Great testimony to the grace of God. On another note, do we need to take extra care in reading your posts, guarding against any NLP residue?;)

So you're saying that because no-one listened to him, and because no-one even knew about him for so long, this counts against him despite the fact he was a preacher of righteousness for 120 years? And even though the ark is a type of Christ, the sacrifices Noah and his ancestors and his...

Nuclear today is far safer than it was 10 years ago, let alone 30. But there is that waste issue. Never heard of thorium. There is likely to be a great deal of technology around that is renewable, safe, and cheap. But that's the trouble eh. Cheap. No profits in cheap.

I'm interested in how Christians here are responding, and what you see is your first priority during these times when the world is confused and fearful at what is taking place.

It was mentioned previously about the serpent on a pole. And the reminder the pole had become an object of worship, in disregard of the actual message which was inherent in the lesson... God's saving grace. We are in a valley now and the serpent's are biting us. Lockdowns... Political strife...

In order to fulfill the purposes of God, Rome in that moment became a servant to the Jewish religious hierarchy. This will be repeated in these last days as the church takes over the political power and begins to persecute so called "heretics", just as papal Rome did in the 6 th century.

The tragic irony of life is that we can expect I believe, particularly in these last days, to be betrayed by our nearest and dearest. As with Cain and Abel, I believe the final battle will not be between unbelievers and the church... Or between gentiles and Israel, as many false prophets...

KJV Zechariah 13:6 6 And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.

Why not Noah?

Jesus voluntarily placed Himself as our High Priest and Sacrificial Lamb. Yes, He laid down His life but He didn't kill Himself. He "gave up the ghost, and died". Others were to a point culpable. Paul and Stephen correctly called the Jews murderers. The Romans themselves "knew not what they were...

However you may claim there is implicit teaching of the trinity, the truth is that any conclusion as to how the three members of the Godhead are united, as the creeds all so determinedly attempt to formulate, is still and will always be assumption.

When the early church became corrupted by departing from the simplicity of the gospel and accepting heathen rites and customs, she lost the Spirit and power of God; and in order to control the consciences of the people, she sought the support of the secular power. The result was the papacy, a...

The Romans weren't interested in an efficient death. They wanted to prolong the suffering for as long as possible... Hence their surprise at the death of Jesus on that same afternoon, which in a sense supports the OP, that the crucifixion did not kill Jesus... He offered His life a ransom for...

Let's find some context... KJV Exodus 15:23-26 23 And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah. 24 And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink? 25 And he cried unto the LORD; and...

Completely irrelevant on a couple of points, but particularly with regards the dietary recommendations of the OT. God promised Israel they would be protected from the diseases of Egypt, from which they had just been set free after 400 years of eating crocodiles, snakes, lizards, and birds of...

Don't be sidetracked by politics. Socialism, communism, black lives matter etc etc etc etc ad nauseum, aren't the most immediate or the most dangerous enemy. For America, and later the whole world, the danger lies in the opposite direction... Apostate protestantism having way to much influence...

It is a strange irony that Christians would dream of pouring water into their gas tank, believing the manufacturers instructions and natural law, that such materials don't mix and don't burn. However, they ignore the Manufacturers instructions and natural law by pouring poisons into their own...

I see two major problems with this. One, your hope is in a human sacrifice if it was but the death of a man. Two, you are denying the Father actually sent a Son. You are saying the Father sent someone who became a son? And this 'someone' was still connected to the trinitarian God? The divine...

Two things. A literal ontological Father/Son relationship in the Godhead. And the complete death and separation of Christ from His Father at Calvary. The Trinity allows for neither of the above. The Trinity first speaks of Co equal Co eternal beinfs, this denying the begotten concept. Second...

What you are both missing is that if what you are both saying is true, albeit differently, is that what transpired is nothing more than a human sacrifice. If divinity did not die on Calvary, there was no Atonement.
