    Question on Jesus' Ministry timing

    Your last two paragraphs don't make sense!

    Why do the self taught preach an incomplete gospel?

    No. Because He was giving His teaching exclusively to unconverted Jews. The Pauline revelation is as much Jesus talking, because He worked closely with Paul during his three years seclusion in Arabia. In effect, Jesus gave him the same three years training He gave to the other Apostles...

    The Truth of Genesis

    Well, it seems that you ask a question, and when someone gives an answer, you just respond with another question, and this happens repeatedly. That's why people get frustrated with you.

    Not by works - but by faith

    If the Bible is God's sole communication with mankind (which it is), then putting faith in what God says about Himself in His Word is putting faith in the God of the Bible. If a person believes in a God apart from the Bible, then his god is just a god of his imagination. There is only one God...

    The Truth of Genesis

    About the same way that you know.

    Question on Jesus' Ministry timing

    That is the popular view of post-tribs. But it still doesn't provide a satisfactory answer to what Paul told the Thessalonians about being caught up and meeting the Lord in the air.

    Why do the self taught preach an incomplete gospel?

    Paul gave us the true and complete gospel in the Book of Galatians. Also in the Book of Romans.

    Question on Jesus' Ministry timing

    I looked up the context, and you could very well be right about that! :-)

    Question on Jesus' Ministry timing

    It is an established fact that a person deceived by false doctrine resorts to abusing those who disagree with him. Those who know that their doctrine is sound according to Scripture never feel the need to abuse and accuse others who have an alternate view.

    Why do the self taught preach an incomplete gospel?

    Did you know that the characteristic of those who hold to unsound doctrine tend to abuse others who don't agree with them?

    Question on Jesus' Ministry timing

    It is true that the prophecies that were fulfilled concerning Christ did have a timeline, but we can't calculate the 70 weeks of years in Daniel's prophecy according to our Gregorian calendar, which did not exist in his time. Also we have to calculate by the calendar that Daniel had available...

    Question on Jesus' Ministry timing

    Looks like you are stuck on your own view of all this, so there is no point me continuing the exchange with you. Bye.

    OSAS beginning ?

    Although the penalty and the power of sin is removed by the finished work of Christ on the cross, the presence of sin is still with us in our mortal flesh. This is why Paul says that he buffets the flesh to keep it subdued. And God leaves just enough guilt for sin to remind us of how easy it is...

    Question on Jesus' Ministry timing

    It seems that you have not done an in-depth comparative study of the Daniel prophecies and subsequent history. I have heard some excellent ministry on it which has shown how history has confirmed the prophecies right down to the last detail. Daniel could never have known how the prophecies he...

    A very informative analysis of these prophecies. You've certainly done your homework here! :)

    Question on Jesus' Ministry timing

    Here is a very good article that clarifies much about it: Was There Really A Census During the Time of Caesar Augustus?

    Not by works - but by faith

    Ok. I define my faith by the Book of Romans, and Galatians. The mystery of the gospel of Christ was hidden right up to the time when the risen, glorified Jesus revealed it to him, and through his writing, the mystery is no longer a mystery because it has been openly revealed through the Book...

    The Bible

    Any intelligent person reading the text of the Bible can understand it. Understanding is not the problem; believing what it says is the problem for many.
