    Mark of the Beast?

    Death is the punishment...death by fire, not life in fire.

    The Apostles Burden and Message

    hey!!!! No need to make a mountain out of a molehill. Understand the original question and address that :)

    Church Age

    The whole theory hinges on the interpretation of the word 'with' even though every other text describes the event as the dead being asleep and brought to life at the last trump when Jesus returns in the clouds and every eye will see him. Now, what do we do with the word 'with'? how is that to be...

    The Apostles Burden and Message

    Hey Joseph, wake up!..... the word 'burden' is used in the sense of what weighs on your heart not in the sense of oppression but in the sense of what gets your mojo going...what fires you up with enthusiasm.

    The Apostles Burden and Message

    Of what we read in the scriptures what do you suppose the burden of the Apostles was? What was it that they spoke of to their hearers? What was their primary thrust in all their letters? .....and, why should it be any different today?

    Church Age

    If they which sleep in Jesus [those who died] how can they be in heaven? When Lazarus died Jesus used the term 'asleep' for his condition, later qualifying it as 'dead'. Does that mean according to your understanding that Jesus called Lazarus back from Heaven? ....if so, Lazarus is strangely...

    The Mark of the Beast (what it really is explained)

    Christianity has become a scene as in a club of sorts...its got its own language, its own practices and its own no talk rule when it comes to addressing popular sins....these folk are identified as tares or foolish virgins or verdant trees without fruit...they look good to men but don't measure...

    The Mark of the Beast (what it really is explained)

    Could it be that many who consider themselves gathers and actually scatterers?

    Church Age

    Enoch....could you point me to the scriptures you find support the rapture and just to qualify what i think you mean by the rapture; the sudden and instantaneous vanishing of people from the face of the earth denoting the return of Jesus....is this correct?

    The Gaithers

    The Gaithers

    It draws me firstly, apart from the lyrics and her strong beautiful voice, it is not a performance and there is no paint and dye....whew, what a breath of fresh air that is!

    Reincarnation of Elijah

    Elijah challenged Ahab and the 400 odd priests who believed in their pagan deities with their reincarnation theories. Those guys engaged all the bizarre activity from morning till night which their beliefs encompassed, calling out and dancing around their altar even cutting their bodies till the...

    Mark of the Beast?

    Bobby Jo...I have two things to say; firstly, do you really think that by plastering scriptures all over the place is saying anything real??? Secondly; you read these words 'and some to shame and everlasting contempt.' through the lens of life in torment but if you read them through the lens of...

    Mark of the Beast?

    That is correct but an eternity in torment is not referenced. Death is the penalty of rebellion, not life in torment.

    Mark of the Beast?

    If we talk in terms of a loving God, eternity in hellfire has got to be spawned in the imagination of the devil. Even our pitiful sense of justice as humans would see that a lifetime of rebellion (lets say 80 yrs) does not warrant an eternity in torment.....an eternity....in torment....think of...

    Death Of The Sole ???

    Death is the end of the line. That's what death means. We are souls, we don't have them. When God created Adam he became a living soul....he didn't get one....he became one.

    Reincarnation of Elijah

    The scripture speaks nothing of past lives. This has come from the pagan arena.
