I suppose you could always use a 4x2 plank with nails in it!

Interesting you should make this comment. The Sanctuary system, the complete enchilada, was for the purpose of giving the people a view into the plan of redemption i.e., what and why God is up to what he is up to. Too often it is dismissed as antiquated symbolism that has no relevance today when...

You're talking at cross purposes A D'A….and gobbledy gook at that.

The record tells us certain things occurred between Jesus and Satan after his fast. I do not doubt the record and I do not think it necessary to load it down with speculation as if this speculation was other than recorded.

Looking from the outside in, I get a view that those on the inside looking out miss…. Watching Trump from before he was elected it is clear that his integrity is questionable. He has no qualms with lying….he is ego driven….he oozes narcissism; this is evident to leaders around the world. There...

There are no doubt aspects of God which we cannot grasp but when it comes to holiness, what is necessary and able to grasp is revealed in Jesus. Trying to get a handle on holiness independent of Jesus as I see it, leaves the imagination to go skewed as is evident in 'religious' unveiling.

My reference was to Satan taking Jesus to a mountain or the pinnacle of the temple.

There is no mountain anywhere in the physical world from which you can see all the kingdoms of the world. The story is true, but it is about spiritual events and a spiritual mountain. Let us not be naive. Let's not underestimate the power of Satan.

Any rope will hold until it is tested. Under load its integrity or lack of it is manifest. In Eden our parents were tested…no doubt other worlds were tested also. The angels were tested; a third failed, how? through the means of deception. Scripture tells us that Jesus was the second Adam….a new...

He might have had a skin full.

I doubt whether one political system is better than the other. God's purposes know no haste or delay, they will be fulfilled whoever is in power politically.

Jesus had fasted 40 days…..he was emaciated to the extreme (let that register)…..there was no intention of aiding himself supernaturally; if there was he would have done it before emaciation. In this physically weakened state these temptation were laid on him. Do we think they were a piece of...

I'd be very careful here Giuliano. The statement 'sin of the world' can be plural meaning the sins of people…. The sin of Adam, the representative of all people. The curse (death) was a result of the sin…..the curse was not the sin itself. Oh how easy it is to ratchet the intent of the words...

Are the bibles received with interest?

hello HARK I'm always curious whether members are older/younger, male/female when its not in their profile. Will you leave us in suspense?

I understand our collateral to be of a nature greater and of more value than silver or gold….this is where all of scripture directs us. All other collateral will disappoint; it is perishing…..it consumes our energies, loads us with unnecessary burdens and divides our allegiances.

stock markets aint stock markets

Firstly, thanks to all who shared here….my heart is warmed and I feel I know you a little better. The excitement of becoming a young Christian had me saying things unconsidered. Time went by and the dawning awareness of having a limited view and knowledge made me ashamed of my presumption but...

You said it BJ….you don't feel like your shooting yourself in the foot?

If there is no thirst…...if there is no hunger……if there is not a sense of need its just a bunch of talk with no power.
