    Is smoking a sin?

    As I stated Pearl, that is a teaching by Jesus. Obviously he stated it for a reason. If you do not know what is meant by it, it is not best to overlook it, rather research what it means.

    COVENANTS

    See the distinction, we say no man can see God and yet live. You disagree, simple as that Re.

    COVENANTS

    Straight from our Bible sir: (Matthew 24:37-39) . . .just as the days of Noah were, so the presence of the Son of man will be. 38 For as they were in those days before the Flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark...

    The 12 tribes of Israel: They be us.

    You are correct Bob, the 12 tribes listed in Rev are Christians of the new covenant. They have been bought out by the blood of the lamb from all nations Rev 5:9,10

    COVENANTS

    I did warn you sir, if you continue to make accusations about my faith, we have nothing to talk about. Unless you have a serious question, I will no longer respond to your posts. I will read them, and if there is a legitimate point I can clear up for you I will not respond.

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    Yes sir, but Tartarus is not a place, rather a judgment sir. We do not think those giants were nephilim, hybrid offspring of demons Curt.

    He is a Jew, He is not a Jew: the physical seed of promise

    Yes sir Robert we agree. There are of course still descendants of Jacob, Judah in full truth that still exist, however it is impossible to know who they are as the records were destroyed/lost at the destruction of Jerusalem. That is why we are very convinced that Jesus is the foretold Messiah...

    What is being pointed to in the following scfriptures?

    I think we can agree Jay that the Kingdom is not yet established here, and that not one of those persons who would not taste death are not here either. Unless the Bible was wrong, or an interpretation was in error, that event had to have been fulfilled in the first century. We do believe...

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    The sons of Anak were not hybrid offspring of demons Marks. But they like Goliath were a large people, spurning those spies to give the negative report to us. On a side point, Jehovah was so angry over this, that it was the last straw, He was going to exterminate them, however at the request of...

    Biggest mistake of the church and we need to go back

    No sir, we disagree. Thanks for your input Ron. I would recommend more research as it is imperative that one knows God at Jesus' return 2 Thes 1:6-9

    Is smoking a sin?

    Exactly sir! Jesus is the son of God. His firstborn in fact. Glad we finally agree. Nice that you posted the correction Jesus gave to those who were going to stone him, as many leave that out.

    Is smoking a sin?

    Yes sir, we do, and of course we are not God. He has delegated the judging to Jesus, and I hope you are right. I too see it as not a serious sin, although it definitely is a disregard for the sanctity of life, showing little respect for that gift that God gives. We believe it is condemned...

    The Second Coming of Christ...

    Demon possession and materialized angels taking wives is quite different Curt.

    What is the word of God?

    In this case the word was God's declaration to John. We do not know what exactly that declaration was, but John started his ministry at that time. Judging from his message and the prophecy about John in Isaiah 40:3; applied to him at Jn 1:23 it was likely that the message revealed Jesus as the...

    What is implied here

    Yes sir it is, the verse previous mentioned that all generations would pronounce her happy. There is no doubt in my mind that Mary was an exemplary servant of Jehovah. Out of the entire world of women, and even among the women of Jehovah's people, He chose her. Is there any doubt in your mind...

    Is smoking a sin?

    I understand, perhaps you are familiar with the verses of the faithful and wise servant in Mat 24. God has always given us representation from the time we became His nation. No doubt you recognize Moses as being the Chief shepherd over God's people at that time. What Moses said went Pearl. The...

    What is the word of God?

    Depends of course on how it is used. Jesus is referred to as the Word at John 1:1 which in this case he is being referred to as God's spokesman. If you simply say the Word of God, likely most people would think of the Bible, as it contains God's words to humans. That is the amazing thing...

    My Father

    Hi soulman, Many people misunderstand John 10:30 where Jesus stated I and my Father are one. What do you understand it to mean Mike?

    He is a Jew, He is not a Jew: the physical seed of promise

    Those of the new covenant, are spiritual Israelites Bob, called the Israel of God at Gal 6:16. Not all of them are natural Jews born into the sons of Jacob, but God has selected them from all tribes, tongues, peoples, and nations Rev 5:9. They are bought out from among mankind for a particular...
