Hello Naomi25 Let me say at this time, I am pre-trib and dispensational. I don't have time this evening to answer your post as I should. I will get back in the morning and respond completley. And, you are not getting off track at all. Stranger

I only say it as many times as you ask. Asking over and over again won't change my answer. What 'accepted Biblical scholarship'? If you're talking about Romanist scholars, then yes I argue against them. When you say 'accepted', what you really mean is those you accept. Stranger

When you say this is not about you, I disagree. You plainly showed in the OP that it was about you. " I am such a one". I have not missed the point at all. I deny your explanation because it is flawed. Not because I don't understand it. To say Paul had no faith before the Damascus...

Yes it was. The Palestinian Jews never accepted the apocryphal books. How many times do you want me to say it. Stranger

My pre-conceived beliefs are based on my previous study. Thus until you or others are able to provide some new information which I haven't heard yet, then there is no reason for me to be educated by you or others. Thus far you haven't done that. So, yes, I just like you and everyone else...

Not so. The Jews of Palestine never accepted the apocryphal books as Scripture. Their Bible today is the same as the Protestant Old Testament. Protestants were not around to make that decision. Thus, as I said, you can't blame Luther for everything. Stranger

Yes, I know you want to educate me, but I reject your teaching. Which means you have not 'educated' anyone. You gave no examples of 'sacred tradition' in Scripture as described by the Roman church. The 'traditions' of (2Thess 2:15) are the very things Paul was preaching and teaching at...

Protestants played no role in the Hebrew Bible. Look at the Hebrew Bible today and tell me how many books are in it. You can't blame everything on Luther. Stranger

I never said that. I have said that faith is necessary from the beginning. And that if you didn't come to Christ by faith, you didn't come. Faith is not just for the long game. It is the very entrance. Faith brings with it knowledge of God. Because believing is a gift from God also. (Eph...

Understand, we do not agree. You have tried to say you and I agree. But, we do not agree, on this subject, and more than likely any other. You said before that God has not created America as a Godly nation, because I used it as an example of how at times it is necessary to separate from the...

I have prayed and will continue to pray for your friend. Stranger

One can misapply a Godly principle also. Usually done in two ways. 1.) A wrong interpretation of Scripture verses can only lead to wrong application of the verses. 2.) Having a correct interpretation of the verse but then misapplying it. So, misapplying a Scriptural principle is also a...

I would say first of all, that a time element or gap of time between verses or even words is common in Scripture. A good example is (Isaiah 61:1-2) "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me;...To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God;...." When Jesus...

Let me answer just one at a time as it is too long to address all. I will start with the first. I don't understand your statement concerning Daniel and Revelation. I believe the beasts in Daniel represented certain empires. But, I am not left to my own to believe that. We are told that in...

Indeed they are two different things. But they work together. (John 10:38) " But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe,...." (1John 5:13) "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye...

No the Palestinian Jews rejected and still do reject the Apocrypha. Their Old Testament is the same Old Testament of the Protestant Bible. Jerome rejected the Apocrypha as part of the canon. Quoting from the Old Testament is not the only criteria that played a role in a book being part of the...

Good verse concerning divorce and sex between a husband and a wife. Has nothing to do with a people dividing or being divided in order to be free from the wickedness of the world. Stranger

Give a list of the Roman traditions. The Palestinian Jews never accepted the Apocrypha as Scripture. Never. And there are no quotes in the Bible from the Apocrypha. I never said the Apocrypha didn't exist. It just wasn't part of Scripture. Stranger

I disagree with you. The believer, because he is a believer, knows. That is what drives him to God and Christ. If one comes to Christ, but doesn't really believe it, then he is not saved. That means the believer must know. Belief is all that is required,...but that is required. Not...

I do understand what God is actually doing. Do you? Division is of God. Always has been. For the purpose of protecting His people and curbing wickedness in the world. Who divided the earth? (Gen.10:25) Who brought about Babel to divide the people? And for what purpose? (Gen.11:1-9)...
