Culture and the various politically correct adjustments to traditions and sometimes legal restrictions imposed on society man's we simply need to adjust sometimes... Unless those "adjustments" tend toward unrighteousness. That said, when Jesus comes, I can say quite categorically that I would...

This was only a very short time after being a Jew hating Catholic priest.

Jesus said the greatest danger in these last days was deception. Reality isn't always aligned with belief. @bbyrd009 said here recently, don't always believe what you think. The leaders admit to being Marxist. And gay. And anti family. Mmm. "Mission statement" has become quite a thing they...

The Waldensians were not Cathars. And they were not apostate Catholics. They were never at any time under the authority of the bishop of Rome. They were from the beginning Bible believing Christians and their Bibles were copied from the peshitta ...the original Italic... Not Jerome's or...

Strange you should say that. Futurist apologists insert all imaginary gap to cover the 2000 years they believe should be there, then deny the actual prophetic Revelation of that same 2000 years in Daniel and Revelation as if God want aware it would take place. Strange contradiction. Ignore it...

I don't doubt the numbers... Well, maybe I do. Not sure. I think it more a reflection of the dumb mindset now so prevalent among younger Americans that accepts Marxist socialist philosophy as harmless and nothing to be feared. Oh, and the ignorance of the influence of people such as Soros etc al...

The inquisitions though were not directed solely at "apostate Christians". For example the Waldensian crusades and the inquisition at Goa among others. These people were Christians... They just didn't accept Papal authority. And I have serious reservations concerning the following... Once any...

What Americans need to do is roundly and utterly reject the Marxist inspired BLM group, and stand behind every black and colored person in their neighborhood. Racism doesn't get fixed by renovating the house... It gets fixed by a heart transplant. And it starts with me.

Well said, and if I might be so bold as to add something, that ratification... Confirmation if you will, took place 27ad. Nothing, absolutely nothing that the apostles taught, practiced, or wrote could change that covenant. And no-one else could change it or confirm it later either. Certainly...

In that I would totally agree, and I must confess it isn't often I agree with a Catholic... No offense. However...I would add a caveat... The idea or concept of religious freedom, something that existed in Europe but only in isolated individuals, was not to be found in the church, in fact...

What definition of preterism are you assuming applies to me when I specifically identified myself as historicist?

That wasn't a doctrinal dissertation.

If you are going to pull out verses 21 then verses 31-39 to make them fit your one character in the future, then what of the other verses in between? What's that about? You are a classic cherry picker...a little bit here and there to fit your narrative. That's not the way to study scripture and...

Bro, we are dirt. We are made from the earth, we were made to work in the earth, animated mud is all we are. Grubby is good.

Just looking at your pics... And forgive this kiwi from thinking this way, but are you sure you weren't sent here by the Lord of the rings?

No. The choice isn't between law and grace. It's between obedience or sin. Better righteousness or unrighteousness. Good and evil. How must I live? Then the choice is in how do I obey? Can I live a sanctified holy committed consecrated life in which I am truly loving God with all my heart...

The fault wasn't in the covenant itself, it was with the people with whom the covenant was made. So the new covenant was based on better promises. What was that better promise? Back to Hebrews... KJV Hebrews 8 10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those...

Yes. The fault was in their promise to obey Him in everything. God didn't ask them to promise anything. It's all by faith... Even then.

So, how do we explain this... KJV Hebrews 8 6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. If God's promises were faultless, then whose promises did he find fault with which necessitated...

KJV Hebrews 8 7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. ( Now remember, there is nothing wrong with God's promises, so the fault doesn't lie within the covenant itself, and Paul affirms this when he says....) 8 For finding fault with...
