The last plagues could well be man made. Weapons of warfare gone haywire it maybe a grand conflagration as a result of war. Of the image to the best can call down fire from heaven in the sought of men masquerading the holy Spirit, what else can be done?

It would be interesting to see and hear the real life conversations of your own children in class in public schools that have questionnaires like the one below... Had been confirmed that this particular one was presented to year 12 health class students at Takapuna Grammar School, Auckland NZ.

Someone spends their entire lifetime despising the idea of God... Utterly rejecting the concept of right living by love... Hating every suggestion of mercy, grace, or truth. They have no time whatsoever for Christians. A conversation with one makes them so uncomfortable, they almost throw up...

Thor?

Why do you infer that the destruction of the wicked isn't done out of love? The opposite of love is selfishness. God's destruction of sinners isn't selfish, He's protecting the eternal security of the universe for our sake, because we are the ones who will ultimately suffer if transgression...

When Jesus came and entered into His ministry, many, including His own disciples, came to the realisation that Jesus was the true Messiah. Prophecies in the OT promised that the Messiah would once again sit on the throne of David, and ask Israel's enemies overcome. Their problems solved, and...

There's a common idea running through the church at present, particularly in America where religion is so politicised, that Christians are being persecuted simply by the presence of democrats in the house. I have little sympathy for those who feel they are being persecuted/victimised because...

Well, not directly perhaps, but I think it is obvious that the reason would be there was nothing to eat apart from what was on the ark. Everything on the earth was destroyed, and is today coal and oil. There would have been seed, but that would have taken time to grow. That bird that plucked off...

Welcome to the forum. I think I get where you are coming from...a relationship with and knowledge of God is as Jesus said, eternal life. God is paramount. Who He is, what He is like, and how He is motivated towards sinful humans such as we all are. Doctrine...aka truth.. that being the...

It is mind-blowing when one considers all the influences, the circumstances, the people we meet, the choices we make, the events we attend or stay away from, the conversations we have, and then all the things that contributed to those things transpiring, that through it all and despite all...

In a republic, am official set of fundamental laws, like the US constitution and bill of rights, prohibits the government from limiting or taking away certain 'inalienable' rights of the people. In a pure democracy, the majority had almost unlimited power over the minority. "Congress shall make...

Mmm. So you agree that control of the people was foremost in the political mind. Most governments of that period, if not all, were monarchical. For you however to suggest that in mediaeval Europe those monarchs weren't manipulated, controlled, influenced, coerced, intimidated, or otherwise at...

Yes, Paul did differentiate between the annual feast days and weekly Sabbath. When mentioning the Sabbaths, he qualified them by calling them shadows. "The Sabbaths which are shadows"... Thus excluding the Sabbaths which were not shadows. Jane, exactly. Many of the "church fathers" had been...

Hi. One could mention that the particular symbol you speak of is more in line with the occult than Judaism, and yes, certainly not Christianity, but perhaps more in keeping with being appropriated into Catholicism, like so much other occult practises.

Peter explained to the other apostles what the vision meant, and it had nothing to do with food. Peter explained to Cornelius KJV Acts 10:26-29 26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man. 27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together. 28...

True, I will finish here... Quote....The worst kind of oppression was when religious men used the state to enforce ecclesiastical law. There have been times in history... When the Catholic church between the 4th and 6th centuries attempted to establish a man inspired theocracy. Moses was God's...

The worst kind of oppression was when religious men used the state to enforce ecclesiastical law. There have been times in history... When the Catholic church No wonder people believe so much nonsense. You take amigos word for what took place without investigating for yourself?

KJV Daniel 8:13-14 13 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? 14 And he said...

All I can say of those who believe scripture is telling them that God tortures sinners for all eternity without any end, without mercy, compassion, or any reference to true justice, do not know God as well as they should. God said the washers of sin is death. From that death, the second death...

Yep, the lake of fire burns everyone and everything up. To ashes. To the point where nothing exists, eventually not even a memory... That includes Satan. KJV Ezekiel 28:16-19 16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore...
