Mary, Joseph, and the baby were not in the stable in Bethlehem all that time until Jesus was a toddler. He was circumcised after 8 days, we are not told where. After Mary's honoring of the law regarding her purification, 42 days, they took the child to Jerusalem and presented Him in the temple...

I don't know about you but I think He'll come when you're ready.

Getting away from spiders and scary stuff... No, not the scary stuff. The future can be scary. And one thing, no two things, I like to remind people about when discussing prophecy, particularly Revelation... A. The future is rife with deception. Even now, nothing is as it seems. Nothing. What...

There is a way to better understand Revelation. It isn't all chronological. And some passages have several applications, all of them true. For example. The 7 letters were literal letters for those specific churches in Asia Minor (Turkey) in the first century. But they also can be applied very...

KJV Matthew 13:30 30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

6 days Gary,6 days. Testified to by Moses in Genesis, testified to by Christ on Sinai. Repeated throughout the OT every Sabbath day as a memorial of creation... In 6 days. You cannot reconcile what you see through a telescope with what you read in scripture? Why do you have to? You said...
