The candlesticks are not explicitly explained as being two churches in Revelation 11 because it was already indicated what candlesticks represent in the book of Revelation back in Revelation 1:20. Why would that need to be spelled out again in Revelation 11 when it was already shown what...

Explain why you are saying that. Do you believe that mortal flesh and blood will inherit eternal life in the kingdom prepared since the foundation of the world when Jesus returns, as Jesus said the sheep (the righteous) will in Matthew 25:31-46?

You can't drop the subject because we're talking about whether or not Jesus rules over the earth. God has always ruled over the earth, so if you say Jesus is God then that means He rules over the earth since that is what God does. So, you either must believe He rules over the earth because...

According to him we're supposedly lacking in humility and grace because we don't sugarcoat heresy. Unbelievable. I guess he must be offended by the way Jesus talked to the Pharisees and scribes in Matthew 23?

Any objective person can clearly see that is the case. He is just blatant about it. As if no one can recognize what he's doing. He can't fool us. The scriptural evidence is overwhelming. The only way someone can deny these scriptures is if they just don't want to believe them.

Absolutely false. Jesus wasn't given all authority in heaven and earth only to have to wait to exercise it for at least 2,000 years. He works through the hearts of His followers and that has resulted in major changes in the world over the past almost 2,000 years and has resulted in "a great...

You do not acknowledge that because you do not acknowledge that He is omnipresent and all powerful, as God is. And you do not acknowledge that He currently reigns over all things, as God does. What does that even mean when you say "Jesus must be divine by nature to be God"? Define God. Who do...

You have no idea of what you're talking about. None whatsoever. He is one with the Father because He and the Father and the Holy Spirit are one God. Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called...

LOL. A better question is what didn't you ignore? John 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for...

You have only yourself to blame for your embarrassing posts that you've made in the last half hour or so.

That is a reference to the dead in Christ. They are only bodily asleep/dead. Their souls are alive and conscious. Soul sleep is a doctrine of demons. Paul made it clear that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord (2 Cor 5:6-8). Revelation 6:9 When he opened the fifth seal, I...

I already addressed this the first time you said it. I asked you to clarify what your point is here exactly. Why are you repeating yourself? You are coming across as if you have lost your mind.

Why are you just quoting one word from my post? Please address what I said instead of just ignoring what I said while promoting the false doctrine of soul sleep.

Why do you keep just quoting one word from people's posts? Also, you might want to think twice about aligning yourself with someone like him who denies the deity of Christ.

LOL. As if we have any reason to avoid answering any of your comments. We don't have any reason to do so. What is your point there exactly? I can't comment on it until you clarify what your point is.

You haven't shown that you deserve any respect with the way you blatantly twist scripture to make it say what you want it to say. This is a place where disagreement is expected and it should also be expected that if someone blatantly twists scripture, as you sometimes do, it will be called out...

Marilyn, there is no need to ask the same question 5 posts in a row. Once is enough.

LOL. That's very ironic coming from you. If you're not saying that Christ is not above all kings of the earth, then why would you deny that verse 5 is saying He is the prince (ruler) of all kings of the earth? Verse 6 does not point back to verse 5 as if believers are the only kings of the...

You are talking about Matthew 21:33-45, which talks about the Father going to a far country, but I think he was talking about Luke 19:12-27, which talks about Jesus going to a far country to receive His kingdom.

Have you not read all of the posts in this thread? I have made it clear that I see the two witnesses as symbolically representing the church, so, no, I don't think it could make John one of the two witnesses.
