    Choice of doctrine is driven by religious preconception - Spirituality is an individualized journey

    The 'DOVE' is symbolic of the HOLY SPIRIT which completes the GOSPEL and the BRIDE. The BRIDE must be "bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh"...................."the Two become ONE and are no longer two." ALL THREE MUST BE or one is full of baloney.................

    the return of Jesus Christ .... I see two phases

    Correct = Most christians do not realize that John 14:18 was fulfilled and continuously is being fulfilled via the Holy Spirit and more..... Thus we have 'doctrines of men' forming denominations and the many divisions in Christianity.

    Would you surrender your own beliefs in the cause of doctrinal unity?

    Compromise is unavoidable ONLY because we have been compromised by SIN. TRUTH is not compromised. We are sanctified by His Truth = "Thy word is Truth" Therefore, the only compromise we make is to let go of that which FIRST compromised us! Hebrews 12:1 Therefore we also, since we are...

    Would you surrender your own beliefs in the cause of doctrinal unity?

    Doctrinal unity can be cause for compromise if the doctrine itself is compromised.

    What it does say in the OT is that God hid/burried the body of Moses.

    70th week began with the Coming of Messiah 4“Seventy weeks are determined For your people and for your holy city, To finish the transgression, To make an end of sins, To make reconciliation for iniquity, To bring in everlasting righteousness, To seal up vision and prophecy, And to anoint the...

    Will you be caught up in the rapture or left-behind??

    Those two daughters and their husbands died along with Lot's wife because they became acclimated to the world culture in which they lived. The same judgment will befall the same people living in and loving the world = 2 Thess ch2

    Will you be caught up in the rapture or left-behind??

    What was 'home' for Lot and his wife = vile perversions being committed daily, in public, in daylight and embraced by the entire citizens of Sodom & Gomorrah. Lot's wife's heart was attached to that which was condemned by God. Right now the same is taking place in cities around the world. The...

    the return of Jesus Christ .... I see two phases

    That is not the beginning of the 70th week. That is the beginning of the 7 year covenant of the Antichrist. The 70th week belongs to God. The "short time" belongs to the Antichrist.

    Would you surrender your own beliefs in the cause of doctrinal unity?

    Agree - Rev 22:18 is specific for Revelation HOWEVER Proverbs 30:5-6 is for the ENTIRE Scriptures NEVER make 'doctrinal purity/unity' a salvation issue = NEVER This does not diminish that the Representation of God is founded, grounded, eternally established in TRUTH. Let's examine this...

    Would you surrender your own beliefs in the cause of doctrinal unity?

    Good Question: "Do we need doctrinal unity?" That would be a straight-forward YES as we can see how this was demonstrated by the LORD in the Law, the Prophets, the Gospel, the Apostles writings and Revelation. Examples: a.) Law - Deuteronomy 4:1-2 Hear now, O Israel, the statutes and...

    Would you surrender your own beliefs in the cause of doctrinal unity?

    That depends on what each view declares in relation to the 'doctrine' being observed. pre-trib, mid-trib, post-trib = no unity, unless they all agree upon = "the day or hour no one knows but only My Father" the Word was God vs the Word was a god = zero unity Yet, many will agree that = "the...

    We’re the two witnesses from the past?

    Ziggy says: "Everything gives witness to the one that created everything." i say AMEN to that Dear Ziggy = we are SURROUNDED Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with...

    A question about the rapture

    @Timtofly said: "Nor can you find a single verse prior to Revelation 21 where the church comes to earth." SPOILER ALERT = Revelation chapter 19 Then I saw heaven standing open, and there before me was a white horse. And its rider is called Faithful and True. With righteousness He judges and...
