Jezebel came later. That was the Babylonian mystery religion. The real Jezebel was a high priestess of that religion. Each country had their own goddess and godchild, like Venus and Cupid as one pairing. When paganism became outlawed, to help transition the pagans into the Church, they made a...

Unless you are a preterist I can't see the first seal having been opened yet - but soon. It is the revealing of the Antichrist and the beginning of the Great Tribulation.

We see the sin of the Nicolaitans differently. I associate it with 1 John 4:1-3. It was a Gnostic sect started by a man named Nicolas, and has nothing to do with taking the word apart to create "power over the laity."

What forum is your post on Nicolaitanism in so I can find it. I know about it as one of the Gnostic sub-categories. Matthew 24 shows the seals in order. This is the first seal as also described in Revelation 5. And 2 Thessalonians 2. 4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no...

I see the first seal is the revealing of the Antichrist. I don't know who he is, but I do believe he is living now.

Wow...

The one true church follows the Word of God. The RCC does not, so they lost their candlestick. But we still have the Word of God, so individuals who abide by the Word of God and do not waver are part of the one true Church. And "few there are that find it."

You avoided my question. Here it is again. Do you honestly believe the thinly veiled threat that unless we are a member of the RCC that we do not belong to the Church, the Body of Christ?

I know you are sincere, but I'm concerned. I've noticed that you only create posts that specifically exalt the Roman Catholic Church as if it is the RCC that saves you, and not Jesus Christ. Do you honestly believe the thinly veiled threat that unless we are a member of the RCC that we do not...

You get a gold star! Yes, it confirms an unbeliever in their unbelief by their reaction.

Welcome. 1 Corinthians 14:22. What type of sign to an unbeliever is tongues. Explain.

Romans 7:15-20 is not about someone who is born again. It is someone keeping the Law of Moses in the Old Covenant with their old sin nature. The next chapter introduces the Spirit, and being born again in the New Covenant, and is the culmination of the 8 chapter teaching on the Law. Once we...

It was only John who used the phrase in Revelation 1. Those earliest church fathers such as Justin Martyr that knew his teachings repeated the phrase and called it Sunday as was traditionally kept. And ever since then the Lord's Day is Sunday. The Jewish 7th day is the Sabbath. Some Christians...

Many have no room in their human reasoning for the supernatural power of God to recreate our carnal nature into a brand new nature completely separate from the old nature. It comes from a human reasoning that this cannot happen while in our bodies.

There is no way a human being can do this completely. Their carnal nature would always get in the way. There is a problem with your theory. You treat Perfection as an invisibility cloak over our true wickedness, making our wickedness blind to God, but visible to the world.

In the Old Covenant, because He knew we were weak because of the sinful carnal nature, He provided laws that a weak person could keep. Romans 8. They were basically the bottom line, but nothing a weak person couldn't accomplish in his flesh, though could not bring them up to actually being...

The sin is not being attracted to the same sex, the sin is acting on it. I suppose the same would be for someone who hates themselves wanting to die. The sin, again, would be acting on it.

I still don't understand. Do you have something against the KJV, or against Tyndale's contribution?

What makes you think the anger stopped? God doesn't change. In the Old Covenant, because He knew we were weak because of the carnal nature, He provided laws that a weak person could keep. Romans 8. They were basically the bottom line, but nothing a weak person couldn't accomplish in his flesh...

Yes, you don't trust that Tyndale didn't add his own words to sabotage the integrity of his final product.
