    [Question]Genesis 17:8

    I think they are both Joe. Rightly dividing would in this case be appropriate. For example, when Paul spoke about how things will transpire at the return of Jesus (1 Thess. 4:16-17, 1 Cor. 15:50-54) he was talking about a physical reality. The New Earth is also a physical reality.

    City of Seven Hills

    Babylon and Jerusalem are figurative for a counterfeit system/ understanding/ worship of God and a bone-fide understanding and worship, respectively. There is a bewitching in process that lulls people into false worship. People are called to come out of Babylon (a corrupted understanding of...

    'No Immortal Soul'? (Challenge)

    If the word 'ruin' is used for the purpose of ratcheting mortality around to immortality, one has embarked on the slippery slope of self deception. The word 'destroy' is clear. It is the end product of the pronouncement, 'you will surely die'

    A Day is Coming

    yes, they are not the enemies of the world as you said but they are likely to treat God's people as enemies. A substituted Jesus (one who underpins the bulk of mens theologies) is the one favoured by popular opinion, not the self sacrificing Jesus. The self sacrificing Jesus was murdered by...

    The Moral Law

    God is moral not legal. God gives up his place in the lifeboat for you not because of some law but because that his nature; it is moral. We keep God's Commandments because it is moral. Making God's Commandments a legal argument is like giving up your place in the lifeboat for another because...

    Go and read the account of the creation of Man; it is clear Adam became a living soul, he did not receive a soul.

    Why are they always trying to wipe out the Jews.
